B.Knowledgeable.C.Sociable. D.Energetic.解析A推理推斷題。由其次段"Nowthatmyanimalsareoldandweak...theyalsohatetobepickedup"可知，作者照看他的兔子時特別細(xì)心，考慮很周到，故A項正確。3.Whatisthemeaningoftheunderlinedsentenceinparagraph4？A.Animalsshouldbetreateddifferently.B.Animalsshouldn’tbejudgedonsomepurpose.C.Thevalueofanimalsshouldn’tbeignored.D.Humansshouldliveinharmonywithanimals.解析B推理推斷題。由第三段和第四段內(nèi)容可知，作者常常會被問到為什么養(yǎng)兔子或為什么不養(yǎng)狗或貓，他認(rèn)為這一問題常常示意工具價值，人們看待世界的方式大多建立在動物起到某一作用這一假設(shè)上，作者認(rèn)為這是不正確的。由此可以推知，畫線句表達(dá)的意思是人們不應(yīng)當(dāng)基于某種作用來評判動物，故選B。4.Whateffectdoesraisingrabbitshaveontheauthor？A.Hekeepsbeingtruetohimself.B.Hereflectsonhisinterestmoredeeply.C.Helearnstovalueothers’opinions.D.Herealizesthemeaningoflife.解析D推理推斷題。由最終一段"Afteralltheseyearswithmyrabbits...that’swhatlifeis"可知，養(yǎng)兔子的閱歷讓作者意識到努力才是生活的意義，故D項正確。B[2024安徽六安一中第三次月考]Asmychildhoodpassed，Ibegantorealizeoutsideofourregion，southernerswereoftendismissedasunculturedandignorant.IwasreadytoleavebehindmytinytowninWestTennessee，startinganewlifeandjumpingatbigchancesinsomefar-offcities.Inthatembarrassingspacebetween"teen"and"adult"，myaccentwasasymbolofeverythingIthoughtIhatedaboutmylifeintheruralSouth.Ifeareditwoulddisqualifymefrombeinganotedmagazinewriter.Iwouldhavetotalkless"country".SoIkilledapieceofmyself.I’mashamedofit，butI’mmoreashamedthatItriedtokillthatpartofsomeoneelse—changeEmily’saccent.ImetEmilyincollege.Shewasdeterminedtoworkforthestudentnewspaper，whichwaswhereIspentmostofmywakinghours，andwebecamefriends.She，unlikeme，acceptedherroots.Earlyinourfriendship，hermotheraskedwhereIwasfrom，assumingitwassomewhereupnorth.ThenIfeltmyeffortspaidoffandevenwantedtoignorethemistake.Emilyistwoyearsyoungerandshecaredaboutmyopinion.IadvisedhertobemorelikemeandhidehersignatureManchesteraccent.Istressedthatthroughoutourcollegeyears，oftenbymakingfunofhervowel（元音）sounds.ItoldmyselfIwashelpingherachieveherdreamofworkingasareporter.Now，Iseethatitwasactuallyaboutjustifyingmyhidingpartofmyself.GrandmaCarolynusedtotellme，"Girl，don’tforgetwhereyoucomefrom.Thebloodlineisimportantforfamiliesanddeserveshighregardnomatterwhatothersthinkofit—itformsthebaseofouridentity，andit’sthecontextforthestorieswetellthroughtime."NowItrulyunderstandthat.Manythingshavefadedfrommemory，butthissticksinmymindwithuncomfortableclarity.NowthatIamgrownandhavelefttheSouth，it’simportanttome.本文是記敘文。作者誕生在田納西州的鄉(xiāng)村地區(qū)，長大后，她意識到南方人留給外界的印象是愚昧無知，她想要離開家鄉(xiāng)。上高校后，作者努力改掉自己的南方腔調(diào)，并且試圖"訂正"摯友Emily的腔調(diào)。后來作者意識到要牢記并敬重自己的"根"?！驹~語積累】dismissv.不予考慮，摒棄，對……不屑一提；撤職jumpat迫不及待地接受，欣然接受disqualifyv.使不合格，使不適合notedadj.著名，著名justifyv.證明……正確（或正值、有理）；為……辯護(hù)bloodlinen.世系，血統(tǒng)clarityn.清晰，清晰，明確【熟詞生義】regard常用義：v.將……認(rèn)為，把……視為，看待文中義：n.敬重，敬重1.Whatmadetheauthorwanttoleaveherhometown？A.Herdislikeforheraccent.B.Herdreamofbecomingawriter.C.Appealofbigchancesincities.D.OutsideprejudiceagainsttheSouth.解析D微小環(huán)節(jié)理解題。由第一段中的"Asmychildhoodpassed...southernerswereoftendismissedasunculturedandignorant...startinganewlife"可知，作者長大后起先意識到，其他地方的人常常認(rèn)為南方人是沒有文化和無知的，這一偏見使作者想要離開她的家鄉(xiāng)，起先新的生活，故選D項。2.HowdidtheauthorfeelaboutthemistakeofEmily’smother？A.Upset. B.Pleased.C.Guilty. D.Surprised.解析B推理推斷題。由其次段中的"Earlyinourfriendship，hermotheraskedwhereIwasfrom，assumingitwassomewhereupnorth...mistake"可知，Emily的母親問作者來自哪里，她以為是北方的某個地方，這讓作者覺得自己的付出有了收獲，甚至想忽視這個誤會。再聯(lián)系上文提到的作者想要脫離家鄉(xiāng)，改掉自己的南方腔調(diào)可知，Emily的母親誤以為作者是北方人，這讓作者感到興奮，故選B項。3.WhyistheauthorashamedfortryingtochangeEmily’saccent？A.Shedidthattoproveherselfright.B.SheignoredEmily’sloveofheraccent.C.ThatfailedtohelpEmilybeareporter.D.ThatdidmoreharmthangoodtoEmily.解析A推理推斷題。結(jié)合第一段中的"butI’mmoreashamedthatItriedtokillthatpartofsomeoneelse—changeEmily’saccent"和第三段中的"ItoldmyselfIwashelping...Now，Iseethatitwasactuallyaboutjustifyingmyhidingpartofmyself"可知，作者之前說讓Emily改掉腔調(diào)是為了幫她實現(xiàn)當(dāng)記者的幻想，但事實上是為了證明她要改掉自己的腔調(diào)這一做法是對的，她為此感到慚愧，故選A項。4.WhatlessonhasCarolyntaughttheauthor？A.Toappreciatethebloodline.B.Torememberandrespectherroots.C.Topreserveherownidentity.D.Tocarelessaboutothers’opinions.解析B推理推斷題。由最終一段中的"don’tforgetwhereyoucomefrom...wetellthroughtime""NowItrulyunderstandthat...sticksinmymindwithuncomfortableclarity"可知，祖母告知作者不要遺忘自己來自哪里，血統(tǒng)對家庭很重要，無論別人怎么看，它都值得敬重。現(xiàn)在作者真正理解了這一點，并且牢記于心。由此可推斷，祖母教會了作者要記住并敬重自己的根。二、七選五[2024山東濟(jì)南學(xué)情檢測]Choice，wearegiventobelieve，isaright.Butforagoodmanypeople，choicegivesbirthtoanxiety.Interestedintheidea"toomanychoicesaredizzy"，Ihavebeenconductinganexperiment.1Whenpresentedwithamenuinarestaurant，I’llonlyconsiderthefirstfewoptionsoneachpage.Iknow，itsoundscrazy.2Iusedtoreadthemenualongtimeinsteadofsittingbackandtalkingtomydiningcompanion.ThesedaysIquicklyselectthebest-soundingdishesandthenchatandeat.Indoingso，Ifindmyselftryingnewthings.Theothernight，forexample，Iorderedasmokedchickensalad.IfIhadpermittedmyselftoglancefurtherdownthelist，thiswouldneverhavehappened.Butguesswhat？3Solimitingmychoicescansometimesleadmetoawiderrangeofexperiences.4IcannowaccessmanyfilmsandTVseries，yetaftertenminutesoflookingthroughappsandmenus，IwillmoreoftenthannotfindmyselfwatchingwhateverChannel4hasscheduledat9p.m.SobeforeIeventurnontheTV，Iaskmyself：whatdoIwanttowatch？Ithinkofaprogram.ThenIjustwatchit.ThisdevotiontoasimplersetofpossibilitiescameinhandywhenoursummerholidaytoAmericawascanceled.Ididn’tgothroughamillionTripadvisorreviewsforthebestreplacements.IsimplywentonAirbnb，sawwhatinEnglandwasstillavailableandimmediatelybookedtheoneIcouldafford.5AndnowIcanactuallyfocusonenjoyingourholiday.A.Itwasdelicious.B.Itneverprovedworthatry.C.Butit’sactuallyquiteliberating.D.Itinterpretsalifestyle：lessismore.E.Thesameappliestohomeentertainment.F.Indoingso，Isavedmyselfdaysoftravelanxiety.G.I’vebeenexpandingthechoicesIallowmyselftohave.作者通過講解并描述自己的幾個親身閱歷，詮釋了一種生活方式：少即是多。1.D由上文的"Interestedintheidea...conductinganexperiment"可知，因為對"選擇太多讓人頭暈"的想法感愛好，作者始終在進(jìn)行一項試驗。結(jié)合下文作者的幾個親身閱歷可知，本文主要介紹限制選擇、把事情簡潔化帶來的好處，所以空處應(yīng)當(dāng)是作者得出的一個結(jié)論，故選D項"它詮釋了一種生活方式：少即是多"。2.C由上文的"Whenpresentedwith...oneachpage"可知，當(dāng)作者在餐廳拿到菜單時，他只會考慮每頁的前幾道菜。依據(jù)下文的"Iusedtoread...mydiningcompanion"可知，作者過去常?；ê荛L時間看菜單，而不是坐下來和他的用餐伙伴閑聊。據(jù)此可推斷，空處說的是在餐廳點菜只看菜單每頁的前幾道菜的好處，即不用在菜單上奢侈時間，而是留出時間和用餐伙伴閑聊，故選C項"但這事實上很讓人解脫"。3.A由上文的"Theothernight...Butguesswhat？"可知，作者嘗試了一道新菜；再依據(jù)下文的"Solimitingmy...rangeofexperiences"可知，這道菜給了作者不同的體驗，故選A項"它很美味"。A項中的It指代上文舉例的新菜"asmokedchickensalad"。4.E由下文可知，該段主要介紹作者現(xiàn)在可以看到許多電影和電視劇，但在應(yīng)用程序和菜單上看特別鐘后，常常會發(fā)覺自己在看晚上9點第四頻道支配的節(jié)目。據(jù)此可知，本段都是關(guān)于家庭消遣的，故選E項"這同樣適用于家庭消遣"。5.F由上文的"Thisdevotionto...Icouldafford"可知，作者簡化了旅行的方式；再依據(jù)空后的"AndnowIcanactuallyfocusonenjoyingourholiday"可知，空處應(yīng)當(dāng)和空后內(nèi)容是并列關(guān)系，都是簡化旅行方式帶來的好處，F(xiàn)項"這樣做，我避開了幾天的旅行焦慮"符合語境。三、完形填空[2024廣東惠州一調(diào)]Atafamilypicnicforemployeesofthecompanywheremyfatherworked，theyheldacontestforchildren.Iwas13，fullofenthusiasm，soI1myselfintoit.Thehostgaveeachchildaclothhandkerchiefandtoldusthewinnerwouldbetheonewhocastitthe2.Thefirstthrowers，tookmightywind-ups，butwhentheclothlefttheirhands，it3andlandedonthegroundafewinchesinfrontofthem.Thecrowdroaredwith4.NotuntilthendidIrealizeitwasnotmeantto5anyrealskill，butsimplyforlaughs.However，itstimulatedmy6forthinkingoutsidethebox.It7metoseethatthekidsthrewharderbutthehandkerchiefalwayscaughttheairanddied.Itwasobviousthatusingthesame8wouldnotwork.SupposeItieda（n）9insidethehandkerchief？Whentheyinspectedit，I’dbe10.SoIbegantyingthehandkerchiefarounditselftomakeitsmalland11packedtogethertokeepitfromunfolding.WhenIapproachedtheline，peoplewerealreadylaughing，12abigstrong-lookingboylikemecastingitjustafewinches.Itookalongwind-up，andtheballedhandkerchief13offmaybe60feetaway.Thelaughing14incollectiveshock.Ihadnotbrokentherules.WhatIlearnedfromthiscontestwasthat，inordertolivecreatively，youhaveto15theless-usedpartsofyourbrain，andnotacceptstereotypes（刻板印象），slogansandunquestionedideas.作者父親供職的公司為職工的孩子們舉辦了一場扔布手帕競賽。作者從今次競賽中總結(jié)出一條閱歷，即為了創(chuàng)建性地生活，我們必需挖掘大腦中較少運用的部分，不要受固有思維模式的影響。1.A.admitted B.threwC.trapped D.talked解析B由上文的"fullofenthusiasm"可知，作者對父親公司舉辦的這場競賽熱忱滿滿，因此投入到這場競賽中，故選B。throwoneselfintosth."投身于某事，主動從事某事"。2.A.farthest B.strongestC.highest D.biggest解析A由下文的"Thefirstthrowers，tookmightywind-ups"并結(jié)合常識可知，此處表示在扔布手帕競賽中，誰扔得最遠(yuǎn)誰就是贏家，故選A。3.A.escaped B.wrinkledC.opened D.appeared解析C由空后的"landedonthegroundafewinchesinfrontofthem"并結(jié)合常識可知，當(dāng)布手帕離開他們的手時，布手帕就打開了且落在他們前面幾英寸的地上，故選C。escape逃跑，wrinkle起皺，appear出現(xiàn)。4.A.pain B.applauseC.laughter D.anger解析C由下文的"butsimplyforlaughs"可知，由于布手帕落地的位置與孩子們的努力有很大的落差，所以人們哄堂大笑，故選C。laughter笑聲。5.A.demonstrate B.teachC.improve D.learn解析A直到那時作者才意識到舉辦扔布手帕競賽不是為了展示任何真正的技能而僅僅是為了搞笑，故選A。demonstrate展示，teach教，improve改進(jìn)，learn學(xué)習(xí)。6.A.responsibility B.imaginationC.demand D.passion解析D這次競賽激發(fā)了作者跳出固有思維模式的熱忱。responsibility責(zé)任；imagination想象；demand需求；passion激情，熱忱。7.A.delighted B.frightenedC.amused D
