2019-2020年高考英語 閱讀微技能訓(xùn)練 篇章結(jié)構(gòu)題(2) A mon enough remark is that speed reading takes the joy out of reading. However, is this entirely fair? To answer this, we need to look at some of the reasons why we need speed reading. It should always be in your mind that speed reading is a skill. Actually, it is adopted in certain situations and its not always necessarily a skill you need to apply every time you read something. An example, if you are in bed reading the latest novel, it is unlikely that you are going to read fast. The reason： first, you have spent money on it； second, because the atmosphere in which to read is one of relaxation and taking things easy. If we now change the scene to one where we are reading the latest financial report from a pany, even if we are doing this in bed, the environment has changed. The need and reason why we read in these two scenes is not the same. In the former we relax in fort. In the latter we are in a professional way. Clearly in the latter, where we want to be done with the reading and off to sleep, we can adapt our speed reading skills and in the　former we may choose not to. In other words, speed reading skill is a “horses for courses” skill. Apply them at times when you need to read something really fast, but not when you dont need to. Furthermore, as your retention(記憶) rates are usually better with speed reading, it is often a good idea that you speed reading at times when you have a special need to understand and retain the information. It is far more likely that understanding and retaining the information in the financial report is going to be more beneficial to you, so use your speed reading skills at this time so that you can increase your chances of understanding and retaining. As you can see then, having the ability to be able to speed reading will allow you the choice of reading faster, or slower. Its about having choices. 1.

However, it has been said that today children interrupt their education to go to school. The difference between schooling and education implied by this remark is important. Education is much more open-ended and all-inclusive than schooling. Education knows no bounds. It can take place anywhere, whether in the shower or on the job, whether in a kitchen or on a tractor. It includes both the formal learning that takes place in schools and the whole world of informal learning. The agents of education can range from a respected grandparent to the people debating politics on the radio, from a child to a well-known scientist. While schooling tries something that can be predicted, education quite often produces surprises. A chance conversation with a stranger may lead a person to discover how little is known of other religions. People are engaged in education from babies on. Education, then, is a very broad, inclusive term. It is a lifelong process, a process that starts long before the start of school, and one that should be an integral (不可或缺的) part of ones life. Schooling, on the other hand, is a specific, formalized process, whose general pattern varies little from one setting to the next. Throughout a country, children arrive at about the same time, take assigned seats, are taught by an adult, use similar textbooks, do homework, take exams, and so on. The slices of reality that are to be learned, whether they are the alphabet or an understanding of the workings of government, have usually been limited by the boundaries of the subject being taught. For example, high school students know that they are not likely to find out in their classes the truth about political problems in their munities or what the newest filmmakers are experimenting with. There are definite conditions surrounding the formalized process of schooling. 10. What does the author probably mean by “children interrupt education to go to school”? A. The more years students go to school, the worse their education is. B. People are engaged in education the whole life. C. Children go to school just to make trouble. D. Schooling is not educationally beneficial. 11. The phrase “For example” in the last paragraph introduces a sentence that gives examples of______. A. the slices of reality that are to be learned B. the result of schooling C. limitations of classroom teaching D. the similarities of all schools 12. Which of the following conclusions does the passage support? A. Without formal education, people would remain ignorant. B. Education systems need to be thoroughly reformed. C. Education involves many years of petence training. D. Going to school is only part of ones education. 13. The passage is written in the way of_________. A. contrasting the meaning of two related words B. giving examples of different kinds of education C. listing and discussing several educational problems D. providing facts to support an argument (D) Lying in the sun on a rock, the cougar(美洲獅) saw Jeb and his son, Tom before they saw it. Jeb put his bag down quickly and pulled his jacket open with both hands, making himself look big to the cougar. It worked. The cougar hesitated, ready to attack Jeb, but ready to forget the whole thing, too. Jeb let go of his jacket, grasped Tom and held him across his body, making a cross. Now the cougars enemy looked even bigger, and it rose up, ready to move away, but unfortunately Tom got scared and struggled free of Jeb. “Tom, no, “shouted his father. But Tom broke and ran and thats the last thing you do with a cougar. The second Tom broke free, Jeb threw himself on the cougar, just as it jumped from the rock. They hit each other in mid-air and both fell. The cougar was on Jeb in a flash, forgetting about Tom, which was what Jeb wanted. Cougars are not as big as most people think and a determined man stands a chance, even with just his fists. As the cougars claws got into his left shoulder, Jeb swung his fist at its eyes and hit hard. The animal howled and put its head back. Jeb followed up with his other fist. Then out of the corner of his eye. Jeb saw Tom. The boy was running back to help his father. “Knife, Tom,” shouted Jeb. The boy ran to his fathers bag, while Jeb started shouting as well as hitting, to keep the cougars attention away from Tom. Tom got the knife and ran over to Jeb. The cougar was moving its head in and out, trying to find a way through the wall Jeb was making out of his arms. Tom swung with the knife, into the cougars back. It howled horribly and ran off into the mountains. The whole fight had taken about thirty seconds. 14. Why did Jeb pull his jacket open when he saw the cougar? A. To get ready to fight. B.

Identifying your personality characteristics is the first step in developing a good attitude. Are you a positive, confident person or are you shy and reserved? Do you face problems, looking for solutions, or do you find someone to blame? Characteristics define you. They help you succeed, or they hold you back. Self-awareness, or understanding the factors that make up your personality, is an important step towards happiness, and happiness is the key characteristic of a good attitude. To bee self-aware is to be aware of both your good and bad characteristics. What are the characteristics that people pliment(恭維) on you? Are you “dependable”, “responsible”, or “solid”? Pay attention to the pliment because they are a confirmation of your strongest characteristics. You can use these characteristics to create an even better image. People form opinions about you. Whether they are right or wrong doesnt enter the equation. You, however, can change their opinions by demonstrating the personality characteristics and attitudes that match the way you want to be viewed. In being self-aware, understanding how others see you is an important step. This can be painful； but if you are brave enough to try it, it can be an excellent growth experience. Change is not easy, especially when it has to do with your behaviors. You should break the behavior change into small steps because small steps are easier to achieve and more likely to last. The change will be permanent if you want to change for yourself. 18. The author mentions Miguel in order________.

You shouldn’t be. Just take a look around the next time you’re on the subway or riding the bus: It seems that just about everyone these days is busily tapping away on their phones, playing games and sending e-mails. For technology panies, smartphones are the biggest business around. Apple’s iPhone is now worth more than some of the largest panies in the world, including Microsoft. But it’s not just the corporations making the money. The smartphone boom has provided opportunities for people to make and sell their own apps. Nick D’Aloisio, just 17 years old, hit the news headlines in November for making a brand new app for reading news, called Summly, which cleverly uses equations (方程式) to turn stories into short summaries. It shot up to number nine in the charts just two hours after its release in the US. But he’s not the only young person seizing this opportunity. So where will smartphones go next? A lot of new ideas have been proposed. Google, for example, has recently shown off a type of smartphone you can actually wear like a pair of glasses. If successful, this new product promises to pave a new future for municating. However, there are others who argue that smartphone makers have reached a limit in revolutionary ideas. Either way, there’s no sure way of predicting the future. After all, who can tell when a groundbreaking (開創(chuàng)性的) idea might hit them? But perhaps there are bigger questions than this. “I fear the day that technology will surpass our human interaction,” Albert Einstein once said. “The world will have a generation of idiots.” This statement is beginning to ring true. If our grandparents had been told that in the year xx everyone would walk around looking at puters in their hands, would they have believed it? In an ever-connected world of social networks, have we actually bee unsociable? Is the fascination turning into a dangerous addiction? There are certainly positive and negative aspects of the smartphone culture. We hope you enjoy this exploration into some of them. 21. With the example of Nick D’Aloisio, the author intends to tell us that _____. A. the new app for reading news has been well received since its release B. the smartphone boom has inspired many people to make apps and succeed C. there is an increasing demand for news reading with the popularity of smartphones D. many corporations and people earn money by making and selling apps for smartphones 22. What is one of the bigger questions facing us in the era of smartphones according to the last two paragraphs? A. Overuse of technology. B. The limit in revolutionary ideas. C. The loss of human interaction. D. Trouble with new ways of munication. 23. Which of the following best shows the structure of the article?
