【福建师大附中2013模拟】A On August 16, 1977, Elvis Presley saved me.’ The previous afternoon, I played with my six-year-old peers in Heather Petersbackyard.I was enjoying my cake, when Heather asked me where my sleeping bag was.Only then did I know this party was a sleepover.The word “sleep-over” to a six-year-old bed-wetter is like what “cancer” means to an adult.But what if I told them I was a bed-wetter? At least with cancer, people gather at your bedside instead of running from it.I thought of a way to escape.I would explain that I needed my mother's permission to spend the nights.But as I called my Mom, Heather stood beside me to listen.She granted permission!Then I would be sleeping in the same living room as the other girls.I didn't bring my own pajamas(睡衣)，so Mrs.Peters offered me Heather's pajamas.As the other girls drifted into their sweet dreams, I tried to stay awake.“Do I need to go again? I'll stay up to go one more time...”.Of course , I finally fell asleep.The next morning , I was the first to wake up.I was warm!I lay in panic for what seemed like hours before the other girls started to wake up.I did the only thing I could do — I pretended that the bed-wetting didn't happen.I got up, took off Heather's pajamas and changed into my clothes like the other girls.Mrs.Peters walked into the room, and before she could say anything, she stepped right onto the pile of my wet pajamas.My heart stopped as I watched her face burn red.“WHO DID THIS?” She screamed, with a look so frightening.Should I answer? And that was when it happened — Mr.Peters came in and grabbed his wife , ‘‘Elvis Presley died!”

（一）.[2012·课标全国卷]

About twenty of us had been fortunate enough to receive invitations to a film­studio(影棚)to take part in a crowd­scene.Although our “act” would last only for a short time, we could see quite a number of interesting things.We all stood at the far end of the studio as workmen prepared the scene, setting up trees at the edge of a winding path.Very soon, bright lights were turned on and the big movie­camera was wheeled into position.The director shouted something to the camera operator and then went to speak to the two famous actors nearby.Since it was hot in the studio, it came as a surprise to us to see one of the actors put on a heavy overcoat and start walking along the path.A big fan began blowing tiny white feathers down on him, and soon the trees were covered in “snow”.Two more fans were turned on, and a “strong wind” blew through the trees.The picture looked

so real that it made us feel cold.The next scene was a complete contrast(对比).The way it was filmed was quite unusual.Pictures taken on an island in the Pacific were shown on a glass screen.An actor and actress stood in front of the scene so that they looked as if they were at the water's edge on an island.By a simple trick like this, palm trees, sandy beaches, and blue, clear skies had been brought into the studio!

Since it was our turn next, we were left wondering what scene would be prepared for us.For a full three minutes in our lives we would be experiencing the excitement of being film “stars”！

36.Who is the author?

A.A cameraman.B.A film director.C.A crowd­scene actor.D.A workman for scene setting.37.What made the author feel cold?

A.The heavy snowfall.B.The man­made scene.C.The low temperature.D.The film being shown.38.What would happen in the “three minutes” mentioned in the last paragraph?

A.A new scene would be filmed.B.More stars would act in the film.C.The author would leave the studio.D.The next scene would be prepared.【要点综述】本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述自己作为群众演员的一次经历。

36.C 细节理解题。根据文章中的第一段“About twenty of us had been fortunate enough to receive invitations to a film­studio(影棚)to take part in a crowd­scene.Although our ‘act’ would last only for a short time, we could see quite a number of interesting things.”可知作者是群众演员。所以C正确。

37.B 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“A big fan began blowing tiny white feathers down on him, and soon the trees were covered in ‘snow’.Two more fans were turned on, and a ‘strong wind’ blew through the trees.The picture looked so real that it made us feel cold.”可知这里的picture即是the man­made scene。

38.A 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“For a full three minutes in our lives we would be experiencing the excitement of being film ‘stars’！”可知A正确。

When a child is told he is “uncool”, it can be very painful.He may say he doesn't care, and even act in ways that are opposite of cool on purpose.But ultimately, these are simply ways to handle sadness by pretending it's not there.Helping a child feel better in school had to be careful.If you say, “Why are you worried about what other children think about you? It doesn't matter!” children

know that it does matter.Instead, an active way may be best.You could say, “I'm going to do a couple of things for you to help you feel better in school.”

If a boy is having trouble making friends, the teacher can help him.The teacher can arrange things so that he has chances to use his abilities to contribute to class projects.This is how the other children learn how to value his good qualities and to like him.A teacher can also raise a child's popularity in the group by showing that he values that child.It even helps to put him in a seat next to a very popular child, or let him be a partner with that child in activities, etc.There are things that parents can do at home, too.Be friendly when your child brings others home to play.Encourage him to invite friends to meals and then serve the dishes they consider “super”.When you plan trips, picnics, movies, and other shows, invite another child with whom your child wants to be friends.What you can do is to give him a chance to join a group that may be shutting him out.Then, if he has good qualities, he can start to build real friendship of his own.67.A child who has been informed of being “uncool” may ________.A.care nothing about itB.develop a sense of anger

C.do something uncool purposelyD.pretend to get hurt very much

68.A teacher can help an unpopular child by ________.A.seeing the child as the teacher's favourite

Zoe Chambers was a successful PR(Public Relations)consultant and life was going well-she had a great job, a beautiful flat and a busy social life in London.Then one evening in June last year, she received a text message telling her she was out of work.“The first two weeks were the most difficult to live through,” she said.“After everything I’d done for the company, they dismissed me by text!I was so angry and I just didn’t feel like looking for another job.I hated everything about the city and my life.”

阅读下列材料，按要求完成读写任务

Like many of my generation，I have a weakness for hero worship.At some point，however，we all begin to question our heroes and our need for them.This leads us to ask：What is a hero?

Despite immense differences in cultures，heroes around the world generally share a number of characteristics that instruct and inspire people.A hero does something worth talking about.A hero has a story of adventure to tell and a community who will listen.But a hero goes beyond mere fame.Heroes serve powers or principles larger than themselves.Like high­voltage(电压)transformers，heroes take the energy of higher powers and step it down so that it can be used by ordinary people.The hero lives a life worthy of imitation.Those who imitate a genuine hero experience life with new depth，enthusiasm，and meaning.A sure test for would­be heroes is what or whom do they serve? What are they willing to live and die for? If the answer or evidence suggests they serve only their own fame，they may be famous persons but not heroes.Madonna and Michael Jackson are famous，but who would claim that their fans find life more abundant?

Heroes are catalysts(催化剂)for change.They have a vision from the mountain top.They have the skill and the charm to move the masses.They create new possibilities.Without Gandhi，India might still be part of the British Empire.Without Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King，Jr.，we might still have segregated(隔离的)buses，restaurants，and parks.It may be possible for large­scale change to occur without leaders with magnetic personalities，but the pace of change would be slow，the vision uncertain，and the committee meetings endless.Ⅰ.根据短文，写一篇30词左右的摘要

I was blind, but I was ashamed of it if it was known.I refused to use a white

stick and hated asking for help.After all, I was a teenage girl, and I couldn't bear people to look at me and think I was not like them.I must have been a terrible danger on the roads.Coming across me wandering through the traffic, motorists probably would have to step rapidly on their brakes.Apart from that, there were all sorts of disasters that used to occur on the way to and from work.One evening, I got off the bus about halfway home where I had to change buses, and as usual I ran into something.“I’m awfully sorry，”I said and stepped forward only to run into it again.When it happened a third time, I realized I had been apologizing to a lamppost.This was just one of the stupid things that constantly happened to me.So I carried on and found the bus stop, which was a request stop, where the bus wouldn't stop unless passengers wanted to get on or off.No one else was there and I had to try to guess if the bus had arrived.Generally in this situation, because I hated showing I was blind by asking for help, I tried to guess at the sound.Sometimes I would stop a big lorry and stand there feeling stupid as it drew away.In the end, I usually managed to swallow my pride and ask someone at the stop for help.But on this particular evening no one joined me at the stop;it seemed that everyone had suddenly decided not to travel by bus.Of course I heard plenty of buses pass, or I thought I did.But because I had given up stopping them for fear of making a fool of myself, I let them all go by.I stood there alone for half an hour without stopping one.Then I gaveup.I decided to walk on to the next stop.36.Thegirl refused to ask for help because she thought ________.A．she might be recognized

C．to find the bus by herself there

D．to find people more helpful there

Car crashes are the top killer of American teenagers．Most of the crashes result from distracted driving not paying attention to the road．

Ryan Didone was a fifteen-year-old passenger in a car that hit a tree．He was one of the nation's more than thirty thousand victims of traffic crashes in 2008．Nearly four thousand deaths, about twelve percent, involved drivers aged fifteen to twenty．Ryan's father, Thomas Didone, is a police captain in Montgomery County, Maryland．He said, “It was an inexperienced,” immature driver who felt that he was invincible(不可战胜的), driving at night with a carload of kids．He was distracted, he was going too fast, and it ended up causing one death and some upsetting experiences and tragedy for the rest of the community.“ Jim Jennings from the Allstate Insurance Company said ”The number one cause of distracted-driving accidents is the mobile phone．Talking on the phone or reaching for it is like drinking four beers and driving．If you're texting while driving, you are twenty-three times more likely to get into an accident than somebody who isn't．

Reaching for a cell phone when it's going off, you're nine times more likely to get into an accident than normally driving,“ The insurance industry recently held a safety event near Washington for teen drivers．

At first, nineteen-year-old Kevin．Schumann easily avoided large, inflatable dolls thrown in front of the car to represent children．He also avoided orange cones representing the edge of the road．Then, as part of the test,he started texting.He hit several cones and at least one doll．

Debbie Pickford from the Allstate Insurance Company said, ”Teens are especially at risk from distracted driving—and not just because they lack experience on the roads．What we know from research on teen brain development, is that teens don't really have fully developed brains until they are twenty-five years old.You put those two things together and you get a much, much higher risk.16．We can learn from the second paragraph that _ _．

A．drivers who resulted in nearly 4,000 deaths are teenagers B．over 30,000 victims have died from traffic crashes so far C．it was at night that Ryan Didone died from a car accident D．Ryan Didone's death was due to the other 's careless driving 17．According to the passage, __ is the most likely to lead to a traffic accident while you are driving．

A．reaching for a cell phone． B．texting on the mobile phone C．talking on the mobile phone D．bringing along a cell phone 18．A safety event held by insurance industry was meant to _ _.A．attract more teenagers to take part in it B．make more teenagers practice avoiding large barriers C．draw encough attention to teenagers' distracted driving D．encourage more teenagers to pay for insurance protection 19．The passage is probably followed by a concluding paragraph about ___．

A．much higher risk C．experience on the roads

B．measures to be taken D．teen brain development 20.Of all the following, which is the best title for the passage? A.Car Crashes —the Top Killer.Enough！

Washington: A research conducted at the University of Maryland looks at the numerous complex reasons as to why young children decide to include or exclude(排斥)other kids from their group of friends.It suggests that the kids' decision-making process is much more complex than previously believed.“They take into account group information, ranging from cliques(小圈子)and networks, when deciding what makes a group work well.Sometimes kids are excluded because they lack social skills, but a lot of time it has nothing to do with that.Instead it has to do with what we refer to as 'group membership' such as gender, race, nation, and culture,” says Professor Melanie Killen, the Associate Director of the Centre for Children Relationships and Culture at Maryland, who led the 4-year project.Reporting their findings in the journal, the researcher said whatever was the reason, individuals who experienced long-term exclusion(排斥)from the group of friends suffered from depression, anxiety and loneliness.The study looked at two models to define how children make decisions regarding acceptance of other kids in their group--the individual social deficit model and the inter-group social cognition(认同)model.While the former says that children's rejection occurs due to social deficits like shyness, wariness or fearfulness, the latter says that it happens because of group dynamics, prejudice and exclusion.It was also found that the age of children was also a factor that influenced their decisions regarding other kids' acceptance as friends.“With age, kids become more aware of group dynamics, conventions, customs, and rituals.With this comes a greater concern about group functioning, which can lead to exclusion which can be negative from a social justice viewpoint,” says Killen.The researcher believes that her study may have many benefits, as it could provide insights into how to help when children are rejected by their peers.9.While making friends, kids think more about the following EXCEPT ______.A.social skills B.culture C.race D.gender 10.The underlined word “deficit” in Paragraph 5 may mean “_______”.A.skill B.relationship C.weakness D.experience 11.One of the major purposes of the research is to _______.A.tell the reader how to tell inclusion from exclusion B.remind children to be careful while making friends C.seek ways to help kids excluded by their peers D.stop the children belonging to the inter-group social cognition model 12.While making friends, children exclude those of social deficit model to _______.A.keep their groups purer B.make their groups more socially powerful C.refuse other customs and cultures D.prove their groups to be strict 13.The proper title for this passage is _______.A.Techniques of making friends B.Social communication among kids C.Making friends--a special culture D.Kids' complex way of making friends

2014高考英语阅读理解抓分练习题（30）及答案

Do you know what really troubles me? For some reason, words with silent letters have always bothered me．For example, consider these words: know, design, island, school, wrist, naughty, and salmon．All of these words have at least one letter that is not typically pronounced, and these words are just a very small part of words with silent letters in them． Some words are even worse, consider this word: colonel．Not only are some letters not pronounced, but letters that are not even there are pronounced． Even foreign languages, especially French, are guilty of this needless complexity and confusion．I know there must be some main historical reasons why the words are spelled and pronounced the way they are, but that does not mean bad traditions must continue to survive．Especially if they are no longer logical． Unfortunately, there is very little that anyone can do for it, because there’s no group of people who can change or have the right to change the English language for everyone．However, the only thing we can do is make changes in the way we talk and write in hopes that it catches on．For example, I pronounce the letter “l” in salmon on purpose to make people annoyed and to sound more different or complicated．I even pronounce colonel the correct or French way． I can only hope these two minor changes to the English language make sense to you, and you will help to keep up these minor changes forever in your everyday life． 67．We can learn from the passage ________．

A．colonel is pronounced B．salmon is pronounced C．all the words with silent letters come from French D．linguists will solve the problem of dumb letters 68．Which of the following is the main reason for silent letters? A．French language． C．Some linguists

B．Historical reasons． D．Bad traditions．

69．The underlined phrase “catches on” probably means “________”．

A．becomes popular C．follows the fashions

B．gets across

D．doesn’t fall behind

70．Which of the following is the best title for this passage? A．Troubles in everyday life words C．Words with silent letters changes of languages

A Grandma celebrated her fifty-third birthday just weeks before grandpa died of cancer in 1965.Although his passing was very difficult for her, I think their shared struggle to make his life longer taught grandma that good health was not to be taken forgranted, and she made up her mind to live the rest of her own life as fully and as long as she could.One day, when she announced to attend lessons at the Fred Astaire Dance Studio in Portland, Oregon, where she lived, we rolled our eyes in embarrassment and helplessly wished she would just stay home and bake cookies as normal grandmothers did.Many years filled with countless dance lessons passed before we learned to appreciate the wonder of having a dancing grandma.I suppose grandma's primary motivation for wanting to learn to dance was social.She had been a shy girl, always very tall and heavy, and had married into grandpa's

答案：B

When I was growing up, I had an old neighbor named Doctor Gibbs.He didn't look like any doctor I'd ever known.He never yelled at us for playing in his yard, but was always very kind.When Doctor Gibbs wasn't saving lives, he was planting trees.He had some interesting theories about planting trees.He believed in the principle: “No pain, no gain”.He hardly watered his new trees, an attitude which flew in the face of conventional wisdom.Once I asked why and he told me that watering plants spoiled them because it made them grow weaker.He said you had to make things tough for the trees so that only the strongest could survive.He talked about how watering trees made them develop shallow roots and how, if they were not watered, trees would grow deep roots in search of water.So, instead of watering his trees every morning, he'd beat them with a rolled-up newspaper.I asked him why he did that, and he said it was to get the tree's attention.Doctor Gibbs died a couple of years after I left home.Every now and then, I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I'd watched him plant some 25 years ago.They were tall and strong.I planted a couple of trees myself a few years ago.Two years of attending these trees meant they grew up weak.Whenever a cold wind blew, their branches trembled.Adversity seemed to benefit Doctor Gibb's trees in ways comfort and ease never could.Every night before I go to bed, I check on my two sons.I often pray that their lives will be easy.But lately I've been thinking that it's time to change my prayer.I know my children are going to encounter hardship.There's always a cold wind blowing somewhere.What we need to do is to pray for deep roots, so when the rains fall and the winds blow, we won't be torn apart.31.With the trees planted, Doctor Gibbs often______.A.paid little attention to them B.talked to them to get their attention C.kept watering them every morning D.beat them to make them grow deep roots 【答案】A

【解析】细节理解题。根据He hardly watered his new trees,他没有给树浇过水，也就是他没有关注过它们。故选A。

32.What does the author think of the way Doctor Gibbs planted trees? A.Original and reasonable.B.Strange and harmful.C.Interesting and funny.D.Cruel and unacceptable.【答案】A

【解析】细节理解题。根据I walked by his house and looked at the trees that I'd watched him plant some 25 years ago.They were tall and strong.因为Doctor Gibbs种的树长的又高又粗壮，所以可推测作者认为他的做法是新颖和合理的，故选A。

33.What does the underlined word “Adversity” mean in the seventh paragraph? A.Bad weather.B.Lack of moisture.C.Enough care or attention.D.Difficult living conditions.【答案】D

【解析】细节理解题。根据上文if they were not watered, trees would grow deep roots in search of water.可知比较难的条件，故选D。34.Which prayer does the author wish for his sons? A.Have an easy life, without too much to worry about.10-
