2025高考备考专题复习高中英语精选专项训练：阅读理解记叙文 名校模拟预测 （2024·江苏南通·模拟预测）Robert was born on August 9, 1910 in the Netherlands. His mother came from a family of musicians and piano manufacturers, a fact that greatly influenced Robert’s life. His father was a physician in army, a position which required frequent foreign postings. The family stayed in various areas of East Asia for most of Robert’s youth. This experience contributed to his appreciation for cultures and mastery of several languages. Robert was a hardworking academic, collector of art and manuscripts, and translator of ancient writings. He studied and trained to become a master musician on the Chinese guqin, and eventually wrote two books on the instrument. Similarly, his skills as an artist in the traditional Chinese style and knowledge of calligraphy were unparalleled. He wrote and published a number of non-fiction, scholarly articles and books on Chinese music, art, and literature, as well as Chinese culture and folk legends. In 1940, Robert came across a little-known and anonymous (匿名的)18th-century Chinese novel that would take his career down an unplanned pathway and result in the public fame he never anticipated. The novel, titled Four Great Strange Cases of Empress Wu’s Reign, was a fictional account of the deeds of Judge Dee, one of the heroes of traditional Chinese detective fiction, and was set in the 7th-century Tang Dynasty. Fascinated, Robert not only translated the novel into English, he also did some research on the history of Chinese Penal Code and other legal literature of the period. It was not until 1949 that Robert was able to publish his translation —Dee Goong An: Three Murder Cases Solved by Judge Dee. Robert’s Chinese mysteries comprise over 10 novels and short-story volumes, recording the career of Chinese detective called Di Renjie. Interestingly, the tales first found fame in oriental (东方的)editions, before being translated into English in 1957. Through all the novels by Robert, he impressively brings to life the sights and sounds of daily Chinese life in the past. His passionate devotion and respect for the Chinese culture was never discounted, yet he also appreciated the purpose of fiction. 1．What inspired Robert’s love for oriental culture?

Gus has autism (自闭症), and Siri, Apple's “intelligent personal assistant” on the iPhone, is currently his BFF(Best Friend Forever). Obsessed with weather formations, Gus had spent the past hour exploring the difference between isolated and scaltered thunderstorms—an hour during which, thank God, I didn't have to discuss with him myself. After a while I heard this: Gus:“You're a really nice computer.” Siri:“It's nice to be appreciated.” Gus:“You're always asking if you can help me.Is there anything you want?” Siri: “Thank you, but I have very few wants.” Gus: “OK. Well, good night!” Siri: “See you later!” That is Siri. She does not let my communicatively impaired son get away with anything. When Gus discovered there was someone who would not only find information for him related to his various obsessions but would also be willing to tirelessly discuss these subjects, he was hooked. She is also wonderful for someone who does not pick up on social cues: Siri's responses are not entirely predictable, but they are predictably kind—even when Gus is rude. I heard him talking to Siri about music, and Siri offered some suggestions. “I don't like that kind of music.” Gus snapped(厉声说). Siri replied, “You're certainly entitled to your opinion.” Siri's politeness reminded Gus what he owed Siri. “Thank you for that music, though.” Gus said. My son's practice conversations with Siri are starting to translate into increased facility with actual humans. Yesterday I had the longest ever conversation with him. Admittedly, it was about different species of turtles which might not have been my choice of topic, but it was back and forth, and followed a logic. For most of my son's 13 years of existence, this has not been the case. Indeed, many of us wanted an imaginary friend when we were young, and now we can all have one not entirely imaginary anytime we wish to. In a world where the commonly held wisdom is that technology isolates us, it's worth considering another side of the story. The developers of intelligent assistants recognize their potential usefulness for those with speech and communication problems, and some are currently pondering new ways in which the assistants can help. “For example, the assistant would be able to track eye movements and help the autistic learn to look you in the eye while talking." said William Mark, vice president of the company from whom Apple purchased the technology behind Siri. “See, that's the wonderful thing about technology. Getting results requires a lot of repetition. Machines are very, very patient." 5．What did the author feel when she watched her son having a deep conversation with Siri about thunderstorms? A．Concerned but helpless. B．Excited and overjoyed. C．Guilty but relieved D．Hopeless and surprised. 6．Which of the following statements about Gus is true? A．He had always dreamed of having an imaginary friend. B．He shows no interest in anything that is not related to weather. C．He has trouble communicating with others because of his illness. D．He has been friends with Siri since he was diagnosed with autism. 7．Siri has helped Gus in the following aspects except A．setting a fixed bedtime routine B．exploring his special interests C．shaping his logic while talking D．improving his interaction with people 8．What does the author learn from her son's story? A．Siri makes people feel much lonely in modern society. B．Siri sometimes provides better assistance than people. C．Siri has a better academic performance than the author. D．Siri is likely to be an effective cure for her son's autism. 9．What can we learn from the last paragraph? A．Intelligent assistants will be more widely employed in the future. B．The use of intelligent assistants will likely be limited to autistic people. C．Machines are more skilled and patient at communication than humans. D．William Mark was critical of the future development of intelligent assistants. （2024·广东深圳·模拟预测）All I needed to do to earn the two dollars was to clean her house for a few hours after school. It was a beautiful house with things that were common in her neighborhood, absent in mine. Working for her brought me a sense of pride, not only because I could immerse myself in little luxuries like movies and candy, but also because I contributed half of my earnings to my mother, ensuring they were used for necessities. I was not like the children in folktales: burdensome mouths to feed, problems so severe that they were abandoned to the forest. I had a status that doing routine chores in my house did not provide — and it earned me a slow smile and confirmations that I was adult-like, not childlike. Little by little, I got better at cleaning her house — good enough to be given more to do. After struggling to move the piano, my limbs ached terribly. Despite wanting to decline or voice my discomfort, I feared losing my job and the independence and respect it afforded me. She began to offer me her clothes, for a price. Impressed by these worn things, which looked simply elegant to a little girl who had only two dresses to wear to school, I bought a few. Still, I had trouble summoning up (鼓起) the courage to object to the increasing demands she made. Despite feeling overwhelmed, I hesitated to voice my concerns, knowing my mother would urge me to quit. However, one day while alone in the kitchen with my father, I expressed my disappointment. In any case, he put down his cup of coffee and said, “Whatever the work is, do it well — not for the boss but for yourself. You make the job; it doesn’t make you. You are not the work you do; you are the person you are.” I have worked for all sorts of people since then, geniuses and fools, quick-witted and dull, big-hearted and narrow. I’ve had many kinds of jobs, but since that conversation with my father, I have never considered the level of labor to be the measure of myself, and I have never placed the security of a job above my self-worth and family value. 10．What mainly enabled the author to bear the burden of work? A．Abundant exposure to entertainment. B．Satisfaction gained from social work. C．Inborn abilities to handle work stress. D．Pride in shouldering family obligations. 11．Which of the following can best describe the author’s character? A．Determined and independent. B．Responsible but innocent. C．Family-oriented and humorous. D．Ambitious but stubborn. 12．What did the author’s father make her understand? A．Don’t abandon her moral principles. B．Don’t be pessimistic about her identity. C．Try to express her dissatisfaction in a free way. D．Try to make a distinction between work and life. 13．Which of the following is the message the author wants to convey? A．Success isn’t always guaranteed by hard work alone. B．Family support can alleviate the pain of challenging work. C．Don’t regard work achievement as a criterion for defining oneself. D．Social expectations may lead individuals away from their genuine goals. （2024·河北张家口·三模）The British accent of Cary Gran has finally been revealed after a fellow actor tracked down a secretly tape recording of the Bristol-born big screen superstar. Jason Isaacs, who plays Cary Grant in a coming ITV biopic (传记片), said that although setting his mind on figuring out the actor’s real accent, he had become upset by the absence of interviews with Cary Grant. The star, whose death aged 82 in 1986 brought to an end one of the 20th century’s greatest screen careers, rarely spoke in public and would always adopt a mid-American accent for the cameras Isaacs, 60, said this week that after some “detective work”, he found out about an interview Cary Grant gave to a student from the University of Iowa months before his death.

Isaacs said of listening to the tape: “I felt like I’d finally made a real connection with him and that’s the voice you hear on screen in Archie. It’s more English than he is in the movies. People think they remember Cary Grant’s voice but what they remember is Tony Curtis in Some Like It Hot.” The ITV biopic focuses on Grant’s troubled family relationships.

Three-year-old Kate had fallen acutely ill; she had a fever, reddened eyes, a rash and some swelling in her hands and tongue. At first, the puzzled doctors thought she had influenza, but when her condition didn’t improve, the Xus returned to the emergency room, where a doctor by chance had prior experience with an acute inflammatory (炎症性的) reaction in the blood vessels known as Kawasaki disease. Though rare, it’s the leading cause of acquired heart disease in babies and young children, and its cause and triggers remain somewhat mysterious. The doctor knew how to treat it: He ordered a dose of intravenous immunoglobulin, and eventually Kate shook off the illness without suffering damage to her heart. Xu remembers being curious about her sister’s dramatic condition and was amazed that the grown-ups couldn’t answer her questions about why it was so hard to detect. “In my mind, it was this mystery, she says. ”It was a puzzle I wanted to solve. “ A decade later, wanting to enter a high school science fair, she had an idea: ”What if we had a doctor in our pocket?“ So she created just that: Using AT, Xu designed an algorithm(算法) that uses visual data to diagnose (诊断) Kawasaki disease based on five physical symptoms. The technology works the same way as apps that can identify birds and plants with photos you’ve taken on your cellphone. Worried parents can upload a photo that they have taken of their child, and the technology will scan the image for symptoms of Kawasaki disease, which often have a strong visual element, such as a rash or a swollen tongue. Xu’s invention has been applied as a web app on the Kawasaki Disease Foundation’s website without charge. ”The technology could also be developed for recognizing auto-immune and rheumatological (风湿病学的) diseases, “ she says. ”It means a lot to me. I want to use Al to help people live happier and healthier lives. “ 18．Why was Kawasaki disease so hard to diagnose? A．It had no symptoms. B．It had never been known before. C．It could be confused with influenza. D．It couldn’t be diagnosed by medical instruments. 19．What’s the function of the first three paragraphs? A．To describe the bad results of the disease. B．To introduce a case remaining mysterious. C．To show why Xu developed the technology. D．To prove doctors should accumulate clinical experience. 20．What’s the advantage of Xu’s invention? A．It is convenient and cheap. B．It can take the place of doctors. C．It can treat Kawasaki disease quickly. D．It can diagnose Kawasaki disease via scanned pictures. 21．What can be learned from the text? A．The technology is an AI-powered diagnosed tool. B．Xu had the idea of the technology when Kate was treated. C．The technology can’t be applied to diagnose other diseases. D．Influenza is the leading reason of acquired heart disease in babies. （23-24高二上·江苏泰州·期末）My grandma passed away last week. My mum began the painful yet necessary task of sorting through her belongings. “Is there anything you want from grandma’s flat?” Mum texted me. “Her aloe (芦荟), please.” I required zero thinking time. Sometime around 1975, Grandma, always believing good things would happen in the future, received this plant as a gift, which she appreciated and placed in her doorway. It came from the local butcher. Five years later, my mum married the butcher’s son and had me. Grandma revealed to me this particular plant was a living relationship between the two families. And so was I. Recently, whenever we visited Grandma’s flat, I attempted to fix this concept in my children’s minds. “That was a gift your great-grandma bought your other great-grandma! It’s older than me!” Then my kids would nod and ask Grandma for a sweet. Numerous times, Grandma gave me cuttings or clippings of the plant, hoping I might raise my own and continue the legend. Yet, every time, my new branch died with my awful gardening skills. But that didn’t used to matter, because I could turn to Grandma, who would wait and accept my disturbance without becoming upset. Then I got another clipping and tried again. But now I can’t. So, I decided that the plant will go and live with Ann, my mother-in-law, who is a genius with a greenhouse. The plan is for Ann to keep hold of the original plant. In time, she can teach me how to deal with its cuttings properly, and then maybe one day I can settle the plant in my place. In the meantime, Ann will allocate (分配) clippings among my relatives, as Grandma used to do. My wife’s two sisters, for example, are both better at tending plants than I am, so it is quite imaginable they, too, will offer cuttings of the plant to their partners, spreading this loving plant across my entire extended family. 22．Why did the author want his grandma’s aloe? A．He wanted to pass it down to others. B．He showed a preference for gardening. C．He had a pleasant memory of the plant. D．He received it as a gift from his grandma. 23．Which of the following best describes the author’s grandma? A．Optimistic and patient. B．Generous and helpful. C．Honest and fashionable. D．Humorous and skillful. 24．The author took the aloe to his mother-in-law to A．display his skills in gardening B．have the plant better cared for C．announce his grandma’s death D．protect the plant from dying out 25．What may be the best title for the text? A．Aloe: my family bond B．Aloe: a mysterious plant C．Grandma: my life coach D．Grandma: a lovely gardener （23-24高三上·上海青浦·期末）I write this on a spring morning, in the van I have called home for two years now. From one small window, I have a view of joggers pounding the sunny path by the Oxford Canal, and the other looks onto the busy railway line along which trains travel from Southampton Docks to Birmingham. The woods where I’ve parked my van have grown up between them. This ancient van, a vehicle designed for freedom and the open road, has proved a stable solution for surviving the current housing crisis. I became a travel writer after my studies ended, committing to brief “residencies” with museums and art centres—where temporary accommodation is often provided in exchange for producing new work about a community. Over the years that followed, living and working on location in the polar regions or Scandinavia or the Alps, not settling down for very long, meant wherever I landed was always “home”. During the pandemic it was necessary to adopt a more permanent engagement with locality. Oxford had often drawn me back. It’s a crossroads of reality and the imagination, the perfect city for a writer. It takes a surprising amount of work to keep a tiny home in order: buying a used van online; ensuring the smooth running of a gas cooker and car batteries; fetching water and emptying the mobile toilet. I began to enjoy taking care of my immediate surroundings. Over the summer, I worked to turn waste-ground into a wild garden, replacing weeds with wild plants. I made friends with the self-sufficient boaters living nearby, always ready to share knowledge on the low-carbon simplicity of life without electricity. I’ve learnt that comfort can be found away from the bright infrastructure of urban life: in watching the birds that nest in the tree and the foxes playing in the woods at dawn, in making a cup of coffee on a spring morning. My step away from conventional housing has been a necessary act of personal economy, but the benefits include taking nothing for granted, and unexpected delight. 26．Why did the writer make the van his home? A．Because the feature of the van and that of his occupation are matching. B．Because the van is equivalent to a crossroads of reality and the imagination. C．Because the views of joggers and trains outside the van can relieve his pressure. D．Because living and working on location in the polar regions are appealing to him. 27．What does “immediate surroundings” in Paragraph 6 refer to? A．a used van B．a gas cooker C．a wild garden D．a mobile toilet 28．Which of the following is the benefit of unconventional housing? A．Joining joggers to do exercise. B．Keeping a tiny home in order easily. C．Improving the economy of Oxford. D．Embracing delightful surprises. 29．What’s the writer’s attitude towards living in the van? A．Cautious. B．Ironical. C．Favorable. D．Neutral. （2024·上海金山·一模）One summer night in a seaside cottage, a boy felt himself lifted from bed. Then, with the swiftness of a dream, he was held in his father’s arms out onto the nearby beach. Overhead the sky blazed with stars. “Watch!” Incredibly, as his father spoke, one of the stars moved. In a line of golden fire it flashed across the astonished heavens. And before the wonder of this could fade, another star leaped from its place, then another, plunging towards the restless sea. “What’s this?” the child whispered. “Shooting stars. They come every year on a certain August night. I thought you’d like to see the show.” That was all: just an unexpected glimpse of something mysterious and beautiful. But, back in bed, the child stared for a long time into the dark, knowing that all around the quiet house, the night was full of the silent music of the falling stars. Decades have passed, but I remember that night still, because I was the fortunate boy whose father believed that a new experience was more important for a small boy than an unbroken night’s sleep. No doubt I had all the usual childhood entertainment, but those are forgotten now. What I remember is the night of the shooting stars, and the day we rode in a caboose (列车末尾的职工车厢), the telegraph we made that really worked, and the “trophy table” in the dining room where we children were encouraged to exhibit things we had found — anything unusual or beautiful — snake skins, seashells, flowers, arrowheads... I remember the thought-provoking (引人深思的) books left by my bedside that pushed back my horizons and sometimes actually changed my life. My father had, to a marvellous degree, the gift of opening doors for his children, of leading them into areas of splendid newness. This subtle art of adding dimensions to a child’s world doesn’t necessarily require a great deal of time. It simply involves doing things more often with our children instead of for them or to them. 30．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 4 mean? A．The child was still immersed in the beautiful scenery just now. B．The child was too frightened to fall asleep because of darkness. C．The child wanted to listen more to the music about falling stars. D．The child felt grateful to his father for what he showed him. 31．All the things the author remember from his childhood are ________. A．unusual and novel B．dangerous and demanding C．strange and uncommon D．educational and thought-provoking 32．What can we learn from the last paragraph? A．Parents should interfere more with their children’s learning. B．Parents should push their children to try to do everything on their own. C．Parents should devote energy to exploring new things for their children. D．Parents should encourage children to be curious and explore new things in life. 33．What’s the best title for this passage? A．Limitless knowledge B．Father, the hero of my life C．Curiosity aroused that night D．The unusual things in my life （2022·浙江金华·模拟预测）As a hockey parent, while watching my son played from Mite to Bantam, House League to Travel, I’ve learned that losing may be best for kids. In his third season in 2019, my son’s team never lost more than three straight games. There was happiness, boasting, celebration, pizza. In short, it was a typically good youth hockey season. He improved as a player, but did not much change as a person. However, what happened the next year added its story to the legends of sporting incompetence. Not merely weak but prettily bad, this team lost 40 of their first 50 games, most of the defeats coming in the course of two losing streaks. For a time, I worried that these streaks would kill my child’s love of the game. But that’s not what happened. As bad as it got, the losing was clarifying. It weeded out the kids who were in it less for the game than the glory, leaving just the die-hards behind. What started as a list of 17 of the team was cut down to 12. It was especially instructive for the kids. It taught him a great truth of the world: For everyone good, there is someone better. What’s more, the kids were learning the game in a way that only losing can teach. Each player got to play everywhere, to learn and appreciate the role of every position on the ice. They kept an eye on their opponents too, studying and incorporating the tricks of success. In an effort to break the streak, they went back to basics, accepted the wisdom of the hockey ancients: If playing like a team, they can defeat a collection of all-stars; If doing small and unappreciated tasks well, they can get the goal. This new team had character and could never be counted out, no matter the score. They had learned the most important lesson: You can lose without being beaten. They squeaked into the state tournament, then made it all the way to the final, where the winner was decided in overtime. When they lost that game and went into the handshake line, it was not as runners-up but as a team that had been made into winners in the only way that will stick — by losing. 34．What does the author think about the son’s team in the third season in 2019? A．The team had a bad performance. B．The team didn’t live up to the author’s expectations. C．The team played typically well and won all the games. D．The team didn’t have the spirit of facing failure. 35．What does the underlined word “clarify” refer to? A．The losing made the kids better understand hockey. B．The losing helped the kids learn a great truth of the world. C．The losing separated true player from those playing for glory. D．The losing boosted the kids’ teamwork. 36．According to the author, what have the son’s team learned? A．For everything big, there is something bigger. B．Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. C．God helps those who help themselves. D．The hardest battle you’re going to fight is the battle to be just you. 37．What is the best title for the passage? A．How Kids Can Deal With Losing B．What Kids Can Learn From Losing C．Why Kids Can Benefit From Losing D．How Kids Can Get Over From Losing （18-19高一下·山东·阶段练习）Dale Carnegie(戴尔·卡耐基) was an American writer and lecturer, and the developer of famous courses in self-improvement, salesmanship, corporate training, public speaking and interpersonal skills. Born in 1888 in Maryville, Missouri, Carnegie was a poor farmer's boy. His family moved to Belton, Missouri when he was a small child. In his teens, though still having to get up at 4 am every day to milk his parents' cows, he managed to obtain an education at the State Teacher's College in Warrensburg. His first job after college was selling correspondence courses. He moved on to selling bacon, soap, and lard（猪油）for Armour&Company. After saving $500, Dale Carnegie quit sales in 1911 in order to achieve a lifelong dream of becoming a lecturer. He ended up instead attending the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York, but found little success as an actor. Later he got the idea to teach public speaking. In his first session, he suggested that students speak about "something that made them angry", and discovered the technique that made speakers unafraid to address a public audience. From its beginning, the Dale Carnegie Course developed. Carnegie had made use of the average American's desire to have more self-confidence. Perhaps one of Carnegie's most successful marketing moves was to change the spelling of his last name from "Carnagey" to Carnegie, at a time when Andrew Carnegie was a widely recognized name. Carnegie's works include Lincoln the Unknown (1932), Public Speaking and Influencing Men in Business (1937), and How to Stop Worrying and Start Living (1948). His greatest achievement, however, was when Simon &. Schuster published How to Win Friends and Influence People. The book was a bestseller from 1936. By the time of Carnegie's death, the book had sold five million copies in 31 languages, and there had been 450,000 graduates of his Dale Carnegie Institute. Carnegie died at his home in New York in 1955. 38．What do you think of Dale Carnegie's childhood? A．Joyful. B．Difficult. C．Lonely. D．Boring. 39．Which of the following is important for Dale Carnegie? A．Helping people to get wealthy. B．Encouraging one to trust himself. C．Teaching people speaking skills. D．Advising people to live happily. 40．Why did Dale Carnegie change his last name? A．To get more help and support. B．To replace Andrew Carnegie. C．To avoid misunderstanding. D．To become more famous. 41．Which of the following is Dale Carnegie's most successful work? A．Lincoln the Unknown B．How to Win Friends and Influence People C．How to Stop Worrying and Start Living D．Public Speaking and Influencing Men in Business 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 参考答案： 1．B 2．C 3．C 4．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要介绍了出生在荷兰的Robert van Gulik成长背景及其所取得的成就。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The family stayed in various areas of East Asia for most of Robert’s youth. This experience contributed to his appreciation for cultures and mastery of several languages.(罗伯特的童年大部分时间都在东亚各地度过。这段经历让他对各种文化有了更深的了解，并掌握了多种语言。)”可知，Robert小时候一家人生活在东亚，这激发了罗伯特对东方文化的热爱。故选B项。 2．主旨大意题。根据第二段“Robert was a hardworking academic, collector of art and manuscripts, and translator of ancient writings. He studied and trained to become a master musician on the Chinese guqin, and eventually wrote two books on the instrument. Similarly, his skills as an artist in the traditional Chinese style and knowledge of calligraphy were unparalleled. He wrote and published a number of non-fiction, scholarly articles and books on Chinese music, art, and literature, as well as Chinese culture and folk legends. (罗伯特是一位勤奋的学者、艺术品和手稿收藏家以及古文翻译家。他学习和训练成为中国古琴大师，并最终写了两本关于古琴的书。同样，他作为一名艺术家在中国传统风格方面的技巧和书法知识也是无与伦比的。他撰写并出版了许多关于中国音乐、艺术和文学以及中国文化和民间传说的非小说、学术文章和书籍。)”可知，Robert是一个学着，艺术和手稿收藏家，翻译古代作品，他是中国古琴大师，写过两本乐器的书籍，他的中国传统风格的艺术几千和书法知识非凡，还撰写很多中国音乐、艺术、文学以及中国文化和传统的纪实、学术文章和书籍，由此可知，本段主要讲述的是Robert的所取得的成就。故选C项。 3．推理判断题。根据第三段中的“In 1940, Robert came across a little-known and anonymous(匿名的)18th-century Chinese novel that would take his career down an unplanned pathway and result in the public fame he never anticipated. The novel, titled Four Great Strange Cases of Empress Wu’s Reign, was a fictional account of the deeds of Judge Dee, one of the heroes of traditional Chinese detective fiction, and was set in the 7th-century Tang Dynasty. Fascinated, Robert not only translated the novel into English, he also did some research on the history of Chinese Penal Code and other legal literature of the period. It was not until 1949 that Robert was able to publish his translation —Dee Goong An: Three Murder Cases Solved by Judge Dee. Robert’s Chinese mysteries comprise over 10 novels and short-story volumes, recording the career of Chinese detective called Di Renjie. Interestingly, the tales first found fame in oriental(东方的)editions, before being translated into English in 1957. (1940 年，罗伯特偶然发现了一本鲜为人知的匿名 18 世纪中国小说，这本小说将他的职业生涯推向了一条意想不到的道路，并让他获得了从未预料到的公众名声。这本名为《武则天统治时期的四大奇案》的小说虚构了中国传统侦探小说英雄之一狄仁杰的事迹，故事背景设定在 7 世纪的唐朝。罗伯特对这本小说十分着迷，他不仅将这本小说翻译成英文，还对中国刑法史和当时其他法律文献做了一些研究。直到 1949 年，罗伯特才得以出版他的译作《狄公案：狄仁杰破获的三起谋杀案》。罗伯特的中国悬疑小说包括 10 多部小说和短篇小说集，记录了中国侦探狄仁杰的职业生涯。有趣的是，这些故事首先在东方版本中成名，然后于 1957 年被翻译成英文)”可知，Robert把中国文学传播给了更广泛的受众导致罗伯特名声大噪。故选C项。 4．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Through all the novels by Robert, he impressively brings to life the sights and sounds of daily Chinese life in the past. His passionate devotion and respect for the Chinese culture was never discounted, yet he also appreciated the purpose of fiction. (罗伯特的小说生动再现了中国古代日常生活的景象和声音，令人印象深刻。他对中国文化的热爱和尊重从未被忽视，但他也理解小说的意义。）”，由此可推断，Robert的翻译生动而忠实。故选A项。 5．C 6．C 7．A 8．B 9．A 【分析】这是一篇记叙文。作者通过自己患有自闭症的儿子和智能助手Siri之间的对话，发现这类智能助手能帮助儿子培养逻辑，提升他与人交流的能力，表明我们不应该只想到技术会把我们孤立，而应该看到智能助手对我们的帮助。 5．推理判断题。根据第一段前三句“Just how bad of a mother am I, I silently wondered, as I watched my 13-year-old son deep in conversation with Siri. Gus has autism (自闭症), and Siri, Apple's “intelligent personal assistant” on the iPhone, is currently his BFF(Best Friend Forever). Obsessed with weather formations, Gus had spent the past hour exploring the difference between isolated and scaltered thunderstorms—an hour during which, thank God, I didn't have to discuss with him myself. (当我看着13岁的儿子与Siri深入交谈时，我默默地想知道我是一个多么糟糕的母亲。Gus患有自闭症，苹果iPhone上的“智能个人助理”Siri目前是他的BFF（永远的好朋友）。Gus痴迷于天气的形成，在过去的一个小时里，他一直在探索两种局部雷阵雨（isolated和scaltered）之间的区别——感谢上帝，在这一个小时内，我不必亲自与他讨论。)”可知，这位母亲看到儿子和Siri聊天，一方面觉得自己是一位糟糕的母亲，有点内疚，另一方面又因为不用亲自和儿子探讨而感谢上帝，说明她同时也感到宽慰、释然。故选C项。 6．推理判断题。根据第一段第二句“Gus has autism (自闭症), and Siri, Apple's “intelligent personal assistant” on the iPhone, is currently his BFF(Best Friend Forever).( Gus患有自闭症，苹果iPhone上的“智能个人助理”Siri目前是他的BFF（永远的好朋友）。)”可知，Gus患有自闭症。根据第四段最后一句“For most of my son's 13 years of existence, this has not been the case. (在我儿子13年的大部分时间里，情况并非如此。)”可知，因为身体问题，Gus大部分时间都不能很好的和他人谈话。根据第六段第一句“The developers of intelligent assistants recognize their potential usefulness for those with speech and communication problems (智能助手的开发人员认识到它们对那些有说话和交流问题的人的潜在用处)”可知，类似Siri这样的智能助手对有说话和交流障碍的人有帮助，而Gus就是被Siri帮助的例子，故可推断出他是因为自闭症而与人交流受阻。故选C项。 7．推理判断题。根据第一段第三句“Obsessed with weather formations, Gus had spent the past hour exploring the difference between isolated and scaltered thunderstorms—an hour during which, thank God, I didn't have to discuss with him myself. (Gus痴迷于天气的形成，在过去的一个小时里，他一直在探索两种局部雷阵雨（isolated和scaltered）之间的区别——感谢上帝，在这一个小时内，我不必亲自与他讨论。)”可知，Siri帮助Gus研究自己喜欢的天气问题。根据第四段最后两句“Admittedly, it was about different species of turtles which might not have been my choice of topic, but it was back and forth, and followed a logic. For most of my son's 13 years of existence, this has not been the case. (诚然，这是关于不同种类的海龟，这可能不是我选择的主题，但它是一来一回的，遵循了一个逻辑。在我儿子13年的大部分时间里，情况并非如此。)”可知，Siri帮助Gus培养与人交谈时的逻辑。根据第四段一二句“My son's practice conversations with Siri are starting to translate into increased facility with actual humans. Yesterday I had the longest ever conversation with him. (我儿子与Siri的练习对话开始转化为与真人的互动。昨天我和他进行了有史以来最长的一次谈话。)”可知，Siri帮助Gus提升与他人互动的能力。故B项、C项、D项所说都符合文意。故选A项。 8．推理判断题。根据第五段最后一句“In a world where the commonly held wisdom is that technology isolates us, it's worth considering another side of the story (在一个普遍认为技术将我们孤立的世界里，值得考虑故事的另一面）。可推测出作者从儿子和Siri的故事中感悟到技术可能并不是大家想的那样将人们孤立，换句话说即技术可能起到积极作用。根据第六段第一句“The developers of intelligent assistants recognize their potential usefulness for those with speech and communication problems (智能助手的开发人员认识到它们对那些有说话和交流问题的人的潜在用处)”可知，类似Siri这样的智能助手对有说话和交流障碍的人有帮助，故可推测出Siri有时比人类更能帮助某一类人群。故选B项。 9．推理判断题。根据第六段第一句“The developers of intelligent assistants recognize their potential usefulness for those with speech and communication problems, and some are currently pondering new ways in which the assistants can help. (智能助手的开发人员认识到它们对那些有说话和交流问题的人的潜在用处，一些人目前正在思考助手可以提供帮助的新方法。)”可知，研究人员正在研究智能助手可能提供帮助的办法，故可推测出将来智能助手的应用将会更广泛。故选A项。 10．D 11．A 12．D 13．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过叙述作者小时候为邻居打扫房间赚取零花钱的经历，展现了作者成长过程中的心路历程。作者不仅享受到了劳动带来的物质满足和家人的肯定，也学会了面对困难时坚持和自我尊重的重要性。 10．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Working for her brought me a sense of pride, not only because I could immerse myself in little luxuries like movies and candy, but also because I contributed half of my earnings to my mother, ensuring they were used for necessities.(为她工作给我带来了一种自豪感，不仅因为我可以沉浸在像电影和糖果这样的小奢侈品中，还因为我把一半的收入捐给了我母亲，确保这些收入用于生活必需品)”可知，是承担家庭责任带来的自豪感让作者能够承受工作的重担。故选D项。 11．推理判断题。根据第三段中“After struggling to move the piano, my limbs ached terribly. Despite wanting to decline or voice my discomfort, I feared losing my job and the independence and respect it afforded me.(挣扎着搬动钢琴后，我的四肢痛得厉害。尽管我想拒绝或表达我的不适，但我害怕失去我的工作，失去它给我的独立和尊重)”可知，尽管很辛苦，但作者选择了坚持，由此推知她一个意志坚定的人(determined)；根据第二段中“I had a status that doing routine chores in my house did not provide — and it earned me a slow smile and confirmations that I was adult-like, not childlike.(我的地位是做家务所没有的——这让我得到了一个缓慢的微笑，一个成年人赞许的点头。证明了我是成年人，而不是孩子)”可知，作者认为自己是成年人，不是孩子，说明她的独立(independent)。故选A项。 12．细节理解题。根据第四段中父亲的话“Whatever the work is, do it well — not for the boss but for yourself. You make the job; it doesn’t make you. You are not the work you do; you are the person you are.(不管是什么工作，都要做好——不是为了老板，而是为了你自己。是你去完成这份工作；不是工作影响你。你所做的工作不能代表你；你就是你自己)”可知，作者的父亲让她明白要试着把工作和生活区分开来。故选D项。 13．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“I’ve had many kinds of jobs, but since that conversation with my father, I have never considered the level of labor to be the measure of myself, and I have never placed the security of a job above my self-worth and family value.(我做过很多种工作，但自从和父亲的那次谈话之后，我就不再把工作水平作为衡量自己的标准，也不再把工作的安全感置于自我价值和家庭价值之上)”可知，作者认为不能把工作成绩作为衡量自己的标准，不把工作置于自我价值和家庭价值之上。故选C项。 14．A 15．D 16．B 17．C 【导语】本文一篇记叙文。在饰演已故明星Cary Grant这个角色之前，为了真实再现Cary Grant的声音，Jason Isaacs设法找到了Cary Grant生前的谈话录音，从而可以模仿他的真实声音。因为大家熟悉的Cary Grant的声音都是他在电影里的声音，这与他真实的声音不同。 14．推理判断题。根据第二段中“Jason Isaacs, who plays Cary Grant in a coming ITV biopic(传记片), said that although setting his mind on figuring out the actor’s real accent, he had become upset by the absence of interviews with Cary Grant. (在即将上映的ITV传记片中扮演加里·格兰特的杰森·艾萨克斯说，虽然他下定决心要弄清楚加里·格兰特的真实口音，但他对没有采访加里·格兰特感到不安。)”可推知，Isaacs下定决心找到有关Cary Grant的录音，是想在电影中真实地再现他的声音。故选A。 15．推理判断题。根据第四段中“The student’s classmate secretly recorded the interview in which Cary Grant spoke about his hatred(厌恶) of being approached by fans.

Yet, every time, my new branch died with my awful gardening skills. But that didn’t used to matter, because I could turn to Grandma, who would wait and accept my disturbance without becoming upset. Then I got another clipping and tried again. But now I can’t. So, I decided that the plant will go and live with Ann, my mother-in-law, who is a genius with a greenhouse.(奶奶给了我很多次这种植物的剪枝，希望我能自己养，继续这个传说。然而，每一次，我的新枝条都因我糟糕的园艺技能而枯萎。但这在过去并不重要，因为我可以求助于奶奶，她会等着接受我的打扰，而不会感到不安。然后我又剪了一枝，然后再试了一次。但现在我不能了。所以，我决定让这株植物去和我的岳母住在一起，她是一个养温室绿植的天才)”可知，作者把芦荟带给了他的岳母是为了让植物得到更好的照顾。故选B项。 25．主旨大意题。根据第一段“My grandma passed away last week.

He improved as a player, but did not much change as a person.(2019年是我儿子的第三个赛季，他所在的球队从未输过3场以上的比赛。有快乐，有吹嘘，有庆祝，有披萨。简而言之，这是一个典型的优秀青年曲棍球赛季。作为一名球员，他有了进步，但作为一个人，他并没有太大的变化)”可知，2019年的第三个赛季，作者儿子的球队非常优秀，虽然失败过，但是还是很开心，并没有真正体会到失败带给他们的影响。由此推知，作者认为儿子的球队缺乏面对失败的精神。故选D。 35．指代猜测题。根据划线单词下文“It weeded out the kids who were in it less for the game than the glory, leaving just the die-hards behind.(它淘汰了那些不是为了比赛，而是为了荣誉的孩子，只留下了顽固分子)”可知，虽然孩子的球队比赛失败，但是失败让一切变得很明朗，因为这淘汰了那些不是为了比赛，而是为了荣誉的孩子，只留下了顽固分子。由此可推知，划线单词clarify代指下文内容，即失败将真正的球员和为荣誉而战的球员分开了。故选C。 36．推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“They had learned the most important lesson: You can lose without being beaten. They squeaked into the state tournament, then made it all the way to the final, where the winner was decided in overtime.

Schuster published How to Win Friends and Influence People.”可知，《人性的弱点》是卡耐基最成功的著作，故B项正确。 答案第1页，共2页 答案第1页，共2页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
