　　训练(三)

　　Ⅰ.阅读理解(共两节)

　　第一节　阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。

　　(2024·高考重庆卷) There are many places to go on safari(观赏野生动物) in Africa，but riding a horse through the flooded waters of Botswana's Okavango Delta must rank as one of the world's most exciting wildlife journeys.

　　Several safari camps operate as the base for this adventure，providing unique rides twice a day to explore deep into the delta.The camps have excellent horses，professional guides and lots of support workers.They have a reputation for providing a great riding experience.

　　The morning ride，when the guides take you to beautiful，shallow lakes full of water lilies，tends to be more active.It is unlike any other riding experience.With rainbows forming in the splashing water around you and the sound of huge drops of water bouncing off your body and face，it is truly exciting.You are very likely to come across large wild animals，too.On horseback it is possible to get quite close to elephants，giraffes and many other animals.The sense of excitement and tension levels rise suddenly though，as does your heart rate，as you move closer to them.

　　In the evening，rides are usually at a more relaxed and unhurried pace，with golden light streaming across the grassy delta

　　and the animals coming out to eat and drink，sedate though they are，rides at this time of day are still very impressive.As the sun's rays pass through the dust kicked up by the horses，the romance of Africa comes to life.

　　Back at the camp you can kick off your boots and enjoy excellent food and wine.Looking back on your day，you will find it hard to deny that a horseback safari is as close as you will ever come to answering the call of the wild.

　　【解题导语】　旅游的方式有很多种，本文介绍的这种旅游方式非常独特。你能想象在非洲有野生动物出没的地方，你骑在马背上靠近观赏是什么样子吗？让我们跟随作者来一起领略这非凡难忘的大自然的野性之美吧。

　　1．What does the underlined word “They” refer to?

　　A．Flooded waters. B．Wildlife journeys.

　　C．Safari camps. D．Unique rides.

　　解析：选C。代词指代题。做代词指代题时一般应该从前文查找答案，画线代词所在句子与其前一句是并列的，前一个句子的主语是the camps，而the camps指前面提到的safari camps，故应该选择C项。

　　2．What does the author find most exciting about a horseback safari?

　　A．Seeing and feeling the real African life.

　　B．Enjoying good food and wine at the camp.

　　C．Hunting large animals just as our ancestors did.

　　D．Being part of the scene and getting close to animals.

　　解析：选D。细节理解题。根据第三段第三句With rainbows forming in the splashing water around you...和最后一句The sense of excitement and tension levels rise suddenly though，as does your heart rate，as you move closer to them.可知，作者发现骑马观赏野生动物最令人兴奋的是可以成为风景的一部分，并且可以近距离地观察那些野生动物。

　　3．What does the underlined word “sedate” probably mean?

　　A．Wild and romantic. B．Slow and peaceful.

　　C．Hungry and thirsty. D．Active and excited.

　　$来&源：gkxx.com解析：选B。词义猜测题。画线词所在句子的句意为“虽然它们很

　　，但是在一天的这个时候骑马观赏仍然是令人印象很深刻的”。根据猜测词义题可以从与所猜词语邻近的词语或句子寻找依据的原则，由前一句中的a more relaxed and unhurried pace(更加放松、不匆忙的步伐)可知选B。

　　4．The author introduces the riding experience in the Okavango Delta mainly by

　　A．following space order B．following time order

　　C．making classifications D．giving examples

　　解析：选B。推理判断题。A项意为“按空间顺序”，B项意为“按时间顺序”，C项意为“归类”，D项意为“举例”。根据文中出现的the morning ride，in the evening，at this time of day 和looking back on your day可知，文章是按时间顺序进行描写的，所以选B项。

　　学习网第二节　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。

　　Make the right choices

　　What is life’s greatest gift？1.

　　Choice is the ability to select one course of action from a set of alternatives to achieve a goal. What is so great about choice？It transforms us from dumb animals into artists.Each of us becomes another Michelangelo.Choice becomes nothing other than the tool we use to sculpt (雕刻) our life.The tool doesn’t come free，however，for the price of choice is responsibility.2.

　　The reward is happiness.

　　Life is not still.It is a flow.3.

　　We constantly need to monitor where we are on our journey.We need to ask questions：Am I moving closer to my goals？If not，what corrective measures can I take？What action will I take now to readjust myself to my goals？Choice is power.Choice is at the heart of life.It is the creative power of life.

　　4．

　　And your life becomes more convenient or comfortable because of them.For example，you decide which stores to shop at and which gas station to go to.But the decisions that we make to sculpt our life are far more important than deciding where to shop.The more we appreciate the difference between minor and major decisions，the greater the probability that we will experience happiness and fulfillment.

　　All chess lovers realize that it isn’t necessary to win to enjoy the game.The pleasure is in the playing.Life is like a chess game.5.

　　A．It is free will or choice.

　　B．You have to make choices every day.

　　初中学习网F．Life is full of hard choices，and the bigger they are，the harder they get.

　　G．Choose to carry out responsibilities not because you have to，but because you want to.

　　【解题导语】　每个人每天都要面临各种各样的选择。正确的选择究竟会给我们的人生带来什么呢？

　　1．解析：选A。根据上文的提问“生命中最好的礼物是什么？”及后一句中的主语Choice可知选A。it指代life’s greatest gift，即生命中最珍贵的礼物是自由意志或者说是选择。

　　2．解析：选D。选项D中a great return与下文The reward前后照应，即当我们接受并执行它时，我们就获得了巨大的回报。这种回报就是幸福。

　　3．解析：选E。根据下文所提的三个问题可知该段在谈论选择对人生目标的影响，故E项为正确答案，即我们所做的每一个选择让我们更接近或者更远离我们的目标。

　　4．解析：选B。根据下文可知，无论是日常生活中的小事，还是涉及人生的大事，都离不开选择。故B项“你每天都不得不作出选择”符合文意。

　　5．解析：选C。由空前的“Life is like a chess game.”可知C项中的“moves(棋子的移动)”与之照应。

　　Ⅱ.完形填空

　　阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项中选出最佳选项。

　　We often see hitchhikers (搭便车的人)，standing by the side of the road，thumb sticking out，waiting for a lift.But it is getting

　　nowadays.What killed hitchhiking？

　　is often mentioned as a reason.Movies about murderous hitchhikers and reallife crime

　　many drivers off picking up hitchhikers.

　　no single women picked me up on my journey to Manchester

　　reflects the safety fear：

　　strangely dressed man is seen as dangerous.

　　But the reason may be

　　complex：hitchhiking happens where people don’t have cars and transport services are

　　.Plenty of people

　　hitchhike in Poland and Romania.Perhaps the rising level of car ownership in the UK means the few people lift hitchhiking are usually considered strange.Why can’t they

　　cars? Why can’t they take the coach or the train?

　　Threequarters of the UK population have

　　a car；many of the

　　will be quite old.The potential hitchhiking population is therefore small.

　　my trip proves it’s still possible to hitchhike.The people who picked me up were very interesting lawyer，retired surgeon，tank commander，carpenter，man who live in an isolated farmhouse and a couple

　　in the mountains.My conclusion is that only really interesting people are mad enough to pick up fat blokes (家伙) in red，spotted scarves.Most just wanted to do someone a good turn；a few said they were so surprised to see a hitchhiker that they couldn’t help

　　The future of hitchhiking most

　　lies with carsharing organized over the Internet，via sites such as hitchhikers.org.But for now，you can still stick your thumb out (actually，I didn’t do much of that，

　　just to hold up my destination sign) and people—wonderful，caring，sharing，unafraid people—will stop.

　　In the UK，with its cheap

　　and reasonable rail service，I don’t think I’ll make a habit of it.But having enjoyed it so much，I’m ready now to do a big trip

　　Europe and beyond.In the 1970s a female friend of my wife’s hitchhiked to India.How wonderful it would be to have another go，

　　Afghanistan might be a challenge.I wish I’d got that tank commander’s mobile number.
