(浙江專用)2022年高考英語大一輪新優(yōu)化復習 考點強化練26 Unit 2 Poems 新人教版選修6.閱讀理解A(2018·全國)Languages have been ing and going for thousands of years,but in recent times there has been less ing and a lot more going.When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers,small,tightly knit(聯(lián)系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other.Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago,when the world had just five to ten million people,they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards,many of those people started settling down to bee farmers,and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number.In recent centuries,trade,industrialisation,the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal pulsory education,especially globalisation and better munications in the past few decades,all have caused many languages to disappear,and dominant languages such as English,Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over.At present,the world has about 6,800 languages.The distribution of these languages is hugely uneven.The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages,often spoken by many people,while hot,wet zones have lots,often spoken by small numbers.Europe has only around 200 languages;the Americas about 1,000;Africa 2,400;and Asia and the Pacific perhaps 3,200,of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800.The median number(中位數(shù)) of speakers is a mere 6,000,which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡),with only a few elderly speakers left.Pick,at random,Busuu in Cameroon(eight remaining speakers),Chiapaneco in Mexico(150),Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu in Australia(one,with a question-mark):none of these seems to have much chance of survival.【語篇導讀】本文是說明文。在依靠狩獵和采集生活的時代,語種眾多。但是隨著工業(yè)化、貿易、全球化等的發(fā)展,許多語種消失了。1.What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?A.They developed very fast.B.They were large in number.C.They had similar patterns.D.They were closely connected.答案B解析推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段中的“When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers.they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them”可知,在依靠狩獵和采集生活的時代,人們使用的語言種類很多。2.Which of the following best explains“dominant”underlined in paragraph 2?A.plex.B.Advanced.C.Powerful.D.Modern.答案C解析詞義猜測題。根據(jù)上文提到的“.all have caused many languages to disappear”和下文的“such as English,Spanish and Chinese are increasingly taking over”可知,英語、西班牙語和漢語正在逐漸取代一些語言。由此可猜測該詞的意思是“占優(yōu)勢的”,所以選C項。3.How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present?A.About 6,800.B.About 3,400.C.About 2,400.D.About 1,200.答案B解析細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段的第一句“At present,the world has about 6,800 languages”和最后一句中的“is a mere 6,000,which means that half the worlds languages are spoken by fewer people than that”可知,B項正確。4.What is the main idea of the text?A.New languages will be created.B.Peoples lifestyles are reflected in languages.C.Human development results in fewer languages.D.Geography determines language evolution.答案C解析主旨大意題。通讀全文可知,在依靠狩獵和采集生活的時代,語種眾多。但是隨著工業(yè)化、貿易、全球化等的發(fā)展,許多語種消失了。由此可知,人類的發(fā)展導致了語種的減少,所以選C項。BJosh Ferrin picked up the keys to their new house in Salt Lake City earlier this week.He was excited to finally have a place his family could call their own.As he walked into the garage,a box caught his eye.“I felt very surprised and called my wife.She wouldnt believe what I had found,” said Ferrin,who was working as an artist for the Deseret News in Salt Lake City.Then he found seven more boxes,all full of cash.Ferrin quickly took the boxes to his parents house to count.Along with his wife,they put thousands of bills on a table.They stopped counting at $40,000,but thought there was at least $5,000 more on the table.Ferrin thought about how so much money could buy things he never thought he could afford.“I wish I could say there was never any doubt in my mind,” Ferrin said.“But the money wasnt ours and I dont believe you get a chance very often to do something honest and that is a lesson I hope to teach my children.”He then thought about the homes previous owner,Arnold Bangerter,who died in November and left the house to his son.So Ferrin called Bangerters son with the news.Paul Bangerter knew his father hid money away because he once found a roll of cash taped under a drawer in their home,but he never considered his dad had hidden so much over the years.“He grew up in hard times and people that survived that time didnt have anything when they came out of it unless they saved it themselves,” said Paul Bangerter.“He was a saver,not a spender.”“Im a father,and I worry about the future for my kids,” Ferrin said.“I can see him putting that money away for a rainy day.” 【語篇導讀】Ferrin搬進新家后偶然發(fā)現(xiàn)了先前的房主積攢的幾箱子錢,他聯(lián)系到房主的兒子,將這筆錢還給了他。5.Seeing so much cash,Ferrins first thought was to . A.ask his parents to hide itB.put it back where it wasC.return it to its ownerD.buy what he couldnt afford before答案D解析細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中“Ferrin thought about how so much money could buy things he never thought he could afford.I wish I could say there was never any doubt in my mind,Ferrin said”可知,Ferrin首先想到的是要用這些錢購買以前買不起的東西。6.How did Bangerters son know his father had hidden away money?A.He once stole money from the place where his father put money secretly.B.He once found some cash under a drawer in their home.C.He once happened to see some money hidden in his fathers bed.D.He once heard his father mentioned he had hidden away all his money in a hole.答案B解析細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段最后一句話可知。7.What does the underlined part “a rainy day” refer to?A.Difficult times.B.Lucky days.C.A day when it is rainy.D.A day when he dies.答案A解析詞義猜測題。根據(jù)畫線部分所在句子上文“Im a father,and I worry about the future for my kids”可知,Ferrin理解Arnold Bangerter作為父親擔心孩子的將來,所以總會把錢攢起來以備不時之需的做法。.七選五Television is everywhere around us.Yet it is great for learning English.The pictures make it easier to understand than radio,because you can see whos talking,and get a better idea of what people mean.Just watch their “body language”!Watch programs that you find enjoyable and entertaining.1.Heres the guide to learning as much as possible while watching English television:2.Learning English should be funnot something that you have to force yourself to do.If you have a passion for football,watch matches or the sports news.Keep a notebook near to your television.3.This is especially useful.You can look for programs with sub-titles in your own language.
