专题05 阅读理解应用文 主题01 人与社会—— Passage 1 （24-25学年高一下·上海市浦东新区东昌中学·期末） Van Gogh experienced a mental disorder Experts analyzed van Gogh’s medical records and hundreds of his letters, and interviewed three historians specializing in the artist. They believe that the findings point to the artist having experienced two periods of mental disorder in the final years of his life. These may have been caused in part by enforced withdrawal from alcohol, upon which van Gogh was increasingly dependent. HS2 dig shows magical marks Medieval graffiti (中世纪涂鸦) found in the remains of a church in Buckinghamshire may have been created to ward off bad spirits which is considered negative at that time, experts suggest. The marks, found carved into stones in the ruined church, likely date from the 12th century. It’s among the discoveries made as work continues on Britain’s new high-speed HS2 rail line, which is set to begin operation from 2029. End of the Stone Age saw monumental building rise The final years of the Neolithic period (新石器时代) were marked by intense building activity and the construction of several large monuments in Britain, a new study suggests. Analysis of a henge (巨石阵) at Mount Pleasant in Dorset shows that it took between 35 and 125years to build, rather than centuries, as previously thought. Experts assume that the effort may have been inspired by a sense that times were changing. First settlers in North America used dog hair for clothing Finding a landscape short of animals to domesticate, the first humans to arrive in North America bred the dogs that traveled with them from Eurasia for hunting, for labor and, most often, for fur. That’s a theory suggested by a study of 170,000 dogs’ bones found in the northwest of North America. Their hair may have been made into yarn (纱线) for use in clothing, experts suggest. 1．What does the phrase ward off mean in the second paragraph? A．prevent B．cause C．invade D．reverse 2．Which of the following statement is true? A．Van Gogh’s mental disorder was completely caused by alcohol. B．HS2 dig is meant to discover Medieval ruins. C．The Neolithic period lasted about 35 to 125 years. D．First settlers in North America raised dogs mainly for fur. 3．Who are probably the target readers of the text? A．Animal protectors.

Passage 2 （24-25高一下·上海市静安区风华中学·期末） Is an electric vehicle right for you? Many people will ask themselves that question for the first time this year. Prices are falling, battery range is rising and mainstream brands are adding new EVs at a breakneck pace. Here are three things anybody seriously considering buying an EV should know: 1. The price to install a 240v charger Anybody who owns an electric vehicle needs a 240-volt charger at home. With one, you can recharge overnight, so you start every day with the equivalent of a full tank. Just a few years ago, home 240v EV chargers cost $2,500-$3,000, including installation, but prices have declined as competition grows with the number of EVs on the road. 2. The time it takes to charge About 80% of miles driven in EVs are powered by electricity charged at home, but you’ll need to charge elsewhere occasionally. That’s when charging time becomes a big deal, but how long it takes depends on a couple of factors. First, voltage from the charger. Getting 250 miles of range in seven hours from a 240v charger is fine when you’re charging overnight at home, but it’s a deal breaker if you’re going 300 miles for a weekend getaway. In that case, you’ll want to look for a 400v DC fast charger. They’re not as common as 240v public chargers yet, but they’re becoming more widespread. There’s another factor: the on-board charger. It regulates how fast the battery can accept electricity. A vehicle with a higher-capacity on-board charger accepts electricity faster. 3. Where to charge Good route-planning apps will help you find chargers on a road trip. “Most people have no idea how many public charging stations are within, say, a 10-or 15-mile radius(半径) because they’re small, people don’t look for them or even don’t know what to look for, and they’re rarely signposted,” said journalist John Voelcker, who has studied EVs and charging exhaustively. 4. On the horizon If an EV doesn’t meet your needs now, watch this space. They’re coming closer, but large numbers of gasoline vehicles will remain in production for years. Beyond that, companies will keep making spare parts for oil-burners for decades. 24．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A．The price of installing a home EV charger has remained stable in the past few years. B．It’s quite easy to identify the public charging stations with the help of striking signposts. C．Popular brands are introducing new EVs at an incredibly fast rate. D．An electric vehicle can’t provide the same amount of energy as a completely filled fuel tank. 25．The underlined phrase “watch this space” in the last paragraph probably means “________”. A．give up the plan to purchase an EV B．make space for an EV C．find an alternative to EV D．keep an eye out for future developments 26．This passage is mainly intended to ________. A．illustrate the factors charging time depends on B．offer advice on purchasing an electric vehicle C．look forward to the future of electric vehicles D．explain the reason for the falling prices of electric vehicles 主题01 人与社会—— Passage 1 （24-25学年高一下·上海市复旦大学附属中学·期末） The Met High School Internship Program The Met High School Internship Program offers paid opportunities for students who are two to three years from graduating high school in New York City.

Consumers need to consider and compare each service’s features, storage possibilities, free space and best price. You may be unsure, or you do not know where to begin. Trying every Cloud service would take a lot of time and work. But, the website Reviews. com might help. Cloud Drop-box Google-Drive One-Drive Box Best for Lightweight Users Teams And Collaboration Devoted Windows Users Enterprise Solutions Free Storage Space 2GB 15GB 15GB 10GB Cheapest Premium Option ＄9.99 for 1TB ＄1.99 for 100GB ＄1.99 for 100GB ＄10 for 100GB One valuable feature is the protection of digital files, including photos, videos, documents, music and more. If the worst happens and your computer crashes, or gets lost or damaged, your files can still be found in the Cloud. Cloud services let you access your files from almost anywhere. No need to worry about a file stored on your computer when you are away from your desk. If you have an Internet connection, you can open your files from any computer, or from a phone, when they are stored using a Cloud service. Using a Cloud service makes sharing files easier. If you send documents to a group using emails, you may then wonder which version everyone is working with. When sharing files using a Cloud service, everyone will see the same document and the latest version. The first thing to consider is the amount of storage space you need. Check how much space you are currently using on your computer and mobile devices. If your computer or phone is filled with photos and you have little free space, you may want to move your photos to the Cloud. Some Cloud services are free. But, if you need a lot of space, you will probably need one that costs money. Even if everyone you have ever met is a Windows user, you still probably want a Cloud service that works with many platforms. You might become friends with an Android user or start a job with a company that computes on Apple! 27．Which of the following is true according to the passage? A．Google-Drive users can obtain 100GB for free. B．Most Cloud services can send files to both the Cloud and the local computer.

It is marked in over 100 countries around the globe. In an effort to move celebrations of reading into the evening and focus more on adults instead of children, World Book Night starts in the UK in 2011. Why should we read? At The Reading Agency, we believe reading for fun helps people live better lives. Studies show it: Reduces Loneliness: Many readers (about 19%) say reading helps them feel less alone. Builds Community: Good readers tend to feel more connected to society and trust others more. Increases Understanding: Reading for pleasure helps you: Understand others’ feelings better (empathy). Understand yourself better. See the world through others’ eyes. Lowers Stress & Relaxes: People who read for fun regularly feel less stressed and sad than non-readers. Reading is also more relaxing than watching TV or using phones/ computers. Join World Book Night (April 23)! Whether you read alone or with friends, participating helps share the power of reading to cope with life’s challenges. 12．What is the purpose of the “World Book Night”? A．To deal with challenges in life. B．To introduce the power of reading. C．To encourage more adults to become readers. D．To promote people’s physical and mental health. 13．Where can you find the passage above? A．In a newspaper. B．In a magazine. C．In a website. D．On TV. 14．If you want to participate in the reading activity with your friends on April 23, you can most probably refer to ________ section first.

Many people will ask themselves that question for the first time this year. Prices are falling, battery range is rising and mainstream brands are adding new EVs at a breakneck pace. Here are three things anybody seriously considering buying an EV should know: 1. The price to install a 240v charger Anybody who owns an electric vehicle needs a 240-volt charger at home. With one, you can recharge overnight, so you start every day with the equivalent of a full tank. Just a few years ago, home 240v EV chargers cost $2,500-$3,000, including installation, but prices have declined as competition grows with the number of EVs on the road. 2. The time it takes to charge About 80% of miles driven in EVs are powered by electricity charged at home, but you’ll need to charge elsewhere occasionally. That’s when charging time becomes a big deal, but how long it takes depends on a couple of factors. First, voltage from the charger. Getting 250 miles of range in seven hours from a 240v charger is fine when you’re charging overnight at home, but it’s a deal breaker if you’re going 300 miles for a weekend getaway. In that case, you’ll want to look for a 400v DC fast charger. They’re not as common as 240v public chargers yet, but they’re becoming more widespread. There’s another factor: the on-board charger. It regulates how fast the battery can accept electricity. A vehicle with a higher-capacity on-board charger accepts electricity faster. 3. Where to charge Good route-planning apps will help you find chargers on a road trip. “Most people have no idea how many public charging stations are within, say, a 10-or 15-mile radius(半径) because they’re small, people don’t look for them or even don’t know what to look for, and they’re rarely signposted,” said journalist John Voelcker, who has studied EVs and charging exhaustively. 4. On the horizon If an EV doesn’t meet your needs now, watch this space. They’re coming closer, but large numbers of gasoline vehicles will remain in production for years. Beyond that, companies will keep making spare parts for oil-burners for decades. 24．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A．The price of installing a home EV charger has remained stable in the past few years. B．It’s quite easy to identify the public charging stations with the help of striking signposts. C．Popular brands are introducing new EVs at an incredibly fast rate. D．An electric vehicle can’t provide the same amount of energy as a completely filled fuel tank. 25．The underlined phrase “watch this space” in the last paragraph probably means “________”. A．give up the plan to purchase an EV B．make space for an EV C．find an alternative to EV D．keep an eye out for future developments 26．This passage is mainly intended to ________. A．illustrate the factors charging time depends on B．offer advice on purchasing an electric vehicle C．look forward to the future of electric vehicles D．explain the reason for the falling prices of electric vehicles 【答案】24．C 25．D 26．B 【导语】本文旨在为读者提供购买电动汽车前需要了解的三个重要知识点。 24．细节理解题。根据第一段“Many people will ask themselves that question for the first time this year. Prices are falling, battery range is rising and mainstream brands are adding new EVs at a breakneck pace.(今年，很多人会第一次问自己这个问题。价格在下降，电池续航里程在增加，主流品牌正在以惊人的速度增加新的电动汽车)”可知，热门品牌正以令人难以置信的速度推出新的电动汽车。故选C项。 25．词句猜测题。根据前文“If an EV doesn’t meet your needs now(如果电动汽车现在还不能满足你的需求)”以及后文“They’re coming closer, but large numbers of gasoline vehicles will remain in production for years.(他们离目标越来越近了，但大量的汽油车仍将持续生产多年)”可知，电车离目标越来越近了，所以如果电动汽车现在还不能满足你的需求，就持续关注它的未来，直到达到目标，推知watch this space意为“关注未来的发展”之意，和D项意思相近。故选D项。 26．主旨大意题。根据第二段“Here are three things anybody seriously considering buying an EV should know:(任何认真考虑购买电动汽车的人都应该知道以下三点)”以及纵观全文可知，本文主要讲述了购买电动汽车前需要了解的三个重要知识点，也就是提供购买电动汽车的建议。故选B项。 主题01 人与社会—— Passage 1 （24-25学年高一下·上海市复旦大学附属中学·期末） The Met High School Internship Program The Met High School Internship Program offers paid opportunities for students who are two to three years from graduating high school in New York City.

Consumers need to consider and compare each service’s features, storage possibilities, free space and best price. You may be unsure, or you do not know where to begin. Trying every Cloud service would take a lot of time and work. But, the website Reviews. com might help. Cloud Drop-box Google-Drive One-Drive Box Best for Lightweight Users Teams And Collaboration Devoted Windows Users Enterprise Solutions Free Storage Space 2GB 15GB 15GB 10GB Cheapest Premium Option ＄9.99 for 1TB ＄1.99 for 100GB ＄1.99 for 100GB ＄10 for 100GB One valuable feature is the protection of digital files, including photos, videos, documents, music and more. If the worst happens and your computer crashes, or gets lost or damaged, your files can still be found in the Cloud. Cloud services let you access your files from almost anywhere. No need to worry about a file stored on your computer when you are away from your desk. If you have an Internet connection, you can open your files from any computer, or from a phone, when they are stored using a Cloud service. Using a Cloud service makes sharing files easier. If you send documents to a group using emails, you may then wonder which version everyone is working with. When sharing files using a Cloud service, everyone will see the same document and the latest version. The first thing to consider is the amount of storage space you need. Check how much space you are currently using on your computer and mobile devices. If your computer or phone is filled with photos and you have little free space, you may want to move your photos to the Cloud. Some Cloud services are free. But, if you need a lot of space, you will probably need one that costs money. Even if everyone you have ever met is a Windows user, you still probably want a Cloud service that works with many platforms. You might become friends with an Android user or start a job with a company that computes on Apple! 27．Which of the following is true according to the passage? A．Google-Drive users can obtain 100GB for free. B．Most Cloud services can send files to both the Cloud and the local computer. C．It’s hard to transfer your file when you turn on the computer if it is stored in the Cloud. D．Never worry about finding your files in the Clouds if the computer system crashes. 28．What will you have to do if you need more space to store more files in the Cloud? A．To use your own Cloud services. B．To share Cloud space with others. C．To spend money buying space. D．To buy the latest version of the service. 29．How can consumers find the Cloud service that suits them best? A．By learning more information about the space occupied by files. B．By comparing Cloud's function, storage, available space and prices. C．By sending files to a group of people via e-mail inquiring about the Cloud service. D．By making friends with Android users who use Apple computers. 【答案】27．D 28．C 29．B 【分析】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了一些云服务。 27．细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“If the worst happens and your computer crashes, or gets lost or damaged, your files can still be found in the Cloud.”（如果最坏的情况发生，你的电脑崩溃了，或者丢失或损坏了，你的文件仍然可以在云中找到。）可知，如果计算机崩溃，不要担心在云中找不到你的文件，D选项描述正确。故选D项。 28．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段最后两句“Some Cloud services are free. But, if you need a lot of space, you will probably need one that costs money.”（ 一些云服务是免费的。但是，如果你需要很大的空间，你可能需要一个花钱的空间。）可知，如果你需要更多的储存空间，就需要花钱购买。故选C项。 29．推理判断题。根据第一段第二句“Consumers need to consider and compare each service’s features, storage possibilities, free space and best price.”（消费者需要考虑和比较每个服务的特点，存储的可能性，自由空间和最佳价格。你可能不确定，或者你不知道从哪里开始。）结合文章中的表格内容可知，消费者通过比较云的功能、存储空间、可用空间和价格就能找到最适合自己的云服务。故选B项。 Passage 2 （24-25高一下·上海师范大学附属中学闵行分校·期末） DONALD SLOAN Gates Hall University of Kansas Lawrence, KS 66045 913-243-1682 After May 2009: 46 Clayton Drive St．Louis, MO 63130 314-726-8840 Objective To work with the client (委托人) population in a social service position.
