2020版高考英語一輪復習 課時提能練2 English around the world（含解析）新人教版

課時提能練(二).閱讀理解(2019·河北五校聯(lián)考)Two of the saddest words in the English language are“if only”I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words，because they convey regrets，lost opportunities，mistakes，and disappointment.My father is famous in our family for saying，“Take the extra minute to do it right.”I always try to live by the “extra minute”rule.When my children were young and likely to cause accidents，I always thought about what I could do to avoid an“if only”moment，whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter，or something that required a little more work such as taping padding(襯墊) to the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.I don't only avoid those“if only”moments when it comes to safety.It's equally important to avoid“if only”in our personal relationships.We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had forgone an opportunity to say“I love you”or“I forgive you”When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday，I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn't be there.But then I thought about the fact that he was 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn't miss an opportunity to see him.I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.I know there will still be occasions when I have to say“if only”about something，but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality.And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right，or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection，I know that I'm doing the right thing.I'm buying myself peace of mind and that's the best kind of insurance for my emotional well­being.【語篇解讀】“我”認為英語中最悲傷的兩個詞是“if only”，因為它們表達了遺憾。父親在“我”小時候經(jīng)常告訴我們花費額外的時間也要把事情做好來避免遺憾，“我”聽從父親的建議并認為這樣做是對的。1Why does the writer regard“if only”as two of the saddest words in the English language?ABecause people use them when they feel sad.BBecause they express regrets and disappointment in life.CBecause they remind the writer of some sad experiences.DBecause they mean sadness in the English language.B細節(jié)理解題。由第一段中的“Two of the saddest words in the English language areif only.because they convey regrets，lost opportunities，mistakes，and disappointment”可知，“我”認為英語中最令人傷心的兩個詞是“if only”，因為這兩個詞表達了后悔、錯失的機會、錯誤和失望，故選B項。2What's the meaning of the underlined word“forgone”in Paragraph 3?AGiven up. BCome across.CGot through.DHeld back.A詞義猜測題。該詞所在的句子表達的意思是：我們都認識這樣的人，他們在失去所愛之人后會后悔錯失了說“我愛你”或“我原諒你”的機會。所以畫線詞表示“失去了”，和短語give up意思接近。故選A項。3The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to _Asee a doctorBfinish her workCjoin a celebrationDaccompany her fatherD細節(jié)理解題。題干中的關鍵信息“decided to go to her office”對應原文中的“I had decided to go to work”，由此定位到倒數(shù)第二段。從倒數(shù)第二段可以看出，“我”知道父親要去自己辦公室對面看眼科醫(yī)生時，本來打算按原計劃休假，但突然意識到父親已經(jīng)84歲了，所以“我”決定即便是自己的休息日，為了陪父親，也會去上班。故選D項。4What is the best title for the passage?AAdvice from My FatherBAvoidance of Saying“If Only”CThe“Extra Minute”RuleDThe Importance of Emotional Well­beingB標題歸納題。根據(jù)首尾段的第一句話及文章大意可知，本文主要是針對避免說英語中最傷心的兩個詞“if only”進行闡述的，所以B項“避免說if only”符合全文內容。.閱讀七選五(2019·內蒙古四校聯(lián)考)If you're a first­time language learner，you know that emotional(情感的) ups and downs are a normal situation.When you understand a concept or begin to comprehend the language，you may experience feelings of excitement.However，those are often followed by moments of disappointment and discouragement，during which you might feel as if you will never master the concepts and attain the ability to understand and communicate effectively._1_Learn vocabulary effectivelyVocabulary is the most important part of communication.The more words you know，the more you can say and understand.The absolute best way to learn vocabulary is through the use of flash cards that you make by yourself.Purchase a set of 3×5 index cards(索引卡片) and cut them in half._2_As you learn more information about each word，e.g.plural forms of nouns and principle parts of verbs，you can add these to the cards._3_Research shows that language students learn more effectively and acquire more when they study frequently for shorter periods of time than if they study infrequently for extended periods of time._4_This means doing a few homework exercises each day rather than doing all homework exercises the night before they are due.Practice language actively_5_Say vocabulary words out loud，read passages in the text aloud，do pronunciation activities orally and not just mentally.Write out the answers to activities rather than gliding through them in your mind.Read aloud entire sentences in an activity rather than just reading a fill­in response.Transferring language from your mind to your mouth is a skill that requires a great deal of practice.ABreak study time into smaller periodsBThen use flash cards as a learning toolCTry to study each day，and several times a dayDThe time­tested approaches are effective in your learningEWrite a word on the front and its English definition on the backFWhenever possible，speak the language aloud rather than reciting silently to yourselfGBelow are some approaches that will relieve your potential frustration and help you succeed in language learning【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文，主要為語言初學者提供了學習語言的三條建議。1G根據(jù)上文提到的語言初學者會在學習語言的過程中遇到挫折，認為自己不可能掌握那些概念，也不能獲得有效地理解和進行交流的能力及下文給出的三條學習語言的建議可知，此處應填一個起承上啟下作用的句子，故G項“下面是一些將緩解你潛在的挫折感，幫助你在語言學習方面取得成功的方法”符合語境。2E根據(jù)空后的“As you learn more information about each word.you can add these to the cards”可知，當你學到更多有關每個單詞的信息時，你可以把它們添加到卡片上，因此空處內容應涉及在卡片上記某些東西，故E項“把單詞寫在卡片的正面，并把它的英語釋義寫在背面”符合語境。3A根據(jù)本段內容可知，語言學習者把學習時間分成各個小段來頻繁地學習比一次學習很長時間取得的效果要好，因此本段提供的學習方法應是把學習時間分成小段來進行學習，故A項符合語境。4C根據(jù)下文中的“This means doing a few homework exercises each day rather than doing all homework exercises the night before they are due”可知，此處是說每天應該做一些家庭作業(yè)而不是拖到最后一刻一次完成，故C項“試著每天都學習，并且一天學習多次”符合語境。5F根據(jù)本段的小標題“Practice language actively”可知，本段主要講的是要積極地練習語言，故F項“只要有可能，大聲地說出這門語言，而不是靜靜地背給自己聽”符合語境。.語法填空(2019·長沙測試)The first UN Chinese Language Day at the United Nations 1._(observe) on Friday at UN Headquarters in New York in 2010.2._ the world's most widely spoken language，it seems appropriate that Mandarin(普通話) has one day every year dedicated(把專用于) to it.This 3._(official) marked day of Mandarin language celebration was set by the United Nations as a way of celebrating the language's history and 4._(contribute) to the world.It is hoped that having one day every year 5._(celebrate) Mandarin will encourage more people around the world to take it up.With China likely to become the 6._(large) economy in the world，it is important that the wider world becomes interestingly more perfect in this wonderful language.Every year UN Chinese Language Day 7._(fall) on April 20.A great way to get 8._(involve) in the celebration is to join a Mandarin class or attend one of the many Confucius Institutes(孔子學院) 9._ are set up by China in countries around the world.The number of people learning Chinese is on 10._ increase in China's neighboring countries，such as Korea，Japan，and Vietnam.【語篇解讀】這是一篇說明文，作者講述了聯(lián)合國確立的普通話日以及普通話在世界上的普及情況。1was observed考查時態(tài)和語態(tài)。依據(jù)本句中的時間狀語“in 2010”可知，此句應用一般過去時，又因observe“慶祝”與主語是被動關系，因此用一般過去時的被動語態(tài)。2As考查介詞。作為世界上使用最廣泛的語言，每年有一天專用于(慶祝)普通話似乎是很恰當?shù)?。As在這里表示“作為”。3officially考查副詞。聯(lián)合國正式確定普通話的節(jié)日是為了慶祝該語言的歷史和對世界的貢獻。這里用副詞officially修飾形容詞marked。4contributions考查名詞。本句中的and連接了celebrating的兩個賓語，即history和contribution，又因contribution作“貢獻”講時為可數(shù)名詞，其前無限定詞，故用contributions。5to celebrate考查非謂語動詞。人們希望通過每年有一天慶祝普通話的活動能鼓勵世界上更多的人學習普通話。本句考查了have some time to do.的句式，故填不定式to celebrate?！疽族e分析】該題考生易寫成celebrating或celebrated，誤把該句式理解為have sth.done或have sth.doing的結構，仔細研讀句意可知，句中的have不是“使，讓”的含義，而是“有”，因此此處為have some time to do.的句式。6largest考查形容詞最高級。句中的likely表示推測，再結合語境及空前的the可知，這里用large的最高級。7falls考查時態(tài)。此處描述一般情況，故用一般現(xiàn)在時。fall on意為“(節(jié)日等)適逢(某日)”，又因主語為第三人稱單數(shù)，故填falls。8involved考查形容詞。get involved表示“參與，卷入”，其中get為連系動詞，involved為形容詞作get的表語，故填involved。9that/which考查定語從句。分析句子結構可知，空處引導一個限制性定語從句，修飾先行詞Confucius Institutes，空處在句中作主語，故填that/which。10the考查冠詞。on the increase“在增長中”，是固定搭配，故填定冠詞the。.短文改錯(2019·陜西檢測)Dear Mr.Thomas，I learn from the Notice Board that you want a word editor for the English Weekly.Luckily
