专项练习
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
[2024·广东省湛江市高三一模]By the time I took Kicker home, I was living in a van (旅居房车), so he was thrown into van life from day one. At this point, I knew how to make him an outgoing and adaptable dog, and my life was far more adventurous than it had been...
Right out of the gate, I took him to ski touring, which is a lot like crosscountry skiing but in wilder terrain. At first, Kicker would just stay nestled (依偎) in my jacket, but as he got stronger, he would run on his own for a little while before I carried him again.
We also went on some winter camping adventures in the high peaks of the Uinta Mountains, and we tried snow kiting. He ran around while I skied. He learned to speedfly and kiteboard. One time he vomited (呕吐) all over the new cushions on my bed. Boy, did that stay smelly for days! Still, living in a van with a dog was great. With each new day, he got stronger and more independent.
I had dreamed of visiting Alaska since I was a child, so being able to share that trip with Kicker felt incredible. There's something to be said about shared experiences and how they help develop a strong bond. Together we kayaked, snowmobiled, and even ended up exploring deep blue ice caves in Worthington Glacier. Kicker learned to come snowboarding with me in the mountains of Alaska. He would hike part of the way, and I would carry him the rest. I would always let him run next to me as I boarded, but I usually ended up putting him on my shoulders for the rest of the ride down—he had grown far too big to fit in my jacket.
Having a dog has been one of the most rewarding things in my life. For me, it's about the time spent together exploring, sharing experiences, working through challenging situations, snuggling, and ultimately taking care of one another.
1.What was Kicker like when he was first taken home by the author?
A.Sick and pitiful.
B.Small and weak.
C.Happy and active.
D.Outgoing and adventurous.
2.Why was the incident of Kicker's vomiting mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A.To illustrate how hard life is in a van.
B.To indicate that raising Kicker was not all roses.
C.To show the importance of taking good care of a pet.
D.To warn us of the trouble a pet can bring to us on a trip.
3.What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A.What tricks Kicker learned in Alaska.
B.What great experiences the author had.
C.How the author realized his childhood dream.
D.How much the author enjoyed Kicker's company.
4.What is special about the author's relationship with Kicker?
A.They bond through shared adventures.
B.They help each other to become stronger.
C.They bond through giving each other rewards.
D.They depend on each other in life's hardest times.

[2024·安徽省十校联盟摸底考]In today's digital age when you can get information quickly, there is a concern about children developing an appreciation for reading printed books. That's why communities in Australia have come up with a way to convey a love of books in the younger generations.
To solve this problem, communities are bringing libraries to where the kids are: in the streets. The little libraries consist of boxes that are set up outside of houses or public spaces and are filled with books. People can take books they haven't read and donate ones they have to the libraries.
Street Library Australia, a nonprofit, was started by Nick Lowe after he saw a Little Free Library on a trip to the USA. After an initial workshop in 2015 to build 30 libraries, the idea mushroomed and now there are 4,500 registered street libraries in Australia. “It just grew and grew,” he said.
The libraries come in all shapes and sizes. These libraries are completely voluntary and anyone can start one.
Pamela Zielke, who runs a library called Pam's Pantry, gives out toys and craft supplies along with books. An early childhood educator, she started her library with the goal of rescuing books from dustbins. But the libraries are doing much more than just providing books and other donated items to people. The street libraries are also building community. “It's a little stopping place outside your house,” said Lowe. “It's a great way to meet people in your neighborhood who are also book lovers, recycle books, and find new books.”
These Little Street Libraries provided a valuable service during the outbreak of COVID19 and the popularity has not waned. People use them to find books on specific hobbies like cooking, children are developing a love of reading books, and it is more convenient than going to a bookstore or a brickandmortar library. But even more importantly, with a shared interest, the libraries are bringing communities closer together.
5.What might make people in Australia worried nowadays?
A.The popularity of digital books.
B.The poor service of community education.
C.The shortage of the street libraries.
D.Children losing interest in printed books.
6.What do we know about Nick Lowe?
A.He must be a citizen of the USA.
B.He was inspired by a trip to the United States.
C.He has set up a total of 30 street libraries in Australia.
D.He made a fortune through Street Library Australia.
7.What does the author intend to tell us by mentioning Pamela Zielke?
A.We should do all we can to support street libraries.
B.Many more street libraries will be set up in Australia.
C.Anyone can follow her example and start a street library.
D.It is of great benefit to run a street library in your neighborhood.
8.What does the underlined word “waned” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A.Turned weaker. B.Become different.
C.Spread widely. D.Won recognition.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。为了在数字时代传播对书籍的热爱,澳大利亚街头建了很多图书馆。
5.答案与解析:D 细节理解题。根据第一段“there is a concern about children developing an appreciation for reading printed books.”可知,如今令澳大利亚人感到担忧的是孩子们对印刷的书籍失去兴趣。
6.答案与解析:B 推理判断题。根据第三段“Street Library...was started by Nick Lowe after he saw a Little Free Library on a trip to the USA.”可推知,Nick Lowe从美国的一次旅行中获得灵感,创办了街头图书馆。
7.答案与解析:C 推理判断题。根据第四段“anyone can start one”可知,第五段提出Pamela Zielke经营着一家名为Pam's Pantry的图书馆,是为了佐证第四段提到的“任何人都可以以她为榜样,建立图书馆”这个观点。
8.答案与解析:A 词义猜测题。根据画线词后面的内容“...children are developing a love of reading books, and it is more convenient than going to a bookstore ...”可知,街头图书馆受欢迎程度没有减弱。故选A项。

[2024·江苏省苏州市期中调研]
Keep current with facts about electric cars
Sales of electric vehicles (EV) grew 40 percent last year worldwide. Stateside, nearly a third of drivers want their next car to be electric. __1__ Almost 100 pureelectric vehicles are set to come into the market by the end of 2024.Many manufacturers, including GM, Jeep, and Volvo, have promised to offer fully electric lineups before this decade is done.
__2__ Tesla's upcoming reimagined Roadster will start at $200,000, while Tesla's current cheapest model is $41,000. Plenty of other EVs are even more affordable. Chevy, Nissan, and Hyundai all offer models for around $30,000. When assessing the cost of an EV, keep in mind that some models will even qualify you for a federal tax credit (联邦税收抵免) of up to $7,500. __3__ A typical EV owner spends between $6,000 and $10,000 less than a conventional car owner on vehicle maintenance. One reason: EVs don't have transmissions or clutches, two of the costliest parts to repair.
There are about 22,000 public charging ports nationwide, a number that is expected to be more than three times by 2023.But for most EV owners, charging at home is the way to go. __4__
The average EV gets about 250 miles from a full charge, which is far less than the distance most gaspowered cars can go on a full tank. But EVs are catching up. Tesla comes the closest. Its newer 2021 version gets closer to 500. __5__ BMW makes a fastcharging system that adds about 60 miles of drive time in about six minutes.
A.They'll have options.
B.But electric cars are nothing new.
C.Then there are the longterm savings.
D.Charging technology is also improving.
E.Some EVs are still eyewateringly expensive.
F.The battery is usually the entire floor of the vehicle.
G.It takes longer, but you can do it overnight when electricity is cheapest.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了当今电动汽车的现状,以及未来的发展趋势。
1.答案与解析:A 根据上文“在美国,有大约三分之一司机的下一辆汽车会选择电动车”和下文“到2024年末,有将近100辆纯电动汽车进入市场”可知,选项承接上文,说明消费者面临的选择更多了。They指代的是上文的drivers。故A选项“因此他们会有更多的选择”切题。
2.答案与解析:E 根据下文“特斯拉即将推出的新款Roadster起价为20万美元,而特斯拉目前最便宜的车型为4.1万美元”可知,选项承接下文说明现在的电动车价格都很贵。E选项“一些电动汽车仍然昂贵得令人瞠目结舌”,和下文呼应,符合语境。
3.答案与解析:C 根据下文“一个普通的电动汽车车主在汽车维护上的花费比普通汽车车主少6 000到10 000美元”可知,将电动车主和传统车主花费的钱对比,凸显电动汽车花费的少。故C选项“而且还能长期的省钱”呼应下文,符合语境。
4.答案与解析:G 根据上文“对大多数电动车车主来说,在家充电会是一个好办法”可知,选项这里要介绍在家充电的好处,故G选项“这会花更多的时间,但是你可以在电费最便宜的时候充一整晚”符合语境。
5.答案与解析:D 根据上文“电动汽车的平均充电里程约为250英里,远低于大多数汽油动力汽车在油箱加满后的行驶里程。但电动汽车正在迎头赶上。特斯拉最接近。新的2021版本接近500英里”可知,选项承接上文说明技术在不断进步。故D选项“充电技术还在不断创新”符合语境,且呼应下文BMW公司对于充电方面所付出的努力和创新。
Ⅲ.语法填空
[2023·全国甲卷]For thousands of years, people have told fables (寓言)1.________ (teach) a lesson or to pass on wisdom. Fables were part of the oral tradition of many early cultures, and the wellknown Aesop's fables date to the 2.________ (six) century B.C.Yet, the form of the fable still has values today, 3.________ Rachel Carson says in “A Fable for Tomorrow”.
Carson uses a simple, direct style common to fable. In fact, her style and tone (口吻) are seemingly directed at children. “There was once a town in the heart of America, 4.________ all life seemed to enjoy peaceful coexistence with its surroundings,” her fable begins, 5.________ (borrow) some familiar words from many ageold fables. Behind the simple style, however, is a serious message 6.________ (intend) for everyone.
7.________ (difference) from traditional fables, Carson's story ends with an accusation instead of a moral. She warns of the environmental dangers facing society, and she teaches that people must take responsibility 8.________ saving their environment.
The themes of traditional fables often deal with simple truths about everyday life. However, Carson's theme is a more weighty 9.________ (warn) about environmental destruction. Carson proves that a simple literary form that has been passed down through the ages can still 10.________ (employ) today to draw attention to important truths.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了寓言的形式在今天仍然具有价值。
1.答案与解析:to teach 考查非谓语动词。句意:几千年来,人们通过讲寓言来传授知识或传授智慧。根据句意可知,此处表达“来传授知识和智慧”,所以用不定式作目的状语。故填to teach。
2.答案与解析:sixth 考查序数词。句意:寓言是许多古代文化口述传统的一部分,而著名的伊索寓言可以追溯到公元前6世纪。century “世纪”前面要用序数词形式。故填sixth。
3.答案与解析:as 考查定语从句。句意:然而,正如雷切尔·卡森在《明日寓言》中所说,寓言的形式在今天仍然具有价值。引导非限定性定语从句,且有“正如”之意,用关系代词as引导。故填as。
4.答案与解析:where 考查定语从句。句意:“从前,在美国的中心地带有一个小镇,那里所有的生命似乎都和周围的环境一起享受着和平的生活,”她的寓言是这样开头的,借用了许多古老寓言中的一些熟悉的词。句中先行词为town,在非限定性定语从句中作地点状语,所以用关系副词where引导。故填where。
5.答案与解析:borrowing 考查非谓语动词。句意:“从前,在美国的中心地带有一个小镇,那里所有的生命似乎都和周围的环境一起享受着和平的生活,”她的寓言是这样开头的,借用了许多古老寓言中的一些熟悉的词。句中已有谓语动词,所以用非谓语动词形式。逻辑主语her fable与borrow之间为主动关系,所以用现在分词作状语。故填borrowing。
6.答案与解析:intended 考查非谓语动词。句意:然而,在简洁的风格背后,向每个人传达了重要的信息。be intended for打算为……所用,在句中作定语,所以用过去分词形式。故填intended。
7.答案与解析:Different 考查形容词。句意:与传统寓言不同,卡森的故事以一种指责而不是道德结束。be different from与……不同,所以用形容词作状语。故填Different。
8.答案与解析:for 考查介词。句意:她警告社会面临的环境危险,并教导人们必须承担起保护环境的责任。take responsibility for对……负责。故填for。
9.答案与解析:warning 考查名词。句意:然而,卡森的主题是对环境破坏的更严重警告。形容词weighty后接名词形式。根据句中不定冠词a可知,用可数名词的单数形式。故填warning。
10.答案与解析:be employed 考查语态。句意:卡森证明了一种简单的文学形式,已经代代相传,今天仍然可以用来吸引人们对重要真理的关注。从句主语a simple literary form与employ之间为被动关系,所以用被动语态。情态动词can后接动词原形。故填be employed。

[2024·广东省湛江市高三一模]By the time I took Kicker home, I was living in a van (旅居房车), so he was thrown into van life from day one. At this point, I knew how to make him an outgoing and adaptable dog, and my life was far more adventurous than it had been...
Right out of the gate, I took him to ski touring, which is a lot like crosscountry skiing but in wilder terrain. At first, Kicker would just stay nestled (依偎) in my jacket, but as he got stronger, he would run on his own for a little while before I carried him again.
We also went on some winter camping adventures in the high peaks of the Uinta Mountains, and we tried snow kiting. He ran around while I skied. He learned to speedfly and kiteboard. One time he vomited (呕吐) all over the new cushions on my bed. Boy, did that stay smelly for days! Still, living in a van with a dog was great. With each new day, he got stronger and more independent.
I had dreamed of visiting Alaska since I was a child, so being able to share that trip with Kicker felt incredible. There's something to be said about shared experiences and how they help develop a strong bond. Together we kayaked, snowmobiled, and even ended up exploring deep blue ice caves in Worthington Glacier. Kicker learned to come snowboarding with me in the mountains of Alaska. He would hike part of the way, and I would carry him the rest. I would always let him run next to me as I boarded, but I usually ended up putting him on my shoulders for the rest of the ride down—he had grown far too big to fit in my jacket.
Having a dog has been one of the most rewarding things in my life. For me, it's about the time spent together exploring, sharing experiences, working through challenging situations, snuggling, and ultimately taking care of one another.

[2024·安徽省十校联盟摸底考]In today's digital age when you can get information quickly, there is a concern about children developing an appreciation for reading printed books. That's why communities in Australia have come up with a way to convey a love of books in the younger generations.
To solve this problem, communities are bringing libraries to where the kids are: in the streets. The little libraries consist of boxes that are set up outside of houses or public spaces and are filled with books. People can take books they haven't read and donate ones they have to the libraries.
Street Library Australia, a nonprofit, was started by Nick Lowe after he saw a Little Free Library on a trip to the USA. After an initial workshop in 2015 to build 30 libraries, the idea mushroomed and now there are 4,500 registered street libraries in Australia. “It just grew and grew,” he said.
The libraries come in all shapes and sizes. These libraries are completely voluntary and anyone can start one.
Pamela Zielke, who runs a library called Pam's Pantry, gives out toys and craft supplies along with books. An early childhood educator, she started her library with the goal of rescuing books from dustbins. But the libraries are doing much more than just providing books and other donated items to people. The street libraries are also building community. “It's a little stopping place outside your house,” said Lowe. “It's a great way to meet people in your neighborhood who are also book lovers, recycle books, and find new books.”
These Little Street Libraries provided a valuable service during the outbreak of COVID19 and the popularity has not waned. People use them to find books on specific hobbies like cooking, children are developing a love of reading books, and it is more convenient than going to a bookstore or a brickandmortar library. But even more importantly, with a shared interest, the libraries are bringing communities closer together.
5.What might make people in Australia worried nowadays?
A.The popularity of digital books.
B.The poor service of community education.
C.The shortage of the street libraries.
D.Children losing interest in printed books.
6.What do we know about Nick Lowe?
A.He must be a citizen of the USA.
B.He was inspired by a trip to the United States.
C.He has set up a total of 30 street libraries in Australia.
D.He made a fortune through Street Library Australia.
7.What does the author intend to tell us by mentioning Pamela Zielke?
A.We should do all we can to support street libraries.
B.Many more street libraries will be set up in Australia.
C.Anyone can follow her example and start a street library.
D.It is of great benefit to run a street library in your neighborhood.
8.What does the underlined word “waned” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A.Turned weaker. B.Become different.
C.Spread widely. D.Won recognition.

Keep current with facts about electric cars
Sales of electric vehicles (EV) grew 40 percent last year worldwide. Stateside, nearly a third of drivers want their next car to be electric. __1__ Almost 100 pureelectric vehicles are set to come into the market by the end of 2024.Many manufacturers, including GM, Jeep, and Volvo, have promised to offer fully electric lineups before this decade is done.
__2__ Tesla's upcoming reimagined Roadster will start at $200,000, while Tesla's current cheapest model is $41,000. Plenty of other EVs are even more affordable. Chevy, Nissan, and Hyundai all offer models for around $30,000. When assessing the cost of an EV, keep in mind that some models will even qualify you for a federal tax credit (联邦税收抵免) of up to $7,500. __3__ A typical EV owner spends between $6,000 and $10,000 less than a conventional car owner on vehicle maintenance. One reason: EVs don't have transmissions or clutches, two of the costliest parts to repair.
There are about 22,000 public charging ports nationwide, a number that is expected to be more than three times by 2023.But for most EV owners, charging at home is the way to go. __4__
The average EV gets about 250 miles from a full charge, which is far less than the distance most gaspowered cars can go on a full tank. But EVs are catching up. Tesla comes the closest. Its newer 2021 version gets closer to 500. __5__ BMW makes a fastcharging system that adds about 60 miles of drive time in about six minutes.
A.They'll have options.
B.But electric cars are nothing new.
C.Then there are the longterm savings.
D.Charging technology is also improving.
