考点20阅读之新闻报道（解析版）【命题趋势】新闻报道在2020年高考中出现了两次，过去的高考中新闻报道也零星出现过几次。不仅在阅读中，写作，阅读七选五或者语法填空都有可能涉及到。所以新闻报道类题材还是需要复习的。以下是新闻报道真题和

模拟试题，学生可以集中练习。1.【2020年全国卷Ⅲ】When"RiseofthePlanetoftheApes"wasfirstshowntothepubliclastmonth,agroupofexcitedan

报道了电影―猩球崛起‖上个月首次与公众见面。动物爱好者聚集在好莱坞前，感谢电影制作者，在电影拍摄时，没有使用真的类人猿。现在的动物拍摄使用的是数字化人猿的创造技术，而一些电影的拍摄却存在着虐地动物的现象，这让一个非盈利的组织密切关注此事。但有些拍摄也是不能够被监测到的。【24题详

解】细节理解题。根据第一段―Instead,oneactivist,dressedinafull-bodymonkeysuit,hadarrivedwithasignpraisingthefilmmakers:―Thanksfornotusingr

ealapes‖可知，相反，一名身穿全套猴服的活动人士来到现场，手里拿着一块牌子，称赞电影制作人:―感谢你们不用真正的猿猴。所以动物保护者聚集在好莱坞大道是为了向电影制作者表示感谢。故选D项。【25题详解】主旨大意题。根据第二段―Thecreativeteambehind

"Apes"usedmotion-capture(动作捕捉)technologytocreatedigitalizedanimals,spendingtensofmillionsofdollarsontechnologythatIrecordsanactor’sperform

anceandlaterprocessesitwithcomputergraphicstocreateafinalimage(图像).‖可知，―人猿‖背后的创作团队利用动作捕捉技术创造数字化的动物，在记录演员表演的技术上，花费数千万美元，然后用电脑图

形处理，以产生最终的影像。由此可知，第二段主要是关于数字化人猿的创造。故选B项。【26题详解】词句猜测题。根据第三段划线前的句子―Onenonprofitorganization,whichmonitorsthetreatmentoranimalsinfilmedentertainme

nt‖（一个非营利组织，监控动物在电影娱乐中的待遇）以及下文Already,anumberoffilms,including"WaterforElephants,""TheHangoverPartⅡ"and"Zookeeper,"havedrawntheangerofactiv

istswhosaythecreaturesactinginthemhaven’tbeentreatedproperly.（许多电影,包括―大象的眼泪‖,―宿醉Ⅱ‖和―管理员‖,引起了动物保护人士的愤怒，他们说影片中的动物没有遭到很好的对待。）由此可知，其中一家监控动物待遇

的非营利组织，今年正密切关注着2000多部影片。由此判断出，划线词的意思是―密切关注‖。故选D项。【27题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段Insomecases,it’snotsomuchthetreatmentoftheanimalsonsetinthe

studiothathasactivistsworried;it’stheoff-settrainingandlivingconditionsthatareraisingconcerns.Andtherearequestio

nsaboutthefilmsmadeoutsidetheStates,whichsometimesarenotmonitoredascloselyasproductionsfilmedintheSates.‖（在某些情况下，让活动人士担心

的并不是电影棚里对动物的待遇;让人担忧的是训练和生活条件。还有一些关于在美国以外拍摄的电影的问题，这些电影有时不像在美国拍摄的电影那样受到严密的监控。）可知，在某些情况下，让活动人士担心的并不是工作室里动物的待遇;令人担忧的是训练和生活条件。由此判断出动物演员可能受

到虐待。故选A项。2.【2020年全国卷Ⅲ】Withtheyoungunabletoaffordtoleavehomeandtheoldatriskofisolation(孤独),morefamiliesarec

新闻报道。短文报道了在英国，由于年轻人负担不起离家的费用，而老年人又面临着被孤立的风险，越来越多的家庭选择住在一起，出现了多世同堂的现象。【28题详解】细节理解题。根据第三段―butRitaWhiteheadhasherownkitchen,bathroom,bedroomandl

ivingroomonthegroundfloor.‖可知，但Rita在一楼有自己的厨房、浴室、卧室和客厅。由此可知，Rita在布里斯托尔的维多利亚式住宅中使用一楼。故选B项。【29题详解】推理判断题。根据第五段―AndwhatdoesNickthink?―Frommystandpoin

t,itallseemstoworkverywell.WouldIrecommendit?Yes,IthinkIwould.‖可知，尼克是怎么想的?―从我的角度来看，一切都很顺利。我推荐它吗?是的，我想我会推荐在一起居住的。‖由此判断出，尼克对和和

岳母合住房子的态度是积极的。故选A项。【30题详解】细节理解题。根据第六段―Officialreportssuggestthatthenumberofhouseholdswiththreegenerations

livingtogetherhadrisenfrom325,000in2002to419,000in2013.‖官方报告显示，三代同堂的家庭数量从2002年的32.5万户增加到2013年的41.9万户。根据第七

段―Itissaidthatabout20%of25-34-year-oldslivewiththeirparents,comparedwith16%in1991.ThetotalnumberofallmultigenerationalhouseholdsinBritainisthou

ghttobeabout1.8million.‖可知，据说，25-34岁的年轻人中有20%和父母住在一起，而1991年这一比例为16%。据估计，英国多代同堂的家庭总数约为180万。由此可知，作者关于多世同堂家庭的论述基于发布

的统计数据。故选C项。【31题详解】主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其根据第一段―Withtheyoungunabletoaffordtoleavehomeandtheoldatriskofisolation(孤独),morefamiliesarechoosingtolivetogether.

‖可知，由于年轻人负担不起离家的费用，而老年人又面临着被孤立的风险，越来越多的家庭选择住在一起。所以短文主要是关于英国生活方式的一种上升趋势。故选D项。1.【吉林省长春市东北师范大学附中2019-20

WearehopefulthathewillbringbackgeneticvariationimportantforthefutureofthePrzewalski'shorsepopulation.‖（―我们希望他能带回对普氏野马种群的未来至关重要的基因变异。‖）‖可推知，该动物园把Kurt

的出生看作一个里程碑，是因为它可能有助于恢复基因变异。故选D。10．推理判断题。根据文章第六段―Althoughonly2monthsoldKurt'sbirthwasmadepossiblein1980whencellsweretakenfroma5-year

28．细节理解题。根据第一段中的―MorethanathirdofsmalltownsinGeorgialostpopulationinthelastyearalone,highlightingthechallengesofrevivingru

ralareas.‖可知，仅去年一年，乔治亚州就有超过三分之一的小城镇人口流失，突出了振兴农村地区的挑战。由此可知，小城镇出现了人口流失现象，即它们的人口减少了。故选B项。29．推理判断题。根据第四段―Thetrendofpeop

lemovingfromruraltourbanareasishardlyanewone—it’sbeengoingonworldwideformorethanacentury.Butcontinuedpopulationloss

eshaveraisedquestionsaboutwhetherruralareascandoanythingtoreversethetide.‖可知，人口从农村转移到城市地区的趋势在世界范围内已经持续了一个多世纪，这并不是一个新的趋势。但持续的人口流失引发了人们的疑问：农村地区能否采取任何措施

扭转这一趋势。由此可知，这一趋势指的是―农村人口转移到城市‖这一现象，reversethetide(扭转这一趋势)意味着在农村人口流失现象的前提下，人们采取措施阻止农村人口流失，去吸引在大城市的人回到农村/小

城镇，即人口从城市转移到农村，B项―Smalltownsdrawpeoplefromcities(小城镇吸引城市的人)‖正确。故选B项。30．推理判断题。根据第五段中的―Ruralresidentscanfaceanumberofchallen

gesincludingaccesstogoodjobs,transportationandhealthcare.(农村居民可能面临许多挑战，包括获得好工作、交通和医疗保健)‖和倒数第二段――Theold

ergenerationisdying,theyoungergenerationismovingaway,andbecausethereareperceivedtobefewerbusinessopportunities,financialopportunities,etc.It’svery

challengingtogetinboundpopulation.‖Bridgessaid.(―老一辈人正在死去，年轻一代正在离开，而且因为人们认为商业机会、金融机会等越来越少，所以吸引外来人口非常具有挑战性。‖Bridges说)‖可知，Bridges的话佐证了农村人口流失和难以吸引外来人口去农

村的原因。故选D项。31．推理判断题。根据最后一段―Demographers(人口学家)expecttheshiftfromruraltourbantocontinue.ButtherearesomebrightspotsinruralAmericastil

题，和一些餐馆的浪费现象，一种新的项目HNI提出了新的解决方法，把饥饿人群和食物联系起来。28．细节理解题。根据第一段的最后一句话―HNIhadasolution—connectivity.，‖可知，H

NI提出了解决办法—―connectivity‖，即把饥饿人群和餐馆或者提供食物的地方结合起来。故选A。29．词义猜测题。根据第二段划线词前的描述―HNIstartedfundraisinganddevelopingpartnerships.Thenthe

ymakeplanswithorganizationsandcharitiestohelplocatepeoplewhosufferfromfoodinsecurity.AndtheyreachedouttotechnicalexpertsatSalesforcewho

developedaneasy-to-usetext-drivenplatformusingachatbox.（HNI开始筹集资金并发展伙伴关系。然后他们与组织和慈善机构一起制定计划，帮助寻找那些遭受食品不安全之苦的人。

他们联系了Salesforce的技术专家，后者利用聊天框开发了一个易于使用的文本驱动平台。）‖可知，HNI需要有资金的支持，有合作伙伴，知道如何定位人群，如何利用平台收发信息等，所以此处的―elements‖指代前

文的―Fund,partnership,locatinghungrypeople,andaneasy-to-usetext-drivenplatform.（资金，合作人，定位饥饿的人，以及一个易于使用的文本驱动平台。）故选D。30

．推理判断题。根据MichelleDiBattiste所说的―Iftherewerelesshungrypeopleintheworld,thecrimeratewouldbereduced,therewouldbefew

erhomelesspeople,andthecostofhealthcarewouldcutdown（如果世界上挨饿的人少一些，犯罪率就会降低，无家可归的人就会少一些，医疗费用就会降低）‖可知，这个计划将使很多饥饿的人满足基本需求，这样一来就会降低犯罪率，同时

减少医疗保健费用。显然这个计划对个人和社会都有好处。故选C。31．主旨大意题。阅读文章，并根据第一段―ThankstoaprogramcalledHunger：NotImpossible(HNI),hun

grypeoplecouldhaveaccesstofresh,healthyfoodintheirneighborhoodbytextingonesimpleword:Hungry.Ononehand.peopleinchargeoftheprogramlea

rnthateachyear42millionAmericansgohungryincluding15.9millionchildren.Ontheotherhand,grocerystores,restaurants,andfoodprovidersthrowout60milliont

onsofunusedfood.HNIhadasolution—connectivity.多亏了一个名为―饥饿:并非不可能‖(Hunger:NotImpossible,HNI)的项目，饥饿的人们可以通过发短信一个简单的词:饥饿，就能在他们的社区获得新鲜、健康的食物。一方面。负责

这个项目的人了解到，每年有4200万美国人挨饿，其中包括159万名儿童。另一方面，杂货店、餐馆和食品供应商会扔掉6000万吨未吃的食物。HNI有一个解决方案——把他们联系起来。)‖可知，短文的最佳标题为―一个项目将饥饿的人们与食物联系起来‖。故选A。7
