Part 4 配餐式作业——高考题型精准练
(限时30分钟)
Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2022·昆明市高三“三诊一模”)
“Time flies.Youth fades.Treasure each moment of your life,” accompanied by
guitar and drums,the Band for One,made up of five people,sang the lyrics(歌
词 )soulfully during a performance in Hangzhou , Zhejiang Province , on
November 7,2020.
Behind the band,there was a picture of a young man named Philip Hancock shown
on the screen.And he is the reason why they were all there.Hancock was a 27-year-
old Australian who taught English in Chongqing.When he died in 2018 due to a
disease,his parents followed his wishes and donated his organs.
The five people introduced themselves onstage.They are the ones who received
Philip’s organs. “Last November,the Red Cross officials told me Philip’s parents
mentioned during an earlier memorial service that he loved music and dreamed of
having his own band one day,” said Chen Xianjun,a recipient (接受者).Chenwas instantly on board to form a band in memory of Philip,and so were the other
four recipients.
Since they had no music experience , they had to start__from__scratch.From
learning the guitar,to mastering the maracas and taking on the drums,they took
time out of their busy lives to practice over the past year.Peter Hancock,Philip’s
father,said after watching the band’s performance,his biggest wish is for the five
to enjoy their lives more.
Organ donation is not only the best way to honor a loved one,but also a remarkable
way to save the lives of others.China faces a serious shortage of organs,with about
300,000 people waiting for organ transplant surgeries each year.But the good news
is,more and more people have been signing up to be organ donors,showing the
spirit of selflessness that Philip and so many others have shown.
【语篇解读】 本文是记叙文。27岁的澳大利亚人菲利普在重庆教英语,2018
年不幸因病去世,父母遵照他的遗愿将器官捐献了。菲利普生前喜欢音乐,为
了感恩,五位获助者组建了乐队并在杭州参加了表演。
1.Why did the five people form the band?
A.To compete in a singing performance.
B.To show their respect for Peter Hancock.
C.To raise money for the local Red Cross.
D.To express their appreciation to Philip.
答案 D [细节理解题。根据第三段内容,尤其尾句“Chen was instantly on
board to form a band in memory of Philip,and so were the other four recipients”可
知,菲利普去世后,父母遵照他的遗愿将器官捐赠了,五位获助者为了表达对
菲利普的感谢组建了一个乐队。]2.How long did it take the recipients to prepare for the performance?
A.One year. B.Two years.
C.Three years. D.Five years.
答案 A [细节理解题。根据第四段第二句“From learning the guitar,to
mastering...lives to practice over the past year”可知,为准备好演出,获助者们花
了一年时间。]
3.What do the underlined words“start from scratch” in paragraph 4 mean?
A.lose interest in music
B.practice from the very beginning
C.take part in training courses
D.turn to some musicians for help
答案 B [词句猜测题。根据第四段第一句中的“Since they had no music
experience”可知,他们没有与音乐相关的经验,结合该段第二句“From learning
the guitar,to mastering...lives to practice over the past year”可以判断,由于没有
经验,获助者们从头开始学起,他们花了一年时间做准备。故画线部分意为
“从头开始”。]
4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.Citizens are encouraged to donate organs.
B.Organ donation is the best way to save lives.
C.The author thinks highly of organ donation.
D.Few people are willing to donate their organs.
答案 C [推理判断题。根据尾段第一句“Organ donation is not only...to savethe lives of others”可知,器官捐赠不仅是纪念所爱之人的最好方式,也是拯救他
人生命的非凡方式。据此可以推知,作者对器官捐赠高度赞同。]

(2022·郑州市高三质量预测)
There you are,looking through your WeChat moments or your Weibo feed,and you
come across a post saying something like this:“I just got accepted to Harvard and
Oxford!Are they sure they didn’t mix my applications up with somebody else’s?”
This person is clearly humblebragging.The term “humblebrag” was first coined back
in 2010 by the late US comedian Harris Wittels,and it describes when someone
makes a seemingly modest statement,but the actual purpose is to bring attention to
something they are proud of.
The example above is a modesty - based humblebrag.The person wants to tell
others:“I got accepted to Harvard and Oxford!” However,they don’t want to
seem too proud of their accomplishments.So,instead,they word it in a way to be
more modest and bring down the importance of their achievements.
Although people who humblebrag think it will make them more likeable because they
aren’t talking proudly about their victories,a study published in the Journal of
Personality and Social Psychology showed that humblebragging actually has the
opposite effect.
“Humblebragging doesn’t have the intended result because it seems insincere.That‘poor me’ attitude combined with self-promotion does not lead to a favorable
impression,” said Ovul Sezer,the lead author of the study and an assistant
professor of organizational behavior at the University of North Carolina , US.
“Even simply bragging or complaining (抱怨) is better,because at least people
expressing those messages are seen as the sincere ones.”
Sezer’s study also found that nearly 60% of humblebrags were complaint-based
humblebragging,with most people humblebragging about their looks,followed by
their money or wealth,and finally about their performance at work. “It’s such a
common phenomenon.All of us know some people in our lives,whether in the social
media or in the workplace,who do this annoying thing,” commented Sezer,
adding that we all do it to some extent.
So,if you want to share your achievements with others,what’s the best way to do it
then? Sezer suggests that people admit their self-promotion and harvest the rewards
of being sincere.She also suggests finding a go-between,adding,“If someone
brags for you,that’s the best thing that can happen to you,because then you don’t
seem like you’re bragging.”

Are you afraid of expressing ideas or making negative comments? Do you always say
yes to seek shelter or want approval from others?__1__ You probably tend to satisfy
other people’s needs ahead of your own. In the long run, it will have a side effect on
your life. It’ll take some time for you to adjust, and it’s time to know how.
•Say “no” effectively.
It might take some practice, but let people know when you can’t do what they want. If
a flat “no” seems difficult to you,show your understanding for the person and his or
her needs.__2__
•Set your priorities.
__3__ It helps you choose what to say yes to and what to decline. If you feel trapped
in a decision, write a list of your demands (or options) and place them in order of
what’s most important to you.
•__4__
There’s nothing wrong with voicing your opinions.Simply reminding people that
you’re an individual with your own preference is a big step forward. If you tend to
please people by going along with other people instead of voicing your likes or
dislikes, speak out.
•Take care of yourself.
Ignoring your needs can be a sign of a lack of self-love.Looking after yourself andtaking care of your body isn’t selfish.__5__ Eat healthy meals, exercise regularly, and
do things that make your body feel good.
A.Develop your preference.
B.Speak up for what you want.
C.Spare some time each day for your health.
D.If you agree to help someone, set a time limit.

F.Place the most important at the top of the schedule.
G.Still, you need to be firm in saying that you cannot help them.
【语篇解读】 本文是说明文,主要介绍了如何做到不讨好他人,比如有效地
说“不”,照顾好自己等。
1.E [过渡衔接句。根据上文中的一般疑问句可知,空处应该会是对这些问题
的回答或归纳,选项中只有E项符合这一要求,故E项符合语境。]
2.G [过渡衔接句。本段的主旨句讲“有效地说‘不’”,再根据空前一句表
述的“如果断然拒绝对你来说是困难的,那就展示你对别人及其需要的理解”
可知,空处与空前一句形成转折,呼应主旨句,因此G项符合语境。]
3.F [过渡衔接句。本段的主旨句表述了“设置你的优先事项”,再根据空后
一句表述的“它帮助你选择什么能说‘好’,什么需要拒绝”可知,空处讲的
应与“为自己设置一个有优先级的事件表”有关的内容,所以F项符合语境。]
4.B [主旨概括句。通读本段可知,本段主要讲“要说出自己的喜好”,故B项适合作本段的主旨句。]
5.C [过渡衔接句。空前一句讲“照顾自己和自己的身体并不是自私”,而空
后一句表述了“要拥有健康饮食,有规律地锻炼,并做一些让自己的身体感觉
良好的事情”,所以C项“每天为自己的健康抽出一些时间”符合语境。]
