分40分钟阅读提速练阅读提速练(一)第一节【解题导语】本文主要推荐了几本在圣诞节期间值得阅读的书。1.A解析:细节理解题。根据第一本书下的“Thisheavy,welltimedpublication...fromhisfirsta
lbum,BobDylan,throughTempest.”可知,BobDylan在文学方面的造诣很高。2.B解析:推理判断题。根据第二本书下的“Momand/orDad...undertheChristmastree(evenifitisabook).”可推知,本文所介绍的书都是为即将到来的圣诞
节而推荐的。3.D解析:细节理解题。根据第三本书下的“andDelman’sarrestingpicturescapture(捕捉)hermuscularpowerandelegance”和第四本书及其下的“Andforfansofmoretraditionalc
offee-table-sizebooks...Picture-PerfectJourneysAroundtheGlobe($40).”可知,摄影爱好者会对最后介绍的两本书感兴趣,还会对Wild,BeautifulPlaces:Picture-Perfe
ctJourneysAroundtheGlobe感兴趣,买这三本书他要花$39.95+$19.95+$40=$99.9。4.B解析:细节理解题。根据第二本书下的“AnelegantfanzinecelebratingallthingsaboutTaylorSwi
ft,especiallythepopstar’scountlessfans.”可知,流行音乐歌手的粉丝们会买TylerConroy写的书。【解题导语】本文主要讲述了悦己者高朋满座,光环环绕,总是和颜悦色,宽以待人,不会贬低别人,更容易有好运气。作者希望每个人
都能够悦纳自我,排除内心不安的喧嚣,成就美好人生。5.C解析:主旨大意题。根据文章前三段的首句以及第四段的最后一句可知,文章主要谈论了悦纳自我者更容易有好运。故选C项。6.B解析:代词指代题。第二段画线词所在句Insecuritiesarelik
eopenwoundsandithurtswhenpeoplepoke(捅;戳)atthem.意为“不安全感就像是裸露的伤口,只要人们去触碰就会疼”,由此可知,them指代句子前半部分提到的openwounds。
故选B项。7.D解析:写作意图题。根据第四段可知,作者写这篇文章的意图是呼吁读者悦纳自我。只有真正悦纳自我,才能摒除内心不安的喧嚣,享受展现在我们面前的美好世界。故选D项。【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要介绍了我们平时生活中所见到的按钮可能是不起作用的。8.B解析:
写作意图题。通读整篇文章可知,作者通过举例子介绍了不同地点的虚假按钮,其目的是探求这些虚假按钮的功能。故选B。A项“描述不同的虚假按钮”,C项“分析按按钮的不同习惯”,D项“解释虚假按钮的弊端”。A、C、D三项在文中均有提及但不是整篇
文章的目的,故排除。9.D解析:细节理解题。根据第三段第一句中的“makingsurethatallliftsstayedopenlongenoughsothatpeoplewithdisabilitiescouldentersafely”可知,
美国电梯里的“关闭”按钮是为了确保残疾人能安全地通过。故选D。10.A解析:推理判断题。根据第四段中的“fakebuttonscanactuallymakeyoufeelbetterbyofferingyouasenseofcontrol”和第六段中的“Forexample,pe
destriancrosswalkbuttonsdon’tliveuptotheirnameseither.”可知,人行横道按钮也没有实现其功能,但可以让人们感觉好一点,故选A。11.C解析:标题归纳题。通读全文内容可知,本文主要讲述了有些按钮只是形式上的,而不具备真正的实际功能。故C项
“按钮可能不起作用”最符合文章主旨。故选C。12-15.AADC第二节16-20.CFAGB
