2020届高考英语阅读理解(四选一)专题分类特训---阅读2(二)

‎1、    A young woman sits alone in a cafe sipping(啜饮) tea and reading a book. She pauses briefly to write in a nearby notepad before showing her words to a passing cafe waiter, “Where are the toilets,please?” This is a familiar scene in Tokyo’s so-called “silent cafés", where customers are not allowed to speaks and only communicate by writing in notepads.‎ ‎    The concept rises by a desire to be alone among young Japanese, a situation brought by economic uncertainty, a shift in traditional family support structures and the growing social isolation(隔离). The phenomenon is not limited to coffee shops, but covers everything from silent discos, where participants dance alone wearing wireless headphones connected to the DJ , to products such as small desk tents designed for conversation-free privacy in the office. One Kyoto company even offers single women the opportunity to have a “one woman wedding”一a full bridal affair, complete with white dress and ceremony, and the only thing missing being the groom. The trend has its own media expression “botchi-zoku”,referring to individuals who consciously choose to do things completely on their own.‎ ‎    One recent weekday afternoon, Chihiro Higashikokubaru, a 23-year-old nurse, traveled 90 minutes from her home to Tokyo on her day off in order to enjoy some personal time. Speaking quietly at the entrance of the cafe, Miss Higashikokubaru said, "I heard about this place via Twitter and I like the idea of coming here. I work as a nurse and it’s always very busy. There are very few quiet places in Tokyo, and it’s a big busy city. I just want to come and sit somewhere quietly on my own. I’m going to drink a cup of tea and maybe do some drawings. I like the idea of a quiet and calm atmosphere."‎ ‎    The desire to be isolated is not a new concept in Japan. There is an estimated 3. 6 million “hikikomori”一a more extreme example of social recluses(隐士) that completely leave society.‎ ‎1.What is special about the "silent café"? A.It provides various tea and books. B.People are not allowed to communicate. C.It has attracted many young people. D.It offers service by writing not by ‎ speaking. 2.Which of the following accounts for the idea of being alone in Japan? A.The increasing social isolation. B.The stable economic situation. C.The rising demand for privacy. D.The rapid development of Internet. 3.What do we know about Higashikokubaru? A.She doesn't like to be a nurse. B.She doesn't like the life in big cities. C.She enjoys her personal time in a quiet place. D.She travels to Tokyo on her work days. 4.What is the best title of the passage? A.Silent Cafés B.Lonely Japanese C.One Woman Wedding D.Social Recluses in Japan ‎2、Pride and Prejudice for the Modern Woman Let us imagine how Pride and Prejudice, Jane Austen's most famous work, might be updated, 200 years on. Austen's popularity is rooted in her intelligence. But today she would certainly have had a very different life, as would her characters(角色). Here's my own suggestion. . .‎ It is a truth finally and universally acknowledged that a single woman with brains deserves to have equal opportunities to men, however disadvantaged she may feel by sexism.‎ ‎" My dear husband," said his hopeful wife one day, " have you heard that the local store, standing empty for so long, is taken over by a bright young businesswoman?"‎ Her dull and indifferent (漠不关心的) husband replied that he had not. "But it is, it is," she replied excitedly. Mr Dull-Husband made no reply.‎ ‎"Don't you want to know her plans?" she cried with some impatience.‎ ‎"Well, clearly you think it matters to your silly little head. .. so I'd better listen. "‎ ‎"Well, my dear, the rumour (传言) is that she has already set up a string of successful businesses in northern England, though how a woman can know anything about ‎ that is beyond me”. She will move in herself next month. " "What is her name?" "Bingley. "‎ ‎"Is she married or single?"‎ ‎"What a question! And none of your business. But her coming will be a fine thing for our five boys. " "How so? How can it possibly affect them? "‎ ‎"My dear love; those lazy boys need something to wake them up. There are bound to be jobs going. "‎ ‎" Is that her point in settling here? Surely as a woman she has simply taken a fancy to the place."‎ ‎" Nonsense, my love, how little you've noticed the world has changed. She's got a first-rate degree and some sort of business qualification, I'm told. She surely needs one of our boys! Perhaps you might give her a call. "‎ ‎"Me? No. Perhaps you can take an interest. You still have your looks, after all. She may even offer you a job. " "Oh, that's not likely. These new chances belong to the younger generation. But now you mention it, I think I'll go along all the same. "‎ And Mrs Bennet went along. That was 10 years ago. She is now managing director of a FTSE-listed company.‎ It would remain the case, of course, that Mrs Bennet would be one of very few women on the company board, that her salary would be lower than her male colleagues, her bonus of a more "female" dimension(方面) and her lifespan (年限) among the city's business leaders shorter than theirs. Still, she'd no doubt have enjoyed Davos(达沃斯经济论坛)—and might even have hobnobbed (攀谈) with influential figures.‎ ‎1.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A.Austen was born 200 years ago. B.Austen rewrote Pride and Prejudice. C.Austen's success lies in her wisdom.

A.get married to B.work for her C.help her move in D.take over her store 4.What does the writer intend to tell us? A.Women with brains can also be as successful as men. B.Women have to pay a high price for success. C.A judgment must be made free from prejudice. D.Sex discrimination still exists nowadays.‎ ‎3、No one knew Prince Edward Street as well as Pierre Dupin. He had delivered milk to the families on the street for thirty years. For the past fifteen years a large white horse named Joseph pulled his milk wagon. Joseph was a gentle horse with beautiful spirit shining out of its eyes, so Pierre named him after Saint Joseph.‎ Every morning at five, Pierre arrived at the milk company's stables to find Joseph waiting for him, Pierre would call, “Good morning, my old friend.”, as he climbed into his seat, while Joseph turned his head toward the driver. And the two would go proudly down the street. Without any order from Pierre, the wagon would roll down three streets. Then it turned right for two streets, before turning left to Saint Catherine Street. The horse finally stopped at the first house on Prince Edward Street. There, Joseph would wait perhaps thirty seconds for Pierre to get down off his seat and put a bottle of milk at the front door.‎ Pierre knew every one of the forty families that got milk. The cooks knew that Pierre could not read or write; so, instead of leaving orders in an empty milk bottle, they simply sang out if they needed an extra bottle.‎ Pierre also had a wonderful memory. When he arrived at the stable he always remembered to tell Jacques, the foreman(领班) of the stables, “The Pacquins took an extra bottle this morning; the Lemoines bought a pint of cream …” Most of the ‎ drivers had to make out the weekly bills and collect the money. But Jacques, liking Pierre, never asked him to do this.‎ One day the president of the milk company came to inspect the early morning milk deliveries.Jacques pointed to Pierre and said:“See how the horse listens and how he turns his head toward Pierre? See the look in that horse's eyes? You know, I think those two share a secret. I have often felt it. He is getting old. Maybe he ought to be given a rest, and a small pension.”‎ ‎“But of course,” the president laughed. “He has been on this job now for thirty years. All who know him love him. Tell him it is time he rested. He will get his pay every week as before.”‎ But Pierre refused to leave his job. He said his life would be nothing if he could not drive Joseph every day. “We are two old men,” he said to Jacques. “Let us wear out together. When Joseph is ready to leave, then I too will do so.”‎ Then one cold morning Jacques had terrible news for Pierre. Jacques said,“Pierre, your horse, Joseph, didn't wake up. He was very old, Pierre.” Jacques said softly. “He is over in his stall, looking very peaceful. Go over and see him.” Pierre took one step forward, then turned. “No … no … I cannot see Joseph again. You …, you don't understand, Jacques.”‎ For years Pierre had worn a large heavy cap that came down low over his eyes. It kept out the bitter cold wind. Now,Jacques looked into Pierre's eyes and he saw something that shocked him He saw a dead lifeless look in them.‎ ‎“Take the day off, Pierre,” Jacques said. Pierre walked to the corner and stepped into the street. There was a warning shout from the driver of a big truck … there was the screech(尖锐的刹车声) of rubber tires as the truck tried to stop. But Pierre heard nothing.‎ Five minutes later a doctor said, “He's dead …, killed instantly.”‎ ‎“I couldn't help it,” the truck driver said. “He walked in front of my truck. He never saw it, I guess. Why, he walked as though he were blind.”‎ The doctor bent down. “Blind?Of course, this man has been blind for five years.” He turned to Jacques, “Didn't you know he was blind?”‎ ‎“No …no …” Jacques said softly. “None of us knew. Only one … only one knew-a friend of his, named Joseph … It was a secret, I think, just between those two.”‎ ‎1. Why did Pierre refuse to leave his job?‎ A.

We don't do this often because of our tight budget.‎ ‎    I noticed a mom who was very tired in some kind of uniform come in with her three children, maybe about 4 or 5. She looked like she had just finished her work. She sat with them quietly taking care of all their need. Then I noticed, as soon as their food finally arrived, she took a bite of her food and then one of the kids had to go to the bathroom. They all left the table and she ushered them—so lovingly— especially after what may have been a long day at work.‎ ‎    I excused myself from the table and went quietly to the service counter. I handed the waitress $15 and said, “Can you put this anonymously to that mom of 3's bill? I hope it can cover at least the children's meals." The waitress had such a lovely smile and enthusiasm for this intention. I didn't stay long at the service counter as I didn't want anyone—even my own family—to know what was going on. I wanted it to be completely anonymous.‎ ‎    For the rest of my meal I did all I could not to put any more attention directly on that table as I didn't want her to suspect me of the act.‎ ‎    I thought about not sharing this story, but I feel like we are stealth, fierce—each other's candle holders and lighters—in our commitment to kindness, so it feels like I should share it with you. Thanks for reading and thanks for all you do to inspire my heart to expand in greater kindness and commitment to more and more random acts of kindness.

Through gaps(缝隙)of those ruins, the rescuers could see her last posture (姿势). It was something like an ancient person who was kowtowing (叩头), but it just looked strange because she was out of shape by pressure.   The rescuers confirmed (证明) her death by touching her through the gaps of the ruins. They shouted at the ruins again and again, knocked the bricks using various tools, but no reply inside. Then the rescuing team went to the next building. Suddenly the leader ran back, calling “Come here.” He came to the body, put his hands under the woman, feeling and touching, then shouted loudly and gladly, “There is someone, a baby, still living.” Through some efforts, rescuers cleaned up the ruins which blocked her. Under her body lay her baby, who was covered by a small red quilt (棉被). He was about 3 or 4 months old. Since well protected by his mother’s body, he was safe. He was in a deep sleep when the rescuer carried him out, and his lovely and peaceful face warmed everyone around him. The doctor, along with the rescuing team, took the baby out of the quilt to check if the baby was all right, and he found there was a mobile phone in the quilt. The doctor looked at the screen; a written message was already ‎ there: “My dear baby, if you could live, don’t forget how much I love you.” As a doctor, he experienced much of this type of separation; but at this moment, he cried. The mobile phone was passed, and every person who saw this message shed (流出) tears.  1.

Fourth grade is the time when your teacher reads books to you and you pretend not to like them一but there’s something about the way of someone's voice when he's reading aloud, which sounds as if the story exists a little bit more if it is just in your head, and as if we aren't reading a book, but having a conversation.‎ ‎    Love That Dog is about a kid named Jack. I remember he is the same age as the fourth-grade me and listening to his teacher read aloud to his class like the fourth-grade me. His class is working on a poetry unit, and he's not excited about it. They've got to take notes of what the teacher reads, and his first entry that ‎ says poetry is for girls. I won't summarize the whole book, but I'll tell you that Jack's last entry is different from the first.‎ ‎    I always wondered if he really existed and wanted to find him and talk to him. I didn't realize that I had already talked to him.‎ ‎    As a fourth grader, Love That Dog stood out to me because it was related. It,s about a young kid with a dog who isn't really into poetry, like me at the time. As Jack grew up, I felt myself growing with him. It was a shared experience, as if we had been in the same class reading poetry together.‎ ‎    A teacher once said, “Reading is like telepathy(心灵感应).” At the time, I thought he meant that you could understand the writer better by reading his works, but now I've realized it's a two-way street—the reader can feel understood, too, like the writer knows what his or her life is like. It’s a conversation. Writers write for the same reason that readers read for--to feel like they are not alone.‎ ‎    Everyone is looking forward to being understood, and I caught it in Love That Dog.‎ ‎1.When the teacher read Love That Dog to the class, the author ____________. A.didn’t like the story at first B.wanted to chat with the teacher C.preferred the story lo be read aloud D.thought there was something more in the story 2.What can we learn about Jack from Paragraph 3? A.He is interested in poetry. B.His entries are always the same. C.He is the same age as the fourth-grade author. D.He is in the same class as the author. 3.Why did the book Love That Dog leave a deep impression on the author? A.It reminded the author of himself. B.It made the author fall in love with poetry. C.The author got much experience of growing up from it. D.The author wanted to be a boy like the leading character in ‎ it. 4.In the authors opinion, writers produce their works with the purpose of _________. A.improving their telepathy B.being understood by readers C.describing different ways of life D.having quarrels with readers ‎7、What do you think of cats? Some people think very lovely. But not all people love cats. Compared with dogs, cats seem to be very lazy and unfriendly. Besides, cats are not known for acts of selflessness (无私). But maybe we’re wrong about them. Don’t believe it? Then meet Pippa, a very unusual cat.‎ The black-and-white cat was left in a box outside a shop and taken by the British RSPCA to the Jansa family in Whitstable, Kent. They really loved her character (性格) and decided to adopt (收养) it,but they never guessed she’d become a lifesaver.‎ Eight-year-old Mia Jansa had diabetes and had become good at testing her blood during the day, as well as having something to eat or drink to bring her blood sugar levels back. But the danger was at night. Mia could easily experience hypoglycemic (低血糖症的) situations when she was asleep, which could cause even death.‎ Soon after she was adopted, Pippa went into Mia’s bedroom in the middle of the night and woke her up. When the child tested her blood sugar levels, she found they were dangerously low. Ever since, Pippa always visits Mia at night. If she can’t get her to wake up, she raises the alarm.‎ ‎“Pippa does this of her own accord,” says Mia’s mother Laura. “We don’t make a request for caring because we don’t want to encourage wrong alarms. She gets plenty of hugs. It gives me peace of mind and I know someone else is keeping an eye on Mia.”‎ Now the family is so happy that they’ve chosen to adopt it in the first place.‎ ‎1.Why did the family decide to adopt the cat?‎ A. Because they considered it as a lifesaver.B. Because her character interested them.‎ C. Because they really loved her looks.D. Because Mia Jansa needed help.‎ ‎2.What problem did Mia Jansa face?‎ A. She was bad at testing her blood.B. She might suffer death in the daytime.‎ C. She might be in danger while asleep at night.‎ ‎ D. She couldn’t let her blood sugar levels return to normal.‎ ‎3.For what does Pippa visit Mia at night?‎ A. To see if her blood sugar levels are normal. B. To make her laugh when she’s lonely.‎ C. To make sure that she is safe. D. To play with the alarm.‎ ‎4.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 mean?‎ A. Pippa does that according to her own habits.B. Pippa does that without being asked.‎ C. Pippa does that for her own good.D. Pippa does that without a purpose.‎ ‎8、He met her at a party.She was so outstanding that many guys were chasing after her,while he was so ordinary.At the end of the party ,he invited her to have coffee with him.She was surprised but due tobeing polite,she promised.‎ They sat in a nice coffee shop,he was too nervous to say anything and she felt  uncomfortable,too.

His face turned red but still he put the salt in his coffee And drank it.She asked him curiously,"Why do you have this hobby?”He replied,‎ ‎"When I was a little boy,I lived near the sea,I liked playing in the sea,I could feel the taste of the sea,just like the taste of the salty coffee.Now every time I have the salty coffee,I always think of my childhood,my hometown,and my parents who are still living there"While saying that tears filled his eyes. She was deeply touched.Then she also started to speak,speaking about her faraway hometown,her childhood,and her family. ‎ That was a really nice talk also a beautiful beginning of their love.They continued to date.She found that actually he was a man who met all her demands.He had tolerance,kind-hearted warm and careful.Thanks to his salty coffee! They ‎ married.And,every time she made coffee for him,she put some salt in the coffee,as she knew that was the way he liked it.After 40 year she passed away and left her a letter which said,‎ ‎“My dearest,please forgive my whole life’s lie. Remember the first time we dated?I was so nervous at that time,actually I wanted some sugar,but said salt.It was hard for me to change so I just went ahead.I didn’t like the salty coffee then,what a strange bad taste!

As soon as he starts to draw a crowd, a zookeeper pulls him into ‎ his office. The zookeeper explains that the zoo’s most popular attraction, a gorilla, has died suddenly and the keeper fears that attendance at the zoo will fall off. He offers the mime a job to dress up as the gorilla, so the mime accepts.‎ ‎ The next morning the mime puts on the gorilla suit and enters the cage before the crowd comes.

Wanting to win back his audience, he climbs to the top of his cage, crawls across a partition(隔墙), and dangles(摇晃地悬挂着) from the top to the lion’s cage first. The lion gets angry at this.

She had requested the community to turn it into a museum upon her death. On a sunny Saturday, Sally and I drove over to the museum. She asked, "Do you have the address? ""No, but I'll recognize it, there was a picture in the magazine. "‎ ‎"Oh, stop. There it is!”‎ The museum was free. We entered, excited. A group of people sitting in the hall stopped talking and stared at us.‎ ‎"May I help you?" a man asked. "No, "I said. "We're fine.” Tour guides got on my nerves. What if they talked a long time about a painting you weren't that interested in? Sally had gone upstairs. The people in the hall seemed very nosy(爱窥探的), keeping their eyes on me with curiosity. What was their problem? I saw some nice sculptures in one room. Suddenly I sensed a man standing behind me. "Where do you think you are? " he asked. I turned sharply. "The Mckay Art Museum!" He smiled, shaking his head. "Sorry, the Mckay is on New Braunfels Street." "What’s this place?” I asked, still confused. "Well, it's our home." My heart jolted(震颤).
