(2018南昌高三二模)

When I was five or six years old,I remember watching TV and seeing other children suffer in other parts of the world.I would say to myself,“When I grow up,when I can get rich,I will save kids all over the world.”

At 17,I started my career here in America,and by the age of 18,I started my first charity organization.I went on to team up with other organizations in the following years,and met,helped,and even lost some of the most beautiful souls,from six-year-old Jasmina Anema who passed away in 2010 from leukemia(白血病),and whose story inspired thousands to volunteer as donors,to my grandmother,who lost her battle with cancer in 2012,and her death is the very reason and the driving force behind the Clara Lionel Foundation(CLF).We’re all human.And we all just want a chance:a chance at life,a chance in education,a chance at a future,really.And at CLF,our mission is to impact as many lives as possible,but it starts with just one.

People make it seem too hard to do charity work.The truth is,you don’t have to be rich to help others.You don’t need to be famous.You don’t even have to be college-educated.But it starts with your neighbor,the person right next to you,the person sitting next to you in class,the kid down the block in your neighborhood.You just do whatever you can to help in any way that you can.And today,I want to challenge each of you to make a commitment to help one person,one organization,one situation that touches your heart.My grandmother always used to say,“If you’ve got a dollar,there’s plenty to share.”

1.What did the author want to do at a young age?

A.Watch TV.        B.Grow up quickly.

C.Become wealthy. D.Help other children.

2.What directly caused the author to create and develop the CLF?

A.A six-year-old kid’s request.     B.Her grandmother’s death of cancer.

C.Many volunteers’ inspiration.     D.Other organizations’ encouragement.

3.What does the underlined word“one”in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A.A chance.  B.A task.

C.A life.    D.An organization.

语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了小时候在电视中看到世界上其他地方遭受困苦的孩子时,作者下定决心长大后要帮助他们。长大后,作者建立了慈善组织来帮助需要帮助的人。

答案及剖析:

1.D　细节理解题。根据第一段可知,作者小时候在电视中看到受苦的孩子,想要长大后能帮助他们。

2.B　细节理解题。根据第二段中的“to my grandmother,...her death is the very reason and the driving force behind the Clara Lionel Foundation(CLF)”可知,在2012年,祖母因癌症去世,这促使作者建立了CLF。

3.C　猜测指代题。根据第二段最后一句可知,CLF的任务是尽可能影响更多人的生命。由“as many lives as possible”可知,one指代a life。

Every day when Glen Oliver orders his morning coffee at the drive-through window of a local cafe,he insists on paying for the order of the person behind him.He also asks the restaurant workers to tell the customer to have a great day,in case     they’re not already having one.

Oliver has never made a big deal out of his own generous actions until a letter was published by a news website in November.He found out that he had not just bought someone his breakfast—he had saved a life.

According to the website,someone had written a letter stating that on July 18th,he was planning on committing suicide.The writer said that while he was at the drive-through window,he was planning on going home,writing a note and ending his life.When he went to pay for his coffee and muffin,however,the cashier told him that the man in the SUV in front of him had picked up the tab and told him to have a great day.

“I wondered why someone would buy coffee for a stranger for no reason,” said the writer.“Why me? Why today? If I were a religious man,I would take this as a sign.This random act of kindness was directed at me on this day for a purpose.”

When the writer arrived home,he couldn’t hold back his tears and started to think about the simple good deed that had affected him so deeply.“I decided at that moment to change my plans for the day and do something nice for someone.I ended up helping a neighbor take groceries out of her car and into the house.”

The writer said that in the months following that fateful event,he does at least one kind thing for others every day.“To the nice man in the SUV,thank you from the bottom of my heart.Please know your kind gesture has truly saved a life,”he said.“On July 18,2017,I had the greatest day.”

4.A　细节理解题。根据第一段第一句话可知,Glen Oliver每天早晨买咖啡时都会为下位顾客付钱。

5.D　细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句并结合本文最后两句可知,2017年7月18日对Oliver来说是特别的一天,因为那天他挽救了一个准备自杀的人的生命。

(2018广西西宁高三三模)

Salt is a must-have seasoning(调味品)in our homes.But 1.　　　　(have) too much of it may cause health problems,from strokes to heart disease.So should we just give it up? Well,for salt 2.　　　　(love) who also like to look after their health,the good news is that Japanese scientists have given us a guilt-free way of enjoying the seasoning.They’ve created an electric salt-flavored fork.The Electro Fork can run for six hours without charging and it is 3.　　　　(help) to give food a salty taste.It 4.　　　　(develop) by Tokyo University as part of the No Salt Restaurant project in 2016,which aimed to offer either low-salt 5.　　　　salt-free food.The restaurant opened 6.　　　　(it) doors for a trial on April 10.

答案及剖析:

1.having　考查动名词。动名词作主语。

2.lovers　 考查名词。根据后面的定语从句“who also like to look after their health,”可知,此处应该是主语,而且是复数形式。

3.helpful　 考查形容词。在系动词is后面应该用形容词作表语。此处运用了it is helpful to do sth.结构。

4.was developed　考查时态和语态。根据时间状语in 2016可知,此句话用一般过去时;而且主语It(The Electro Fork)与develop之间是被动关系,所以用一般过去时的被动语态。

5.or　此处运用了either... or...结构,指“或者……或者……”。

6.its　考查代词。此处指“它的门”,用形容词性物主代词。

7.is　考查时态和主谓一致。本句的主语是不定代词All,后面跟了定语从句“you have to do”,文章是议论文用一般现在时态。

8.from　考查介词。apart from是固定搭配,指“除了”的意思。

9.to let　考查非谓语动词。不定式作目的状语。

10.that　考查连词。that引导同位语从句,说明fact的内容,that在从句中不作成分。

Ⅲ.书面表达

One possible version:

Dear Peter,

I’m sorry to hear that you were scolded by your parents.But to be honest,I think they did the right thing.

To start with,being a student,it is our primary task to study hard rather than being addicted to playing phone games.In addition,all your parents said and did is because they care about you.You should know that.What’s more,it is necessary that you arrange your time for study and leisure wisely.At no time should you let phone games absorb you again and disappoint your parents.

Hope what I say will cheer you up.

Yours sincerely,

Li Hua
