2023高考阅读理解考前热身 （Day25）A（应用文）One of the best advantages of technological advancements is the fact that it has given us so much more freedom in the way we work. That so many jobs can be done remotely means you can travel and work from anywhere you want in the world. Here are some of the best cities to live and work in.Tallinn, EstoniaOften overlooked as a tourist destination, Tallinn has become known as Europe's next Silicon Valley. Not only that, it is absolutely amazing. The Old Town has been named as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is full of Gothic architecture and lots of historical landmarks.Budapest, HungaryBudapest is an ideal city for anyone who is crazy about wandering. It has a diverse culture, delicious and affordable food, and best of all, a low cost of living compared to other major cities. Its Neo-Renaissance architecture has made it one of Europe's most beautiful cities.Da Nang, VietnamUnlike large cities like Ho Chi Minh City or Hanoi, Da Nang's advantage is that it is still pretty unknown to many people. That means there are fewer tourists while still providing the same attractions of a big noisy city. Enjoy the most delicious food, buy fresh coconuts on the beach, and rent a motorbike and drive over Hai Van Pass.Lisbon, PortugalLisbon is becoming popular as a co-working community, and it's clear why so many flooded into this city. With 300 days of sunshine each year, unbelievable nightlife, and delicious food, there are certainly worthwhile places to spend your time at.

He decided to take his daughter along with him. She was only ten years old. This would be her first trip with her father on what he had always been famous for.Larry first began diving when he was his daughter’s age. Similarly, his father had taken him along on one of his expeditions. Since then, he had never looked back. Larry started out by renting diving suits from the small diving shop just along the shore. He had hated them. They were either too big or too small. Then, there was the instructor. He gave him a short lesson before allowing him into the water with his father. He had made an exception. Larry would never have been able to go down without at least five hours of theory and another similar number of hours on practical lessons with a guide. Children of his age were not even allowed to dive.After the first expedition, Larry’s later diving adventures only got better and better. There was never a dull moment. In his black and blue suit and with an oxygen tank fastened on his back, Larry dived from boats into the middle of the ocean. Dangerous areas did not prevent him from continuing his search. Sometimes, he was limited to a cage underwater but that did not bother him. At least, he was still able to take photographs of the underwater creatures.Larry’s first expedition without his father was in the Cayman Islands. There were numerous diving spots in the area and Larry was determined to visit all of them .Fortunately for him, a man offered to take him around the different spots for free. Larry didn’t even know what the time was, how many spots he dived into or how many photographs he had taken. The diving spots afforded such a wide range of fish and sea creatures that Larry saw more than thirty varieties of creatures.Larry looked at his daughter. She looked as excited as he had been when he was her age. He hoped she would be able to continue the family tradition. Already, she looked like she was much braver than had been then. This was the key to a successful underwater expedition.4．In what way was this expedition different for Larry?A．His daughter had grown up. B．He had become a famous diver.C．His father would dive with him. D．His daughter would dive with him.5．What can be inferred from Paragraph 2?A．Larry had some special right.B．Larry liked the rented diving suits.C．Divers had to buy diving equipment.D．Ten-year-old children were permitted to dive.6．What can be learned from the underlined sentence?A．Larry didn’t wear a watch. B．Larry was not good at math.C．Larry had a poor memory. D．Larry enjoyed the adventure.7．What did Larry expect his daughter to do?A．Become a successful diver. B．Make a good diving guide.C．Take a lot of photo underwater. D．Have longer hours of training.C（议论文）No business would welcome being compared to gambling (赌博)Yet that is what is happening to makers of video games. For years parents have complained that their children are “addicted” to their video games and smartphones. Today, however, even more doctors are using the term. On January I this year, “gaming disorder”—in which games are played uncontrollably, despite causing harm—gained recognition from the World Health Organization (WHO). Are games really addictive? Psychologists have different opinions. Those who don’t think so say that this is just another moral panic. Similar warnings have been given about television, rock’n’roll, jazz, comic books, novels and even crossword puzzles, but it turns out that they are not as harmful as expected. However, supporters argue that game developers have the motivation and the means to design their products to make them extremely attractive. For one thing. the business-model has changed. In the old days, games were bought once and for all. But these days, games are free and money is earned from purchases of in-game goods, which ties playtime directly to revenue (收益). For another, game-makers combine psychological theory and data, which helps them maximize the playtime. Smartphones and modern video game machines use their permanent Internet connections to send gameplay data back to developers. In this way products are constantly adjusted to encourage players’ spending. The biggest spenders are known as “whales”, a term that originated in casinos(赌场). The gaming industry should realize that, in the real world, it has a problem, and that problem is growing Now that gaming addiction comes with an official WHO recognition, diagnoses will become more common. Anyway, being put together with gambling in the public mind, fairly or not, will not do the industry any good.；8．What do we know from Paragraph 1?A．It is not suitable to compare video games to gamblingB．Parents complain about their children’s addiction to gamblingC．More doctors are against the use of the term “addicted”.D．Gaming addiction was officially recognized as a disease.；9．What does the underlined words “moral panic” in Paragraph 2 mean?A．Wrong judgment on how harmful something is.B．Trouble caused by someone’s immoral behavior.C．Unexpected social progress caused by science and technology.D．Panic due to the gap between the old and the young；10．What do games developers do to make games attractive?A．They don’t charge players for in-game goods.B．They adjust products based on received data.C．They keep players’ video game machines updated.D．They reward big spenders with a unique title.；11．In the last paragraph, the author aims to        .A．offer a suggestion B．make a predictionC．give a warning D．put forward a solutionA（说明文）Traditionally, profiting from forests often meant capitalizing on timber (木材)-choosing commercial timber. Yet increasingly, there is an understanding that it’s of greater significance to keep trees standing than cut them down for financial profit. Money is not everything. We have to recognize real and lasting value is from natural resources. But money is a fact of life.Good news is that we can expect entire natural woodland is left undamaged and still provides a revenue (收益) stream. Leaving woodland complete does not necessarily mean that we do not touch it at all. Conservation work may involve building back biodiversity or the removal of foreign plant species.A healthy woodland system can provide a range of yields (产物). Besides eatable yields-top fruit, berries, and food crops, it produces substances for chemical use. The non-timber forest products provided by natural ecosystems will vary significantly depending on where they are. But there’re almost always ways to explore to acquire revenue.A project in the U. K. shows woodland is also a draw for visitors. It engages a community who creates a sustainable area of woodland. The sale of handmade wooden items and non-timber forest products is involved. But the community largely obtains revenue by opening up parts of the natural woodland to the public with an adventure playground and outdoor recreational activities on the site. It also offers courses on nest building, special wildlife events and more. The project is thought to have great uniqueness. In terms of revenue, it centers round the existing natural land; the yields woodland can provide become side products.Recreational activities, tours, and classes are just the commencement. A rich and biodiverse woodland can be an ecosystem that draws in people looking for a beautiful place to stay. Woodland has great value in ecological and social terms. And when you nurse it, it could also add to the income from your land.；12．What do people increasingly think about forest conservation?A．It is difficult to carry out.B．It means making full use of timber.C．It outweighs financial development.D．It should centre on building back biodiversity.；13．Why is the project considered unique?A．It makes woodland itself the main product.B．It focuses on protecting natural land.C．It aims to promote ecotourism.D．It provides educational experiences.；14．What does the underlined word “commencement” mean in the last paragraph?A．Intention.B．Wish.C．Exception.D．Beginning.；15．Which is a suitable title for the text?A．Woodland Brings Profit While Staying CompleteB．A Project Creates Sustainable WoodlandC．Forest Conservation Has Been a Top PriorityD．Non-timber Products Help Gain More Revenue参考答案BBD DADA DABC CADA
