人物介绍 高考阅读理解真题 3篇

Arthur Miller (1915—2005) is universally recognized as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th century. Miller’s father had moved to the USA from Austria-Hungary, drawn like so many others by the “Great American Dream”. However, he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early 1930s.

Miller’s most famous play, Death of a Salesman, is a powerful attack on the American system, with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth. In Willy Loman, the hero of the play, we see a man who has got into trouble with this system. Willy is “burnt out” and in the crue l world of business there is no room for sentiment: if he can’t do the work, then he is no good to his employer, the Wagner Company, and he must go. Willy is painfully aware of this, and at a loss as to what to do with his lack of success. He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the end.

When it was first staged in 1949, the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews, and it won the Tony Award for Best Play, the New York Dra ma Critics’ Circle Award, and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. It was the first play to win all three of these major awards.

Miller died of heart failure at his home in Roxbury, Connecticut, on the evening of February 10, 2005, the 56th anniversary of the first performance of Death of a Salesman on Broadway.

Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis was one of the most private women in the world, yet when she went to work as an editor in the last two decades of her life, she revealed (展现) herself as she did nowhere else.

After the death of her second husband, Greek shipping magnate (巨头) Aristotle Onassis, Jacqueline’s close friend and former White House social secretary LetitiaBaldrige made a suggestion that she consider a career (职业) in publishing. After consideration, Jacqueline accepted it. Perhaps she hoped to find there some ideas about how to live her own life. She became not less but more interested in reading. For the last 20 years of her life, Jacqueline worked as a publisher’s editor, first at Viking, then at Doubleday, pursuing (追求) a late-life career longer than her two marriages combined. During her time in publishing, she was responsible for managing and editing more than 100 successfully marketed books. Among the first books were In the Russian Style and Inventive Paris Clothes. She also succeeded in persuading TV hosts Bill Moyers and Joseph Campbell to transform their popular television conversations into a book, The Power of Myth. The book went on to become an international best-seller. She dealt, too, with Michael Jackson as he prepared his autobiography (自传), Moonwalk.

Jacqueline may have been hired for her name and for her social relations, but she soon proved her worth. Her choices, suggestions and widespread social relations were of benefit both to the publishing firms and to Jacqueline herself. In the books she selected for publication, she built on a lifetime of spending time by herself as a reader and left a record of the growth of her mind. Her books are the autobiography she never wrote. Her role as First Lady, in the end, was overshadowed by her performance as an editor. However, few knew that she had achieved so much.

1. We can learn from the passage that Jacqueline ________.

A. became fond of reading after working as an editor

B. was in charge of publishing 100 books

C. promoted her books through social relations

D. gained a lot from her career as an editor

2. The underlined sentence in the last paragraph probably means that ________.

A. Jacqueline ended up as an editor rather than as First Lady

B. Jacqueline’s life as First Lady was more colorful than as an editor

C. Jacqueline was more successful as an editor than as First Lady

D. Jacqueline’s role as First Lady was more brilliant than as an editor

3. What can be inferred from the passage?

A. Jacqueline’s two marriages lasted more than 20 years.

B. Jacqueline’s own publishing firm was set up eventually.

C. Jacqueline’s views and beliefs were reflected in the books she edited.

D. Jacqueline’s achievements were widely known.

4. The passage is mainly ________.

A. an introduction of Jacqueline’s life both as First Lady and as an editor

B. a brief description of Jacqueline’s lifelong experiences

C. a brief account of Jacqueline’s career as an editor in her last 20 years

D. an analysis of Jacqueline’s social relations in publishing

2011 重庆卷D

William Butler Yeats, a most famous Irish writer, was born in Dublin on June 13, 1865. His childhood lacked the harmony (和睦) that was typical of a happy family. Later, Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered "little of childhood but its pain". In fact, he inherited (继承) excellent taste in art from his family — both his father and his brother were painters. But he finally settled on literature, particularly drama (戏剧) and poetry.

Yeats had strong faith in the coming of new artistic movements. He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish national theatre in the late 1890s. His early theatrical experiments, however, were not received favorably at the beginning. He didn’t lose heart, and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama. Compared with his dramatic works, Yeats’s poems attract much admiring notice. The subject matter includes love, nature, history, time and aging. Though Yeats generally relied on very traditional forms, he brought modern sensibility to them. As his literary life progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide recognition.

He had not enjoyed a major public lift since winning the Nobel Prize in 1923. Yet, he continued writing almost to the end of his life. Had Yeats stopped writing at age 40, he would probably now be valued as a minor poet, for there is no other example in literary history of a poet who produces his greatest works between the ages of 50 and 75. After Yeats’s Death in 1939, W. H. Auden wrote, among others, the following lines:

Earth, receive an honored guest:

William Yeats is laid to rest.

Let the Irish vessel (船) lie

Emptied of its poetry.

1. Which of the following can describe Yeats’s family?

A. It filled Yeats’s childhood with laughter.

B. It was shocked by Yeats’s choice.

C. It was a typically wealthy family.

D. It had an artistic atmosphere.

2. According to the passage, what do we know about Yeats’s life?

A. Yeats founded the first Irish theater.

B. Yeats stuck to modern forms in his poetry.

C. Yeats began to produce his best works from the 1910s.

D. Yeats was not favored by the public until the 1923 Noble Prize.

3. What kind of feeling is expressed in W. H. Auden’s lines?

A. Envy.

B. Sympathy.

C. Emptiness.

D. Admiration.

4. What is the passage mainly about?

A. Yeats’s literary achievements

B. Yeats’s historical influence

C. Yeats’s artistic ambition

D. Yeats’s national honor

2010 天津C

In the kitchen of my mother’s houses there has always been a wooden stand（木架）with a small notepad（记事本）and a hole for a pencil.

I’m looking for paper on which to note down the name of a book I am recommending to my mother. Over forty years since my earliest memories of the kitchen pad and pencil, five houses later, the current paper and pencil look the same as they always did. Surely it can’t be the same pencil? The pad is more modern, but the wooden stand is definitely the original one.

“I’m just amazed you still have the same stand for holding the pad and pencil after all these years.” I say to her, walking back into the living-room with a sheet of paper and the pencil. “You still use a pencil. Can’t you afford a pen?”

My mother replies a little sharply. “It works perfectly well. I’ve always kept the stand in the kitchen. I never knew when I might want to note down an idea, and I was always in the kitchen in these days.”

Immediately I can picture her, hair wild, blue housecoat covered in flour, a wooden spoon in one hand, the pencil in the other, her mouth moving s ilently. My mother smiles and says, “One day I was cooking and watching baby Pauline, and I had a brilliant thought, but the stand was empty. One of the children must have taken the paper. So I just picked up the breadboard and wrote it all down on the back. It turned out to be a real breakthrough for solving the mathematical problem I was working on.”

This story—which happened before I was born—reminds me how extraordinary my mother was, and is also a gifted mathematician. I feel embarrassed that I complain about not having enough child-free time to work. Later, when my mother is in the bathroom, I go into her kitchen and turn over the breadboards. Sure enough, on the back of the smallest one, are some penciled marks I recognize as mathematics. Those symbols have traveled unaffected through fifty years, rooted in the soil of a cheap wooden breadboard, invisible（看不到的）exhibits at every meal.

46．Why has the author’s mother always kept the notepad and pencil in the kitchen?

A．To leave messages. B．To list her everyday tasks.

C．To note down maths problems.D．To write down a flash of inspiration.

47. What is the author’s original opinion about the wooden stand?

A. It has great value for the family.

B. It needs to be replaced by a better one.

C. It brings her back to her lonely childhood.

D .It should be passed on to the next generation.

48. The author feels embarrassed for.

A. blaming her mother wrongly.

B. giving her mother a lot of trouble.

C. not making good use of time as her mother did.

D. not making any breakthrough in her field.

49. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?

A.The mother is successful in her career.

B. The family members like traveling.

C. The author had little time to play when young.

D. The marks on the breadboard have disappeared.

50. In the author’s mind, her mother is.

A. strange in behavior.

B. keen on her research.

C. fond of collecting old things.

D. careless about her appearance.

高考语文总复习—文学类文本阅读理解专题训练七 (用时：40分钟分值：40分) 一、阅读下面的文字，完成文后题目。(20分) 冬祭 刘建超 ①我和杨晓敏是朋友，杨晓敏写小小说。体格魁梧、剑眉锐眼的杨晓敏在西北雪域高原 戍边十五年。他的小说散文几乎都与喜马拉雅有着不解的情缘。 ②杨晓敏讲过这样一个经历：在西藏有个最偏远的地方叫“雪域孤岛”，驻扎着海拔最高的哨卡，哨卡周围被皑皑林立的雪峰困住，毫无生气。连续几天落雪，一只在哨卡周围时隐 时现的红狐狸，终于耐不住饥寒，钻出来觅食。哨兵一声呐喊，大伙出动逮住了这只红狐狸。它的眼睛是幽怨的，蠕动的姿态是娇嗔的，红艳艳的毛皮光亮柔软，仿佛一团火焰正在燃 烧…… ③杨晓敏说，你知道吗，传说雪域高原的狐狸油可以治疗冻疮，用狐狸皮做的围脖可以 抵住风雪的严寒。几个新兵脸上早冻得裂开了花，嘴唇的血渍使他们不敢大声说话。杀掉狐 狸，做条围巾什么的，让站岗的哨兵轮流戴它，或许对漫长而凛冽的冬季是一种有效的抗御。 ④哨长摸出一把刀，狐狸本能地痉挛起来，恐惧中闭上那美丽绝伦的双眼，悠长地哀鸣 一声。士兵们几乎同一时刻，全扑上来，七八双粗糙的大手伸出来：别……脸上裂开花的新兵呜咽着说，还是放走它吧，有它来这儿和我们做伴，哨卡不是少些寂寞、单调、枯燥，多 些色彩吗？我情愿每晚多站一班岗，也不要狐狸围脖……狐狸蜷曲雪地，试探着抖抖身子， 腾跃着向雪野掠去…… ⑤杨晓敏说到这里时，刚硬的汉子眼里布满了柔情，吐出一口烟，仿佛那团跳动的火焰 还在眼前闪动。 ⑥我被这个故事感染了，羡慕地说，我有机会一定也要去雪域高原看看，去找找红狐狸。 ⑦杨晓敏说，红狐狸是雪域高原的精灵，哪能你想见就见得着。 ⑧这个故事缠绕了我十几年。去年，我和几个朋友自驾游，首选的路线就是西北雪域高 原，我还给朋友们讲了红狐狸的故事，挑逗得几个哥们儿心里痒痒的，开着两辆越野车，向 着喜马拉雅出发。出发前，我给晓敏发了短信：我去拜访你的．．．．雪域高原了。 ⑨自驾游的乐趣就是随心所欲，几个哥们儿如挣脱了缰绳的野马，自由狂野地消失在冰 天雪地之中。晶莹剔透湛蓝如镜的羊湖，冰挂如柱天地相接的珠峰口，穿越荒凉美丽的无人 区，把哥几个大老爷们激动得泪流满面。昆仑山口遇见的奔腾野驴，公路边旷地上悠然自乐 的野兔，峭壁上优雅挺立的藏羚羊统统收入相机中。还就是没有见到红狐狸。 ⑩夜晚我们来到了世界上海拔最高的寺庙绒布寺，问寺中僧人，附近可否能见到红狐狸？僧人指着雪山说，以前有，经常可以看到，白雪间，一团火在跳动。现在已经见不到了。我

高考英语阅读理解三篇

(A ) A coal-fire stove(炉灶)provided heating for Zhao Yaoqin's courtyard bungalow in a Beijing hutong all her life. This winter, however, the stove has disappeared from the 66-year-old's life, and an electric radiator takes its place beside her bed, a product of a government to use clean energy in the national capital. With the Olympics to be staged in Beijing next August, the city is determined to eliminate the use of coal within the Third Ring Road that circles the city before the Games. The project to replace the stoves with electric radiators has been part of the effort. When the city's four-month long heating season started on Thursday, coal-fired stoves, known as a big source of pollution in the big city, have disappeared from some 20,000 local households like Zhao's bungalow in the inner city "hutong" -- traditional alleyways(小巷) that date back centuries. "We used to boil water or bake bread on the stove," said Zhao, sounding sentimental(伤感) to the disappearance of the coal furnace from her life. Late in the 1990s, Beijing's air quality monitoring office found that the emissions(排放) of sulphur dioxide and carbon monoxide from the hutong areas have been higher than the city's average in winter, mainly because of the coal stoves. With the project to switch to clean energy for heating launched in 1999, the emission level of the two poisonous substances decreased by 42 percent and 44 percent, respectively, this year from 2001 levels. Zhao said the fee for electrical heat for the entire winter was usually around 2,400 yuan (US$323) per household. With the government's subsidy（补贴）, however, she only needed to pay about 500 yuan, nearly the same price as that for coal. 1．Zhao Yaoqin’ example in the passage is to tell us that_______. A.people in Beijing using electric radiators to welcome the Olympics. B.people in Beijing are doing something to protect the environment. C.hutongs in Beijing have a long history. D.People pay more money to use electric radiators than before. 2. The underlined word eliminate probably means________ A. cut down. B. increase. C. get rid of. D. replace 3. We can infer from the passage that ______ A. Zhao Yaoqin has a strong and deep emotion with the use of coal-fire stove. B. The government will pay most of the fee. C. The air of Beijing has been badly polluted since 1990s. D. The people do not use coal eight months in one year. 4. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. The clean air is important when the Olympics Games is held in Beijing. B. The success of the Olympics Games depends on the clean air. C. The government spare no effort to make the environment better. D. The emission level of poisonous substances will be low in 2008.

2019高考语文阅读理解训练题：植物的花香

2019高考语文阅读理解训练题：植物的花香 阅读下面的短文，完成12—17题。 (1)植物的花香有着很多作用。 (2)植物的花有香味是为了传宗接代。植物花朵为了引诱昆虫前来 授粉，不但表现各种艳丽夺目的色彩，还会散发各种迷人的花香。于 是引来蜂蝶竞相采蜜，正所谓“蜂争粉蕊蝶分香”。结果，花粉黏附 在昆虫的身上，随着昆虫的飞行迁移而四处落户安家了。 (3)香花内部有一个专门制造香味的“工厂”——油细胞，这个 “工厂”里的产品就是令人心醉的芳香油。这种芳香油除了散发香味，吸引昆虫传粉外，它的蒸气还能够减少花瓣中水分的蒸发，形成一层“保护衣”，使植物免受白天的强烈日晒和夜晚的寒气侵袭。 (4)植物的花的香味除了有益于自身的生长繁衍，绝大部分还有益 于人类。香气能刺激人的呼吸中枢，从而促动人体吸进氧气，排出二 氧化碳。因为大脑供氧充足，所以能使人保持较长时间旺盛的精力。 此外，香味信息能够深刻地留在人的记忆中，刺激嗅觉，使人的记忆 增强。 (5)利用花香来保健和防病，在我国有着悠久的历史。古代医圣华佗，曾用丁香等制成小巧玲珑的香囊，悬挂在室内，用以防治肺结核、吐泻等疾病。古代民间把金银花放入枕内，用来去头痛，降血压，同 时还有消炎止咳的作用。 (6)不同的花香，能引起人们的不同感受。如桂花的香味使人疲 劳顿消；菊花的香味使人思维清晰。不过，事情都是一分为二的。有 些花香也会给人带来副作用。如百合、兰花的浓香，会引起眩晕和瞬 时的迟钝。 12．给加点字注音。 繁衍瞬时

13．本文的说明内容是。 14．第(4)段说花香“有益于人类”是从哪两个方面说的？(每方面六个字以内) 答：① ② 15．第(4)段画线的句子在文中起的作用是。 16．植物的花香“绝大部分还有益于人类”中的“绝大部分”为什么不能删掉？ 答： 17．第(5)段中列举了两个例子，目的是为了说明

高考“人物传记阅读题”解析

高考“人物传记阅读题”解析 人物传记类文本阅读作为高考选考实用类阅读文本形式一种，也是一种热门文体。因为人物传记对当前青少年的影响程度远远超过了传统小说和诗歌，因而高中语文教材在必修中单列1个人物传记单元，并单独编辑了选修《传记选读》，所选内容涉及古今中外的政治、科学、文学、艺术等名人，包括项羽、苏武、文天祥、徐霞客、谭嗣同、孙中山、华罗庚、邓小平、袁隆平、梁思成、富兰克林、爱因斯坦、罗曼罗兰、贝多芬、盖茨等世界级名人的生平事迹或人生观、价值观的文篇。 高考之所以特别青睐人物传记类文本，还有一个原因是人物传记，往往可以让我们学习人类的先进文化、科学思想和美好情操;传记人物的人生经历、所作所为、所思所感可以对我们的思想观念、生活学习、为人处世起到表率和榜样作用，而且可以理解许多素材，有利于我们的写作、表达和交流。 一、定义和类型 传记是记录人的生活历程和生命轨迹的文体。根据不同的分类标准，传记可分为不同的类别。 从叙述人称看，传记可分为自传和他传(通过对传主的典型事迹的叙写，突出传主形象、性情、品格、成就，表达出对传主的崇敬之情(为反面人物立传则相反)。)，前者是作者自己撰写的，后者是他人撰写的。 根据篇幅的长短，传记可分为大传和小传。 根据创作方法看，传记可分为史学性传记和文学性传记。 从表达方式看，一般的传记以记叙为主，还有一类传记则记叙与评论各半，叫评传。评传是人物传记夹杂着作者评述的一种带有文学评论色彩的体裁。它由传主、本事、作者的思考与评析三要素构成。“传中有评，评中有传，评传结合”是其特点。“传要真实，评要中地”是评传写作的基本要求。(高考重点) 二、传记的特点 传记属应用文体，同时兼具真实性和文学性这两个特点。其中，真实是传记的生命。因为传记叙写的是历史或现实中存在的活生生的人，有真名实姓、居住地点、活动范围等，写作时不允许任意虚构。但传记不同于一般的枯燥的历史记

散文阅读理解训练 题点对点练7 联系文意,紧扣语境 一、阅读下面的文字,完成1~3题。 不忍的句号 迟子建 一个幅员辽阔的国家,春光注定是参差不齐的。三月,我离开故乡时,它还是一世界的白雪,可是到了广东,花间已是落英缤纷了。一个似晴非晴的日子,我来到了南海丹灶镇的苏村,拜谒康有为故居。 一入苏村,看到的是一幅安恬的乡村生活图景:青砖的民居旁蜷着打盹的狗,荷花在水塘里静悄悄地开。挎着菜篮的妇女缓缓地通过石桥,耕牛在树下休憩,这一切,似乎都与我心目中康有为出生地的情景大相径庭,它是那么的和风细雨、欣欣向荣,没有丝毫的荒凉之气、沧桑之气。青少年时代生活在这里的康有为,其心中日益积聚的政治“风暴”,缘何而来? 我对康有为的了解,基本上限于历史教科书上的“定义”,至于他个人的内心经历,不甚了了。看过康有为故居,我很想走近他,了解他。 康有为发蒙读书时,萦绕耳际的除了诵读“四书五经”的声音,还有异乡战事中兵戈相击的声音。这一“士”风与另一“仕”风的交汇,影响了康有为的人生,他日后心中积累的政治风暴,与这两股风的吹拂有关。 当时的中国,内忧外困,他痛恨朝野的“不作为”和软弱,痛恨洋人蚕食祖国的疆土。这不安和愤懑压迫着他,难以解脱。康有为似乎迷途了,他一度遁入风景秀丽的西樵山。康有为在西樵山静坐,其实是想把自己幻化为一支可以烛照人生的蜡烛,这样他面对沉重的黑暗时,内心会有勇气。康有为走出西樵山时,开始了更广博的读书,他的阅读不仅仅局限于历史、文学方面,而是扩展到自然科学上。同时,他还对西学产生了浓厚的兴趣。西学的科学民主与人道精神的渗透,与中国传统的儒学思想的滋养,使康有为视野开阔起来,他恍然觉得“道”已在心中。 一八八八年,康有为离开故乡,向着京师北行,开始了他维新变法的旅程。然而,康有为是乘兴而来,败兴而归。 康有为活了七十岁,但他的生命,在戊戌年他四十一岁时,已然终结。尽管其后他在印度撰写了《大同书》,但他身上的勇气和锐气,在戊戌年后,已不复存在。康有为曾请人在一枚印章上刻下了这样的文字:“维新百日,出亡十六年,三周大地,游遍四洲,经三十一国,行六十万里。”可惜这些“眼界”并没有让他变得开阔和深刻,他在归来后反对的是孙中山领导的国民革命,支持和参与的是张勋复辟。直到他去世的那一年,他还赴天津,为溥仪祝寿。但康有为还是了不起的,“公车上书”和“百日维新”,使他成为中国近代思想启蒙运动的鼻祖,成为个性解放的先驱。 读过关于他的一些文字,我在四月份来到青岛。广东的春天过去了,但青岛的春天正在高潮,桃花点点红,樱花簇簇白。我去了康有为在福山路最后的寓所,门厅里摆放着一幅徐悲鸿先生画的康有为的肖像,他白发苍苍,目光温和,但这温和中却掩饰不住茫然。他嘴角微蹙,似在咀嚼着荣辱和苍凉。他坐在那里,坐在四月的微风中,看着来来往往的人。我想,以他不羁的性情,他并不喜欢坐在画框中。在他心中,那也是一种“牢”吧。 康有为的墓地,在浮山脚下,朝向大海。拜谒他墓地的那天,是个晴好的日子。本该是万木葱茏的时节,可墓地却衰草凄凄。他的墓是圆形的,青白色。远远看去,像是一个句号。康有为就躺在这个句号中。康有为

2013高考语文阅读理解高效训练：小说阅读 阅读下面的作品，完成1~4题 哑了的三角琴 巴金 父亲的书房里有一件奇怪的东西。那是一只俄国的木制三角琴，已经很旧了，上面的三根弦断了两根。它高高地挂在墙角，灰尘盖住它的身体。可是它从来不曾发过一声悲叹或呻吟。我叫它做“哑了的三角琴”。 有一天午后，好奇的我偷偷溜进父亲的书房，爬上椅子。当我的手指刚挨到三角琴，耳边一响，三角琴躺在地上，成了几块烂木板。 父亲回来后小心地把它们用报纸包起来，然后慎重地放到橱里。我很后悔，父亲慢慢地抬起头：“孩子，我并不怪你，我不过在思索、在回忆一件事情。” “说起来已经是十多年前的事了，”父亲这样地开始了他的故事，他的声音非常温和。“是我同你母亲结婚后的第二年，我在圣彼得堡大使馆里做参赞。这一年夏天，你母亲一定要我陪她到西伯利亚去采集囚人歌谣。这不是一件容易的事，监狱里向来绝对禁止囚人唱歌，犯了这个禁例，就要受重罚。我们来到西伯利亚一所监狱，把来意告诉狱中当局，一个禁卒插嘴说：‘我知道拉狄焦夫会唱歌’，典狱便叫他把拉狄焦夫领来。 “拉狄焦夫来了，年纪很轻，还不到三十岁，样子一点也不凶恶，如果不是穿着囚衣，戴着脚镣，谁也想不到他是一个杀人犯。他站在我们的面前，胆怯地望着我们。当我们说想听他唱歌时，这个囚人暗黑的眼睛里忽然露出了一线亮光，似乎有一种快乐的欲望鼓舞着他。他望了望典狱，又望着你母亲，略带兴奋地说：‘如果你们可以给我一只三角琴，那么……’典狱叫人找一只三

角琴。 “这时候秋天的阳光从玻璃窗射进屋子里，正落在他的身上。他闭着眼睛，弹起琴弦，开始唱起来。他似乎受到了鼓舞，好像进到了梦里一样，完全忘掉了自己地尽情唱着。唱完歌，他吻着琴，像母亲吻孩子一样。 “‘尼特加，把三角琴给我拿过来！’典狱毫不动心地对禁卒说。 “禁卒走到拉狄焦夫面前，这个囚人的面容突然改变了：两只眼睛里充满着血和火，脸完全成了青色。他坚定地立着，紧紧抱着三角琴，怒吼道：‘谁来，我就要杀谁！’你母亲和我，都吓坏了。 “典狱冷酷地说：‘给他夺下来。’他这时候明白抵抗也没有用了，便慢慢地让三角琴落在地上，忽然倒在椅子上低声哭起来。‘我们不能够再帮忙你什么吗？’你母亲悲声地问。 “‘谢谢你们。我只想请你们到布——村的教堂里点一支蜡烛放在圣母像前，并且做一次弥撒祝安娜。’说到安娜这个名字，他几乎又要哭出来，但他马上忍住了。 “门开了，两个兵把他押了出去；脚镣声愈去愈远。一切回到平静了。 “‘这个拉狄焦夫是怎样的一个人？’我凄然地问。 “‘有一天教堂中正在举行婚礼，新郎是一个有钱的中年商人，新娘是本村中出名漂亮的小家女子。拉狄焦夫忽然闯进来，用斧头把新娘、新郎都砍倒了。新娘后来死了，新郎成了残废。拉狄焦夫并不逃走，他被判了终身惩役罪，也不要求减刑。从此他的口就永远闭上了。’禁卒一面说，一面望着桌上的三角琴，最后加了一句：‘三角琴也弄坏了。’你母亲就花了一点钱向禁卒买来了三角琴。她把它带回圣彼得堡。

高考英语 阅读理解分类汇编之人物传记类

2011高考英语阅读理解分类汇编之人物传记类 1.（2011·山东卷）A Arthur Miller(1915-2005)is universally recognized as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th century. Miller` s father had moved to the USA from Austria Hungary,drawn like so many others by the“Great Ame rican Dream”. However, he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early l930s. Millers' s most famous play, Death of a Salesman , is a powerful attack on the American system ,with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth. In Willy Loman , the hero of the play, we see a man who has got into trouble with his worth. Willy is “burnt out” and in the cruel world of business there i s no room for sentiment : if he can't do the work, then he is no good to his employer, the Wagner Company, and he must go. Willy is painfully aware of this, and at loss as to what to do with his lack of success. He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the end. When it was first staged in 1949 ,the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews ,and it won the Tony Award for Best Play, the New York Drama Critics` Circle Award, and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. It was the first play to win all three of these major awards. Miller died of heart failure at his home in Roxbury, Connecticut ,on the evening of February 10,2005,the 56th anniversary of the first performance of Death of a Salesman on Broadway.56. Why did Arthur Miller' s father move to the USA? A. He suffered from severe hunger in his home country. B. He was attracted by the "Great American Dream. C. He hoped to make his son a dramatist. D. His family business failed. 57. The play Death of a Salesman A. exposes the cruelty of the American business world B. discusses the ways to get promoted in a company C. talks about the business career of Arthur Miller D. focuses on the skills in doing business 58. What can we learn about Willy Loman?

星还要明星。我注视着她，心里美滋滋的，十分舒坦。医生 和其他人一样都喜欢欣赏美的东西。 “医生，早安。” 一见到我立在门旁，那一位“全是红红的”便开口说。她不 但人长得妩媚，声音也十分悦耳。说了“早安”以后，她转过 头对着A、B说：“你们两位先看吧，你们一起进去吧。”回头又对我说：“医生，她们是我亲戚。先给她们看吧，她们都 病得不轻。等下轮到我，诊费跟我的一起算，由我来付。” 瞧，这美丽的女人，心地多好！A、B进来了，我心不在焉地给她们检查了一下，发现A是患了流行性感冒，B是吃错东西拉肚子。我给她们各打了一针并配了药方，前后不到 几分钟就解决了A、B的问题。她们似乎发现我给她们看病 时的心猿意马，也发觉我是要尽快地把她们打发走。老实说 这时候我脑海里想的是候诊室中正在候诊的那位“全是红红的”，想让她快点进来，好让我好好欣赏。当我开门把A、B 送走，正要招呼那位“全是红红的”的时候，发现我的候诊室 里空无一人。开始以为她上厕所去了，这时厕所的门敞开着，

(15份)历年高考英语真题分类精编：七选五

历年高考试题分项解析之专题七选五 1【2016·全国新课标I】 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Secret codes (密码)keep messages private。Banks, companies, and government agencies use secret codes in doing business, especially when information is sent by computer. People have used secret codes for thousands of years. 71 Code breaking never lags(落后) far behind code making. The science of creating and reading coded messages is called cryptography. There are three main types of cryptography. 72 For example, the first letters of “My elephant eats too many eels” Spell out the hidden message “Meet me.” 73 You might represent each letter with a number, For example, Let’s number the letters of the alphabet, in order, from 1 to 26. If we substitute a number for each letter, the message “Meet me”would read “13 5 20 13 5.” A code uses symbols to replace words, phrases, or sentences. To read the message of a real code, you must have a code book. 74 For example “bridge“ might stand for “meet” and “out” might stand for “me.” The message “bridge out” would actually mean “Meet me.”75 However, it is also hard to keep a code book secret for long. So codes must be changed frequently. A.It is very hard to break a code without the code book. B .In any language, some letters are used more than others. C. Only people who know the keyword can read the message. D.As long as there have been codes, people have tried to break them. E.You can hide a message by having the first letters of each word spell it out. F.With a code book, you might write down words that would stand for other words. G.Another way to hide a message is to use symbols to stand for specific letters of the alphabet. 2【2016·全国新课标II】 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 A garden that’s just right for you Have you ever visited a garden that seemed just right for you, where the atmosphere of the garden appeared to total more than the sum(总和) of its parts? 71 . But it doesn’t happen by accident. It starts with looking inside yourself and understanding who you are with respect to the natural world and how you approach the gardening process. ● ___72 Some people may think that a garden is no more than plants, flowers, patterns and masses of color. Others are concerned about using gardening methods that require less water and fewer fertilizers(肥料). 73 . However, there are a number of other reasons that might explain why you want to garden. One of them comes from our earliest years. ● Recall(回忆)your childhood memories Our model of what a garden should be often goes back to childhood. Grandma’s rose garden and Dad’s vegetable garden might be good or bad, but that’s not what’s important. 74 --how being in those gardens made us feel. If you’d like to build a powerful bond with your garden, start by taking some time to recall the gardens of your youth. 75 then go outside and work out a plan to translate
