A (2025·广东高二上期中) In 2014，my father，Michael，was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease，which shocked the whole family as he was only in his forties. 语篇解读　本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者的父亲Michael在患病后依然坚持热爱艺术的故事。 Ⅲ.主题语篇阅读 A husband and father of three，Dad had a successful career running a painting studio and was always extremely creative.Even in the advanced stages of Parkinson’s，my father decided to keep painting.In art lessons，the class practised painting still life objects，like pears，but my father had other ideas for his inspiration，beginning producing abstract pieces，explaining it helped us to see the world differently.I realized he was right.Observing my father’s works，I could interpret each of them in many ways. Outside of work，he spent 15 years leading a band，Musical Chairs，which performed at the pub in Sydney’s Double Bay each week.When I became a mother，he developed a very close bond with my daughter，Portia.Even after his diagnosis，his passion for music remained unwavering，and his love for Portia continued to grow stronger. Unfortunately，in 2022，he was diagnosed with kidney cancer and given just three months to live.As months turned to years，my father seemed a walking miracle，but his health was suffering.Knowing that he wanted to share his paintings with the world，I decided to organize an exhibition for him.By then he had painted 660 works. I hadn’t done anything like this before.When I was younger，my father always told me “Just say yes and then work out how to do it later”，so I figured this philosophy would guide me through. So in October last year，we welcomed the public to “My Kids Could Do That”，my father’s first public showing，held at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney.Everyone loved his works.I was thrilled to see Dad had found the confidence to call himself an artist at last.His eyes lit up with pride when he saw the walls filled with his works.I’ve got three of his pieces in my home and I can’t be more proud of what he has achieved. 1.What was Michael’s hobby? A.Running. B.Reading. C.Music. D.Photography. 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Outside of work，he spent 15 years leading a band，Musical Chairs，which performed at the pub in Sydney’s Double Bay each week.”和“Even after his diagnosis，his passion for music remained unwavering”可知，音乐是作者父亲的爱好。故选C。 解析 √ 2.Which of the following can best describe Michael? A.Outgoing and patient. B.Humorous and kind. C.Hard-working and honest. D.Creative and strong. √ 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Dad...was always extremely creative”和“...my father had other ideas for his inspiration，beginning producing abstract pieces，explaining it helped us to see the world differently.”可知，作者的父亲是富有创造力的，有独特的理念。根据第二段中的“Even in the advanced stages of Parkinson’s，my father decided to keep painting.”和第四段中的“Unfortunately，in 2022，he was diagnosed with kidney cancer...my father seemed a walking miracle”可知，作者的父亲坚持与疾病作斗争，可推知他是坚强的。故选D。 解析 3.What was Michael’s exhibition like? A.Historic. B.Challenging. C.Impressive. D.Unattractive. 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Everyone loved his works.”可知，观众很喜欢作者父亲的作品，因此这场展览算得上令人印象深刻。故选C。 解析 √ 4.What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A.To honor her father. B.To prove her father’s ability. C.To show her pity to her father. D.To describe her father’s suffering. 写作意图题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了作者的父亲Michael在患病后依然坚持绘画和热爱音乐的故事，展现了他的坚强和创造力，以及他对艺术的热爱。由此推知，作者写这篇文章是为了向她的父亲致敬。故选A。 解析 √ B (2025·四川高二上期中) The law of supply and demand determines that an overabundance of anything will lead to a decrease in price.This rule applies not only to goods and services，but also to lifestyle and fashion trends. 语篇解读　本文是一篇议论文。文章通过供需法则引出生活方式和时尚趋势的变化，并以作者个人经历为例，说明人们无需追求奢华生活或巨大成就即可获得幸福，强调平凡生活的意义。 In the 19th century，the primitive paintings of Picasso and Matisse shook up the positive image of the French bourgeoisie(中产阶级).In the 1970s，talented musicians with tailored costumes and egos were overshadowed by a band of punk rockers who sang about the cruel realities of ordinary life in poor urban areas. I predict that this will also happen with beauty standards.The idealized version of life portrayed in fashion magazines will reach a turning point，as people become tired of unattainable perfection. During my time in Washington D.C.in the 1990s，I had the opportunity to interact with numerous political celebrities.While chatting with former presidents or bumping into TV pundits(名嘴) in elevators，I also assisted former Secretary of Defense Robert McNamara，who was my boss’s boss.What struck me was how plain these people appeared in real life despite their public characters.Like everyone else，they grappled with insecurities and mood swings，even though they were constantly under the spotlight. Yes，it was great to drop names on the phone to my friends.My father，of course，couldn’t understand why I would ever want to leave there.“Because you’re not me and I’m not impressed，” I told him.We do not need to lead a luxurious life or make groundbreaking achievements to be content.Happiness can be found in living out the ordinary moments of an authentic life. Most of us end up being ordinary people without doing anything that changes the world，but that does not mean our lives are meaningless.In fact，it is precisely this realization that leads to sustainable happiness because，when all is said and done，no one’s lifestyle is essentially better than any other’s. 5.What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A.People’s lifestyle was changed by French bourgeoisie. B.New forms of art and music started to focus more on reality. C.Artists and musicians called on people to lead a simple and real life. D.Ordinary people’s understanding of art and music was in a lower class at that time. √ 段落大意题。根据第二段可知，19世纪，毕加索和马蒂斯的绘画作品动摇了法国中产阶级的正面形象。20世纪70年代，一群朋克摇滚歌手通过他们的歌曲，揭示了城市贫穷地区平凡生活的残酷现实，使那些穿着定制服装、自我意识强烈且才华横溢的传统音乐家显得黯然失色。本段通过这两个例子，说明了新的艺术和音乐形式开始更加关注现实。故选B。 解析 6.What does the author’s observation about political celebrities suggest? A.They are just like ordinary people. B.They lack the ability to lead a normal life. C.They are not as successful as they claim to be. D.They are not as intelligent as they appear on TV. √ 推理判断题。根据第四段中“What struck me was how plain these people appeared in real life despite their public characters.Like everyone else，they grappled with insecurities and mood swings，even though they were constantly under the spotlight.”可知，作者观察到政治名人尽管在公众面前有光鲜的形象，但在现实生活中却和普通人一样，有不安全感和情绪波动。由此推知，作者认为政治名人就像普通人一样。故选A。 解析 7.Which of the following can best replace the underline phrase in paragraph 4? A.Struggled with. B.Agreed with. C.Came up with. D.Competed with. 词义猜测题。根据画线短语上文“Like everyone else”和下文“insecurities and mood swings”可推知，政治名人和其他人一样，他们也会与不安全感和情绪波动作斗争。画线短语grappled with意为“与……作斗争”，和struggled with意思相近。故选A。 解析 √ 8.What does the author want to imply in the last paragraph? A.No one’s lifestyle is as same as others’. B.People should strive for a better lifestyle. C.People should be content with their own lifestyles. D.People should critically evaluate other people’s lifestyles. √ 推理判断题。根据最后一段内容“我们大多数人最终都是普通人，没有做什么改变世界的大事，但这并不意味着我们的生活就没有意义。事实上，正是这种认识带来了持久的幸福，因为归根结底，没有谁的生活方式本质上比其他人的更好”可推知，作者暗示人们应该对自己的生活方式感到满足。故选C。 解析 (2024·安徽皖江名校高二上联考) Najma Hashi(also named Nujuum) is a respected female artist，whose paintings are winning a global following. 语篇解读　本文为一篇记叙文，介绍了26岁的索马里艺术家Najma Hashi(Nujuum)在周围人不支持的情况下依然追求艺术梦想的故事。 Ⅳ.完形填空 But Nujuum is not your 1 next-generation rising star.Nujuum,26，grew up in Somalia，where new artists，especially female ones，are 2 from pursuing art. 1.A.unusual B.intelligent C.ambitious D.typical 2.A.protected B.prevented C.helped D.saved √ √ 1.unusual特别的，独特的；intelligent聪明的，有才智的；ambitious有野心的；typical典型的。根据下文“Nujuum,26，grew up in Somalia，where new artists，especially female ones，are from pursuing art.”并结合下文描述Nujuum在追梦途中遇到的困难可知，她并不是典型的下一代新星，她的成名之路并不顺畅。故选D。 2.protect保护；prevent阻止，阻碍；help帮助；save拯救。根据第三段的“that art isn’t a respected profession in her country”可知，在她的国家艺术不受尊重，即新晋艺术家被阻碍追求艺术。故选B。 解析 This young artist grew up in a 3 living environment，which she has 4 to watching a horror movie：war，drought，poverty and hunger. 3.A.peaceful B.comfortable C.terrible D.civilized 4.A.compared B.refused C.determined D.failed √ √ 3.peaceful平静的；comfortable舒适的；terrible可怕的；civilized文明的。根据“a horror movie：war，drought，poverty and hunger”可知，Nujuum是在可怕的环境中长大的。故选C。 4.compare将……比作；refuse拒绝；determine决定；fail失败。根据句意可知，Nujuum将自己的生活环境比作看恐怖电影。故选A。 解析 Since Nujuum was seven， 5 she went，she felt moved to paint.As a child，on her way home from school，she would sit by the 6 and draw pictures in the sand. 5.A.somewhere B.nowhere C.everywhere D.where 6.A.shore B.table C.station D.store √ √ 5.somewhere某处；nowhere无处；everywhere到处；where哪里。根据下文“she would sit by the and draw pictures in the sand”可知，Nujuum喜欢画画，她无论走到哪里都想画画。故选C。 6.shore海岸；table桌子；station站台；store商店。根据“draw pictures in the sand”可知，Nujuum会坐在海边，在沙滩上画画。故选A。 解析 “I was thinking of creating my own little world，getting away from 7 .Art has always been a form of 8 for me.” As she went through school，she drew a whole city on her bedroom wall using her school pencils. 7.A.imagination B.extinction C.reality D.danger 8.A.survival B.relief C.excellence D.prize √ √ 7.imagination想象力；extinction灭绝；reality现实；danger危险。根据“creating my own little world”可知，Nujuum想要创造自己的世界，逃离现实。故选C。 8.survival幸存；relief解脱，调剂；excellence优秀，卓越；prize奖品，奖项。根据“getting away from the ”可知，沉浸在艺术中对于Nujuum来说是一种解脱。故选B。 解析 However，Nujuum was well 9 that art isn’t a respected profession in her country.“Art， 10 ，in the Somalian community is not a good thing to do，” she says.Her mother did not share her dreams，nor did her neighbors who considered them 11 . 9.A.concerned B.likely C.positive D.aware 10.A.in general B.in person C.in shock D.in secret 11.A.normal B.confusing C.useful D.strange √ √ √ 9.concerned担忧的；likely可能的；positive积极乐观的；aware知道的。根据下文“Art， ，in the Somalian community is not a good thing to do”可知，此处指Nujuum很清楚地知道艺术在索马里不是一个受人尊敬的职业。故选D。 10.in general总体上；in person亲自；in shock震惊地；in secret秘密地。根据“Her mother did not share her dreams，nor did her neighbors”可知，她周围的人都不看好艺术，所以，总体上，艺术在索马里被认为不是好事。故选A。 11.normal正常的；confusing令人困惑的；useful有用的；strange奇怪的，陌生的。根据“Her mother did not share her dreams，nor did her neighbors”并结合上文提到索马里不鼓励艺术可知，邻居认为追求艺术的梦想很奇怪。故选D。 解析 This 12 made her give up art for a while.However，she realized that she had a(n) 13 ：“Either I continue drawing and painting and create a beautiful life or I stay unhappy for the rest of my life.” Finally，Nujuum turned her 14 in art into something she could make a living from. 12.A.pressure B.shame C.consequence D.extent 13.A.advantage B.opportunity C.intention D.choice 14.A.tendency B.appreciation C.interest D.entertainment √ √ √ 12.pressure压力；shame愧疚；consequence后果；extent程度。根据“made her give up art for a while”可知，上文讲到的大家的不理解是一种压力，迫使她暂时放弃了艺术。故选A。 13.advantage优势；opportunity机会；intention意图，目的；choice选择。根据“Either I continue drawing and painting and create a beautiful life or I stay unhappy for the rest of my life.”可知，Nujuum意识到自己面临一个选择。故选D。 14.tendency趋势；appreciation欣赏，感激；interest兴趣；entertainment娱乐。根据上文描述可知，Nujuum对艺术有浓厚的兴趣，并最终将它变成了自己的职业。故选C。 解析 She 15 opening a school one day for other talented local artists，enabling them to choose art as a career too. 15.A.agrees with B.dreams of C.consists of D.knows of √ agree with同意；dream of梦想；consist of由……组成；know of知道，了解。根据“opening a school one day for other talented local artists，enabling them to choose art as a career too.”并结合Nujuum自己追求艺术的经历可知，Nujuum梦想着有一天能够为其他艺术家开办一所学校。故选B。 解析 返 回 本课结束 $
