第二部分 阅读理解(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
(2021·福建厦门市高三模拟)Even for a civilization as advanced as the Harappan, a second drought was
perhaps one too many. The climate disaster may be what drove the ancient society to disappear step by.
The Harappan started in the Indus valley around 5200 years ago, strongest around 2600 BC. Much about
them is unknown. Yet archaeological remains tell the story of the people, skilled in trade and city planning, and
particularly good at controlling water. Their huge cities, complete with excellent systems for underground water
and public baths, existed long before the Roman Empire.
But by 1900 BC, their society seemed to be on the fall, and by 1300 BC, the Harappan civilizations had
broken down. Several ideas have been put forward to explain the downfall, including invasion and climate change.
One recent study refers to a major drought in the northern half around 4200 years ago. This event was recently
considered as the start of the Meghalayan period. It is thought to have broken up climate systems around the world,
including the summer monsoon rainfall the Harappan depended on.
Nick Scroxton at University College Dublin, Ireland, and his team are now challenging this idea after
studying 10 ancient records. They found some facts of a sudden drought starting around 4260 years ago. The study
suggests the Harappan faced a sharp decrease in winter rain. “The civilization suffered, that's for sure,” says
Scroxton. But that wasn't the end of the Harappan. “Their politics might change, the crops might change, the
location of their cities changes, but they adapt,” says Scroxton.
Some 300 years later, however, just as the winter rains were starting to recover, a hottest drought kicked off.
This was a slowing reduction in the sum monsoon rains over several centuries. Scroxton and his team say this
second drought changed the Harappan into a poor society that disappeared at last.
21.What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. The trade with the Roman Empire. B. The site of the Harappan civilization.
C. The rise of the Harappan civilization. D. The similarities between Roman and Harappan.
22.How did Nick's team conduct the study?
A. By tracking the rainfall. B. By moving into the city.
C. By building climate systems. D. By researching ancient records.
23.What may have really ended the ancient Harappan civilization?
A. The monsoon rainfall. B. Double climate disaster.
C. The invasion of Roman. D. The change of the cities.
B(2021·江西高三模拟)Growing up in Taiwan as the daughter of a calligrapher(书法家),one of my most
treasured memories was my mother showing me the beauty, the shape and the form of Chinese characters. Ever
since then, I was attracted by this amazing language.
But to an outsider, it seems to be as impenetrable as the Great Wall of China. Over the past few years, I’ve
been wondering whether I can break down this wall, so that anyone who wants to understand and appreciate the
beauty of this complex language could do so. I started thinking about how a new, fast method of learning Chinese
might be useful.
At the age of five, 1 started to learn how to draw every single stroke(笔划)for each character in the correct
order. I learned new characters every day during the next fifteen years. You only need 1 ,000 to understand the basic
communication. The top 200 will allow you to read 40 percent of basic literature-enough to read road signs,
restaurant menus, to understand the basic idea of the web pages or the newspapers. Today I’m going to start with 8
characters to show you how the method works.
Open your mouth as wide as possible until it’s square. You get a mouth—口. This is a person going for a walk
with two legs. Person—人.The shape of the fire is a person with two arms on both sides, as if she was yelling
crazily, “Help! I’m on fire!” —火. This is a tree—木.This is a mountain—山.The sun—日. The moon—月.The
symbol of the door looks like a pair of car doors---门.These eight characters are the building blocks for you to
create lots more characters.
24.What does the underlined word “impenetrable” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Available to learn about. B. Worthwhile to access.
C. Difficult to get across. D. Important to understand.
25.Why did the author try to think of fast ways to learn Chinese?
A. To prove her ability to learn. B. To help her mother with her career.
C. To get better grades in exams. D. To enable more people to enjoy Chinese.
26.With the most frequently used 200 characters people can .
A. read restaurant menus B. understand newspapers well
C. communicate with natives D. enjoy basic literature
27.What will the author probably talk about next?
A. How the eight characters build other characters.
B. What other meanings the eight characters have.
C. Where the eight characters can be used in daily life.
D. Why the eight Chinese characters are formed in this way.C
(2021·四川高三)If you stop a random person on the street in China, there’s a pretty good chance that their
surname would be either Wang, Li, Zhang, Liu or Chen.That’s because those are the five most common surnamesin
China — shared by 30% of the population. And the vast majority of the population share just 100 of those
surnames. In comparison, the United States reported 6.3 million surnames in its 2010 census.
There are a few reasons for this: China is less racially diverse than countries such as the US, where a wealth of
minority groups increase surname diversity(多样性). It also has to do with language; you can’t just add a random
stroke(音节)to a Chinese character and create a new surname.
But there’s also another factor at play: technology. With China roaring into the digital age, nearly everything
has moved online—from making appointments to buying train tickets.
The main problem is that not all Chinese characters have been coded into computer systems. That meant a
world of trouble if you happened to have a rare character in your name. As of 2017, up to 60 million Chinese
citizens faced this problem, according to Xinhua.
People with rare characters in their names, which aren’t compatible(兼容的) with existing computer systems,
can get left behind— pushing many to change their names for the sake of convenience, even if it means abandoning
centuries of heritage and languages.
To try to address this, experts have increased the database from 32,000 characters to 70,000 characters,
according to the government. They’re still working to expand it to include more than 90,000 characters, said Chen
Jiawei, an associate professor at Beijing Normal University.
28.What can be learned from the comparison according to Paragraph 1?
A. There are fewer common surnames in China.
B. Chinese people like sharing the same surname.
C. The United States owns the most surnames in the world.
D. 6.3 million surnames in China have been shared until now.
29.Which one describes surname diversity properly?
A. New Chinese surnames are easy to create.
B. Surname diversity totally depends on technology.
C. Minority groups can increase surname diversity.
D. Surnames in computer systems are regularly changed.
30.What may happen to people with rare characters in their names?
A. They will lose their heritage. B. They have to change their names.C. They should expand the database. D. They may upgrade computer systems.
31.Why have experts increased the character database?
A. To save heritage and languages. B. To keep Chinese traditional culture.
C. To give people more choices when naming. D. To let us know more Chinese characters.

(2021·全国高三模拟)The ruins of a Maya city have been discovered in Guatemala with the help of the remote
sensing technique LiDAR. This lost city envelops sites like Tikal, Holmul, and Witzna, but shows that these famous
areas are a small part of this lost urban network.
Hidden under the jungles of the Maya Biosphere Reserve site, more than 60,000 human-made features —
homes, canals, highways, and more — have been identified in aerial(从飞机上的)images collected by some
international researchers headed by the PAGUNAM Foundation, a Maya cultural and natural heritage organization.
Those have experts rethinking the outlines and complexity of the Maya Empire.
These ancient peoples obviously created these imaginative cultures based on their known relics (遗迹), but the
new research has suggested that the size of this lost society is far beyond what experts imagined. The findings will
be explored in a one-hour documentary called “Lost Treasures of the Maya Snake Kings”, to be broadcast on the
National Geographic Channel.
This breakthrough was possible thanks to LiDAR sensors, which can survey lands in 3D by bouncing pulses
off the ground from unmanned air vehicles and others. LiDAR is exceptionally useful for detecting
archeological(考古的)sites, as it gets through jungles and other features that hold up exploration on the ground. The
technique has made many discoveries become a reality in recent years. For instance, major finds at Angkor,
Cambodia and Caracol, Belize can explain what it did. The final goal is to survey Guatemala’s lowlands with it.
“There are entire cities we didn’t know about now showing up in the survey data,” Francisco Estrada-Belli,
one of the lead archeologists on the project, said in Nat Geo’s coming documentary. “There are 20,000 square
kilometres more to be explored and there are going to be hundreds of cities about the mysterious people who built
this urban network there that we don’t know about, and we will push back the frontiers with the technology,” he
added.
32.What does the underlined word “Those”in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Jungles. B. Human-made features.
C. Researchers. D. Aerial images.
33.What does the author want to convey in paragraph 4?A. The working principle of LiDAR sensors. B. The process of researching Maya civilization.
C. Great importance of Guatemalans lowlands. D. LiDAR’s contribution to discovering the relics.
34.Which words can best describe the lost Maya city?
A. Small and hidden. B. Famous and high-tech.
C. Vast and complex. D. Fully-explored and imaginative.
35. What will the archeologists do next?
A. Continue to explore the unknown. B. Upgrade the LiDAR technology.
C. Study the documentary carefully. D. Build a massive urban network,

(2021·浙江高一月考)Chinese is one of the two world languages with over a billion speakers. While the
Internet has referred to English as the most used language, Chinese still holds the top position as the most used
mother tongue. 36 Just think of how many more people you'd be able to talk to after learning some Chinese!
There are five traditional forms of Chinese calligraphy. These are considered classical arts and representatives
of Chinese art styles. 3 7 It first appeared during the Zhou Dynasty and is still popular among calligraphy
artists today, 3 8 This makes it quite difficult for non — native speakers to tell words from sound
combinations(组合).When you add in the tones, it adds up to make Chinese one of the most difficult languages to
listen to and understand.
Various factors contributed to making Chinese one of the hardest languages to learn for foreigners. 3 9
Usually, you must learn 3,000 characters in order to be considered fluent enough to read the morning newspaper.
However, the language consists of tens of thousands of characters that make fluency a difficult task.
When you're walking around China, you might be surprised at the amount of words you're able to pick up
quickly. Thanks to an increase in exposure to Western culture, Chinese has many loanwords, or words borrowed
from English, in use today.
The origin of Chinese comes from the discovery of the famous Oracle Bones and what is believed to be the
earliest symbols of Chinese. These bones were first used in the Shang Dynasty. With such a rich history, Chinese
has obviously experienced many changes and influences due to wars and cultural shifts (变迁). 4 0

(2021·山东日照市高三二模)Joan excitedly packed her bags for her upcoming trip with her family. They
were driving from New York to Virginia to go on a brief visit to their distant relatives. She was bursting with
impatience to play with her cousins and chat away with her aunt and uncle.
After all of the suitcases had been loaded into the car, Tonny, Joan’s father, looked to Joan and her mother,
Flora. “Is everyone ready for our road trip?” They both smiled and nodded.
It was going to be quite a long journey, and within a couple of hours Joan had already begun to feel tired.
She began to nod off when she noticed the car veering off the road, sharply to the left.
Tonny managed an emergency stop, got out and walked around the car. He scratched his head, looking
confused. Then, he gave a great sigh. “We have a flat tire(轮胎), ”he said to Flora.
“Use the spare tire in the trunk. Then we can replace it when we reach Virginia, ”she suggested. Tonny
looked down at his feet sheepishly. “I…haven’t had the spare tire replaced since the last time we had a flat.”Flora
seemed upset, but tried to remain positive. “Maybe we can call a service,” she suggested. But a quick glance at
their cellphones told them that there was no signal in the area. Joan looked at her mother in the front seat, and her
father still staring blankly at the flat tire outside. Both of them looked concerned.
Joan began to get worried. No other cars had passed by in a while and it seemed like they were far away
from a town center. She looked out the window, wondering if they would have to sleep in the car or if there was any
way they could possibly find someone to help them. Would they ever make their way to Virginia?Her relatives
would surely be worried about them.
