　　高考题型提能练(十九)　Unit 19

　　Ⅰ.阅读理解

　　A

　　I sat with a friend a few weeks ago as she scrolled through photos of her college freshman daughter on her phone. She asked me, “Doesn't she look happy? She looks OK, right？” Her daughter had recently had a difficult time, which was now over, but her mother — like all mothers would — still worried, sometimes, that something might be wrong.

　　For generations of parents, sending children off to college meant knowing little to nothing about how their children were doing. Other than the occasional letter or call from a dorm room phone, children who had left home were mostly unseen and heard from infrequently. College kids could get into all kinds of trouble and their parents would know nothing about it until Christmas vacation or summer break.

　　Now, of course, that's not at all how it is. Parents of college students can spend hour upon hour examining photos on Instagram or Facebook of their children. They look for hints of sadness in their eyes, the way their clothes fit, whether they're really smiling or just sort of smiling.

　　However, I don't think it's necessary. College is a time of intense personal growth. Pain is a necessary lesson for the emotional leap from childhood to adulthood. Mothers shouldn't be able to see photos in real time that capture their children when they're at their worst — whether because of too much alcohol or too little happiness.

　　The blessing of social media is the ability to connect at any time with your child, no matter where he or she may be in the world. Facebook, Instagram and the rest are keeping our helicopters flying long after they should have landed. Maybe it would be better for all of us to be a little less aware of the state of our children's lives once they leave home. Better for the children, and certainly better for the parents.

　　1.That friend scrolled through photos on her phone most probably because she

　　________.

　　A.was bored and wanted to kill the time

　　B.wanted to make sure her daughter was alright

　　C.wanted to help her daughter through the difficulty

　　D.was sure something was wrong with her daughter

　　2.What does Paragraph 2 tell us about parents of college students in the past?

　　A.They were often worried about their children.

　　B.They usually let their children do whatever they liked.

　　C.They were usually too busy to care about their children.

　　D.They lacked means of knowing about their children's situation.

　　3.What does the writer think of children's experiencing pain at college?

　　A.It is helpless.B.It is necessary.

　　C.It is nonsense.

　　D.It should be prevented.

　　4.The passage is written to show that

　　________.

　　A.children don't really have freedom at college

　　B.social media make our life much easier than before

　　C.today's parents contact their children more frequently

　　D.parents shouldn't follow their children at college through social media

　　B

　　People in several American states may be surprised to see cars on city streets without a driver. Experimental driverless vehicles now are legal in Florida, Nevada and California. They are pointing the way to a future that is not far down the road. The high

　　tech company Google has a number of self­driving cars, which had covered 480,000 kilometers by August. Volvo is among the companies doing road tests and says it plans to sell driverless cars by 2024.

　　In September, California Governor Jerry Brown signed an act to allow autonomous vehicles on the roads of his state. “Today we're looking at science fiction becoming tomorrow's reality — the driverless car.” The technology for these cars includes cameras, radar and motion sensors. The systems have been improved through competitions sponsored by the U. S. government agency DARPA. Engineer Richard Mason of the Rand Corporation helped design driverless vehicles for DARPA challenge races.

　　Cars have become much more fuel­efficient, and new electronic features are

　　making Hondas safer, said Angie Nucci of Honda America.

　　“A camera on the passenger­side mirror actually engaged on your guiding screen so you can safely change lanes.” Other safety features include warning systems on the front and the sides of the cars.

　　These systems help drivers,

　　but don't replace them. Curator Leslie Kendall of the Petersen Automotive Museum said autonomous cars will make the high ways safer.

　　“By taking out drivers, you also remove most risks of an accident，” Kendall said. He said,

　　“Consumers, however, may be unwilling to lose control. It may take them time to come to realize that the technology is indeed reliable, but it will have to prove itself first.”

　　Mason said the technology already works and the biggest challenge now is getting down the cost for driverless vehicles from hundreds of thousands of dollars to something more affordable. He said this will happen as the technology is improved.

　　5.According to the passage, California Governor Jerry Brown ________.

　　A.is for the idea of having driverless cars

　　B.sponsored the DARPA competition to improve the driverless system

　　C.has already bought a new autonomous car

　　D.thinks that driving safety is the most important issue in his state

　　6.What is the role of the systems mentioned in Paragraph 3?

　　A.They can help cars run much faster.

　　B.They can take the place of drivers now.

　　C.They can make cars run without fuel.

　　D.They can help people drive more safely.

　　7.In Kendall's opinion, who probably don't rely on the driverless cars at first?

　　A.Managers in the high tech company Google.

　　B.Officers from the U. S. government agency DARPA.

　　C.Car consumers.

　　D.Vehicle designers.

　　8.According to Richard Mason, what is the biggest challenge for driverless cars?

　　A.They need to have more comfortable seats.

　　B.They are now too expensive for consumers.

　　C.They are travelling at a low speed.

　　D.They are not favored by car racers.

　　C

　　One afternoon last week, I saw three tearful children from my son's school being comforted by teachers.That morning, my 11­year­old son had stomach pains, retching (干呕) into a bowl.Talking to other mothers later, I heard about other children with stomachache or difficulty sleeping the night before.

　　What caused so much pain？Sports day.Sports day might be necessary at a highly­competitive independent school, but not at a village primary school.For the children who can fly like the wind, sports day causes no problem.For those who are overweight or just not good at sport, it is a nightmare (噩梦).Even for those who enjoy running but fall halfway down the track in front of the entire school and their parents, it can prove a disaster.

　　Why do we put our children through this annual suffering？Some may say competition is character building; or it's taking part, not winning, that's important；or that it is a tradition of school life.I just felt great pity for those children in tears or in pain.

　　Team games at the end of sports day produced some close races, wild enthusiasm, lots of shouting — and were fun to watch.More importantly, the children who were not so fast or quick at passing the ball were hidden a little from everyone's eyes.Some of them also had the thrill of being on the winning side.

　　I wish that sports day could be abandoned and replaced with some other less­competitive event.Perhaps an afternoon of team games, with a few races for those who want them, would be less stressful for the children and a lot more fun to watch.

　　9.What can we learn about the author's son from Paragraph 1?

　　A.He talked with some mothers.

　　B.He comforted his classmates.

　　C.He had difficulty in sleeping.

　　D.He suffered from stomachache.

　　10.Sports day is still an annual event in this school probably because________.

　　A.this is an independent school

　　B.it is a tradition of the school

　　C.it helps children lose weight

　　D.children enjoy watching sports

　　11.What does the author think about team games?

　　A.They should include more stressful races.

　　B.They are acceptable to different children.

　　C.They should be abandoned at primary schools.

　　D.They are less fun for those who love running.

　　12.What is the author's attitude towards sports day?

　　A.Critical.　

　　B.Neutral.

　　C.Positive.

　　D.Ambiguous.
