1、2020屆高考英語(yǔ)二輪專題訓(xùn)練：閱讀理解（2） A (2020屆·東北三校聯(lián)考) When Taylor Swift first came to the attention of the public，she was a 17-year-old newcomer who loved singing to her guitar.She seemed far more enthusiastic than skillful. Four years later，Swift became a multi-award winner.This month，she was crowned “Woma

2、n of the Year” by Billboard magazine，the youngest singer-song-writer ever to receive the honor.“Aged only 21，Taylor has already made a maior impact on music and has been an unbelievable role model for hopeful artists and young women everywhere，” said Bill Werde，Billboard’s director. Werde’s_words_d

3、o_not_come_from_nowhere. Unlike many pop singers，especially those who do not write their own material，Swift has the power of turning her ideas into lyrics that will set people thinking.“Hidden beneath Taylor Swift’s not-a-girl，not-yet-a-woman sweetness is a very skillful songwriting technique，” wrot

4、e Leah Greenblatt in an American magazine. Songwriting，as Swift explains，is to cope with issues.“I tend to write about things that really impact me most.” There certainly seems to be something true and honest running through every one of the 14 songs on her album，Speak Now，about “the lessons and co

5、nfusion and heartbreak and all the different things that go along with being 18,19 and 20.” “For the audience too young to have experienced real passion or heartbreak，Swift’s songs are like a potential road map，promising things will work out OK，” commented Dorian ynskey in a British newspaper. Now

6、 Swift is getting ready to go further and has so far written about 10 songs for her 2020 album，which is about feelings of growing up and becoming an adult.“They’re sad，if I’m being honest.”“They’re about my heartbreaks and my moving on.But more importantly，they are about achieving contentment.You’re

7、 not always going to be perfectly happy as you grow up.” 1．What does the writer mean by saying “Werde’s words do not come from nowhere”？ A．Swift stands out as a singer and songwriter. B．Only Swift writes her own songs. C．Swift begins to take interest in singing. D．Swift decides to deal with pro

8、blems in her new album. 2．Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A．Swift has the ability to write songs with deeper meanings. B．Swift is both enthusiastic and skillful now. C．Swift became a multi-award winner when she began to sing on the stage. D．Swift’s album

10、wift experiences real passion B The practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past. With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphones, writing by hand has become something of a nostalgic(懷舊的) skill. However, while today's educ

11、ators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful—both in school and in life. Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington, says it's important to continue te

12、aching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand. Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks－both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in 2020, found that when writing with a pen and pap

13、er, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate. In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student's writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to how well they can write. “Spelling makes some

14、of the thinking parts of the brain active, which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas.” Berninger said. Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe (轉(zhuǎn)換) “those words in

15、the mind into written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen，” the study said. Seeing the words in the “mind's_eye” helps children not only to turn their ideas into words, says Berninger, but also to spot (發(fā)現(xiàn)) spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct them over time. “In our

16、computer age, some people believe that we don't have to teach spelling because we have spell checks，” she said. “But until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won't have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.” 4

17、6. What makes writing by hand a thing of the past? A. The absence of blackboards in classrooms. B. The use of new technologies in teaching. C. The lack of practice in handwriting. D. The popular use of smartphones. 47. Berninger's study published in 2020 ________. A. focused on the difference

18、between writing by hand and on a computer B. indicated that students prefer to write with a pen and paper C. found that good essays are made up of long sentences D. discussed the importance of writing speed 48. Which of the following best shows the role of spelling? A. Spelling improves one's

19、memory of words. B. Spelling ability is closely related to writing ability. C. Spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas. D. Spelling slows down finding exact words to express ideas. 49. What does “mind's eye” in Paragraph 5 mean? A. Window. B. Soul. C. Picture. D. Imagination.

20、 50. What conclusion could be drawn from the passage? A. Computers can help people with their choice of words. B. Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching. C. Handwriting still has a place in today's classrooms. D. Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade. C It

21、 was a Sunday and the heavy storm had lasted all night．The morning after the storm, though, was beautiful: blue skies, warm air and a calm, inviting sea touching the shore gently． My father realised it was a good day for fishing and invited my sister and me to go with him．I was only 14 and fishing

22、had never been my thing, but I decided to go all the same．I’m so glad I did． On the road to the harbour we could see the terrible destruction on the coast, but the harbour itself was in fairly good shape．After all, it was protected by the arms of a bay that had only one tiny channel to the sea．As w

23、e got on board, we noticed two big humps(脊背) in the distance． On approaching them, we saw it was a mother whale with her baby．We couldn’t believe it —there aren’t any whales along the coast here．The storm must have driven them across the ocean into the bay, in which the still water was so badly pol

24、luted that nothing could survive． The little baby whale — actually as big as our boat — was obviously stuck and could not move．The mother dived under the water and came up suddenly, making big whirlpools(漩渦) and waves．” She’s trying to help her baby, but on the wrong side,” my father said．At this p

25、oint, my father moved our boat in a semicircle to the other side and, heading the boat towards the baby whale, pushed it gently．With our several gentle pushes the big hump turned over and disappeared under water．Then it swam up right beside its mum．They struggled in their desperate attempts to escap

26、e but missed the exit and started heading in the wrong direction．We hurried up to the whales and tried to lead them towards the bay channel．Slowly, they let us lead them, sometimes rising from the water right beside us to breathe — and to give us a trusting look with those huge eyes．Once they hit th

27、eir first part of clean water flowing straight from the sea, the mum gave us a wave with her tail and off they swam into the distance． In the excitement it had felt like only a few minutes, but we had been with those wonderful animals for almost an hour and a half．That was the simple and lasting be

28、auty of the day, Nearly four decades later, I still look back fondly to that golden day at sea． 56．The author says “I’m so glad I did．” (in Para．2) because __________． A．he witnessed the whole process of fishing B．he enjoyed the beauty of the calm sea C．he experienced the rescue of the whales D

30、 water for too long B．the whirlpools she had made were not big enough C．she had no other whales around to tutu to for help D．the waves pushed her baby in the wrong direction 59．What is the theme of the story? A．Saving lives brings people a sense of happiness． B．Fishing provides excitement for

31、children． C．It’s necessary to live in harmony with animals． D．It’s vital to protect the environment． D Some scientists say that animals in the oceans are increasingly threatened by noise pollution caused by human beings. The noise that affects sea creatures comes from a number of human activiti

32、es. It is caused mainly by industrial underwater explosions, ocean drilling, and ship engines. Such noises are added to natural sounds. These sounds include the breaking of ice fields, underwater earthquakes, and sounds made by animals themselves. Decibels (分貝) measured in water are different from

33、those measured on land. A noise of one hundred and twenty decibels on land causes pain to human ears. In water, a decibel level of one hundred and ninety－five would have the same effect. Some scientists have suggested setting a noise limit of one hundred and twenty decibels in the oceans. They have

34、 observed that noises at that level can frighten and confuse whales（鯨魚）. A team of American and Canadian scientists discovered that louder noises can seriously injure some animals. The research team found that powerful underwater explosions were causing whales in the area to lose their hearing. Th

35、is seriously affected the whales' ability to exchange information and find their way. Some of the whales even died. The explosions had caused their ears to bleed and become infected(被感染的). Many researchers whose work depends on ocean sounds are against a limit of one hundred and twenty decibels. Th

36、ey say such a limit would mean an end to important industrial and scientific research. Scientists do not know how much and what kinds of noises are harmful to ocean animals. However, many scientists don’t think that noise is a greater danger than they believed. They want to prevent noises from harm

37、ing creatures in the ocean. 26. According to the passage, which of the following is increasingly dangerous to sea creatures? A. The sound of cars. B. The sound of voices. C. Man-made noise pollution. D. The sound of steps. 27. According to the passage, natural sounds include all of the followi

38、ng EXCEPT________. A. sounds made by animals themselves B. ocean drilling C. underwater earthquakes D. the breaking of ice fields 28. Which of the following is discussed in the third paragraph? A. The same noise level produces a different effect on land and in the ocean. B. Different plac

39、es may have different types of noises. C. The decibel is not a right unit (單位) for measuring underwater noise. D. Different ocean animals may have different reactions to noises. 29. Which of the following is true of whales? A. They won't be confused by noises. B. They are deaf to noises. C. Th

40、eir ability to reproduce will be lowered by high-level noises. D. Their hearing will be damaged by high-level noises. A. They will work hard to reduce ocean noise pollution. 30. According to the passage, what will scientists most probably do in the future? C. They will try to set a limit of 120

41、decibels. B. They will protect animals from harmful noises. D. They will study the effect of ocean noise pollution.
