Ⅰ.阅读理解(每小题2.5分,共10分)
(2025·济宁高一检测)The classic 1951 science fiction film The Day the Earth Stood Still includes an impressive character—a frightening robot (Gort) whose terrible actions are under control only when he is ordered, “Klaatu Barada Nikto”.What does this mean? I don't know.But when I overhear my students speaking to each other, I am often similarly confused.
I teach at a university.One of the “problems” is that as the years pass, I get older, but my students remain the same age—18 to 22.Early on, when I was in my 20s and 30s, this wasn't an issue, as we were close enough in age to speak the same language.But lately I have become well aware that a language ship seems to have sailed, and I am not on board.
Let me make it clear by using an example: Recently, when I walked into my class, my students were chatting happily with each other.One of their comments caught my ear: “Venmo it to me.” I had no idea what “Venmo” meant, so I asked.The goodnatured students were happy to explain it to me, and in return I nodded with an awkward expression, as if I should have known better.
I went home that evening, losing myself in that moment of noncomprehension (不理解).I am not against change, but I am uncomfortable with change when its pace has me hanging on by my fingernails.If I were to awaken from a fiveyear sleep, I'd have no idea what people were talking about.I just wouldn't understand the language.
Their willingness to explain their words to me is a great comfort, and I congratulate myself on at least having interest in what they're talking about, as well as on my ability—for the most part—to understand their explanations.
But what will happen if my interest wanes and that the language ship finally disappears over the horizon? The answer, to me, is clear: Klaatu Barada Nikto.
[语篇解读]这是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了他随着年龄增长不能适应英语语言的进化。
1.Why does the author mention the classic 1951 film?
A.To recommend an excellent film.
B.To introduce a similar experience.
C.To suggest a language learning method.
D.To discuss how to control a robot.
解析:选B。推理判断题。文章第一段谈及1951年的经典电影中的机器人命令语言,是为了介绍作者自己有类似的经历,即自己经常听不懂学生说的话。故选B。
2.What makes the author fall behind in language?
A.Learning needs. B.Teaching tasks.
C.Age difference. D.Hearing loss.
解析:选C。细节理解题。根据文章第二段“One of the ‘problems’ is that as the years pass, I get older, but my students remain the same age—18 to 22.”可知,作者跟不上语言变化的原因是和学生的年龄差越来越大。故选C。
3.What does the author think of language change?
A.It is entirely avoidable.
B.It is really small.
C.It is very beneficial.
D.It is much too rapid.
解析:选D。推理判断题。根据文章第四段 “I am not against change, but I am uncomfortable with change when its pace has me hanging on by my fingernails.”可知,作者认为语言变化太快了。故选D。
4.What does the underlined word “wanes” mean in the last paragraph?
A.Lessens. B.Grows.
C.Happens. D.Focuses.
解析:选A。词句猜测题。根据第五段“...and I congratulate myself on at least having interest in what they're talking about, as well as on my ability—for the most part—to understand their explanations.”及画线词所在句中的But可知,这里指自己不再有兴趣,所以猜测该词意思为“减退,减弱”。故选A。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五(每小题2.5分,共12.5分)
New Yorkers Enjoy a Little Help with Grammar
The New York City train system has a new unofficial (非正式的) stop—for people who love grammar...or even just have questions about it.
1( ) There is a foldable table, books, a smile and a deep knowledge of grammar.Jovin calls it Grammar Table.Jovin sits at the table in the subway and on city streets.She smiles and waits for people to come by with grammar questions.
Jovin is a language expert (专家).She has worked to spread her love for the English language for a long time.She has taught grammar and writing at universities.2( ) But she decided to take her knowledge to the streets and subways of New York.Jovin believes understanding language structure rules will help people around the world understand each other better.
More than one billion people in the world speak English.Another two billion are in the process of learning it—or trying to.3( ) Jovin's mission (使命) is to help people who find themselves afraid of or confused by the world of English.
Usually, Jovin catches the interest of a lot of people, and the Grammar Table also appeals to (吸引) all kinds of people for whom English is filled with mysteries.4( ) Musicians, policemen and even English teachers often stop by for a friendly chat.Walter Skrepnick is a teacher of English literature.He recently shared his thoughts about Grammar Table.Things like that—that deal with language, that deal with culture—are refreshing compared with some of the other things that go on.
5( ) Jovin can speak and understand several languages, and she is trying to learn a few others, too.
A.She did a great job in teaching.
B.Online and traditional classes are her life.
C.Grammar is of great importance to English learners.
D.But not all questions are about English—or even in English.
E.New York subway riders have accepted Jovin with warmth and interest.
F.But English grammar rules frighten many—even native English speakers.
G.English language expert Ellen Jovin has put together an unusual “classroom”.
