高中英语新高考-阅读理解:指导与解读(实战篇)
1、不能为了刷题而阅读,真正为了提高自己的阅读效率去阅读。
2、好的阅读题,一定是每个题干都涉及到段落和文章的重点。
3、一个很简单略带粗暴的衡量阅读效果的标准就是,不看选项而看到题干就能作出答
案。
4、高效阅读,应该是速度、质量、情感的统一。即:在很短的时间内,把握重点,并
能和作者的情感形成共鸣。
5、必须关注阅读策略,但最重要的是有足够多的实践。
6、阅读策略,一定要关注新课标中关于语篇的核心描述,如下:
1)语篇中的显性衔接和连贯手段,如:通过使用代词、连接词、省略句、
替代等手段来实现的指代、连接、省略、替代等衔接关系;
2)语篇中的隐性衔接和连贯手段,比如,在不使用but和however等连接
性词语的情况下实现转折、对比等语义逻辑关系
3)语篇成分(如:句子、句群、段落)之间的语义关系,如次序关系、因
果关系、概括与例证关系。
4)比喻、拟人、强调、反讽等修辞手段在语篇中的表意功能及常见用法;
5)段首句、主题句、过渡句的位置与行文特征;
6)语篇中信息组织方式,如:语篇中新旧信息的布局以及承接关系;
7)语境在语篇理解和语篇产出过程中的作用;语境与语篇结构、语篇内容
的关系,如,通过语境预测语篇内容,通过语篇的内容推测语篇发生的语境。B
1 I used to think the whole purpose of life was pursuing
happiness.Everyone said the path to happiness was success, so
I searched for that idealjob, that perfect boyfriend, that
beautiful apartment. But instead of ever feeling fulfilled, Ifelt
anxious and adrift. Eventually, I decided to go tograduate
school for positive psychology to learn what truly makes
people happy.
2 And what ’ s the difference between being happy and
having meaning inlife? Many psychologists define happiness as
a state of comfort and ease,feeling good in the moment.
Meaning, though, is deeper. The renownedpsychologist Martin
Seligman says meaning comes from belonging to and
servingsomething beyond yourself and from developing the
best within you. Our cultureis obsessed (痴迷于) withhappiness,
but I came to see that seeking meaning is the more fulfilling
path.
3 There are four pillars (支柱) of a meaningful life.
4 The first pillar is belonging. Belonging comes from being
in relationshipswhere you ’ re valued for who you are
intrinsically and where you value others aswell. For many
people, belonging is the most essential source of meaning.5 For others, the key to meaning is the second pillar:
purpose.Finding your purpose is not the same thing as finding
that job that makes youhappy. A hospital custodian told me her
purpose is healing sick people. Manyparents tell me, “ My
purpose is raising my children.” The key to purpose isusing
your strengths to serve others. Without something worthwhile
to do,people flounder.
6 The third pillar of meaning is also about stepping beyond
yourself,but in a completely different way: transcendence (超然).
Transcendent experiencescan change you. Transcendent states
are those rare moments when you’re liftedabove the hustle
and bustle of daily life, your sense of self fades away, andyou
feel connected to a higher reality. For me, I’m a writer, and it
happensthrough writing. Sometimes I get so in the zone that I
lose all sense of timeand place.
7 The fourth pillar is storytelling, the story you tell yourself
aboutyourself. Creating a narrative from the events of your life
brings clarity. Ithelps you understand how you became you. But
we don’t always realize that we’rethe authors of our stories
and can change the way we’re telling them. Your lifeisn’t just
a list of events. You can edit, interpret and retell your
story,even as you’re constrained by the facts.8 That’s the power ofmeaning. Happiness comes and goes.
But when life is really good and when thingsare really bad,
having meaning gives you something to hold on to.
58. What can we infer from the first twoparagraphs?
A. Life can be fulfilled by landing ideal jobs.
B. Life dilemma is easy for us to get out of.
C. Happiness is the core values in our culture.
D. Happiness is what most people pursue.
59. From the four pillars of a meaningfullife, we can know that
________.
A. nothing is as essential a source of meaning as belonging
B. purpose is less about what you want than what you give
C. transcendent fades easily and rarely makes us cheerful
D. the way of telling stories guarantees a meaningful life
60. The passage aims to tell us that________.
A. meaning is more important than happiness
B. seeking meaning does more good than bad
C. chasing happiness can makepeople unhappy
D. meaning has deeper psychological significance
【语篇解读】主题:人与自我——追求生活的意义,而不仅仅是追求快乐;词数:
444W;体裁:说明文;难度:★★★
大意:本文说明了追求快乐对于生活的重要性,但作者认为更重要的
是找寻生活本身的价值和意义。
结构:本文语篇结构类型为:概括——具体类,分析如下:
结构划分 具体信息
由于人人都说成功是通往快乐的途径,作者过去也曾认为生活的意义就在于追
Para 1
求快乐——找到理想工作的快乐,完美的另一半的快乐,以及奢华的公寓的快
乐。但是作者却从来未感到满足,反而更焦虑和浮躁。
心理学家认为快乐就是一种无忧无虑的、感到幸福的状态和时光,但是生活的
Para 2
意义则更加意味深远。因此作者改变了之前的看法,意识到追求生活的意义才
是更有满足感的。
有意义的生活的第一个支柱:归属感。
Para 3-7
有意义的生活的第二个支柱:目的性。
有意义的生活的第三个支柱:超越自我限制,进入超然的状态。
有意义的生活的第四个支柱:讲故事。
总结,说明意义才是生活的主流,给予你生活中值得坚持的部分,而快乐是稍
Para 8
纵即逝的。
【答案详解】
1. D 推理判断题
【定位句】Our culture is obsessed with happiness.
【翻译】我们的文化群体痴迷于追求快乐。
【解析】定位句的 culture 含义为“文化(某群体或组织的一致看法和
态度)”,这与选项 D“快乐是大多数人所追求的”完全吻合。由此可
知选项 D 符合文意。
【干扰项排除】A 项“得到理想的工作,生活便有了意义”可以从文
中 第 一 段 “ ..., so I searched for that ideal job, that perfect
boyfriend, thatbeautiful apartment. But insteadof ever feelingfulfilled, I felt anxious and adrift.”得知作者在寻找理想的工作时并
未感到满足,反而是更加焦虑和浮躁。B 项“生活的困境难以摆脱”
和文意不符,因为第一、二段始终围绕 happiness 和 meaning 来展
开,并未提及 dilemma。C 项“快乐是我们文化中的核心价值观”是
迷惑性较强的一项,但是“core values”与“be obsessed with”
存在感情色彩上的巨大差别。前者表示“核心观念、中流砥柱”,往
往是为大部分人所接受的,最重要的,有正确导向的观念和看法,而
obsessed 则是指“受……困扰,对……着迷”,强调无法离开某事
物,不断去思考某事物,甚至感到心神不宁,感情色彩主要是贬义的。
从这一点上来看,C 项明显错误。故排除。
2. B 细节理解题
【定位句】Finding your purpose is not the same thing as finding
that job thatmakes you happy... The key to purpose is using
your strengths to serve others.
【翻译】找到你的目标和找到让你感到快乐的工作不是一回事……找
到目标的关键在于尽己所能帮助他人。
【解析】B 项“目的性更多是关于你所给予的,而不是你所渴望得到
的”准确地表达了定位句的意思。由此可知选项 B 符合文意
【干扰项排除】A 项“作为生活意义的来源,没有什么比归属感更重
要”说法绝对化,扩大了范围。原文语句“For many people,
belongingis the most essential source of meaning.”中 for many
people 是很明显的限定语。C 项“超然稍纵即逝,很少让我们感到快乐”表述错误,原文中语句“Transcendent experiencescan change
you. Transcendent states are those rare moments when you’re
liftedabove the hustle and bustle of daily life, your sense of self
fades away, andyou feel connected to a higher reality.”重点在
于说明超然是人们远离世俗,超越自我限制,类似于庄子《逍遥游》
中表达的一种追求绝对自由的人生观:忘却物我的界限,达到无己、无功、无名的境
界。而这和选项 C 表述明显矛盾。D 项“讲故事为有意义的生活提供
了保障”文中未提及。故排除。
3.A 主旨大意题
【解析】本题较为简单,根据以上分析不难得出本文主旨为“追求生
活的意义远比追求快乐更重要”。
【技巧】纵观全文,作者始终没有离开对 meaning 和 happiness 的
讨论,也就是说这两个词是文中的关键词,起到总结全文的作用。选
项 BCD 均为单方面讨论,因此易排除。
C
1 In 2015 a paperpublished in a science magazine reported
on the personality types of peopleliving in various London
districts. Extroverts (外向的人), the researchers who wrote it had
discovered, favored Richmond.Those who were most open to
experience gathered in Hackney. People in Barnetscored lower
than average on emotional stability.2 What this study did not address was whether someone’s
home rangereflects their personality traits or imposes them. In
other words, is what isgoing on “nature” or “nurture” (培
育 ) ? However, in a piece of research just published, Dr.
Holtmann ofOtago University, in New Zealand, and his
colleagues have filledthat gap—atleast, they have filled it for
dunnocks.
3 The dunnock is a European bird. It has, though, been
introducedto New Zealand and its population has boomed
there. It is a well-studiedspecies, and, inparticular, some being
measurably bolder ( 更 大 胆 的 ) and more tolerant of
potentialthreats, such as nearby human beings, than others.
The team’s research area wasthe Botanic Garden in Dunedin.
This is open to the public, but some areas aremore frequented
by visitors than others. Dunnocks have small territories, soit
was possible to measure the amount of human disturbance in a
giventerritory with reasonable precision. And, by wrapping
each of the dunnocks inthe garden with colour-coded bands it
was possible to identify individuals bysight. Altogether, the
researchers looked at 99 of them.
4 They worked out abird’s level of threat tolerance by the
simple method of walking towards it,and then measuring howclose one could get before the bird flew away. They didthis
several times for each bird every breeding season, and
repeated theprocess over the course of three seasons.
5 A particular bird’s flight distance (ie, how closely it could
beapproached before it departed) was, they found, consistent
within a breedingseason. From season to season most birds got
a little bolder—probably as theylearnt more about the world
and what they could safely get away with. But thisincrease in
boldness with age was small compared with the different
startingpoints of bold and shy birds when they first arrived in a
territory. It didnot, therefore, much affect the fact that, on
average, birds’ flight distanceswere inversely correlated (负相
关) with the level of human disturbance in their territories. This
wasa consequence of disturbed territories being settled by
bold birds, andundisturbed territories by shy ones.
6 In the case of dunnocks, then, nature wins over nurture.
Dr.Holtmann was able to show that personalities match
circumstances, rather thanbeing created by them. Dunnocks
can recognize which places suit them best, andchoose to settle
in them shortly after they are fully fledged (羽翼丰满). Most
likely, that ishappening in London districts, too.61. What does the underlined words “ that gap ” in the
secondparagraph refer to?
A. What the paper publishedin 2015 failed to handle.
B. Whyextroverts favour certain areas in London district.
C. How Dr.Holtmann involved dunnocks in his study.
D. What theformer and latter study have in common.
62. From Paragraph3, we can know that dunnocks________.
A. are native to NewZealand B. have distinct
personalities
C. are bolderthan human beings D. canbe easily
identified by its color
63. What conclusion did Dr. Holtmann draw from his study?
A. It’snurture rather than nature that matters in the case of
dunnocks’ behaviour.
B. Birds ’ flight distances were in proportion to human
disturbance in their territories.
C. Dunnockschoose their habitats wisely in the first place
rather than adapt to them.
D. Bold birdsand shy birds alike settle in undisturbed
territories in the botanicgarden.
64. What is the author’spurpose in writing the passage?
A. To argue thatcircumstances cultivate certain personalities.B. To entertain readerswith some funny facts about
dunnocks.
C. To present the findingof a scientific research about
dunnocks.
D. To confirm theassumption that personalities match
circumstances.
【语篇解读】
主题:鸟类会根据自己的性格特点选择居所;词数:487W;体裁:
说明文;难度:★★★★
大意:本文是一篇科普说明文,说明一种欧洲鸟类会根据自己的性格
特点选择居住在哪里。
结构:本文语篇结构类型为:现象——分析类,分析如下:
结构划分 具体信息
通过一篇对居住在伦敦各个区的人的性格类型的论文研究,说明了性格不同的
Para 1
人,往往聚集地也各不相同。
说明这项研究的局限性:没有对这些人的性格特征的产生原因给出结论,即这
Para 2
种性格差异是“先天的”,还是“后天形成的”。由此,霍德曼博士开展了一
项新的对一种欧洲鸟类的研究,填补了先前研究的缺口。
Para 3-5 Dunnock 是一种被引入新西兰的欧洲鸟类,具有独特的性格,例如有些鸟比
其他的更大胆。博士的团队通过一种简单的人为干扰的方法,每次让尽量同一
个人走向这种鸟类,然后测量他们在鸟飞走之前的距离,最终发现在繁殖季节
中,这种距离是恒定的。这种鸟类随着年龄的增长的胆量和本身就胆小的鸟类
的起始点相比,胆量增长很小。也就是说,它们的胆量并不受人的干扰程度的
影响,而是由先天性格决定的。
Para 6 因此对于 dunnock 这种鸟类来说,它们的性格差异是先天的,而不是后天形
成的。所以霍德曼博士证明了个性与环境相匹配,而不是由环境创造。
【答案详解】
1. A 细节理解题【 定 位 句 】 What this study did not address was whether
someone ’ s home rangereflects their personality traits or
imposes them. In other words, is what isgoing on “nature” or
“nurture” ?
【翻译】这项研究没有解决的问题是,一个人的家庭范围究竟是反映
还是强加给了他们的个性特征,换句话说,"天性"或"后天"是怎么回
事?
【解析】gap 是指“缺口,空白”,与选项 A“这篇发表在 2015 年
的论文没能解决的问题”相吻合。再根据该段第一句的意思,可知选
项 A 符合文意。
2. B 细节理解题
【 定 位 句 】 It is a well-studied species, and, in particular,
somebeingmeasurably bolder and more tolerant of potential
threats, such as nearby humanbeings, than others.
【翻译】它是一个经过深入研究的物种,特别是,个别个体比其他个
体更大胆,更耐受潜在的威胁,比如附近的人类。
【解析】根据定位句可以了解到 dunnock 有独特的性格特征,由此
可知选项 B 符合文意。
【干扰项排除】A 项“原产于新西兰”错误,原文语句“It has, though,
been introduced to New Zealand and its populationhas
boomed there.”说明其是被引入新西兰,而非原产。C 项“比人类大胆”明显不符合常理。D 项“便于从颜色识别”文中未提及,故排
除。
3. C 细节理解题
【定位句】This was a consequence of disturbed territoriesbeing
settled by bold birds, and undisturbed territories by shy ones.
【翻译】这是由于大胆的鸟定居在受干扰的地区,而胆小的鸟则选择
了不受干扰的地区安家。
【解析】通过第五段的叙述可以得知,在繁殖季节中, 这种鸟类的飞行
距离(即它离开之前能够接近的距离)是恒定的,且它们飞走的平均距
离与在其区域内的人为干扰程度成反比。再通过最后一句的叙述,易
知选项 C 符合文意。
4. D 主旨大意题
【解析】纵观全文,作者通过霍德曼博士的研究是为了证明个性与环
境相匹配,从最后一段的最后一句也可以得知,作者认为这种情况也
可能发生在伦敦市区。也就是说,鸟类的这种性格差异可能也适用于
人类,完善了 2015 年研究的结果。由此可知选项 D 符合文意。
D
1 I’m sitting at homeworking, minding my business, and the
mobile rings. It’s DC Lyle from Wandsworthpolice station. He
says that my name was given to Crimestoppers anonymously
asa potential witness to the ‘ Putney Pusher ’ incident.Remember that madman whopushed a woman into the path of
a bus on Putney Bridge while out for hismorning jog? Well, six
months on and they still haven’t found him—and DC Lylewants
to meet.
2 I say I couldn’tpossibly help as I wasn’t a witness. DC Lyle
says he still needs to meet. Ireaffirm there really was no point, I
could be of no value; I wasn’ t there. DCLyle insists, and in
doing so mentions that he has my email address, and thathe
tried to see me at my office yesterday (I wasn’ t in). What?
Somebody gavethe police my office address, email address and
phone number. Who? Feelinginvaded and annoyed, I tell DC
Lyle he could come at 10 a.m. the next day. Iput the phone
down, and only then the penny dropped.I was a suspect.
3 I must know. Who was theperson who put my name
forward? They obviously know me, but not well enough tocall
me first and let me know they were going to report me to the
police. Orperhaps they do know me well and have it in for me.
That’s for another day.
4 I frantically search forthe video footage of the incident
online. The images are grainy. Squint (眯 眼 看 ) the eyes and
even I can see someresemblance. I look at the Pusher’s jogging
gear. Not premium, I might be OK.He’s got fat calves. Result.Mine are sculpted (my best feature). The Pusher’sgot obvious
moobs. Oh dear. I carry some permanent holiday weight, I
admit it.All it would take is a bored jury and a half-decent
prosecution barrister, andnone of this would be beyond
reasonable doubt.
5 I need evidence provingmy innocence, so I fire up the iCal
to see what my movements were on 5 May.There is nothing in
the diary. This is not going well.
6 After a fitful night Iwake early. 9:45 a.m. arrives. The door
buzzer goes. It’s DC Lyle and hissidekick. Of course they’re
early, sneaky bastards. Look relaxed, Joel. Keepyourself
together. DC Lyle and DC Sidekick show me their badges. I
show themhow extremely nice and friendly I am. Once installed
on my sofa (I didn’t offertea) they hit me with it—I am indeed
a suspect.
7“Someone put you forwardas the person that did this, and
we’re here to investigate whether you did.Where were you on
the morning of 5 May between the hours of 7:30 and 8:00a.m.?”
8 I have nothing. I livealone, work from home most days, no
diary events, no witnesses as to mywhereabouts. Sweats.
“Wait,”I say.“Almost every morning of the working week Igo
to Pret A Manger to have a coffee at or about the time ofincident.” But didI that day? Even if I did, what if it was a day
when they gave me a coffee ‘onthe house’ as they often did,
me being a regular ’n’ all. There might not becredit card
records. More sweats.
9 I get the computer.American Express login. Search for May
2017 expense calendar( 消 费 明 细 ). Double click. Get in: 5
May2017—Pret A Manger, £1.95.
10 I’m in the clear. DCLyle peers over my shoulder at the
screen. He’s satisfied I’m not the PutneyPusher. The Pret
evidence is helpful, but he also says I ’ m taller than the
realPusher. Skinnier, too. I tell him that’s because I’ve been
jogging a lotrecently.
65. Why did DC Lyle call “me” and insist on a meet?
A. Police thought “I” wasthe Putney Pusher.
B. The womancharged me with the incident.
C. Someone reported me tothe police station.
D. “I”accidentally knew who the suspect was.
66. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 means _________.
A. money was wasted onanswering the phone call
B. moneyshould be paid to get rid of my suspicion
C. something serious wouldfollow for days to come
D. somethingpuzzling wasn’t understood until then67. Thesentence “ I have to clear my name, and reclaim
ownership of my identity.”should be placed at the end of
_________.
A. Para. 2 B.Para. 3 C. Para.
4 D. Para. 6
68. What “I” found of the incident indicates that _________.
A. “I”wouldn’t be suspected without putting on holiday
weight
B. “I” amexactly the man who the police have been hunting
for
C. it is reasonable for DCLyle to arrest “me” to finish his job
D. it isunfavorable for “me” not to have a habit of writing
diaries
69. What can we learn from “my” meeting with DC Lyle?
A. Beingextremely friendly makes me more suspicious.
B. Theexpense calendar provides relief to my suspicion.
C. DC Lyle doesn’t assume Iam the Pusher in advance.
D. Recentjogging is a key to my tall and skinny feature.
70. Whatis the best title for the passage?
A. A false alarm B.The Pusher
at largeC. Myidentity crisis D.
Carelesspolicemen
【语篇解读】
主题:人与社会——“我”摆脱警方嫌疑的故事;词数:645W;体
裁:记叙文;难度:★★★★
大意:这篇文章的背景是发生于 2017 年 5 月 5 日上午 7:40 在英国伦
敦帕特尼的一起案件,一名慢跑者将一名妇女推入一辆迎面而来的公
交车的道路上,所幸的是这名女性并未受到伤害。伦敦警方已经逮捕
了好几个人,但很快被无罪释放,案件一直毫无进展。作者也是其中
被列为嫌疑人的一个人,因此他写了这篇文章,叙述了自己的心理活
动和证明自己无罪的过程。
结构分析如下:
结构划分 具体信息
Para 1-2 电话传来是旺兹沃斯警察局的 Lyle 警员想就“帕特尼推车手”案件(6 个多月
至今未破)和作者见面,而作者并不是目击证人,帮不上忙,但是警方坚持要
求见面。从对话中作者得知 Lyle 警员得知了他的电子邮件地址甚至办公室地
址。很显然是有人透露了作者的个人信息给警方。此刻他意识到,自己被警方
列入嫌疑犯名单了。
本部分主要说明作者在同警员见面之前对警方办案水平的愤怒,以及自己对被
Para 3-5
怀疑的无奈的心理过程。
第 3 段:作者不知道为什么自己的名字会被警方得知,有一丝担心和无奈。
第 4 段:作者搜索了“帕特尼推车手”案件的视频,看到了假期后增肥的自己
仅仅就是和视频中男子身材有点相似就被怀疑了,最后作者吐槽:只需要一个
无聊的陪审团和一个半吊子起诉律师(就能轻松控告一个人),然而这些都是
毫无道理的。
第 5 段:作者需要不在场证明,所以查阅了一些自己 5 月 5 日的行踪,结果日
记里什么都没有。情况有些不妙,引出下文警员和搭档到来的事件。本部分叙述作者和前来见面的探员的交涉,以及自己是如何摆脱嫌疑,证明自
Para 6-10
己清白的。期初尽管作者极力显示自己的友好,排除自己的嫌疑,但是探员始
终怀疑他。探员 Lyle 质问作者案发时在做什么,作者一开始为自己找不到不
在场证据感到紧张,但随后在美国运通记录上找到了案发时他在 Pret a Man
ager 咖啡馆买了一杯咖啡的消费明细,从而成功给出了有力的不在场证据。
探员最后说作者其实比嫌犯高一点也瘦一点,作者用讽刺的语气回应了探员:
那是因为我最近经常慢跑。
【答案详解】
1. A 推理判断题
【定位句 1】He says that my name was given to Crimestoppers
anonymously as apotential witness to the ‘Putney Pusher’
incident.
【翻译】他说,我的名字是匿名给克里米斯托普斯(某机构的名字)
的, 因为他是“帕特尼推车手”事件的潜在目击者。
【定位句 2】“Someone put you forward as the person that did
this, and we’re hereto investigate whether you did. Where were
you on the morning of 5 May betweenthe hours of 7:30 and
8:00 a.m.?”
【翻译】“有人把你提出说你是凶手, 我们是来调查你到底是不是。5
月 5 日早上 7 时 30 分至 8 时,你在哪里?”
【解析】根据定位句可以得知,尽管作者根本不是目击者,也帮不上
什么忙,但是警方提到有人说作者有可能是潜在目击者,还把他的信
息提供给了警方,由此警方给作者打电话坚持要求见面,一定是怀疑
他就是凶手。故选 A。【干扰项排除】B 项“那位女性指控了我”曲解了文意。根据作者的
心理活动可以得知,作者认为是某人故意陷害他而把他的信息提供给
了警方,而不是当事人亲自指控。C 项“有人向警方举报了我”迷惑
性较大,但实际这只能作为一个客观的条件,并不能作为警方坚持和
我见面的主要原因。从常理来看,警方如果要对嫌疑人进行审问,不
会根据某一个人的举报就随便抓人,必定要经过证据分析和调查。因
此,警方是主观上认为作者是嫌疑犯,而并不是客观上有人举报了他,
才会坚持要求见面。故排除。D 项“我意外地知道了嫌犯是谁”在原
文中未提及,只说明了视频中的慢跑男子和作者有些相似之处。故排
除。
2. D 词义猜测题
【解析】从作者一开始对警方办案水平的无奈,到后来得知自己的个
人信息都被警方掌握,作者的心理活动是由无奈变成紧张,同时由第
二段作者猜想到有人可能想要陷害他到挂断电话之后,直到那时作者
才明白,自己不是一开始说的潜在目击者,而是直接变成了嫌疑人。
由此可知选项 D“直到那时谜团才终于解开了”符合文意。the penny
drops 是一个常见的英国习语,表示“恍然大悟,茅塞顿开”,如果
认识这个短语则作答过程更加轻松。
【干扰项排除】A 项和 B 项均谈到了 money,不符合文意,因为文章
自始至终也没有提到打电话浪费钱以及需要交钱才能摆脱嫌疑。C 项
“几天后可能有危险的事要来临”通常是一个人要遭遇不测,遇到麻烦甚至外人报复的一个想法,和警方认为作者是嫌犯相比,这算不上
“危险严重的事”。故排除。
3. B 段落结构题
【定位句】I must know. Who was the person who put my name
forward? Theyobviously know me, but not well enough to call
me first and let me know theywere going to report me to the
police. Or perhaps they do know me well and haveit in for me.
That’s for another day.
【翻译】我必须得知道到底是谁告发我的?他们很显然认识我,但是
跟我不熟,以致没有先电话给我,让我知道他们要把我送进警察局。
或者还有一种可能,他们确实很了解我,并且对我有所隐瞒。那是另
外一天。
【 定 位 句 2】 I frantically search for the video footage ofthe
incident online.
【翻译】我疯狂地在网上搜索该案件的视频片段。
【解析】根据作者的心理活动不难得知,作者被警方怀疑,不知道举
报者到底对他了解多少,但是作者想做的就是要洗清嫌疑,重新证明
自己身份的清白,因此和后文“疯狂搜索事件片段”,以及作者的推
理过程对应。由此可知选项 B 符合文意,即“I have to clear my name,
and reclaim ownership of my identity.’’应该放在作者对举报者
的身份猜测之后,表明作者想要找到不在场证据的心理活动。
4. B 推理判断题【定位句】Once installed on my sofa (I didn’t offer tea) they hit
me with it—Iam indeed a suspect.
【翻译】坐到沙发上之后(我没给他们倒茶),他们开门见山地说了,
我的确就是他们的嫌疑人。
【解析】根据第 4 段可知,作者通过事件录像发现了假期后增胖的自
己和视频里的人的相似点——都有些胖,所以警方一定是收到了别人
对他的举报,以及对比视频发现作者嫌疑很大,同时根据作者最后说
的 “ All it would take is a bored jury and a half-decent
prosecutionbarrister, and none of this would be beyond
reasonable doubt.”可知作者对伦敦警方办案指控罪犯的过程非常
不满,心想原来凭借别人的举报和粗略的比对,警方就怀疑自己是嫌
疑犯,再根据定位句的内容,作者明白了警方打电话坚持要求见面的
原因。由此可知选项 B 符合文意。
【干扰项排除】A 项“我要是假期不增肥就不会被怀疑了”和 D 项“我
不写日记的习惯对我来说很不利”明显和作者心理活动不符。作者当
时并非怪罪于自己和嫌犯有相似点,以及怪罪于自己没写日记证明自
己的不在场,而是对警方拙劣的办案手法感到无奈,并非为自己感到
任何惋惜。C 项“Lyle 探员逮捕我完成他的工作是合情合理的”和最
后一句表达了相反的意思,原句是“这些都毫无道理”。故排除。
5. B 推理判断题【定位句】I get the computer. American Express login. Search
for May 2017 expensecalendar. Double click. Get in: 5 May 2017
—Pret A Manger, £1.95. I am in theclear.
【翻译】我去拿电脑。登录美国运通。搜索 2017 年 5 月 5 日的消费
明细。双击。2017 年 5 月 5 日, Pret a Manger, 1.95 英镑。我是清
白的。
【解析】根据定位句可知是这条消费明细证明了作者的不在场,由此
可知选项 B“这条消费明细消除了对我的怀疑”符合文意。
【干扰项排除】A 项“表现得非常友好使我更受怀疑”文中未提及。
C 项“Lyle 探员没有提前设想我是作案者”和第 7 段探员的问询相矛
盾,很显然 Lyle 是设想好了作者就是嫌犯。D 项“最近慢跑是我保持
又高又瘦的体型的关键”是作者对探员的讽刺:“是因为我最近经常
慢跑,所以才会比真正的嫌犯高一点,瘦一点”。故排除。
6. C
【解析】通过全文分析,可知作者对自己被怀疑为重大案件嫌疑犯,
心理经过的一系列紧张活动,以及怎么证明自己清白的过程,自始至
终是“我的身份”的“历险记”,所以选项 C“我的身份危机”最能
概括全文的内容。
【干扰项排除】A 项“假警告”明显不符合文章内容和口吻,B 项“逍
遥法外的推手”可能是叙述一个在逃的嫌疑人如何避免警方的视线和
调查,至今依然逍遥法外。D 项“粗心的警察”则可能是叙述一个办案糟糕的警察如何搞砸一个或者一系列的案件的幽默小说的标题。均
不符合此文的内容。故排除。
【技巧】在做此类题目时,一篇文章的标题就是其眼睛,起到概括全
文的作用,看到题目往往可以模拟一下作者下面将会如何展开,内容
可能是什么。通过这种方法往往可以迅速找到正确答案,排除错项。
In today’s society of growing lifesatisfaction, a good number of
people’s happiness comes from ideal jobs,perfect partners and
beautiful apartments — — now widely regarded as the key
factors affecting or even determininga person’ s happiness.
However, many become so obsessed with them that they
feelanxious and adrift instead of ever feeling fulfilled. Believe it
or not, a realfulfilling, meaningful life is less about the
happiness you are pursuing than themeaning you are seeking.
Four pillars consist of a meaningful life,and chief among these
is belonging. It comes from being in others’ companywhere
you are valued for who you are and where you value others as
well. Formost people, belonging is the key. Another source of
meaning is purpose.Finding your purpose does not equate to
landing your desirable jobs that makesyou happy. Rather, using
your strengths to serve others matters. This givesyour life apurpose, something worthwhile to hold on to. In addition,
steppingbeyond yourself, in other words, transcendence, also
helps. When you are liftedabove the hustle and bustle of daily
life, your sense of self fades away, andyou feel connected to
higher reality.
Finally, storytelling, in which you tellyourself about yourself,
can make a difference to a meaningful life. In truth,we are the
authors of our stories, who can change the way we write them,
evenif we are constrained by the facts.
All these four factors combined guarantee ameaningful life. In
fact, chasing happiness blindly does more harm than good,by
which life can never be fulfilled. Those who think otherwise,
think again!
