四、(河北省邯郸市三龙育华中学2024-2025学年高二上学期第一次月考)阅读理解
A Chinese female pilot has set a record in the country’s airline industry after flying a small plane for 40 minutes in Beijing. Miao Xiaohong, one of China’s second batch (一批) of female pilots, controlled the Tecnam P2010 plane to take off, turn, climb, dive and land safely at the Shifosi Airport in Pinggu District of Beijing.
In 1956, Miao Xiaohong, who graduated from a high school in Jinan, won a position in the second batch. She graduated from the flight school in 1958. In the following years, she flew many important missions. In 1963, she accepted a mission to airdrop materials for the flood-stricken areas in Hebei Province. Poor visibility (能见度) prevented her locating the target areas as the clouds were about 100 meters above the ground, but she managed to finish the task.
In 1989, she retired and started her writing career. When she collected materials for her books, she found that many aged pilots in other countries still flew, so she had the idea of returning to the sky. To prepare for the flight, she walked 3,000 steps every day and moved her arms to meet the requirements for high-altitude flight during the past two months. Different from past flights for missions, this time her goal was to enjoy the flight. She said that it was exciting and fresh. “Seeing the boundless blue sky unfold in front of me, I feel it is very open,” she said.
The trainer said that Miao Xiaohong could finish 30 hours of flight to get a license for the commercial flight. She said, “My physical condition is good enough to finish the 30-hour flight but it is not so important for me to get such a license. After achieving my dream of returning to the sky, I hope to encourage young women to join the airline industry. I’m 82 years old and I can fly again. You, the young people, can fly and will fly better than me.”
4. What can we learn about Miao Xiaohong from her airdrop mission?
A. She was a very lucky pilot. B. She had excellent flight skills.
C. She suffered from poor eyesight. D. She seldom finished hard tasks.
5. What made Miao Xiaohong have the idea of flying a plane at the age of 82?
A. Her deep love for the sky.
B. Her wish to set a flying record.
C. The influence of foreign aged pilots.
D. The requirements of her books.
6. Which of the following can best describe Miao Xiaohong?
A. Strict. B. Stubborn. C. Generous. D. Determined.
7. What could be the best title for the passage?
A. Returning to the Blue Sky B. Improving Your Flight Skills
C. Managing to Finish Difficult Tasks D. Improving Yourself to Set a Record
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. A
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了中国女飞行员苗晓红在航空事业上的卓越贡献与晚年重拾飞行梦想的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“In 1963, she accepted a mission to airdrop materials for the flood-stricken areas in Hebei Province. Poor visibility (能见度) prevented her locating the target areas as the clouds were about 100 meters above the ground, but she managed to finish the task. (1963年,她接受了为河北省洪灾地区空投物资的任务。由于云层离地面约100米,能见度低使她无法定位目标区域,但她设法完成了任务。)”可知,在1963年的空投任务中,尽管能见度极低,但苗晓红仍然成功完成了任务,这表明她具有出色的飞行技能。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的“When she collected materials for her books, she found that many aged pilots in other countries still flew, so she had the idea of returning to the sky. (当她为她的书收集材料时,她发现其他国家的许多老年飞行员仍然在飞行,所以她有了重返天空的想法。)”可知,苗晓红在收集书籍资料时了解到其他国家的老年飞行员仍在飞行,这激发了她重返蓝天的想法。故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“To prepare for the flight, she walked 3,000 steps every day and moved her arms to meet the requirements for high-altitude flight during the past two months. (为了准备飞行,在过去的两个月里,她每天步行3000步,并移动手臂以满足高空飞行的要求。)”可知,苗晓红在高龄时决定重返蓝天,这需要极大的决心和毅力。她不仅坚持锻炼以达到高空飞行的要求,还表示飞行是为了享受,而非仅仅完成任务。她也表达了鼓励年轻女性加入航空业的愿望,显示了她的坚定意志和对理想的追求。由此可推知,苗晓红是一个意志力坚强的人。故选D。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段的“A Chinese female pilot has set a record in the country’s airline industry after flying a small plane for 40 minutes in Beijing. Miao Xiaohong, one of China's second batch (一批) of female pilots, controlled the Tecnam P2010 plane to take off, turn, climb, dive and land safely at the Shifosi Airport in Pinggu District of Beijing. (一名中国女飞行员在北京驾驶一架小型飞机飞行40分钟,创造了中国航空业的纪录。中国第二批女飞行员苗晓红在北京平谷区石佛寺机场驾驶Tecnam P2010飞机安全起飞、转弯、爬升、俯冲和降落。)”以及全文可知,文章讲述了苗晓红作为中国第二批女飞行员之一,在退休多年后,受国外老年飞行员的启发,重新开始飞行,实现了重返蓝天的梦想。她不仅展现了个人的决心和勇气,还希望能够激励更多的年轻人,尤其是女性,投身航空行业。所以“重返蓝天”适合作本文的标题。故选A。

六、(天津市第一百中学等校联考2024-2025学年高三上学期期中)阅读理解
Across the rich world, well-educated people increasingly work longer than the less-skilled. Some 65% of American men aged 62-74 with a professional degree are in the workforce, compared with 32% of men with only a high-school certificate. This gap is part of a deepening divide between the well-educated well-off and the unskilled poor. Rapid technological advance has raised the incomes of the highly skilled while squeezing those of the unskilled. The consequences, for individuals and society, are profound.
The world is facing an astonishing rise in the number of old people, and they will live longer than ever before. Over the next 20 years the global population of those age d 65 or more will almost double, from 600 million to 1.1 billion. The experience of the 20th century, when greater longevity(长寿) translated into more years in retirement rather than more years at work, has persuaded many observers that this shift will lead to slower economic growth, while the swelling ranks of pensioners will create government budget problems.
But the notion of a sharp division between the working young and the idle old misses a new trend, the growing gap between the skilled and the unskilled. Employment rates are falling among younger unskilled people, whereas older skilled folk are working longer. The divide is most extreme in America, where well-educated baby-boomers(二战后生育高峰期出生的美国人) are putting off retirement while many less-skilled younger people have dropped out of the workforce.
Policy is partly responsible. Many European governments have abandoned policies that used to encourage people to retire early. Rising life expectancy(预期寿命), combined with the replacement of generous defined-benefit pension plans with less generous defined-contribution ones, means that even the better-off must work longer to have a comfortable retirement. But the changing nature of work also plays a big role. Pay has risen sharply for the highly educated, and those people continue to reap rich rewards into old age because these days the educated elderly are more productive than the preceding generation. Technological change may well reinforce that shift: the skills that complement computers, from management knowhow to creativity, do not necessarily decline with age.
7. What is happening in the workforce in rich countries?
A. Younger people are replacing the elderly.
B. Well-educated people tend to work longer.
C. Unemployment rates are rising year after year.
D. People with no college degree do not easily find work.
8. What has helped deepen the divide between the well-off and the poor?
A. Longer life expectancies.
B. A rapid technological advance.
C. Profound changes in the workforce.
D. A growing number of the well-educated.
9. What do many observers predict in view of the experience of the 20th century?
A. Economic growth will slow down.
B. Government budgets will increase.
C. More people will try to pursue higher education.
D. There will be more competition in the job market.
10. What is the result of policy changes in European countries?
A. Unskilled workers may choose to retire early.
B. More people have to receive in-service training.
C Even wealthy people must work longer to live comfortably in retirement.
D. People may be able to enjoy generous defined-benefits from pension plans.
11. What is characteristic of work in the 21st century?
A. Computers will do more complicated work.
B. More will be taken by the educated young.
C. Most jobs to be done will be creative ones.
D. Skills are highly valued regardless of age.
【答案】7. B 8. B 9. A 10. C 11. D
【导语】这是一篇说明文,阐述了在发达国家中劳动力市场出现的一些现象及背后的原因,包括高学历人群工作时间延长、贫富差距因技术发展等因素加深、政策变化带来的影响以及 21 世纪工作的特点等内容。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Across the rich world, well-educated people increasingly work longer than the less-skilled.(在发达国家,受过良好教育的人工作时间比技能较差的人越来越长)”可知,在发达国家的劳动力市场中,受过良好教育的人往往工作时间更长。故选B项。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Rapid technological advance has raised the incomes of the highly skilled while squeezing those of the unskilled. The consequences, for individuals and society, are profound(快速的技术进步提高了高技能人群的收入,同时挤压了低技能人群的收入。这对个人和社会的影响是深远的)”可知,快速的技术进步加深了富裕人群和贫困人群之间的差距。故选B项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The experience of the 20th century, when greater longevity (长寿) translated into more years in retirement rather than more years at work, has persuaded many observers that this shift will lead to slower economic growth, while the swelling ranks of pensioners will create government budget problems.(20 世纪的经验是,更长的寿命转化为更多的退休年限而非工作年限,这使许多观察家相信,这种转变将导致经济增长放缓,同时不断膨胀的养老金领取者队伍将给政府预算带来问题)”可知,鉴于20世纪的经验,许多观察家预测经济增长将会放缓。故选A项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Rising life expectancy (预期寿命), combined with the replacement of generous defined-benefit pension plans with less generous defined-contribution ones, means that even the better-off must work longer to have a comfortable retirement(预期寿命的提高,加上慷慨的固定福利养老金计划被不那么慷慨的固定缴款养老金计划所取代,意味着即使是富裕的人也必须工作更长时间才能过上舒适的退休生活)” 可知,欧洲国家政策变化的结果是,即使是富裕的人也必须工作更长时间才能在退休后过上舒适的生活。故选C项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Technological change may well reinforce that shift: the skills that complement computers, from management know how to creativity, do not necessarily decline with age(技术变革很可能会强化这种转变:从管理技能到创造力等与计算机相辅相成的技能,不一定会随着年龄的增长而下降)”可知,从管理技能到创造力等与计算机相辅相成的技能,不一定会随着年龄的增长而下降,可推理出21 世纪工作的特点是技能无论年龄大小都受到高度重视。故选D项。

A Chinese female pilot has set a record in the country’s airline industry after flying a small plane for 40 minutes in Beijing. Miao Xiaohong, one of China’s second batch (一批) of female pilots, controlled the Tecnam P2010 plane to take off, turn, climb, dive and land safely at the Shifosi Airport in Pinggu District of Beijing.
In 1956, Miao Xiaohong, who graduated from a high school in Jinan, won a position in the second batch. She graduated from the flight school in 1958. In the following years, she flew many important missions. In 1963, she accepted a mission to airdrop materials for the flood-stricken areas in Hebei Province. Poor visibility (能见度) prevented her locating the target areas as the clouds were about 100 meters above the ground, but she managed to finish the task.
In 1989, she retired and started her writing career. When she collected materials for her books, she found that many aged pilots in other countries still flew, so she had the idea of returning to the sky. To prepare for the flight, she walked 3,000 steps every day and moved her arms to meet the requirements for high-altitude flight during the past two months. Different from past flights for missions, this time her goal was to enjoy the flight. She said that it was exciting and fresh. “Seeing the boundless blue sky unfold in front of me, I feel it is very open,” she said.
The trainer said that Miao Xiaohong could finish 30 hours of flight to get a license for the commercial flight. She said, “My physical condition is good enough to finish the 30-hour flight but it is not so important for me to get such a license. After achieving my dream of returning to the sky, I hope to encourage young women to join the airline industry. I’m 82 years old and I can fly again. You, the young people, can fly and will fly better than me.”
4. What can we learn about Miao Xiaohong from her airdrop mission?
A. She was a very lucky pilot. B. She had excellent flight skills.
C. She suffered from poor eyesight. D. She seldom finished hard tasks.
5. What made Miao Xiaohong have the idea of flying a plane at the age of 82?
A. Her deep love for the sky.
B. Her wish to set a flying record.
C. The influence of foreign aged pilots.
D. The requirements of her books.
6. Which of the following can best describe Miao Xiaohong?
A. Strict. B. Stubborn. C. Generous. D. Determined.
7. What could be the best title for the passage?
A. Returning to the Blue Sky B. Improving Your Flight Skills
C. Managing to Finish Difficult Tasks D. Improving Yourself to Set a Record

六、(天津市第一百中学等校联考2024-2025学年高三上学期期中)阅读理解
Across the rich world, well-educated people increasingly work longer than the less-skilled. Some 65% of American men aged 62-74 with a professional degree are in the workforce, compared with 32% of men with only a high-school certificate. This gap is part of a deepening divide between the well-educated well-off and the unskilled poor. Rapid technological advance has raised the incomes of the highly skilled while squeezing those of the unskilled. The consequences, for individuals and society, are profound.
The world is facing an astonishing rise in the number of old people, and they will live longer than ever before. Over the next 20 years the global population of those age d 65 or more will almost double, from 600 million to 1.1 billion. The experience of the 20th century, when greater longevity(长寿) translated into more years in retirement rather than more years at work, has persuaded many observers that this shift will lead to slower economic growth, while the swelling ranks of pensioners will create government budget problems.
But the notion of a sharp division between the working young and the idle old misses a new trend, the growing gap between the skilled and the unskilled. Employment rates are falling among younger unskilled people, whereas older skilled folk are working longer. The divide is most extreme in America, where well-educated baby-boomers(二战后生育高峰期出生的美国人) are putting off retirement while many less-skilled younger people have dropped out of the workforce.
Policy is partly responsible. Many European governments have abandoned policies that used to encourage people to retire early. Rising life expectancy(预期寿命), combined with the replacement of generous defined-benefit pension plans with less generous defined-contribution ones, means that even the better-off must work longer to have a comfortable retirement. But the changing nature of work also plays a big role. Pay has risen sharply for the highly educated, and those people continue to reap rich rewards into old age because these days the educated elderly are more productive than the preceding generation. Technological change may well reinforce that shift: the skills that complement computers, from management knowhow to creativity, do not necessarily decline with age.
7. What is happening in the workforce in rich countries?
A. Younger people are replacing the elderly.
B. Well-educated people tend to work longer.
C. Unemployment rates are rising year after year.
D. People with no college degree do not easily find work.
8. What has helped deepen the divide between the well-off and the poor?
A. Longer life expectancies.
B. A rapid technological advance.
C. Profound changes in the workforce.
D. A growing number of the well-educated.
9. What do many observers predict in view of the experience of the 20th century?
A. Economic growth will slow down.
B. Government budgets will increase.
C. More people will try to pursue higher education.
D. There will be more competition in the job market.
10. What is the result of policy changes in European countries?
A. Unskilled workers may choose to retire early.
B. More people have to receive in-service training.
C Even wealthy people must work longer to live comfortably in retirement.
D. People may be able to enjoy generous defined-benefits from pension plans.
11. What is characteristic of work in the 21st century?
A. Computers will do more complicated work.
B. More will be taken by the educated young.
C. Most jobs to be done will be creative ones.
D. Skills are highly valued regardless of age.

I was born in Chongqing, a foggy city as if it were in the clouds. And my Chinese given name is cloud in Chinese, so Cloud has become my English name. You can call me Ms. Cloud. And what else do you want to know about Ms. Cloud? Ok, let me show you two things related to me. First, new energy-efficient vehicle. Second, gasoline car that gives off emission. So read after me. (Teach Ss the pronunciation.) Next, I want you to make a sentence to guess more about me. Your sentence should include at least one or two of the 3 words by starting with Ms. Cloud________________. I will respond to you with a “no” or a “yes” based on the truth about me. But you needn’t worry. If no, you will be given one candy as an encouragement of your speech. If yes, you will be given two as a prize. So 30 seconds for you to think. You can have a discussion if you like. So any guess?
