B．It'sawful.C．It'sbusy. D．It'sdeveloped.C [推理判断题。根据尾段第一句以及AnneBeateHovind所说的话“SinceIstartedlivinginacity，I'vesomehowbeenquitedisconnected”可知，在城市里，时间过得最快，生活节奏最快，AnneBeateHovind感觉自己跟不上节奏，由此可推知，AnneBeateHovind认为城市生活是忙碌的，故选C。]B(2020·江苏海安月考)IbeganwritingpoemsfifteenyearsagowhileIwasincollege.OnedayIwasinthelibrary，workingonatermpaper，whenIcameacrossabookofcontemporarypoetry.Idon'trememberthetitleofthebookoranyofthetitlesofthepoemsexceptone：Frankenstein'sDaughter.Thepoemwaswild，almostrude，andnothingliketherhymeandmeterpoetryIhadreadinhighschool.Ihadalwaysthoughtthatpoetrywasflowerywritingaboutsunsetsandwalksonthebeach，but\nthatlibrarybookcontaineddirectandsometimesshockingpoetryaboutdogs，junkedcars，rundownhouses，andTVs.Icheckedthebookout，curioustoreadmore.Soonafterwards，Istartedfillinganotebookwithmyownpoems.AtfirstIwasscared，partlybecausemypoetryteacher，towhomthisbookiswrittenfor，wasaseriousandstrictmanwhocouldseetheerrorsinmypoems.Also，Irealizedtheseriousnessofmydevotion.Igaveupgeographytostudypoetry，whichagoodmanyfriendssaidofferednofuture.IignoredthembecauseIlikedworkingwithwords，usingthemtoreconstructthepast，whichhasalwaysbeenasourceofpoetryforme.WhenIfirststudiedpoetry，Iwassingleminded.Iwoketopoetryandwenttobedwithpoetry.Imemorizedpoems，readEnglishpoetsbecauseIwastoldtheywouldhelpshapemypoems，andreadclassicalChinesepoetrybecauseIwastoldthatitwouldaddclaritytomywork.ButIwasmosttakenbytheSpanishandLatinAmericanpoets，particularlyPabloNeruda.Myfavoritesofhisweretheodes—long，shortlinedpoemscelebratingcommonthingsliketomatoes，socksandscissors.IfeltjoyfulwhenIreadtheseodes，andwhenIbegantowritemyownpoems，Itriedtoremainfaithfultothecommonthingsofmychildhood—dogs，alleys(小巷)，mybaseballmitts(手套)andthefruitofthevalley，especiallytheorange.Iwantedtogivethesethingslife，towritesowellthatmypoemswouldexpresstheirbeauty.Ialsoadmiredourowncountry'spoetry.Isawthatourpoetsoftenwroteaboutplaceswheretheygrewuporplacesthatimpressedthemdeeply.JamesWrightwroteaboutOhioandWestVirginia，PhilipLevineaboutDetroit，GarySnyderabouttheSierraNevadasandaboutJapan.IdecidedtowriteabouttheSanJoaquinValley，wheremyhometown，Fresno，islocated.Someofmypoemsareabsoluteobservationsandimagesofnature—theorangeyards，theKingsRiver，theSequoias(红杉)．Ifellinlovewiththevalley，bothitsuglinessanditsbeauty，andquietlywrotepoemsaboutittosharewithothers.【语篇解读】

[推理判断题。根据第一段“Thepoemwaswild，almostrude，andnothingliketherhymeandmeterpoetryIhadreadinhighschool.”可知作者在高中所学的诗歌形式与图书馆中所接触的这首诗歌差别很大，属于完全不同的诗歌类型。说明作者开始接触不同类型的诗歌了，故C项正确。]7．Whichofthefollowingwouldtheauthormostprobablywriteaboutinhispoem?A．Movinglovestoriesinhistory.B．Observationsofclassicalpoems.C．Truefeelingsofhumanfriendship.D．Appreciationofwildvalleyflowers.D [推理判断题。根据文章最后一句“Ifellinlovewiththevalley，bothitsuglinessanditsbeauty，andquietlywrotepoemsaboutittosharewithothers.”可知作者非常喜欢这个山谷，接下来要写的内容应该是与山谷相关的内容。故D项正确。]8．Whichofthefollowingistrueaccordingtothepassage?A．Theauthor'sfriendsallencouragedhimtogiveupgeographytopoetry.B．Theauthorbecamedevotedtopoetrybecauseofhisteacher'sstrictness.C．Theauthorlovedtofindsourcesofpoetryfromnatureandthepast.D．SpanishandLatinAmericanpoemsinfluencedtheauthorasmuchasChineseones.C

作者通过自己儿时的一件事明白了与人为善的道理，并且一直坚持如此，从未改变。1．A.offeredB．leftC．promisedD．taughtD [考查动词。根据常识可知，母亲应该“教会”作者很多东西，而且最后一段中的“Weshouldteachouryoungkids”亦是提示。]2．A.accidentB．informationC．incidentD．conflictC [考查名词。根据后文可知，作者要分享的是他小时候干扰并且伤害蚂蚁这件“事”。accident事故；information消息；incident事件；conflict冲突。]3．A.respectB．treatC．questionD．doubtB [考查动词。根据后文中的“Everybodyisequalandweshouldn'ttreatthem______”可知，这件事决定了作者“对待”每个人的方式。]4．A.stayingB．chattingC．wanderingD．playingA [考查动词。根据后文中的“shereadingandIw\natching”可知，作者和母亲没有聊天、闲逛或玩耍，只是“待在”外面。]5．A.treesB．kidsC．antsD．carsC [考查名词。根据后文中的“Idisrupted(使中断)thelineofants”可知，作者在观察蚂蚁。]6．A.incaseB．infactC．aboveallD．atfirstB [考查介词短语。根据后文中的“Iwasknownforkeepingquietevenwhenthingswerenotgoingmyway”可知，这是为证明作者不调皮举的实例，infact“事实上”符合语境。incase意为“万一”，引导条件状语从句。]7．A.troubledB．excitedC．uglyD．scaryA [考查形容词。根据前文中“Idisrupted(使中断)thelineofants”，可以推知蚂蚁会很“不安”。troubled意为“不安的，混乱的”，符合语境。本题易错选D项，scary是“可怕的”，不是感到害怕的，蚂蚁并不“可怕”。]8．A.patientB．familiarC．annoyedD．honestC [考查形容词。根据后文“butshesaidsomethingIstill______today”中的转折关系可以推知，母亲没有“生气”，但是说了一句作者至今仍然“按照其生活”的话。]9．A.livebyB．disagreewithC．getacrossD．lookforA [考查动词短语。参见上题解析。liveby按照(某信念或原则)生活；getacross横过(马路、河等)；被理解。]10．A.familiarB．cruelC．similarD．coolB [考查形容词。根据前文可知，作者母亲不赞成作者的行为，故推知母亲的意思是无论多么渺小的人，也不能对他们“残忍”，每个人都是平等的，不能被“不公正地”对待。cruel意为“残忍的，凶残的”。]11．A.seriouslyB．hopelesslyC．directlyD．unfairlyD [考查副词。参见上题解析。seriously认真地，严重地；hopelessly绝望地；directly直接地，立即；unfairly意为“不公平地”。]12．A.disappointedB．convincedC．comfortedD．terrified\nA [考查动词。根据上文语境特别是前文中的“IgotupsetwhenIheardthisbecause”可知，此处表示作者听完母亲的话心情不好，因为作者觉得让母亲“失望”了。disappoint使失望；convince使确信；comfort安慰；terrify使害怕。]13．A.believinginB．seekingforC．laughingatD．thinkingaboutD [考查动词短语。根据语境可知，作者做了错事，在母亲说完话以后，作者开始“思考”对那些蚂蚁做的事情。believein相信……存在，信赖；seekfor寻找，寻求；laughat嘲笑；thinkabout思考。]14．A.acceptedB．repeatedC．forgottenD．discoveredC [考查动词。根据前文中的“Ithasbeenmorethan25years”以及后文中的“Istilldomybesttobekindtoeverybody”可知，25年来作者“忘记”了很多事情，“然而”，作者现在仍然尽力对所有人都善良。]15．A.thusB．howeverC．thereforeD．besidesB [考查副词。参见上题解析。]16．A.decisionB．differenceC．dealD．livingB [考查名词。根据后文中的“whenpeoplepraiseotherpeoplefortheirefforts...upliftsthewholeworldoneheartatatime”可推知，这种行为会“产生影响”，makeadifference为固定搭配，意为“有作用，有影响”。]17．A.insteadofB．exceptforC．alongwithD．becauseofA [考查介词短语。根据前文中的“praiseotherpeople”和后文中的“beingenvious”可知，此处为转折关系，人们表扬他人“而不是”嫉妒。]18．A.rareB．ambitiousC．insignificantD．significantC [考查形容词。根据语境可知，此处表示无论他们多么“微不足道”，我们都要为实现目标的人们感到骄傲。rare罕见的；ambitious有野心的，有抱负的；insignificant微不足道的；significant有重大意义的。]19．A.debateB．processC．matchD．circleD [考查名词。根据空前的“positive”和空后的“thatgoeson”可知，这是一种良性“循环”。debate辩论；process进程；match比赛，火柴；circle循环，圆圈。]\n20．A.directB．immediateC．chainD．firstC [考查语境选词。根据前文中的“thatgoeson”可知，善待他人会引起“连锁”反应，chainreaction意为“(事情的)连锁反应”，符合语境。]课时提能练(三十六)选修6 Unit18

候鸟每年要进行两次迁徙，行程数千公里，它们靠山脉、河流、天空中的星辰以及感知地球的隐形磁场来找到正确的方向。研究表明，候鸟天生就知道家的方向。1．A [第一段讲到你驾车迷失方向的情景，空处应是与此相关，此处表示你仰望天空，通过星辰找到方向，故A项衔接上下文。]2．C [空前一句表述候鸟能在最漆黑的夜晚远距离找到它们的方向是它们的第二个本性，空处应是解释其原因，故C项“在某种程度上，它们通过读懂天空的方向来找它们的方向”符合语境。]\n3．E [空后的“likemountainrangesandrivers”与E项中的“familiarlandmarks”相呼应。E项(鸟儿在飞行途中利用熟悉的地标)与“如山脉、河流来帮助选定方向”相衔接，故选E项。]4．F [空后的“Thiscompass”是F项中的“innercompass”的复现。代入F项(候鸟宝宝已经具备了一种现有的内在指南针)，其与空后(这种指南针引领它们进行第一次秋季迁徙)语意相连贯。故选F项。]5．B [空前一句表述候鸟宝宝具备的内在指南针引领它们进行第一次秋季迁徙，故B项(所以，候鸟天生知道回家的路)符合语境。]Ⅲ.语法填空(2020·安徽省部分重点校联考)Experiencesareacquiredthroughourjourneyinlife；wechooseandcreateourbeliefs，fearsandopinions1.________(base)onallourexperiencesinlife.Eventhoughthingsandlifearethewaytheyare，weallhavedifferentopinionsabouteverythingandeverybody.Otherpeoplehaveopinionsaboutustoo.But2._________reallymattersistheopinionwehaveabout3.________(we)．Youeitherchoosetoacceptandfollowwhatotherpeoplebelieve4.________decidetobeyourselfandliveaccordingtotherealityoflife.5．________livinglifeasitisandbeingyourself，youcreateanimageaboutyourself.Itisextremelyimportant6.________(understand)howthisimage，createdbyyourbeliefsandimagination，directsandinfluencesyour7.________(grow)．Thisimagethatyoucreateaboutyourself8._________(determine)whoyouareandhowyoufeel；itdetermineshowsuccessfulyoubecomeinlife.Everythingstartsinthemind.Ifyoureallywanttoaccomplishyourdreams，pictureyourselfhavingandlivingthelifeyouwant.Believeinyourselfandbe9._________(confidence)!Itdoesn'tmatterhowbadordifficultthe10._________(circumstance)maylooklike.Inshort，youareashappyorsadasyouseeyourself.【语篇解读】 本文介绍了我们的经历、信仰和个人形象之间的关系以及个人形象的重要性。我们的经历决定了我们的个人观点，我们的个人观点又创造出我们的个人形象。人生中最重要的就是我们对自己的看法与态度。1．based [考查非谓语动词。bebasedon是固定用法，意为“以……为依据”，故此处可为形容词短语作后置定语；另外，basesth.onsth.“以……为依据”也为固定用法，此处“ourbeliefs，fearsandopinions”与base为逻辑上的动宾关系，故用过去分词形式based。]2．what [考查主语从句。分析句子结构可知，此处引导主语从句，在从句中作主语，表示“……的事物”，故填what。注意：that引导主语从句时，在从句中不充当成分。]\n3．ourselves [考查代词。此处表示“我们对自己的看法”，故填反身代词ourselves。]4．or [考查固定搭配。either...or...是固定搭配，意为“要么……要么……”，符合语境。]5．By [考查介词。此处表示通过过真实的生活，做你自己，你创造了一个关于你自己的形象。故用介词by，意为“通过”。]6．tounderstand [考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知，此处考查不定式作真正主语，it作形式主语的用法，故填tounderstand。]7．growth [考查词性转换。分析句子结构可知，空前的形容词性物主代词your的后面应跟名词，故填growth。]8．determines [考查时态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知，空处应与上下文用的一般现在时保持一致，且句子的主语是第三人称单数，故应填determines。]9．confident [考查形容词。分析句子结构可知，空前的系动词be后应跟形容词作表语，故应填confident。]10．circumstances
