課時提能練(二十二).閱讀理解(2019廣東七校聯(lián)考)These days，I walk down the steps leading toward the south end of the All England Club in Wimbledon，and still look for the Crows Nest，a small green observation tower with an outer ladder that I used to climb on for a wide view of the grounds，but it has since been knocked down.The Crows Nest was a particularly useful point，because it allowed a tennis writer to keep track of the action on as many as 10 outside courts at a time.At the end of the days，reporters from different nations would share notes on what they had observed all over the grounds.Twentyseven years later，the press room has touch screens that allow us to watch live videos from any court，and even go back to watch key moments in key matches long after they have finished.You could cover Wimbledon without leaving your seat.But that is a bit like spending all your time ordering room service and looking up fun facts on Wikipedia.More than at any other tennis tournament，there is also an appetite for stories that deal with the setting，the history and the traditions.If they change the price of the fish tacos(魚肉卷餅) at the United States Open，its not a story.If they change the price of the strawberries and cream，the signature treat at Wimbledon，its time to email your editor using capital letters.The new retractable(可縮進的) roof was put in place in 2009.Until then，you always had to have a rainyday story in your notebook because there were no guarantees any matches would be played.Now tennis is a sure thing on Centre Court，which has made tennis reporters a bit less creative.But at least it guarantees us daily access to the most atmospheric place in the sport.So much has changed，but Centre Court remains true to its original spirit：more a theater than a stadium.Catching that feeling is part of covering Wimbledon，too.【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文。在溫布爾登的網(wǎng)球俱樂部，“我”曾經爬過的賽場樓梯被拆毀了；現(xiàn)在的記者室擁有觸摸屏，可以讓我們觀看任何球場的直播視頻。雖然發(fā)生了很多變化，但中心球場仍保持著初衷。捕捉這種感覺也是報道溫布爾登網(wǎng)球錦標賽的一部分。1What did the author do on the Crows Nest in the past?AHe made friends with reporters.BHe reported on tennis matches.CHe appreciated the beautiful scenery.DHe exchanged experiences with tennis players.B推理判斷題。通讀全文可推知，作者應是一名網(wǎng)球賽報道記者。根據(jù)第二段可知，過去Crows Nest是記者們觀察、記錄賽況的地方，每天結束時，來自不同國家的記者們會分享他們在現(xiàn)場觀察到的情況；結合第一段中的“and still look for the Crows Nest，a small green observation tower with an outer ladder that I used to climb on for a wide view of the grounds”可以判斷，作者曾經登上Crows Nest，報道網(wǎng)球賽的情況，故B項正確。2What does the author think of the new way of covering Wimbledon?AIt lacks fun.BIt is expensive.CIt is not convenient.DIt is not quick enough.A推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段最后兩句“You could cover Wimbledon without leaving your seat.But that is a bit like spending all your time ordering room service and looking up fun facts on Wikipedia”可知，你可以不用離開座位就能報道溫網(wǎng)，但這有點像把你所有的時間花在客房服務和在維基百科查找事實真相上；據(jù)此可以判斷，作者認為如今的報道溫網(wǎng)的方式缺乏趣味，故A項正確。3Why does the author mention strawberries and cream?ATo compare popular foods.BTo introduce the typical treat at Wimbledon.CTo describe peoples craze for traditional dishes.DTo show the traditions of Wimbledon are an attraction.D推理判斷題。根據(jù)第四段“More than at any other tennis tournament，there is also an appetite for stories that deal with the setting，the history and the traditions”可知，與任何其他網(wǎng)球錦標賽相比，人們也關注講述有關溫網(wǎng)背景、歷史和傳統(tǒng)的故事，接著第五段提到美網(wǎng)上的魚肉卷餅價格改變不會成為新聞而溫網(wǎng)的特色食物草莓和奶油價格改變則需要重點向主編報告；據(jù)此可推知，提及溫網(wǎng)的草莓和奶油旨在展示溫網(wǎng)的傳統(tǒng)是一個吸引點。故D項正確。4What difference does the new roof make?AAudiences have easier access to a tennis court.BTheres less fun in watching Wimbledon indoors.CReporters are struggling to find original material.DRainyday stories about Wimbledon have become history.D細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第六段第一、二句“The new retractable(可縮進的) roof was put in place in 2009.Until then，you always had to have a rainyday story in your notebook because there were no guarantees any matches would be played”可知，2009年裝上了新型的可縮進屋頂，在那之前，因為不能確保所有的溫網(wǎng)比賽都能舉行，記者們得準備好一個應急報道；據(jù)此可知，新屋頂讓溫網(wǎng)的“應急報道”成為歷史，故D項正確。.閱讀七選五(2019甘肅省重點中學聯(lián)考)Coming facetoface with your inadequacies(缺點) can be painful，to say the least._1_ It even makes you question yourself.Your kneejerk reaction may be to get defensive or even dismiss the critique entirely.But handling negative feedback with grace will not only make you look gracious，but it could ultimately help you grow as a person.Heres how to do it.1Be objective about the criticismBefore you jump to conclusions and begin to challenge the other persons opinion，take a step back and look at it objectively.Next time you get a bad review，dont immediately allow your emotions to get the better of you，but rather，take a moment to consider whether the criticism is at all accurate._2_2Avoid unnecessary conflictIf you decide that the point is valid，it may be hard to take.In your discomfort，you may feel the urge to criticize the other person angrily and defend yourself._3_3Be open to the idea of change_4_ And it may be because of a concept called“cognitive dissonance”that can prevent us from changing even when thats what we need most.4Ask questionsIf youre open to using the criticism as a springboard to improvement，you will likely need more information._5_ Your emotions will be running high，and you may not be particularly receptive to extra information.However，when you feel ready，it could be worth revisiting the subject with the person who criticized you.Even if you dont agree with their advice，thank them and promise to consider it.AMost of us are pretty stubborn.BThere is no doubt that change is necessary.CBut its best to avoid getting into an argument.DBeing sensitive to criticism leads you nowhere.EIt challenges the way you believe people see you.FGive yourself a chance to really take in the information and evaluate it.GThe initial moment you hear it may not be the best time to ask for more details.【語篇解讀】聽到別人對你的批評也許會很痛苦，但是如果優(yōu)雅地處理這些問題，自己將變得更好。1E根據(jù)空后一句話可知，空處與下一句是遞進關系，E項“這會挑戰(zhàn)你認為別人看待你的方式”，所以E項符合語境。2F根據(jù)空前“dont immediately allow your emotions to get the better of you，but rather，take a moment to consider whether the criticism is at all accurate”可知，空處應講給自己一個機會真正吸收這些信息并對其進行評估。故F項符合語境。3C根據(jù)該段小標題“Avoid unnecessary conflict”可知，C項“但是最好避免陷入爭吵”符合語境。4A根據(jù)空后的“And it may be because of a concept calledcognitive dissonance that can prevent us from changing even when thats what we need most”及本段小標題可知，A項“我們大部分人都很倔強”符合語境。5G根據(jù)空后的“Your emotions will be running high，and you may not be particularly receptive to extra information”并結合上文可知，空處應講最開始聽到批評時不適合問更多的細節(jié)，故G項符合語境。.語法填空(2019南昌模擬)In August I spent two weeks working at the Sauraha day care center.I found

difference是固定搭配，表示“有作用，有影響”。2timetables考查名詞復數(shù)。此處表示“更改之前所有的時間安排”，timetable是可數(shù)名詞并結合空前的“all”可知，空處應填其復數(shù)形式。3which考查定語從句。分析句子結構可知，空處引導非限制性定語從句，先行詞是the culture of the festival，指物，且從句缺少賓語，故填which。4During考查介詞?？蘸蟮膕tay是名詞，意為“停留，逗留”，在stay等表示行為要持續(xù)一段時間的名詞之前，常用during而不用in。during表示“在期間”。5to watch考查非謂語動詞。“be形容詞enoughto do sth.”是常用結構，表示“足夠做某事”，其中不定式短語作狀語。6a考查冠詞。此處表示“其他各種各樣的野生鳥類和動物”。a variety of“各種各樣的”為固定搭配。7myself考查反身代詞。that引導的從句中主語是I，taking good care of的賓語指的就是主語I，故此處要用I的反身代詞myself。8was greeted考查動詞的時態(tài)和語態(tài)。此處表示“當我第一次到達尼泊爾并受到員工歡迎的時候”，描述過去發(fā)生的事情要用一般過去時。I與greet之間是被動關系，故用一般過去時的被動語態(tài)。9assisting考查非謂語動詞。be devoted to doing sth.是固定搭配，表示“致力于做某事”，其中to是介詞，后接名詞、代詞或動名詞作賓語。10hopefully考查副詞。修飾形容詞、副詞、動詞時應用副詞。hopefully“懷有希望地”。.短文改錯(2019廣州檢測)The summer job is a tradition among American university students.Long after the end of the
