解析試題分析:這篇短文中,講述Neilson坐在車里吃午餐,遇到襲擊者劫車,報社員工抓劫車者并把疑犯交給警察的故事。
【小題1】考查動詞辨析把握動作發(fā)生的時間先后順序進行考慮:Neilson搖下車窗(rolling down the windows)、放進新鮮空氣(to let in fresh air)、仰坐在座位上(settled back)、吃午餐(to enjoy her lunch),同時注意短語動詞let in,可以從兩個單詞的意思猜出let in的含義(讓……進來)。bring in賺入,引進,send in提交,gather聚集。選C
【小題2】Neilson此時正在吃午餐,只可能是無意中看到(noticed)這個高個禿頂?shù)娜伺苓^來。recognize認出,watch仔細觀看,meet碰到。選B。
【小題3】她還沒意識到(realize)發(fā)生了什么,那個人就在她的車窗外大叫(shouting),叫她滾出來,understand理解,imagine想象,conclude斷定;選C,
【小題4】她當然拒絕(refused)。她的反應也可以從下句的描述(pulling, seized, threw)得到印證。escape逃跑,struggle搏斗,obey服從。選A。
【小題5】考查詞匯搭配,也可以說是英語中的一種常用表達方式,by與表示“抓、握、擒”的動詞搭配,seized her by the neck and hair的意思是“抓住她的脖子和頭發(fā)”。類似的結構還有:catch her by the neck/shoulder/arm, take me by the hand, take the knife by the handle, grab him by the collar等。選A。
【小題6】她尖叫的同時可能會試圖抓。╣rabbing)她的錢包和鑰匙。后面的信息(serching for the keys)也可印證這一猜測的合理性。bury掩埋,forget忘記,offer提供。選C
【小題7】兩位當?shù)貓笊绲挠浾撸˙ruce and Jackson),聽到尖叫聲,他們正在辦公大樓外干什么?只可能是上班間隙的休息(on a break),而其它三個選項(on a trip / visit / holiday)選D
【小題8】兩記者到達(reached)Neilson的車旁時,襲擊者(the attacker),也就是前面提到的禿頂人,已坐在車里找鑰匙了。start啟動,stop停止,enter進入,選B
【小題9】肯定想要馬上找到車鑰匙,急于把車開走,當然找沒找到鑰匙不得而知,故用madly(發(fā)瘋地)carefully仔細地,disppointedly失望地,patiently耐心地,選D
【小題10】,當記者打開車門把他拖出來的時候,襲擊者當然會抵抗(fought back)。turn back往回走,翻起,jump跳,shout呼喊;選A
【小題11】在極度驚慌中他也不是兩名身強體壯的記者的敵手(注意常用表達be no match for someone)。target靶子,目標,be the equal of與……相匹敵的,companion同伴。選B
【小題12】報社工人(Miller),聽到尖叫(heard),沖回辦公室(rushed back),給警察打電話(phone),拿著繩子跑回來(ran back)。此時的報社工人肯定不會提醒(remind)、邀請(invite)或者請求(beg)警察。而且,可以從下文的信息(waited for the police)得到印證。選A
【小題13】原先的禿頂人、襲擊者成了被抓住的囚犯,with his arms tied(手臂被綁)與the prisoner之間存在語義復現(xiàn),選C
【小題14】從他所說的話(“希望你們感覺不錯,因為你們抓住了一名頭號通緝犯!保┛梢酝茰y他現(xiàn)在的情感態(tài)度,經(jīng)過一陣驚慌之后,他說話的神情,冷言冷語(coldly),選D
【小題15】后文的信息(the carjacker and suspected murderer),他們沒有理睬罪犯(ignored)的話,只是在等候警察。catch抓住,thank感謝,comfort安慰。選B
【小題16】此處的邏緝關聯(lián)(因果關系)有助于我們準確理解合理推測。兩位記者感到震驚(shocked)是因為他們抓住的罪犯身份最終確定下來,是一名職業(yè)劫車者(professional)選D
【小題17】疑犯的照片(picture)正好最近刊登在他們的報紙上。選C
【小題18】連詞題。四個選項分別是表并列的and、表轉(zhuǎn)折的but / though、和表時間的when。此處作者強調(diào)的是Neilson感到幸運,注意句子中兩個動詞的時態(tài)(considers, suffered)也會給我們一此提示。選A
【小題19】沒有那些好心人的幫助,她的經(jīng)歷當然會有一個不同的(different)結果。ridiculous可笑的,荒謬的,similar相似的,strange陌生的,奇怪的。選B
【小題20】通過故事主人公Neilson的話,很多人可能從不(never)會在他人有難的時候伸手相助。另外,可以從同比排除的角度排除其它三個選項sometimes(有時)、often(經(jīng)常)、forever(永遠)。選D
考點:考查故事類短文
點評:完形填空題要求我們站在全局的高度來俯視問題,把握好整個語篇的上下文關系和邏輯聯(lián)系對于完形填空的解題至關重要。所以,我們首先用一兩分鐘時間帶空瀏覽短文1至2遍,理解短文大意,獲取重要的信息點,

Most American colleges and universities take a spring break. Students might go home to their families -- or spend a week partying on a warm beach with no parents around. That is the popular image, at least.
In the United States, the lawful age to drink alcohol is twenty-one -- one of the highest in the world. Americans debate whether it should be lowered, or whether young drinkers would only drink more. In parts of Europe, the lawful drinking age for beer, and sometimes hard liquor, is sixteen. Yet France may raise the age limit for beer and wine sales to eighteen, the same as for hard liquor there.
Rules on alcohol differ from college to college in the United States. Many schools require all first-year students to take an alcohol prevention and education program, often given online. Some have a “zero tolerance” policy where alcohol is banned from all buildings. Parents are informed of violations and students may be suspended(停學).
At the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, permission is needed to serve alcohol at any event on campus. But alcohol is banned in first-year dorms---where most students are under twenty-one anyway.
Susan Davis, a university lawyer, says campus police and local police report underage drinking violations(違反)to the committee that decides punishments on a case by case basis. For example, the committee might suspend or expel(開除)a student. It might require an alcohol education program. Or it might just give a warning.
Jon Zug is a lawyer in Albemarle County, where the university is located. He says international students would face the same punishment as American citizens for underage drinking in Virginia. That includes a punishment of five hundred dollars or fifty hours of community service. But first law-breakers might be given a chance to complete an alcohol education program instead.
Schools have to report unlawful violations by international students to the Department of Homeland Security. International adviser Richard Tanson at the University of Virginia says even minor violations stay on a student’s permanent immigration record. He says international students should know that this can affect them in the future if they try to re-enter the United States.
1. What does the underlined phrase “by case basis” mean?
A. Depending on the seriousness of the case itself.
B. According to the report of the campus and local police.
C. Depending on the judgment of the committee.
D. According to the former cases in store.
2. To international students, which of the following may be intolerable once they have drinking violations?
A. A punishment of $500 or 50 hours of community service.
B. Being given a warning of being suspended or expelled.
C. Having the violations kept on their permanent immigration record.

科目:高中英語 來源:20102011山西晉中高三第三次全真模擬試題 題型:閱讀理解

One Sunday a few of us decided to take advantage of the first sunny day we’d have for ages to take a trip down to the coast to visit the penguins again. Last time I went down there was a couple of months ago and it was a dull cold day. Sunday couldn’t have been more different — clear skies and sunshine made it feel like summer, although it was still -25°C.

Six of us drove to the coast. It was the first time we’d been off the base on our own without our field assistant, so it had a slightly different feeling — more like a few friends going to the seaside than an Antarctic field trip! When we reached Windy Creek, we luckily caught sight of quite a few small flying seabirds, which are seldom seen there.

Once on the sea ice we found that some of the more curious penguins had wandered over from the main group to come and check us out. We’d been told that then they were nursing their chicks (剛孵出的幼雛) and they would be more careful and nervous than last time, but that didn’t seem to be the case. We walked across to the main group which were stretched for a couple of miles along the coast. We sat down for some sandwiches and soon found ourselves surrounded by many curious observers. Without any attackers on land, they were very brave and came within a meter of us to pose (擺姿勢) for photos.

Before heading back, we spent a few hours on the sea ice watching the penguins and their chicks, which had grown dramatically (明顯地) since our last visit. It was such a nice day.

1.

When did the trip most probably happen?

A. On a dull Sunday.             B. On a warm Sunday.

C. On a summer Sunday.         D. On a winter Sunday.

2.

 It can be inferred from the second paragraph that the six people _____.

A. felt a little nervous        

B. felt a little excited

C. were left all by themselves on their Antarctic base

D. got bored with staying with their field assistant

3.

What does the writer mean by saying “but that didn’t seem to be the case”?

A. They were told a lie.

B. A wrong decision was made.

C. The truth was the opposite.

D. They didn’t believe what they were told.

4.

 The six people did the following during the trip EXCEPT _____.

A. feed the penguins

B. take pictures of the penguins

C. enjoy watching flying seabirds

D. watch the young penguins
