高考1——學會分享
(時間:分鐘)維A 閱讀理解(每題2分,滿分8分)(2024·安徽卷)In Asia,there are special competitions where kites have complex designs and are fitted with instruments that make musical sounds as the wind blows through them.Although all kites have a similar structure (結構),they are widely different in size and shape.Kite-fighting competitions are also held,in which competitors use their kites to attack and bring down their opponents'(對手) kites or cut their strings(線).
For more than 15 years,the Big Wind Kite Factory has been giving kite-making and kite-flying classes for the children on an island in Hawaii.In its kite-making lessons,students can make kites in as little as 20 minutes!Children as young as four years old can learn how to fly a kite.Jonathan Socher and his wife Daphne started the kite factory in 1980.Their kites are made of nylon(尼龍).Their designs are Hawaiian themes created by Daphne.The designs are cut out of the nylon with a hot knife that seals the edges and then fastened directly onto the kite.
The kite that is used to give lessons is a regular diamond kite with a rainbow pattern.The difference between this kite and the ones they make during the lessons is that it is a twostring controllable kite.Big Wind employees fly the kite and for a few minutes show students how pulling on one line and then on the other controls the direction the kite goes in.Then the controls are given to the students.
Jonathan insists that it is not necessary to make a huge impressive kite to have fun making and flying kites.Even the simplest structure can work,and can give hours of fun.Go on,give it a try!
【語篇解讀】 一家風箏廠15年來一直堅持為夏威夷一座島嶼上的孩子開設制作風箏和放風箏的課程。
1.Which of the following is true according to the text?
A.A hot knife is used to iron the nylon.
B.Children never fly kites on their own in flying lessons.
C.Kite strings must not be cut in kite-fighting competitions.
D.Daphne designs kites for the Big Wind Kite Factory.
答案D[考查細節理解。根據第二段最后一句可知,使用加熱過的刀是切割尼龍,而不是熨燙尼龍,故A錯。B項與第三段最后一句“Then the controls are given to the students.”相悖。根據第一段最后一句可知C項錯誤。由第二段倒數第二句和倒數第四句可知D項表述正確。]
2.What is different about the kite used for flying lessons?
A.It has two strings.
B.It is simple in design.
C.It has a rainbow pattern.
D.It is shaped like a diamond.
答案A[考查細節理解。根據第三段第二句“The difference between this kite and the ones they make during the lessons is that it is a two-string controllable kite.”可知,與孩子們在制作課上制作的風箏不同的是飛行課上使用的風箏是雙線控制的,故選A。]
3.According to Jonathan,what do you need to have fun with kites?
A.A large kite.
B.Any type of kite.
C.A complex structure.
D.A kite that impresses others.
答案B[考查推理判斷。最后一段表明的是Jonathan的觀點。根據他的觀點可推知,他認為即使構造最簡單的風箏也可以給你帶來快樂,不一定非要制作大而華麗的風箏,故選B。]
4.What is mainly described in the text?
A.A kite factory.
B.Kite-flying lessons.
C.Special competitions.
D.The kite-making process.
答案A[考查主旨大意。通讀全文可知,本文主要介紹了一家風箏廠15年來一直堅持為夏威夷一座島嶼上的孩子開設制作風箏和放風箏的課程,故選A。B、C、D三項只是文章的細節,并不是主旨。]

Just weeks after a fire roared
through
her apartment complex,Jessica Arias was looking on the bright side.Arias says she has plenty to be thankful for—she is already living in a new place,working on replacing her wardrobe and belongings.
Arias was among the 32 residents displaced by a kitchen fire that spread through the Radcliffe Apartments at 366 W.Olive Ave,on the morning of Oct.28,damaging 17 units.
Things looked bleak for Arias on the day of the fire,when she first spoke to the Sunnyvale Sun,but within the past few weeks,Arias has managed to turn her file around.Just a few days before Thanksgiving,she talked about what it has been like to rebuild her life.
“At least I have my health,and that is what is most important,” says Arias,31,who escaped the flames that morning with her purse,cell phone and a handful of important documents.
As the fire turned her belongings to ash,she stood on the opposite side of the street looking on.During the fire,Arias called her co-worker Charli Freeman,who jumped in her truck and immediately drove to be by Arias' side.“It wasn't even a conscious thought,” Freeman said.“I didn't want her to be by herself.” Arias is from the East Coast and does not have family in California,but friends and co-workers came to the rescue.
As word spread through her office,co-workers dug into their pockets and collected money to help Arias get back on her feet.Two women from her workplace took Arias the money that day,along with a jacket from a co-worker to keep her warm while she stood outside.They also brought her photos of her boyfriend for comfort.
Note:
bleak adj. 陰暗的
【語篇解讀】 本文是記敘文。大火無情人有情,大火使Arias幾乎失去所有財產,但同事們的幫助使她重新振作起來了。

2.Charli Freeman came to Arias' help because ________.
A.she was sent by Arias' boyfriend
B.she was Arias' best friend
C.she came on behalf of the co-workers
D.she thought it was natural to help a co-worker
答案D[細節理解題。從文章倒數第二段可知,同事接到Arias的電話后想都沒想就來幫助她,這說明同事認為幫助Arias是很自然的事情。]
3.We can infer from the passage that Arias ________.
A.is still sad about the things lost in the fire
B.is struggling to find a new place to live
C.has a positive attitude towards what happened

維D 根據短文內容,從下框的A~F選項中選出能概括每一段主題的最佳選項。選項中有一項為多余項。(每題2分,滿分10分)
Ways to Motivate Others
1.
As a leader you need to treat the people helping you with the most respect and kindness.Hand out your praise when it's necessary.You might not know it,but it's a big motivation booster(助推器) when people are treated right.People enjoy knowing when they're doing a good job and enjoy working with people that treat others with kindness.
2.
If there are certain tasks that you're allowed to delegate to others,by all means choose someone to take responsibility for that task.When people are fully responsible,they'll be more likely to find the motivation to complete the task.This is because,as a part of a group,they may not feel like their hard work matters,but when they're responsible it certainly matters.They also know that they're being held accountable for the success or failure of the project.
3.
Think long and hard about how your goal setting abilities can teach you how to motivate others.You don't want to set goals that are too easy.Your team might reach them quickly but they won't be pushed to become the best they can be.On the other end,you don't want to set goals that are unattainable (無法實現的) either.Your team will quickly lose motivation because they'll never get the feeling of having met their goals.You want to find a goal that would push them to achieve just a little more than they have in the past and keep going from there.
