Unit 4 Never too old to learn 高考专题大建构 ●答案见D38 1.阅读理解 主题语境人与社会一一Eric Weiner的哲学书语篇类型议论文词数317关键词book,philosophy [2023 I was about 13 when an uncle gave me a copy of Jostein Gaarder's Sophie's World.It was full of ideas that were new to me,so I spent the summer with my head in and out of that book.It spoke to me and brought me into a world of philosophy(哲学). That love for philosophy lasted until I got to college.Nothing kills the love for philosophy faster than people who think they understand Foucault,Baudrillard,or Confucius better than you-and then try to explain them. Eric Weiner's The Socrates Express:In Search of Life Lessons from Dead Philosophers reawakened my love for philosophy.It is not an explanation,but an invitation to think and experience philosophy. Weiner starts each chapter with a scene on a train ride between cities and then frames each philosopher's work in the context()of one thing they can help us do better.The end result is a read in which we learn to wonder like Socrates,see like Thoreau,listen like Schopenhauer,and have no regrets like Nietzsche.This,more than a book about understanding philosophy,is a book about learning to use philosophy to improve a life. He makes philosophical thought an appealing exercise that improves the quality of our experiences,and he does so with plenty of humor.Weiner enters into conversation with some of the most important philosophers in history,and he becomes part of that crowd in the process by decoding(their messages and adding his own interpretation. The Socrates Express is a fun,sharp book that draws readers in with its apparent simplicity and gradually pulls them in deeper thoughts on desire,loneliness,and aging.The invitation is clear:Weiner wants you to pick up a coffee or tea and sit down with this book.I encourage you to take his offer.It's worth your time,even if time is something we don't have a lot of. 1.Who opened the door to philosophy for the author?

B 主题语境 人与社会二《（阅读艺术： 爱书人的艺术》书评 语篇类型议论文词数319关键词 book.interactive [2023新课标Ⅱ卷]Reading Art::Art for Book Lovers is a celebration of an everyday object-一the book, represented here in almost three hundred artworks from museums around the world.The image of the reader appears throughout history,in art made long before books as we now know them came into being.In artists'representations of books and reading,we see moments of shared humanity that go beyond culture and time. In this "book of books,artworks are selected and arranged in a way that emphasizes these connections between different eras and cultures.We see scenes of children learning to read at home or at school,with the book as a focus for relations between the generations.Adults are portrayed alone in many settings and poses- absorbed in a volume,deep in thought or lost in a moment of leisure.These scenes may have been painted hundreds of years ago,but they record moments we can all relate to. Books themselves may be used symbolically in paintings to demonstrate the intellect ()wealth or faith of the subject.Before the wide use of the printing press,books were treasured objects and could be works of art in their own right.More recently,as books have become inexpensive or even throwaway,artists have used them as the raw material for artworks-transforming covers,pages or even complete volumes into paintings and sculptures. Continued developments in communication technologies were once believed to make the printed page outdated. From a 21st-century point of view,the printed book is certainly ancient,but it remains as interactive as any battery-powered e-reader.To serve its function,a book must be activated by a user:the cover opened,the pages parted,the contents reviewed,perhaps notes written down or words underlined.And in contrast to our increasingly networked lives where the information we consume is monitored and tracked,a printed book still offers the chance of a wholly private,"off-line"activity. 5.Where is the text most probably taken from? A.An introduction to a book. B.An essay on the art of writing. C.A guidebook to a museum. D.A review of modern paintings. 1 861 Unit 4 Never too old to learn 6.What are the selected artworks about? A.Wealth and intellect. B.Home and school. C.Books and reading. D.Work and leisure. 7.What do the underlined words "relate to"in paragraph 2 mean? A.Understand. B.Paint. C.Seize. D.Transform. 8.What does the author want to say by mentioning the e-reader? A.The printed book is not totally out of date. B.Technology has changed the way we read. C.Our lives in the 21st century are networked. D.People now rarely have the patience to read. .七选五 主题语境 人与自我如何 写出一篇好文章 语篇类型 说明文 词数 234关键词 essay,process,techniques [2022新高考Ⅱ卷]Writing an essay is a difficult process for most people.However,the process can be made easier if you learn to practice three simple techniques. 1 When you are first trying to think of ideas for an essay,put your pen to your paper and write nonstop for ten or fifteen minutes without letting your pen leave the paper.Stay loose and free.2. Don't worry about grammar or spelling.Even though this technique won't work for everyone,it helps many people get a good store of ideas to draw on. The next technique is to write your draft rapidly without worrying about being perfect.3. Yet,by learning to live with imperfection,you will save yourself headaches and a wastepaper basket full of crumpled( paper.Think of your first draft as a path cut out of the jungle-as part of an exploration,not as a complete highway. The third technique is to try printing out a triple-spaced (copy to allow space for revision. 4 As a result,these writers never get in the habit of crossing out chunks of their draft and writing revisions in the blank space.After you have revised your draft until it is too messy to work from anymore, you can enter your changes into your word processor.5. The resulting blank space invites you to revise. A.Make sure your handwriting is neat. B.Let your pen follow the waves of thought. C.The second draft of the essay should be better.
