专题练(十四)　说明文阅读(4)　(分值：50分) (2024·新课标Ⅰ) Not all great writers are great spellers.If you want to be published，it’s vital to submit a perfect，professionally presented manuscript(原稿)． 36 No editor is likely to tolerate a writer who does not take the trouble to spell words correctly. I keep two reference books close-by on my desk：dictionary and thesaurus(同义词词典)．I don’t trust my laptop’s ①spellchecker. 37 Of course，these days there are plenty of online dictionaries and thesauruses，but I’m old-fashioned enough to prefer a hard cover and pages I can ②leaf through with my fingers.I use the Concise Oxford Dictionary and the Collins Thesaurus. 38 It should give you a precise definition of each word，thus ③differentiating it from other words whose meanings are similar，but not identical.It will also usually show how the word is pronounced. In addition，I have an old two-volume copy of the Shorter Oxford Dictionary，picked up a few years ago in a bookshop sale for just 99 pence.Of course，with its 2,672 pages，it’s not exactly short.It contains around 163,000 words，plus word combinations and ④idiomatic phrases. 39 However，if I need to check the origin of a word or to look up examples of its usage，there’s nothing better. For well over a hundred years the most influential English dictionary was Samuel Johnson’s Dictionary of the English Language published in 1755.“To make dictionaries is dull(乏味的) work，” wrote Johnson，illustrating one definition of “dull”． 40 A few minutes spent ⑤casting your eye over a page or two can be a rewarding experience. A．I don’t often use this dictionary. B．It takes no account of the context. C．But I still don’t want to replace them. D．But a dictionary can be a pleasure to read. E．Of course，a dictionary is not only for spelling. F．That means good grammar and no spelling mistakes. G．Dictionaries don’t always give you enough information. 语篇解读　这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了作者使用英语词典的经验和心得以及从中获得的乐趣。 36．答案　F 解析　空格处前一句提到提交完美、专业呈现的原稿对于出版的重要性，后一句讲的是“编辑不太可能容忍不愿花心思把单词拼写正确的作家”。F项是对上文的进一步解释，指出提交完美原稿的要求是良好的语法和没有拼写错误。故选F。 37．答案　B 解析　上文“I don’t trust my laptop’s spellchecker.”提到作者不相信笔记本电脑的拼写检查器。B选项“它不考虑上下文”解释了作者不相信的原因。故选B。 38．答案　E 解析　下文“It should give you a precise definition of each word...It will also usually show how the word is pronounced.”可知，本段主要描述字典的功能，E选项“当然，字典不仅仅是用来拼写的”提到了字典的功能，引起下文内容，与“It should give...”“It will also...”是顺承关系。故选E。 39．答案　A 解析　A选项“我不经常用这本字典”中的指示代词this dictionary指的就是上文中作者提到的the Shorter Oxford Dictionary。同时与下文“However，if I need to check the origin of a word or to look up examples of its usage，there’s nothing better.”构成转折关系，提到了字典的使用情况，虽不常用，但却是查单词的来源或者例句的好帮手，A选项承上启下，故选A。 40．答案　D 解析　上文“To make dictionaries is dull(乏味的) work”提到了编写字典是件乏味的工作，D选项“但是一本字典读起来是一种乐趣”与上文中的“乏味”构成转折关系。下文“A few minutes spent casting your eye over a page or two can be a rewarding experience.”提到浏览字典也是一种非常有意义的经历，是对D选项阐述的内容的补充说明。D选项承上启下，故选D。 语境猜词 ①spellchecker＝(合＋派)spell＋check＋er拼写检查程序 ②leaf through匆匆翻阅；浏览 ③differentiate＝(派)different＋i＋ate区分；区别 ④idiomatic＝(派)idiom＋atic 习语的；地道的 ⑤cast one’s eye over浏览，扫视 以上文章中第38、39和40题考查了“逻辑关系”，解题技法如下： A (2024·湖南教学联盟一模) If you have ever looked closely at the tires on your car，you have probably seen little hairs sticking out of the black rubber. 1 Are they there for any safety reasons? Those little bits are one of the strange car features some people may stop to think about. Located on the vertical part of the tire，these curious little rubber hairs are known as “vent spews(轮胎毛刺)”．They are crucial in the ①tire-making process.As the tread pattern mold(胎面花纹模具) is pressed into the tire’s rubber，the extra rubber requires a way to escape the mold. 2 Curiously，there’s no ②set number of hairs each tire will have. 3 But the presence of tire hairs is universal.They are nothing more than remnants(残余部分) of the complex process that makes strong and durable tires. 4 Because they are found on the part of the tire rubber that doesn’t hit the road，they have no impact on how well your tire grips(抓牢) the pavement in rainy weather.These rubber hairs also don’t have any impact on road noise or why your tires squeak when you’re driving.They are merely evidence of the new tire’s arrival in the world. Tire hairs are naturally worn away during normal driving，and the presence or absence of these hairs doesn’t determine if a tire is safe.There is one instance，however，where the lack of tire hairs can matter. 5 As a responsible car owner，you should monitor the health of your tires regularly. A．Why do tires have hairs? B．Tire hairs don’t have any effect on safe driving. C．Are there any other interesting facts about cars? D．They look funny，yet every new car tire has them. E．It could be a sign that tires are worn，old and need to be replaced. F．The exact number varies based on the design and size of the tires. G．Because ③tiny-size escape vents are created throughout each mold，little tire hairs are born. 1．答案　A 解析　根据后文“Are they there for any safety reasons? Those little bits are one of the strange car features some people may stop to think about.”可知，此处描述一些人的疑问：汽车轮胎上伸出的黑色橡胶毛刺是出于安全考虑吗？A选项(为什么轮胎有毛刺？)与后文构成并列，也是关于轮胎毛刺的问题，符合语境。故选A。 2．答案　G 解析　根据前文“As the tread pattern mold(胎面花纹模具) is pressed into the tire’s rubber，the extra rubber requires a way to escape the mold.”可知，当橡胶被压制时，多余的橡胶需要漏出来，G选项(因为在每个模具中都有微小的排气口，所以小轮胎毛刺就产生了)承接前文，介绍了轮胎毛刺产生的过程，符合语境。故选G。 3．答案　F 解析　根据前文“Curiously，there’s no set number of hairs each tire will have.”可知，每个轮胎的毛刺数量并不固定，F选项(确切的数量根据轮胎的设计和尺寸而有所不同)承接前文，与上文话题一致。故选F。 4．答案　B 解析　本空置于段首，是本段的主旨。根据后文的“Because they are found on the part of the tire rubber that doesn’t hit the road，they have no impact on how well your tire grips(抓牢) the pavement in rainy weather.”可知，毛刺存在于轮胎橡胶中不与路面接触的部分，它们对轮胎的抓地力没有影响。B选项(轮胎毛刺对安全驾驶没有任何影响)概括本段主旨，符合语境。故选B。 5．答案　E 解析　根据前文“There is one instance，however，where the lack of tire hairs can matter.”可知，有一种情况下缺少轮胎上的小毛刺会产生影响。E选项(它可能暗示轮胎磨损、老旧或需要更换)承接并解释前文，符合语境。故选E。 语境猜词 ①tire-making＝(合)tire＋making轮胎制造 ②set(转) v．→adj.固定的；确定的 ③tiny-size＝(合)tiny＋size小尺寸的 B If you want to make a good first impression in an important business meeting，it is no longer about wearing the sharpest suit or the firmest handshake but about making sure that the little Zoom window with your face in it projects ①professionalism.But this is not always easy. 6 Here are some tips. ·Don’t hold your phone. If you absolutely must join the meeting on your phone，then don’t hold it in your hand. 7 Your colleagues will not see your picture swinging about wildly.And the camera will not suddenly look up your nose when you naturally pull your phone closer to your face. · 8 How the light falls on our faces counts.So make sure that you don’t have a big，direct source of light behind you，because all it will do is make your face dark and hard to see—and that is the most important part! ·A professional ②microphone makes up for bad video. The built-in microphones inside our computers can be pretty good，but they are never truly great. 9 What matters is that people should be able to hear what you are saying. ·Don’t rely on the default(默认) camera. 10 This could help create the illusion of eye contact.However，this is not always easy，especially if you are using a laptop and are sitting at a desk，towering above it.It might be worth getting an external camera you can put on top of a monitor. A．Lighting makes the difference. B．Do put on ③make-up on your face. C．Instead，obtain a phone ④stand to hold it. D．The ideal position for your camera is at your ⑤eye-level. E．What can you do to ensure a successful business meeting? F．So it’s worth spending the money on a dedicated external microphone. G．So what can you do to make sure your video calls project the right image? 6．答案　G 解析　上文“If you want to make a good first impression...the little Zoom window with your face in it projects professionalism.But this is not always easy.”指出要想给人留下良好的第一印象就需要在视频通话的窗口中展现专业精神，而这并不容易；选项G(那么你能做些什么来确保你的视频通话展现正确的形象呢？)承接上文并引出下文的建议。故选G。 7．答案　C 解析　根据小标题“Don’t hold your phone.”和下文“If you absolutely must join the meeting on your phone，then don’t hold it in your hand.”可知，用手机参加会议时不要把手机拿在手里；选项C(相反，找一个手机支架来固定它)符合语境，Instead引出相反情况。故选C。 8．答案　A 解析　设空处为小标题。根据本段内容，尤其是首句“How the light falls on our faces counts.”可知，本段主要阐述光线很重要；选项A(灯光有影响)符合本段主旨；选项中的“makes the difference”呼应下文中的“count”。故选A。 9．答案　F 解析　上文“The built-in microphones inside our computers can be pretty good，but they’re never truly great.”指出电脑里的内置麦克风可能不够好；结合小标题可知本段建议买一个专用的外置麦克风，选项F(所以花钱买一个专用的外置麦克风是值得的)与上文构成因果关系，符合语境。故选F。 10．答案　D 解析　由下文“This could help create the illusion of eye contact.”可推知，设空处是关于制造眼神接触的错觉的技巧；D选项(摄像头的理想位置是与你的眼睛齐平)符合语境，下文“This”指代选项D阐述的内容，故选D。 语境猜词 ①professionalism＝(派)professional＋ism专业素质 ②microphone＝(派)micro＋phone 扩音器；麦克风 ③make-up＝(合)make＋up化妆品 ④stand(转) v．→n.支架 ⑤eye-level＝(合)eye＋level视线高度 C (2024·九省联考一模) Common Mistakes New Runners Make Running is a great way to get in shape and just about everyone can do it.However，many make a number of common mistakes，which can interfere(妨碍) with training or lead to injury. 11 ，keep these things in mind to help you increase your chances of running success. ·Doing too much too soon One of the biggest mistakes new runners make is doing too much too soon.Slowly easing into a training program will help reduce the risk of injury，so you can continue on with your new running routine. 12 . · 13 Beginners might think they need to run every day (or nearly every day) to meet their fitness or ①weight-loss goals，but this couldn’t be further from the truth.Running is a ②high-impact activity which can be really hard on your body.So it’s important to give your body a rest between ③workouts. ·Not wearing the right equipment 14 ，it’s important that you wear properly for your workouts.The most important piece of equipment for running is a good pair of running shoes，so be sure to do some research before you purchase a pair.Visit a running ④specialty store and ask an employee to fit you for a shoe. •Running through pain 15 .If something hurts when you run，you need to stop and treat the pain.Remember: It doesn’t make you less of a runner if you listen to your body to keep it healthy.
