2024-2025学年新高二英语提分计划-暑期每日限时30分钟练习（Day 9)

英语提分计划——暑期每日限时30分钟练习 Day 9 （一） 阅读理解B I used to believe that only words could catch the essence of the human soul. The literary works contained such distinct stories that they shaped the way we saw the world. Words were what composed the questions we sought to uncover and the answers to those questions themselves. Words were everything. That belief changed. In an ordinary math class, my teacher posed a simple question: What's 0.99 rounded to the nearest whole number? Easy. When rounded to the nearest whole number, 0.99 = 1. Somehow, I thought even though 0.99 is only 0.01 away from 1, there's still a 0.01 difference. That means even if two things are only a little different, they are still different, so doesn't that make them completely different? My teacher answered my question by presenting another equation (等式): I = 0.9, which could also be expressed as 1 = 0.99999.... repeating itself without ever ending. There was something mysterious but fascinating about the equation. The left side was unchangeable, objective: it contained a number that ended. On the right was something endless, number repeating itself limitless times. Yet, somehow, these two opposed things were connected by an equal sign. Lying in bed, I thought about how much the equation paralleled our existence. The left side of the equation represents that sometimes life itself is so unchangeable and so clear. The concrete, whole number of the day when you were born and the day when you would die. But then there is that gap in between life and death. The right side means a time and space full of limitless possibilities, and endless opportunities into the open future. So that's what life is. Objective but imaginative. Unchangeable but limitless. Life is an equation with two sides that balances itself out. Sill, we can't ever truly seem to put the perfect words to it. So possible numbers can express ideas as equally well as words can. For now, let's leave it at that: 1 = 0.99999... and live a life like it. 24. What does the author emphasize about words in paragraph 1? A. Their wide variety. B. Their literary origins. C. Their distinct sounds. D. Their expressive power. 25. What made the author find the equation fascinating? A. The repetition of a number. B. The way two different numbers are equal. C. The question the teacher raised. D. The difference between the two numbers. 26. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “paralleled” in paragraph 6? A. Measured. B. Composed. C. Mirrored. D. Influenced. 27. What is a suitable title for the text? A. The Perfect Equation B. Numbers Build Equations C. An Attractive Question D.

D 25. B 26. C 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲的是作者在数学课上学了一个等式后的一些感悟。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“I used to believe that only words could catch the essence of the human soul. The literary works contained such distinct stories that they shaped the way we saw the world. Words were what composed the questions we sought to uncover and the answers to those questions themselves.(我曾经相信，只有语言才能捕捉到人类灵魂的本质。文学作品包含了如此独特的故事，它们塑造了我们看待世界的方式。文字构成了我们试图揭示的问题，以及这些问题本身的答案)”可推知，在第一段作者主要强调了语言的表达力量，故选D。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“There was something mysterious but fascinating about the equation. The left side was unchangeable, objective: it contained a number that ended. On the right was something endless, number repeating itself limitless times. Yet, somehow, these two opposed things were connected by an equal sign.(这个方程式神秘而迷人。左边是不变的、客观的：里面有一个没有尽头的数字。右边是无穷无尽的东西，数字无限重复。然而，不知怎么的，这两个相反的东西被一个等号连接起来了)”可知，作者觉得这个等式很迷人，因为数字虽然不同，但是却被等号连接起来了。由此推知，让作者觉得这个等式迷人的是两个不同的数相等的方式。故选B。 【26题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“The left side of the equation represents that sometimes life itself is so unchangeable and so clear. The concrete, whole number of the day when you were born and the day when you would die. But then there is that gap in between life and death.(等式的左边表示有时候生命本身是如此的不可改变，如此的清晰。你出生的日期和你死亡的日期的具体整数。但是生与死之间有一段距离)”可知，作者躺在床上思考的是这个等式与我们的存在是多么相似，划线词paralleled的意思是“与……十分相似”，和mirrored意思相近，故选C。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第四段“My teacher answered my question by presenting another equation (等式): 1= 0.9, which could also be expressed as 1=0.99999.... repeating itself without ever ending.(我的老师给出了另一个等式：1= 0.9，也可以表示为1=0.99999……不断重复，没有尽头)”和第五段“There was something mysterious but fascinating about the equation. The left side was unchangeable, objective: it contained a number that ended. On the right was something endless, number repeating itself limitless times. Yet, somehow, these two opposed things were connected by an equal sign.(这个等式神秘而迷人。左边是不变的、客观的：里面有一个没有尽头的数字。右边是无穷无尽的东西，数字无限重复。然而，不知怎么的，这两个相反的东西被一个等号连接起来了)”可知，本文主要讲的是作者在数学课上学了一个等式后的一些感悟。由此可知，最恰当的标题是A选项“The Perfect Equation(完美的等式)”。故选A。 词汇梳理 1. used to do 过去常常做某事 be used to do 被用来做某事 be used to doing习惯于做某事 2. the essence of the human soul 人类灵魂的本质 3. literary works 文学作品 4. distinct adj.清晰的；明显的 ---n. distinction 区分 5. shape v.塑造 n.形状；状况 6. compose v.组成；作曲；创作（音乐）；撰写---composition n.成分；组成；作文；作品 7. uncover v.揭开，揭露 8. pose v.提出；引起；造成 n.（为画像、拍照等摆的）姿势 9. round v.把…四舍五入；绕过 adj.圆的 n.旋转 adv.环绕 prep.在…周围 10. present v.提出；赠送 adj.存在；出席 n.目前；礼物 11. unchangeable, objective 不变的，客观的 12. opposed adj.反对的；对立的 13. parallel v.与…相似 adj.平行（的）；极相似的；同时发生的； 14. existence n.存在--v. exist 15.represent v.代表；表现 -- n. representation -- representative n.销售代表；adj.典型的； 16.limitless / endless opportunities 无限的机会 （二）答案：41-45 CBACD 46-50 ABCDA 51-55 CBBDD 词汇积累 1. material n. 衣料，布料；材料，原料adj. 物质的，非精神上的 2. donation n. 捐赠物，捐赠，赠送 3. injury n. （身体上的）伤，损害；<法律>（对感情的）伤害，挫伤 4. signature n. 签名，署名；签字，签署；鲜明特色，明显特征；（印刷）折标；书贴；<美>标记，用法签（处方上说明药的用法的部分）；（音乐的）拍号；（音乐的）调号 adj. 标志性的，惯有的 5. creative adj. 创造（性）的，创作的；有创造力的，有想象力的n. 创作者；创意 6. thrilled adj. 非常兴奋，极为激动 7. profit n. 利润，盈利；<正式> 利益，好处 v. 获益 8. compete v. 竞争，对抗；争夺；参加比赛 9. compare v. 比较，对比；把……比作；（与……）相比；n. 比较 10. contribute v. 捐赠，捐助；（为……）做贡献；促成，是……的原因之一；撰稿，投稿；发表意见， 11. fadev. 逐渐消失；（使）褪色 fade away 12. remain v. 逗留，留下；剩余，遗留；保持不变，一直是；仍需去做（或处理）n. 剩余（物） 13. patience n. 耐心；耐性；忍耐力 14. curiosity n. 好奇心，求知欲 15. generosity n. 慷慨，大方 16. fortunate adj. 幸运的；带来幸运的，吉利的 17. on occasion 偶尔，有时候 18. in exchange 作为交换或替代 回报或互惠 19. at ease 放松、安逸或无担忧的状态 20. accompany v. 陪伴，陪同；伴随，与……一起发生； 21. victim n. 受害者，罹难者 22. survivor n. （灾难性事故中的）幸存者，生还者，幸存物；能在艰苦环境中生存的人，挺过困难者； （三）【答案】 1. recognition   2. fiercely 3. significant 4. explained 5. to love   6. as   7. where   8. a   9. and   10. complicating    *词汇积累* 1.competitive adj.竞争的 --v. compete 2. the Spring Festival silver screen 春节银幕 3. set off 激起；出发 4. weight loss 减重 5.muscle gain 增肌 6. account n.账号；解释 v.认为是 7. be related to 与...有关 8. feature v.由…主演；以…为特色; n.特色，特征 9. unexpected adj.意料之外的--v.expect 10. encounter v./n.遭遇，遇到 11. coach n.教练 v.指导，训练 12. play a trick on sb. 捉弄某人 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
