B．preventC．benefit D．change解析：選B詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第一段最后兩句可知，母女關(guān)系的特性中包含的輩分差別所帶來的不同程度的責(zé)任、義務(wù)及無條件的愛使得她們不會成為最好的朋友。后一句是對前一句的解釋，說明為何母女關(guān)系不同于朋友關(guān)系。由此可知，畫線詞“preclude”意為“妨礙”。故選B項，意為“妨礙，阻止”。2．Whatdoweknowfromthepassage?A．Themotheranddaughterrelationshipcanbereplacedbyabestfriend.B．Amother’slovebringsherandherdaughteraclosefriendship.C．Themotheranddaughterrelationshipgoesbeyondbestfriends’friendship.D．Marinahasatroubledrelationshipwithhermother.解析：選C推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段第一句可知，友誼關(guān)系可以停止，但母女關(guān)系會永遠(yuǎn)存在下去。由此可知C項正確，即母女關(guān)系超越了友誼。3．Theauthorproveshisstatementsmainlyby________.A．listingdata B．givingexplanationsC．quotingsayings D．makingexamples解析：選B寫作手法題。通讀全文可知，文章第一段是中心段，提出了作者的觀點，即母女關(guān)系不同于友誼。第二段引用Marina的觀點說明這種不同性；第三至五段分別從母女關(guān)系中的共性因素、不同責(zé)任因素、母愛因素闡明了引起這種不同性的原因。故選B項，意為“解釋說明”。4．Whatisthebesttitleforthepassage?A．HowtobeagoodmotheranddaughterB．Whoisamother’sbestfriend?C．AfriendinneedisafriendindeedD．Canamotherbeadaughter’sbestfriend?解析：選D標(biāo)題歸納題。通讀全文可知，本文屬于議論文，第一段是中心段，提出了作者的觀點，即母女關(guān)系不同于朋友關(guān)系。其余各段分別從不同角度論證了這個觀點。因此答案選D項，與文章中心一致。B(2016·聊城模擬)Yousignedupforsoccer,andplayedeverygameoftheseason.Sure,you’renotthebestplayerontheteam,butmostdaysyougaveityourall.Doyoudeserveatrophy(獎杯)?IfthedecisionisuptoCarolDweck,theanswerwouldlikelybeno.She’sapsychologyprofessoratStanfordUniversity,California.Shesaysaplayerdoesn’“Thetrophyhastostandforsomething，”DwecktoldTFK.“Ifwegiveatrophytoeveryone,thentheawardhasnovalue.”Dweckarguesthatgivingkidstrophiesforparticularreasons,suchasimprovinginasport,teacheskidsthatadultsvaluehardworkandtryingourbest.Otherssaythatthere’snoharmingivingawardstoallkidswhoplayasport,regardlessofhowtheyplayedorwhetherornottheyimproved.“Ithinkweshouldencouragekids’participationinsports，”saysKennethBarish,apsychologyprofessoratWeillCornellMedicalCollege,inNewYorkCity.“Atrophyisonewaytoencouragekids’efforts.”Barisharguesthatwhenwesingle_outonlythebestoreventhemostimprovedplayerswithatrophy,weareteachingkidsthewronglesson.Wearesendingthemessagethatwinningiseverything.“Winningisonlypartoftheequation(等式)，”BarishtoldTFK.“Playingsportsalsoteacheskidsaboutteamworkandtheimportanceofexercise.”Therewillbeplentyofopportunitiesforkidstolearnaboutcompetitionastheygetolder,saysBarish.They’llsoonrealizethatonlyonesoccerteamwinstheWorldCupandonlyonefootballteamwinstheSuperBowl.Fornow,hethinksthere’snothingwrongwithlettingallkidswhoplayasportfeellikewinners.Thatmeanstrophiesforeveryone.語篇解讀：如果孩子參加體育比賽，那么是不是每個人都該得到獎杯呢？文章就這個問題給出了兩種不同的看法。5．AccordingtoCarolDweck,whichplayershouldreceiveatrophy?A．Tony,themostattractiveplayerofthesoccerteam.B．David,asoccerplayerwhoisbothcleverandfunny.C．Peter,whoisreadytohelphispartnerstoscoregoals.D．Jim,asoccerplayerwhotrieshisbesttowinthegame.解析：選C推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段可知，斯坦福大學(xué)的心理學(xué)教授CarolDweck認(rèn)為，獲獎的運動員未必是最好的運動員。她認(rèn)為，進步最大的、對團隊精神貢獻最多的和表現(xiàn)最佳的運動員都應(yīng)獲獎。故C項正確。6．WhichofthefollowingstatementswouldKennethBarishagreewith?A．Thereisnosenseingivingatrophytoeveryone.B．Kidsfondofplayingsportsshouldberewarded.C．Kidsshouldbegiventrophiesfortryingtheirbest.D．Itisnecessarytoencouragekids’participationinsports.解析：選D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段可知，紐約市威爾康乃爾醫(yī)學(xué)院的心理學(xué)教授KennethBarish認(rèn)為，我們應(yīng)該鼓勵孩子參加體育活動。頒發(fā)獎杯就是一種激勵方式。7．Theunderlinedphrase“singleout”inParagraph6probablymeans“________”．A．honour B．chooseC．value D．stress解析：選B詞義猜測題。根據(jù)第六段可知，Barish認(rèn)為，當(dāng)我們挑選出最佳球員或進步最大的球員并授予他們獎杯的時候，我們給孩子們傳遞了一個錯誤的信號：獲勝就是一切。因此畫線的短語“singleout”意為“挑出”。8．Whichshowsthecorrectstructureofthetext?解析：選B篇章結(jié)構(gòu)題。本文的第一段為導(dǎo)語，導(dǎo)入討論的話題。第二、三段陳述了斯坦福大學(xué)的心理學(xué)教授CarolDweck的主要觀點：反對參與者人人獲獎。下文(第四段至第七段)陳述的是紐約市威爾康乃爾醫(yī)學(xué)院的心理學(xué)教授KennethBarish的觀點，即贊成參與者人人獲獎。因此B項清晰地展示了本文的結(jié)構(gòu)。C(2016·江西贛州高三摸底考試)InSeptemberof2013,residentsofBexarCountycelebratedtheopeningoftheBiblioTechLibrary.ItisoneofthefirstlibrariesinAmericatogocompletelydigitalandperhapsitwillleadthewayforotherstofollow.Tocheckoutabookinthisdigitallibrary,userslinktheirlibrarycardtotheDespitethemovetowardsdigital,theBiblioTechLibraryiscurrentlytheonlydigitallibraryinthenation.However,thebooklesslibraryhasbeenattemptedbefore.Sadly,thischangeprovedtobefartooaheadofitstime.Withinafewyears,thelibrarybeganprovidingmaterialsalongwiththedigitalmaterialsduetorequestsfromthelibrarymembers.Librariesareinthemiddleofagreatchange.Justadecadeago,themainfocuswastolendmaterialstothepublic,butrecentlytheyhavebeenplacingmoreemphasisonprogramstohelpandeducatethecommunity.Alibraryisnolongersimplyaplacetocheckoutbooks.Digitallibrariesarethefuture.Inthenext100yearsorso,booksinprintmaybecompletelyreplacedbytheirdigitalcompetitors.Whilethesecanbemoreconvenientforlibrariesandlibrarymembers,Iamstillgoingtobefondofbooksinprint.Iwillmissthesmellofthepaper,becausethosearethingsIgrewtoloveaboutreadings.語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。2013年9月，美國Bexar縣的居民慶祝第一家Biblio科技圖書館的成立。文章通過Biblio科技圖書館成立這件事，向我們介紹了與傳統(tǒng)圖書館相比，電子圖書館的優(yōu)勢及未來圖書館的發(fā)展方向。9．WhatdoesParagraph1mainlytalkabout?A．TheopeningoftheBiblioTechLibrary.B．TheimprovementoftheBiblioTechLibrary.C．TheimportanceoftheBiblioTechLibrary.D．TheintroductionoftheBiblioTechLibrary.解析：選D段落大意題。通讀第一段可知，本段主要通過Biblio科技圖書館成立這件事，向讀者介紹了一種新型的電子圖書館及這種圖書館的使用方法。故答案選D。10．Whatcanbeinferredaboutlibrariesfromthetext?A．Thefunctionexpands.B．Theincomeincreases.C．Thedevelopmentslowsdown.D．Thebusinessdeclines.解析：選A推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段“Librariesareinthemiddleofagreatchange...Alibraryisnolongersimplyaplacetocheckoutbooks.”可推知，圖書館的功能增加了。故答案選A。11．Thewriterseemstobeapersonwho________.A．iscrazyaboute-readersB．worksinalibraryC．missestheolddaysD．ishopelessaboutthefuture解析：選C推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段最后兩句“...Iamstillgoingtobefondofbooks...loveaboutreadings.”可知，作者仍喜歡閱讀紙質(zhì)圖書，會懷念紙質(zhì)圖書的味道，也正是因為它們作者才愛上了閱讀。由此可知，作者是個懷舊的人。故答案選C。D(2016·威海一中高三第二次質(zhì)檢)Forfamiliesonvacation,aplaygroundprovidesawelcomebreakfromsightseeing.Itcanalsoprovideaglimpseintothelocalculture,fromthesetupoftheparktothewaysfamiliesinteract.Herearethedesignsthatliveuptothatchallenge.FruitandScentPark,StockholmIsthereapickyeateronasteadydietofchickenfingersandcheese?PerhapsatriptoSweden’sFruitandScentParkwillchangehisorherculinary(烹飪的)tune.Thisplaygroundfeaturesabananaslide,anorangeseesaw,pearhuts,awatermelonjunglegymandapairofcherryswings,alldesignedbypublicartistJohanFernerStrom.Now,whocansayyoucan’tplaywithyourfood?NishiRokugoPark,TokyoLocatedbetweencentralTokyoandthecityofKawasaki,NishiRokugocombinesrecycledrubbertires(橡膠輪胎)withtraditionalplaygroundequipment.Intotal,morethan3,000tiresofdifferentsizesareusedtocreatetunnels,bridges,tallsculpturesforclimbingand,ofcourse,tireswings.There’slittleshade,soyoucanvisithereintheearlymorningorlateafternoonforthemostcomfortableweather,andbesuretowearyourplayclothes.BicentennialChildren’sPark,Santiago,ChileSetatopSanCristóbalHill,theBicentennialChildren’splaygroundinMetropolitanParkwasbuilttocelebrate200yearsofChileanindependenceandimprovethelivesofSantiagocitizens.Dozensofslidesarebuiltintotheslope,creatingadesigncompletelycomplementary(補充的)ofthesurroundinglandscape.Fountainsoffersomerelieffromthesun,andampleseatinggivesparentsaplacetorelax.語篇解讀：本文是說明文。主要介紹了可供家庭度假的三個特色創(chuàng)意公園。12．Whatismainlytalkedaboutinthetext?A．Programsdesignedforcultureexchange.B．Themeparksattractingmosttourists.C．Creativesitesforfamilytohangout.D．Topmuseumsaroundtheworld.解析：選C主旨大意題。本文主要向讀者介紹了三個有特色的創(chuàng)意公園：瑞典斯德哥爾摩的水果和香味公園；日本東京的NishiRokugo游樂場(輪胎游樂場)和智利圣地亞哥的二百周年紀(jì)念兒童公園。結(jié)合第一段可知，這三個公園主要是針對家庭的，而不是針對任何游客的。13．WhatcanbelearnedaboutFruitandScentA．ItislocatedinTokyo,B．Itsdesignwasledbysomeartists.C．Itisaimedtobalancepeople’sdiet.D．Itsfacilitiesaremodelledafterfruits.解析：選D細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段可知瑞典斯德哥爾摩的水果和香味公園里的設(shè)施大多是水果造型的。14．WhenvisitingNishiA．wearthickprotectiveclothesB．a(chǎn)voidmomentswhenit’shotC．takeumbrellasandraincoatsD．watchoutfortheequipment解析：選B細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段最后一句可知到日本東京的NishiRokugo游樂場(輪胎游樂場)游玩的最好時間是上午的早些時候和下午的晚些時候。也就是說要避開天熱時段。15．WhydoestheauthorrecommendBicentennialChildren’sPark?A．Itbecomespartofthesurroundings.B．Itwasbuilttoimprovepeople’slives.C．Itamuseskidsandhelpsparentsgetrelaxed.D．Itprovidesslidesforbothchildrenandadults.解析：選C推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段最后一句可知到智利圣地亞哥的二百周年紀(jì)念兒童公園游玩的孩子的父母可以得到很好的放松，因為里面有很多座位和噴泉。可推知到此游玩，既可以使孩子得到快樂，也能讓父母得到放松。Ⅱ.閱讀七選五(2016·長春市普通高中質(zhì)檢一)Parentsareoftenscaredtotalktotheirkidsaboutmoney.Infactkidsneedtounderstandhowtosaveandmanagetheirmoney.Properpreparationforyourch
