外研版高考英語(yǔ)一輪復(fù)習(xí)必修33Module3知能演練(含答案)+關(guān)于偶像的作文：理性的崇拜 閱讀理解A(2018x西贛中南五校聯(lián)考)In its early history，Chicago had floods frequently，especially in the spring，making the streets so muddy that people，horses and carts got stuck.An old joke that was popular at the time went like this：A man is stuck up to his waist in a muddy Chicago street.Asked if he needs help，he replies，“No，thanks.Ive got a good horse under me.”The city planner decided to build an underground drainage(排水) system，but there simply wasnt enough difference between the height of the ground level and the water level.The only two options were to lower the Chicago River or raise the city.An engineer named Ellis Chesbrough convinced the city that it had no choice but to build the pipes above ground and then cover them with dirt.This raised the level of the citys streets by as much as 12 feet.This of course created a new problem：dirt practically buried the first floors of every building in Chicago.Building owners were faced with a choice：either change the first floors of their buildings into basements，and the second stories into mainfloors，or hoist(吊起) the entire buildings to meet the new street level.Small woodframe buildings could be lifted fairly easily.But what about large，heavy structures like the Tremont Hotel, which was a sixstory brick building?Thats where George Pullman came in.He had developed some housemoving skills successfully.To lift a big structure like the Tremont Hotel，Pullman would place thousands of jackscrews(螺旋千斤頂) beneath the buildings foundation.One man was assigned to operate each section of roughly 10 jackscrews.At Pullmans sign each man turned his jackscrews by the same amount at the same time，thereby raising the building slowly and evenly.Astonishingly，the Tremont Hotel stayed open during the entire operation，and many of its guests didnt even notice anything was happening.Some people like to say that every problem has a solution. But in Chicagos early history, every engineering solution seemed to create a new problem.Now that Chicagos waste water was draining efficiently into the Chicago River，the citys next step was to clean the polluted river.【解題導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】本文主要介紹了芝加哥為了應(yīng)對(duì)洪水泛濫的問(wèn)題而實(shí)行了一些解決方案的故事。1The author mentions the joke in Paragraph 1 to show_Ahorses were fairly useful in ChicagoBChicagos streets were extremely muddyCChicago was very dangerous in the springDthe Chicago people were particularly humorousB解析：推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段第一句“In its early history，Chicago had floods frequently，especially in the spring，making the streets so muddy that people，horses and carts got stuck.”可推知，作者提及這個(gè)笑話是為了表明芝加哥的街道非常泥濘，故選B。2The city planners were convinced by Ellis Chesbrough to_Aget rid of the street dirtBlower the Chicago RiverCfight against heavy floodsDbuild the pipes above groundD解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第一句“An engineer named Ellis Chesbrough convinced the city that it had no choice but to build the pipes above ground and then cover them with dirt.”可知，Ellis Chesbrough 讓城市規(guī)劃者相信在地上建管道才能解決洪水泛濫所帶來(lái)的問(wèn)題，故選D。3What can we conclude about the moving operation of the Tremont Hotel?AIt went on smoothly as intended.BIt interrupted the business of the hotel.CIt involved Pullman in turning ten jackscrews.DIt separated the building from its foundation.A解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段內(nèi)容可推知，用螺旋千斤頂把the Tremont Hotel升高的事項(xiàng)進(jìn)展順利，故選A。4The passage is mainly about the early Chicagos_Apopular lifestyles and their influencesBenvironmental disasters and their causesCengineering problems and their solutionsDsuccessful businessmen and their achievementsC解析：主旨大意題。結(jié)合全文可知，本文主要講的是早期芝加哥如何應(yīng)對(duì)洪水泛濫的問(wèn)題的故事，故選C。B(2018x博模擬)When Columbus “sailed the ocean blue in 1492” he wasnt looking for America.He was searching for a route from Spain to China；America just got in the way.The Spanish were after the riches of Asia：silk，dates，spices.Until later adventurers discovered how to sail to the Far East，trade with China depended on the Silk Road.The trade between China and Europe brought huge wealth，so the Spanish had a strong desire to find a new way to the East.Eventually a way appeared；as sea traffic developed from the 17th Century onwards，the overland route diminishedNow China is seeking to revive(復(fù)興) the Silk Road and is preparing to invest 4 trillion pounds in new roads，rail links，oil pipelines and other basic facilities.It is hoped that goods can be shipped westwards by land far more quickly and economically than by sea.But the plan is also to attract more tourists.Actually，China does pretty well for tourists already；its the worlds fourth most visited country.Two citiesBeijing and Shanghaipossess the tourism business，with significant interest in destinations such as Xian and Chengdu.While Beijing is modern，cities such as Lanzhou and Dunhuang have one foot planted firmly in old China.Other places featured include Xian，the former capital of China，where you can come face to face with the Terracotta Army built to protect Chinas first emperor in the afterlife.From Lanzhou tour members take the train to Jiayuguan，Chinas western gateway and a key location on the Silk Road.There is also a fourday coach journey along the original Silk Route through the Xinjiang region to Kashgar.Along the way，at Kurla，you can visit the ruins of the Iron Fortress.【解題導(dǎo)語(yǔ)】本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。在古代，絲綢之路促進(jìn)了東西方商品和文化的交流，后來(lái)沒(méi)落了。但是最近幾年，中國(guó)復(fù)興絲綢之路的計(jì)劃使它又煥發(fā)了活力、魅力。5What does the underlined word“diminished” in Paragraph 2 mean?ADiscovered.BDisappeared.CDisturbed. DDisplayed.B解析：詞義猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第二段最后兩句中的“the Spanish had a strong desire to find a new way to the East.Eventually a way appeared；as sea traffic developed from the 17th Century onwards”可知，當(dāng)時(shí)西班牙人找到了一條更快、更方便的通往中國(guó)的海路，因此隨著海上貿(mào)易的發(fā)展，那條陸地上的絲綢之路逐漸廢棄、消失不見(jiàn)了。由此可推斷出，“diminish”應(yīng)意為“消失”。故選B。6What is the purpose of reviving the Silk Road?ATo rebuild the ruins of the Iron Fortress.BTo construct new roads and other basic structures.CTo make transportation westwards faster and cheaper.DTo draw more inland tourists attention to the western gateway.C解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段第二句可知，這是為了更快、更便宜地將商品輸送至西方。故選C。7What can we learn about the Silk Road?AIt is nothing but a trade route.BIt may destroy some cities ancient style.CIt attracts foreign investment of 4 trillion.DIt promotes the tourism industry of China.D解析：細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段第一句可知，復(fù)興絲綢之路也是為了吸引更多的游客，促進(jìn)中國(guó)旅游業(yè)的發(fā)展。故選D。8What is the best title for the text?AThe Charming of the Silk RoadBThe Function of the Silk RoadCThe Origin of the Silk RoadDThe Future of the Silk RoadA解析：標(biāo)題歸納題。根據(jù)文章內(nèi)容可判斷出，本文主要講述的是：在最近幾年，絲綢之路又煥發(fā)出了魅力和活力，它不僅方便了商品的運(yùn)輸，而且促進(jìn)了中國(guó)旅游業(yè)的發(fā)展。A項(xiàng)體現(xiàn)了本文的主題，適合用作標(biāo)題。故選A。 完形填空(2018x西考前適應(yīng)性測(cè)試)My father, Danny Thomas, was a famous comedian, singer, actor, and producer with many fans.
