真题体验 (2021·天津3月)
For Pruitt，a keen bicyclist，the first thing to do was 19.replace his stolen bike.But when
he went bike shopping，he found few available，which got him thinking: What if the 20 of
bikes was COVID-19 related，and what if the person who’d taken his bike really needed 21
to get to work?
20．A.lack B．variety
C．increase D．quality
答案 A
解析 lack缺乏；variety多样性；increase增加；quality质量。句意为：但当他去买自行车
时，发现几乎没有自行车，这让他想到：如果缺少自行车与COVID-19有关，如果骑他的
自行车的人真的需要交通工具去上班呢？根据上文“he found few available”可知商店里缺
少自行车。
21．A.instruction B．qualification
C．transportation D．permission

前后文“needed...to get to work”可知，Pruitt猜测偷自己自行车的人是因为确实需要交通工具去上班。

一词多义和熟词生义是近几年高考不断出现的词汇活用现象。备考时应注意单词本义
以及根据词根推断单词生僻意义。

37．A.reward B．medicine
C．company D．shelter
答案 C
解析 reward报酬，奖赏；medicine药物；company公司，陪伴；shelter躲避处，避难所。
根据文章首句“My mother is 92.”可知，作者的母亲年事已高，作者会陪着母亲去购物、去
看医生。company本义是“公司”，此处是“陪伴”的意思。

解析 arrive到达；work工作，起作用；end结束；disappear消失。句意为：他的信起了作
用。根据下文“Burchill is now welcome to come back”可知，酒店现在欢迎Burchill入住酒
店，说明酒店终身禁止他入住的问题解决了，即他的道歉信起作用了。 work本义是“工

1、（2022·全国·高考乙卷）
Young children across the globe enjoy playing games of hide and seek. For them, there’s
something highly exciting about ___1___ someone else’s glance and making oneself unable to
be seen.
However, we all witness that preschool children are remarkably ___2___ at hiding. They
often cover only their eyes with their hands, leaving the rest of their bodies ___3___.
For a long time, this ineffective hiding method was ___4___ as evidence that children are
hopelessly “egocentric” (自我中心的) creatures. But our ___5___ research results in child
developmental psychology ___6___ that idea.
We brought young children aged 2-4 into our Minds in Development Lab at USC．Each
___7___ sat down with an adult who covered her own eyes or ___8___. We then asked the child
if she could ___9___ or hear the adult. Surprisingly, children replied that they couldn’t. The
same _____10_____ happened when the adult covered her own mouth: _____11_____ children
said that they couldn’t _____12_____ to her.
A number of _____13_____ ruled out that the children misunderstood what they were being
asked. The results were clear: Our young subjects _____14_____ the questions and knew
_____15_____ what was asked of them. Their _____16_____ to the questions reflected their
true _____17_____ that “I can see you only if you can see me, too.” They simply _____18_____
mutual (相互的) recognition and regard. Our _____19_____ suggest when a child “hides” by
putting a blanket over her head, it is not a result of egocentrism. In fact, children consider this
method _____20_____ when others use it.

2、（2018·上海·高考真题）
When 17-year-old Quattro Musser hangs out with friends, they don't drink beer or cruise
around in cars with their dates. __21__, they stick to G-rated activities such as rock- climbing or
talking about books.
They are in good company, according to a new study showing that teenagers are increasingly
delaying activities that had long been seen as rites of passage into __22__. The study, published
Tuesday in the journal Child Development, found that the percentage of adolescents in the U. S.
who have a driver's license, who have tried alcohol, who date, and who work for pay has
plummeted since 1976, with the most precipitous (急剧的) __23__ in the past decade. The
declines appeared across race, geographic, and socioeconomic lines, and in rural, urban, and
suburban areas.
To be sure, more than half of teens still engage in these activities, but the __24__ have
slimmed considerably. Teens have also reported a steady decline in sexual activity in recent
decades, as the portion of high school students who have had sex fell from 54 percent in 1991 to
41 percent in 2015, according to Centers for Disease Control statistics. u People say, 'Oh, it's
because teenagers are more responsible, or more lazy, or more boring, ' but they're __25__ the
larger trend," said Jean Twenge, lead author of the study, which drew on seven large time-lag
surveys of Americans. Rather, she said, kids may be less __26__ in activities such as dating,
driving or getting jobs because in today's society, they no longer need to.
According to an evolutionary psychology theory that a person's "life strategy" slows down or
speeds up depending on his or her __27__, exposure to a "harsh and unpredictable" environmentleads to faster development, while a more resource-rich and secure environment has the __28__
effect, the study said. In the first __29__, "You'd have a lot of kids and be in survival mode, start
having kids young, expect your kids will have kids young, and expect that there will be more
__30__and fewer resources, " said Twenge, a psychology professor at San Diego State University
who is the author of "iGen： Why Today's Super- Connected Kids Are Growing Up Less
Rebellious, More Tolerant, Less Happy-and Completely Unprepared for Adulthood."
In that model a teenage boy might be thinking more __31__ about marriage, and driving a
car and working for pay would be important for “ establishing mate value based on procurement
of resources," the study said. But America is shifting more toward the __32__model, and the
change is apparent across the socioeconomic spectrum, Twenge said. uEven in families whose
parents didn't have a college education. . . families are smaller, and the idea that children need to
be carefully __33__ has really sunk in. ‘‘ The __34__of 41 adult activities'' could not be
attributed to more homework or extracurricular activities, the study said, noting that teens today
spend fewer hours on homework and the same amount of time on extracurriculars as they did in
the 1990 s (with the exception of community service, which has risen slightly). Nor could the use
of smartphones and the Internet be entirely the __35__, the report said, since the decline began
before they were widely available. If the delay is to make room for creative exploration and
forming better social and emotional connections, it is a good thing, he said.

3、（2014·上海·高考真题）
Research has shown that two-thirds of human conversation is taken up not with discussion of
the cultural or political problems of the day, not heated debates about films we've just watched or
books we've just finished reading, but plain and simple _36_.Language is our greatest treasure as a species, and what do we _37_ do with it? We gossip.
About others' behaviour and private lives, such as who's doing what with whom, who's in and
who's out-and why; how to deal with difficult _38_ situations involving children, lovers, and
colleagues.
So why are we keen on gossiping? Are we just natural _39_, of both time and words? Or do
we talk a lot about nothing in particular simply to avoid facing up to the really important issues of
life? It's not the case according to Professor Robin Dunbar. In fact, in his latest book, Grooming,
Gossip and the Evolution of Language, the psychologist says gossip is one of these
really _40_issues.
Dunbar _41_ the traditional view that language was developed by the men at the early stage
of social development in order to organize their manly hunting activities more effectively, or even
to promote the exchange of poetic stories about their origins and the supernatural. Instead he
suggests that language evolved among women. We don't spend two-thirds of our time gossiping
just because we can talk, argues Dunbar— _42_, he goes on to say, language evolved specifically
to allow us to gossip.
Dunbar arrived at his cheery theory by studying the _43_ of the higher primates(灵长类动
物)like monkeys. By means of grooming--cleaning the fur by brushing it, monkeys form groups
with other individuals on whom they can rely for support in the event of some kind of conflict
within the group or_44_from outside it.
As we human beings evolve from a particular branch of the primate family, Dunbar __45__
that at one time in our history we did much the same. Grouping together made sense because the
bigger the group, the greater the ___46___ it provided; on the other hand, the bigger the group,
the greater the stresses of living close to others. Grooming helped to __47__ the pressure and
calm everybody down.
But as the groups got bigger and bigger, the amount of time spent in grooming activities also
had to be__48__ to maintain its effectiveness. Clearly, a more __49__ kind of grooming was
needed, and thus language evolved as a kind of vocal(有声的)grooming which allowed humans to
develop relationship with ever-larger groups by exchanging information over a wider network of
individuals than would be possible by one-to-one__50__ contact.
