参考范文
My dear fellow students，
Aiming to help improve the efficiency of learning English，I resolve to make an appeal to all
of the students in our class to make it a habit to do English reading every morning.
As far as I’m concerned，in no case should we ignore the importance of morning reading.
It is an effective way to read aloud，which not only helps us feel the charm of English but
also enables us to have a good sense of language.In/With reference to the tasks，it is strongly
recommended that we should break down them and complete them one by one.On the assumption
that we stick to doing it in this way，we are bound to memorize what we have learned very well.
I sincerely hope that everyone of us will take action immediately and be occupied in study
heart and soul!

高考题型组合练
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
The first essay I wrote for my history of English class was perfect ，at least from my
perspective.I had worked on it constantly and couldn’t wait to get my grade back.I handed it in
with pride.
Two weeks later，I received my grade：a D．The pages were covered in red writing，
pointing out errors.There must have been a mistake.
University started later for me than most.The opportunity wasn’t available when I was
younger—too many kids in our family and too little money.But I never stopped wondering what
university would have been like.I was in my 40s when I sent in my application and as a part-time
student，I will be in my 60s before I’m finished.That’s my goal.
What’s it like to be the old guy in a class full of 20-year-olds? It’s strange.They pretty
much ignored me，and I ignored them.They also ignored each other.However，after we had more
group work together，people started to communicate.Although I was an English major，some of
my favorite classes were unrelated electives.Courses in art history and Greek and Roman history
were fascinating.I was eager to do well.
I arranged a meeting to discuss my essay grade and arrived 10 minutes early to meet the
teacher’s assistant.I was ready to argue for the brilliance of my paper.However，she quickly
explained to me that the paper failed to make a strong argument.The mark remained.
While I kept studying and kept learning，I learned to love two dozen writers I had never
heard of before and explored types of literature I had never examined.Eventually，I learned how to
write an essay in proper academic prose.
University is different when you are a senior，part-time student.If you are there to establish a
career or because your parents force you to go，there are other pressures.For me，it’s justlearning.Whether I’m learning remotely or in person，it makes the world a bigger，richer place.
语篇解读 这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲的是作者在40多岁的时候申请成为一名兼职学
生，之后不断努力学习，终于能够写出一篇合适的学术论文的故事。
1．How did the writer feel after receiving the grade of his first essay?
A．Hopeless. B．Pleased.
C．Excited. D．Surprised.
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。根据第二段的“The pages were covered in red writing，pointing out
errors.There must have been a mistake.”并结合第一段第一句“The first essay I wrote for my
history of English class was perfect，at least from my perspective.”可知，作者在收到第一篇论
文的分数后觉得惊讶，故选D。
2．Why did the writer start university later than others?
A．His application was refused.
B．His teacher disliked his essay.
C．His health did not meet the standard.
D．His family was not rich enough.
答案 D
解析 细节理解题。根据第三段的“University started later for me than most.The opportunity
wasn’t available when I was younger—too many kids in our family and too little money.”可知，
作者上大学比其他人晚是因为他的家庭不够富裕。故选D。
3．What helped the writer in writing a proper academic essay?
A．Strong curiosity.
B．Constant efforts.
C．Great pressure.
D．Remarkable creativity.
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段的“While I kept studying and kept learning...I learned
how to write an essay in proper academic prose.”可知，不断的努力帮助作者写出一篇合适的
学术论文。故选B。
4．Which would be the best title for the passage?
A．Practice Makes Perfect
B．Not All That Shines Is Gold
C．Where There Is a Will，There Is a Way
D．Action Speaks Louder Than Words答案 C
解析 标题归纳题。通读全文，尤其是倒数第二段的“While I kept studying and kept
learning...in proper academic prose.”可知，本文主要讲的是作者在40多岁的时候申请成为一
名兼职学生，之后不断努力学习，终于能够写出一篇合适的学术论文的故事，说明了“有志
者事竟成”这个道理，所以C项最适合作标题。故选C。
B
Science fiction has always been the source of all sorts of wonderful ideas about what life
might be like in years to come.Writers，film-makers and video game designers have all turned
their imaginations to the effects technology might have on our future.Now it seems like we’re
finally catching up with some of these futuristic ideas thanks to nanotechnology.
Nanoscience focuses on the study of tiny molecules—only one billionth of a meter in size.For
years，nanoscience has explored ways of applying this research to different types of technology，
and recently it has begun to engender more and more diverse and fascinating developments.
Imagine a substance with the ability to heal any wound almost immediately.This is a common
feature in video games：when characters suffer injuries，a gel(凝胶) is applied which heals them
and prolongs(延长) their lives.Not long ago，it seemed impossible to recreate this in real life.But
now，by extracting polysaccharide polymers(多糖聚合物) from the cell walls of plants，scientists
have created a gel which will hold a wound together and rapidly stop any bleeding without the need
for pressure to be applied.Although not yet available in hospitals，this gel is likely to help medical
professionals treat patients with serious injuries more effectively.
While some advances in nanotechnology might improve our health and safety，others could
have the opposite effect.In the food industry，nanoparticles(纳米粒子) are already in use to
improve the appearance of products.The problem is，nanoparticles are more reactive in the body，
and no tests have been done to check their safety.In effect ，we are all part of a real-life
experiment.Will they help or hurt? Nobody knows.
What is clear is that nanotechnology has huge potential for shaping our lives in the coming
decades.Even if we can’t see it with our eyes ， we will surely see the impact on our
surroundings，and perhaps our bodies.In the future，the lines between reality and science fiction
are likely to become even more blurred.
5．What does the underlined word “engender” in paragraph 2 mean?
A．Focus on. B．Bring about.
C．Slow down. D．Deal with.
答案 B
解析 词义猜测题。根据第二段的“nanoscience has explored ways of applying this research to
different types of technology”和“more and more diverse and fascinating developments”并结合下文举的凝胶的例子可知，纳米科学已经开始带来越来越多样化和引人入胜的进展，画线词
engender意为“引起，带来”，和bring about意思相近，故选B。
6．What do we know about the gel mentioned in paragraph 3?
A．It can make people live longer.
B．It can replace the need for surgery.
C．It is designed for high-pressure situations.
D．It is expected to be used in emergency treatment.
答案 D
解析 细节理解题。根据第三段的“But now，by extracting polysaccharide polymers...treat
patients with serious injuries more effectively.”可知，这种凝胶可以快速止血、促进伤口愈合，
所以被期待用于紧急治疗。故选D。
7．What does the author think about the effects of nanotechnology on food?
A．They are long-lasting.
B．They are overestimated.
C．They are currently unclear.
D．They are surprisingly beneficial.
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“In the food industry...Will they help or hurt? Nobody
knows.”可知，作者认为纳米技术对食品的影响目前还不明确。故选C。
8．What is the author’s attitude to nanotechnology?
A．Objective. B．Indifferent.
C．Conservative. D．Disapproving.
答案 A

Ⅱ.七选五
A future where insects make up a large part of the world’s diet is on the horizon.Despite the
unpleasant nature of such cuisine，insects have been considered a delicacy in some parts of world
for centuries.Their being low-fat and high-protein makes them a perfect choice for reducing hunger.
1
Animal protein from livestock(家畜)，such as cows，chicken and pigs，takes up 80 percent
of the entire world’s farmland，despite only making up less than one-fifth of calories consumed
globally. 2 Thus it would support a variety of biodiversity as nature intended.
Insects such as grasshoppers，meal worms and crickets are packed full of protein with much
higher vitamin levels than pork or beef. 3 Greenhouse gas emissions through this process arealso very little，with insect waste making excellent fertilizer(肥料) for agricultural soil.
It seems that insects are an ideal solution for many issues the world today is faced with. 4
Urban areas of Asia，Europe and North America are most likely to associate insects with dirt
instead of as a tasty meal.
Times are changing.The European Union last year declared that meal worms were safe for
human consumption.Cricket protein powder is also increasing greatly in popularity，with Canada
rapidly becoming the largest market for the product.
5 As we explore our solar system，efficient means of producing animal-based proteins
will become vital.None are more efficient space-wise than insects.And the colonies of the future
could well find themselves enjoying fried crickets with a pint of beer while watching the Martian
sunset.
A．They also have a host of environmental benefits.
B．Insects reproduce quickly and have high growth rates.
C．Unlike agriculture，insects produce far fewer greenhouse gases.
D．They require little space，water and technology to raise compared to livestock.
E．However，making them a delicious cuisine can be a challenge in several cultures.
F．By freeing up livestock space，huge expanses of land could be returned to nature.
G．A future where insects will become invaluable to space exploration is also upcoming.
1．答案 A
解析 上文指出昆虫成为美味佳肴的原因，A项“它们还有许多环境效益”承接上文，继续
描述昆虫成为美味佳肴的原因，故选A。
2．答案 F
解析 上文指出家畜占据了全世界80%的农田，F项“通过释放家畜的空间，大片的土地可
以回归自然”承接上文，指出释放这些空间会有好处，故选F。
3．答案 D
解析 上文指出饲养昆虫的好处，即昆虫富含蛋白质，且维生素含量比猪肉或牛肉高得多，
下文也是在讲饲养昆虫带来的环境效益。由此可知，空处也应围绕饲养昆虫的好处来写，D
项“与畜牧业相比，它们需要很少的空间、水和技术来饲养”承上启下，符合语境，故选
D。
4．答案 E
解析 上文“It seems that insects are an ideal solution for many issues the world today is faced
with.”指出用昆虫制作美味佳肴能解决许多问题，下文指出有些地区不用昆虫来做美味佳
肴。由此可知，E项“然而，在不同的文化中，让它们成为美味的菜肴是一个挑战”和上文
是转折关系，且下文具体说明了E项的内容，故选E。
5．答案 G解析 下文“As we explore our solar system，efficient means of producing animal-based
proteins will become vital.None are more efficient space-wise than insects.”指出昆虫在太空探索
方面发挥的作用。由此可知，G项“昆虫将成为太空探索无价之宝的未来也即将到来”引起
下文，符合语境，故选G。

语篇解读 本文是一篇新闻报道。中国教育部发布通知，决定成立一所国立老年大学，此举
旨在应对老龄化问题，建设终身学习型社会。
1．答案 intention
解析 考查名词。不定冠词an后应为单数名词。故填intention。
2．答案 a
解析 考查冠词。 修饰可数名词单数school，表示泛指，应用不定冠词，lifelong的发音以
辅音音素开头。故填a。
3．答案 covering
解析 考查非谓语动词。 分析句子结构可知，本空为非谓语动词作后置定语，和被修饰词
system之间为主动关系，应用现在分词。故填covering。
4．答案 of
解析 考查介词。固定搭配：be composed of，意为“由……组成”。故填of。
5．答案 Based
解析 考查非谓语动词。 分析句子结构可知，本空为非谓语动词作状语，和主句主语“the
National University for the Aged”之间为被动关系，应用过去分词。设空处位于句首，首字
母应大写。故填Based。6．答案 whose

University for the Aged”，和空后的“curriculum”之间为所属关系，应用关系代词whose引
导。故填whose。
7．答案 their

主代词。故填their。
8．答案 be limited
解析 考查动词的语态。 分析句子结构可知，本空为谓语动词；主语 care和动词limit之间
为被动关系，所以用被动语态；should后跟动词原形。故填be limited。
9．答案 Currently
解析 考查副词。空处修饰整个句子，应用副词作状语。设空处位于句首，首字母应大写。
故填Currently。
10．答案 to popularize
解析 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，此处为make的复合结构“make it＋adj.＋to
do”，it为形式宾语，替代真正的宾语to do，故本空应填不定式结构。 故填to popularize。
Ⅴ.读后续写微写作
“Go home and ask your mummy about your blind brother! I am surprised you didn’t know
that he is as blind as a bat！” Hearing Nathan’s words，I wanted to land a blow on him for
making fun of my two-year-old brother，David，but I was more desperate to find out the truth.
With a misty vision，I ran home as fast as I could.Still out of breath，I questioned，“Is
David blind？” Mother turned to me with tears in her eyes.“Yes，he’s born blind.” It was a
heartbreaking moment.I knew clearly the dream of showing David my cool soccer moves or
playing videogames with him ended cruelly.“Why did you keep the truth from me? I often
wondered why he didn’t look at me or why he was always tripping over things and I thought it
was because he was still too young...” Before I could continue any further，mother hugged me
and cried，“I’m sorry，Caleb.Dad and I just didn’t know how to tell you.”
Suddenly ， it struck me that David was blind but he could still hear the whole
conversation.Not wanting him to be affected by it，I stopped crying and went forward and
embraced him.“I love you so much，David.” Worry crept upon me: How hard life would be for
him!
Little did I know that David was to inspire me so greatly.
As David grew up，he was fairly strong-willed.Despite the challenges that he faced，he
continued to attend the school for visually impaired children.He insisted he would take the bus
home on his own.Often，he would walk through the main door looking sheepish and saying the
same phrase，“Sorry Mum，I am late.I boarded the wrong bus again.”Tough as life was，there was always silver lining of misfortune.Despite not being able to
see，he could play a piece of music after listening to it being played once on the piano.He even
dreamed of playing solo(独奏) one day onstage.Luckily for him，the school had discovered
David’s extraordinary talent.
范文补全
One day，David burst through the main door excitedly.1.Unable to conceal his delight
and thrill(不能隐藏他的高兴和兴奋)，he announced that the school would like him to play solo
at the school musical concert.The whole family was extremely thrilled for him，for 2.it was a
perfect opportunity to realize his music dream(它是一个实现他的音乐梦想的完美机会)．There
was also a bit worry that he might suffer a blow in case of a failure，which threw us into a hint of
uneasiness.But we had faith in him.The following days witnessed him repeatedly practicing the
chosen music skillfully.3.Then came the big day when he would go onstage(然后到了他要上台的
那个重要的日子)．
Tapping the ground with his walking stick，David entered the stage.4.With the widest
smile on his face(脸上带着最灿烂的笑容)，he walked towards the grand piano located in the
middle of the stage.I sat up with anticipation，heart filled with pride.His fingers flew on the keys
as his music filled the air of the 500-seat concert hall.After the last note was played,5.the whole hall
erupted into applause(整个大厅爆发出了掌声)．David stood up and took a bow，smiling
broadly as the spotlight shone brightly on him.He would always be an inspiration to me.Through
him,6.I learned having an unflagging spirit could overcome challenges(我学到了不屈不挠的精神
能克服挑战) and David truly had that.
