Notre-Dame de Paris, a cathedral church in Paris, is the most famous of the Gothic cathedrals of the Middle Ages. For the French, it represents something immortal, ever-present and unchanging, like a mountain. Built over almost two centuries, the Notre-Dame is, as President Emmanuel Macron said, “where the French lived all their great moments”. Soldiers prayed here before leaving for the Crusades; Napoleon Bonaparte was crowned here; it survived the French Revolution, two World Wars and the Nazi occupation. It is where men bend their knees to profess love and thousands of tourists take photos every day.
A fire, whose cause was not identified yet, engulfed (吞没), on April 15th, the cathedral's upper structure. More than 400 firefighters took part in the 15-hour battle to control the blaze (火苗) that triggered sorrow over the globe. The extent of the damage is still unknown, but the fire destroyed much of the gothic cathedral’s wood-timbered roof and spire (塔尖). The cathedral will certainly be restored (the French government promises), but the sight of flames bringing down the spire moved the world in a manner far exceeding its religious significance.
French Culture Minister Franck Riester on Thursday said the government would draw all the consequences from the huge flames that destroyed the centuries-old Notre Dame Cathedral, adding measures to protect the national heritage were on the table. “Staff from the fire department, the culture ministry and the city town hall rushed to the Cathedral, when the fire started, to protect the main artworks that were inside. The artworks, which include relics such as the Christ's crown of thorns and French king Saint-Louis's 13th century tunic, were first moved to the city town hall and will now be transferred to the nearby Louvre Museum .” the minister told Le Parisian newspaper in an interview without giving details on the possible measures.
1. What can we learn about the Notre-Dame de Paris?
A. It is the most well-known cathedral. B. Most of the French think little of it.
C. It was built by Napoleon Bonaparte. D. It’s still in existence after two World Wars.
2. What is true about the Cathedral in the accident?
A. Only the spire was brought down by the flames.
B. It was completely burnt in the fire.
C. The gilded crown of thorns in it was gone forever.
D. The cause of the accident to the Cathedral was still unknown.
3. According to Franck Riester, what has already done by the government?
A. Rebuild the cathedral.
B. Rescue the artworks inside the cathedral.
C. Transfer the relics to the nearby Louvre Museum.
D. Release the cause of the fire to the public.
【答案】1. D 2. D 3. B
【解析】
这是一篇说明文。巴黎圣母院是巴黎的一座大教堂，是中世纪最著名的哥特式教堂。但在2019年4月15日，一场尚未查明原因的大火吞没了大教堂的上部结构。400名消防员参加了长达15个小时的灭火战斗，损坏的程度还不清楚，但大火烧毁了这座哥特式大教堂的大部分木质屋顶和塔尖。这场火灾引发了全球的悲痛。但法国政府也努力抢救出了圣母院中的一些艺术品。

Sandra Cisneros was born in Chicago in 1954 to a Mexican American family. As the only girl in a family of seven children, she often felt like she had “seven fathers,” because her six brothers, as well as her father, tried to control her. Feeling shy and unimportant, she retreated (躲避) into books. Despite her love of reading, she did not do well in elementary school because she was too shy to participate.
In high school, with the encouragement of one particular teacher, Cisneros improved her grades and worked for the school literary magazine. Her father encouraged her to go to college because he thought it would be a good way for her to find a husband. Cisneros did attend college, but instead of searching for a husband, she found a teacher who helped her join the famous graduate writing program at the University of Iowa. At the university’s Writers’ Workshop, however, she felt lonely — a Mexican American from a poor neighborhood among students from wealthy families. The feeling of being so different helped Cisneros find her “creative voice”.
“It was not until this moment when I considered myself truly different that my writing acquired a voice. I knew I was a Mexican woman, but I didn’t think it had anything to do with why I felt so much imbalance in my life, but it had everything to do with it! That’s when I decided I would write about something my classmates couldn’t write about.”
Cisneros published her first work, The House on Mango Street, when she was twenty-nine. The book talks about a young Mexican American girl growing up in a Spanish-speaking area in Chicago, much like the neighborhoods in which Cisneros lived as a child. The book won an award in 1985 and has been used in classes from high school to graduate school level. Since then, Cisneros has published several books of poetry, a children’s book and a short-story collection.
4. What can we know about Cisneros in her childhood?
A. Her brothers disliked her.
B. She felt herself a nobody.
C. She was too shy to go to school.
D. She did not meet any good teachers.
5. The graduate program gave Cisneros a chance to ________.
A. run away from her family B. develop her writing style
C. make a lot of friends D. search for a husband
6. According to Cisneros, what was the key factor in her success?
A. Her childhood experience.
B. Her training in the Workshop.
C. Her feeling of being different.
D. Her early years in college.
7. What do we learn about The House on Mango Street?
A. It enjoys great popularity among students.
B. It is a book of poetry written by Cisneros.
C. It wasn’t a success as it was written in Spanish.
D. It won an award when Cisneros was twenty-nine.
【答案】4. B 5. B 6. C 7. A
【解析】

【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的Feeling shy and unimportant, she retreated (躲避) into books.可知，她感到害羞和不重要，就躲进了书堆里。由此可知，B选项的描述“她觉得自己是个无名小卒”符合文意。故选B。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的The feeling of being so different helped Cisneros find her “creative voice”.可知，这种与众不同的感觉帮助西斯内罗斯找到了她的“创造性声音”。由此推断出，研究生课程给了Cisneros一个发展写作风格的机会。故选B。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中It was not until this moment when I considered myself truly different that my writing acquired a voice.可知，直到这一刻，当我认为自己真的与众不同时，我的写作才有了声音。由此可知，根据Cisneros的说法，她成功的关键因素是她与众不同的感觉。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的The book won an award in 1985 and has been used in classes from high school to graduate school level.可知，这本书在1985年获得了一个奖项，从高中到研究生阶段都在使用。由此推断出，The House on Mango Street在学生中很受欢迎。故选A。
C
Recently, a scientist did some experiments. He left a group of 4-year-olds in a room with a bell and a candy. If they rang the bell, he would come back and they could eat the candy. If, however, they didn’t ring the bell and waited for him to come back on his own, they could then have two candies.
In the videos of the experiments, he can see the children hiding their eyes, trying to exercise self-control so they can wait and get two candies. The results are different. Some broke down and rang the bell within a minute. Others lasted 15 minutes.
The children who waited longer went on to get higher academic scores. They got into better colleges and had better adult success. The children who rang the bell quickest were more likely to have received worse teacher and parental evaluations (评价) 10 years later and were more likely to have drug problems at age 32.
The experiments are worth noting because people spend a lot of time thinking about how to improve education, and how to become rich. But when the result is not good, they will come back to ask “How do we get people to get the sort of self-control that leads to success?” This is to enter the world of human nature.
So these experiments, along with everyday experience, tell us that self-control is most important. Young people who can sit through sometimes boring classes to get a degree can work hard in order to learn a language well. They can avoid drugs and alcohol. For people without self-control skills, however, school is a series of failed and painful experience. No wonder they drop out and their later life is a group of foolish ideas, such as drug use, stealing and so on.
8. The scientist did some experiments to ________.
A. find good ways of training children to learn
B. show that children’s education is important
C. test children’s self-control and later success
D. test children’s intelligence of ringing the bell
9. What do the underlined words “broke down” probably mean?
A. failed to wait. B. kept waiting.
C. hid the candy. D. ate the candy.
10. How long did the scientist’s experiments last according to the text?
A. Just 15 minutes. B. Within 10 years.
C. Less than 14 years. D. About 28 years.
11. What will the children without self-control do at school according to the text?
A. They will improve their education.
B. They will suffer a lot from boring lessons.
C. They will become very rich and successful.
D. They will work hard to catch up with others.
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【分析】
本文属于说明文，讲述了自控力和未来成功的关系，实验表明自控力强的人以后成功的机会更大。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。由第三段“The children who waited longer went on to get higher SAT scores. They got into better colleges and had better adult success.”可知，等待的时间越长的孩子SAT分数越高，长大后会进入更好的大学，获得更好的成功，故可知实验的目的在于探索孩子自律和成功之间的关系，故选C。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段The results are different. Some broke down and rang the bell within a minute. Others lasted 15 minutes.可知，结果是不一样的，有些孩子在一分钟内摇响铃声，而另外一些孩子坚持了15分钟，故可知对两类孩子进行了对比，故可以推出break down为崩溃，无法再坚持，故选A。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段He left a group of 4-year-olds in a room with a bell and a candy.以及第三段“The children who rang the bell quickest were more likely to have received worse teacher and parental evaluations(评价)10 years later and were more likely to have drug problems at age 32.”可知，开始做实验是孩子4岁的时候，最后与32岁的时候结束，故可知，实验持续了28年，故选D项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“For people without self-control skills, however, school is a series of failed ordeals(煎熬).”可推知，缺乏自律的孩子，学业对于他们来说就是连续的煎熬，故选B。
【点睛】词义猜测题
词义猜测题是高考阅读理解中常考题型之一，可以大致分为①定义猜词，可以根据定义信息和举例猜测词义。如文中常用refer to，be called或that’s to say，such as等。②逻辑猜词可以根据同义词、反义词、因果关系词等猜测词义，例如，similarly,the same as,but,however,while,on the other hand,since ,because等，所猜词与这些提示词前/后面部分的含义一样、相反或是前因后果。③语法猜词，可以根据构词法，再结合上下文进行猜词。④语境猜词，猜测词义离不开上下文的语境，通过上下文提供的情景和线索进行合理的分析，同时还要关注其所在的整段及整篇文章。⑤指代猜词即找出人称代词、指示代词、关系代词或关系副词等所指代的内容，做题时要注意指代词的位置，以便于判断，然后用所找的指代内容替换划线代词，核实其逻辑、意义、位置等是否一致，最后比较所找部分与选项，确定意思最接近的选项。比如小题2，根据第二段The results are different. Some broke down and rang the bell within a minute. Others lasted 15 minutes.可知，结果是不一样的，有些孩子在一分钟内摇响铃声，而另外一些孩子坚持了15分钟，故可知对两类孩子进行了对比，故可以推出break down为崩溃，无法再坚持，故选A。
D
If you have never ever heard of pawpaw，you are not alone. Most Americans do not know of the fruit，although it is native to the United States. Once，however，it was one of the most popular fruits in North America. Happily，those who love the pawpaw are trying to return it to its former position in American foods.
The pawpaw is a kind of fruit that grows on trees found all over the eastern United States. It is similar in size to a typical mango. It has a dull green-colored skin，and a soft，almost creamy orange inside. Most people agree that the pawpaw tastes like a combination of bananas，apricots （杏）and mangos. Most people are very surprised by its sweet taste. The fruit has a very short harvest season，from two to three weeks in September and October.
The pawpaw has never been sold commercially. The fruit requires a very special environment-low，wet areas that sometimes flood. In addition，the fruit is good to eat for only two to three days after harvesting. This makes it hard to sell anywhere distant from the pawpaw trees.
Planters are again growing pawpaw trees and harvesting the fruit. In several states farmers have organized “pawpaw festivals” to reintroduce the food to people.
Farmers are trying to grow different kinds of paw paws that will be easier to ship and sell commercially. Donna and Jim Davis are pawpaw farmers in Westminster，Maryland. They told National Public Radio that they purchased their pawpaw trees in the 1990s and now sell the fruit at farmer markets and online.
So, who knows? Maybe the pawpaw will show up soon at a market near you.
12. What is the pawpaw's most outstanding nature?
A. It grows on trees all over the US.
B. Its sour taste is like an apricot.
C. It looks like a combination of bananas and mangos.
D. It is very rich in sugar.
13. Why is it difficult for the pawpaw to become a big business?
A. It has to be sold far from the pawpaw tree.
B. It is difficult to harvest in the low and wet areas.
C. It is hard to keep its freshness for long.
D. It needs expensive transportation to the market.
14. What do farmers do to deal with the disadvantage of paw paws?
A. They advertise on National Public Radio.
B. They plant improved pawpaw trees.
C. They organize pawpaw festivals.
D. They sell the fruit at farmer markets.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. A forgotten American fruit is becoming popular again.
B. Fruit of pawpaw plays an important part in America.
C. Most people have hardly eaten fresh paw paws.
D. A traditional fruit has changed people's diet.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. A
【解析】
本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了一种水果——木瓜。它是一种被遗忘的再次流行起来的美国水果。
12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中Most people are very surprised by its sweet taste.可知，木瓜最突出的特性是“它含糖量很高。”故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中the fruit is good to eat for only two to three days after harvesting. This makes it hard to sell anywhere distant from the pawpaw trees.“这种水果在收获后的两到三天就可以吃了。这使得它很难卖到离木瓜树很远的地方。”可知，木瓜之所以很难成为一个大企业，是因为长时间保持新鲜是很难的。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段第一句Farmers are trying to grow different kinds of paw paws that will be easier to ship and sell commercially.“农民们正在尝试种植不同种类的木瓜，以便于运输和商业销售。”可知，农民通过他们种植改良的木瓜树来处理木瓜的缺点。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中If you have never ever heard of pawpaw，you are not alone. Most Americans do not know of the fruit，although it is native to the United States. Once，however，it was one of the most popular fruits in North America.“如果你从来没有听说过木瓜,你并不孤单。大多数美国人都不知道这种水果,虽然它原产于美国。然而,曾经它是北美最受欢迎的水果之一。”可知，本文主题是“一种被遗忘的美国水果再次流行起来。”故选A。

这是一篇说明文。短文主要向读者介绍几种经济的家庭娱乐的方法。
【16题详解】
由“ When you're on a budget, it can be tough to think of ways to entertain the family that don't cost a lot of money.”可知，当你在精打细算的时候，很难想出不花很多钱就能让家人开心的方法以及下文的小标题。所以小题1是一个承上启下的过渡句来引出下面几个标题。故G选项“幸运的是，如果你知道去哪里找，这里有很多选择可供参考”。符合句意。故G选项切题。
【17题详解】
由“ Most libraries have everything from story times for children to game nights for teens”可知，大多数图书馆都有各种各样的活动，从为孩子准备的讲故事时段到青少年的游戏之夜。所以想小题2与上一句一同来说明讲图书馆里的活动。故F选项“许多图书馆还免费提供丰富的课程。”符合句意。故F选项切题。
【18题详解】
由“ If there's no beach nearby, do the same in the sandbox at a playground.”可知，如果附近没有海滩，在操场的沙箱里也要这样做。所以本句是对小题3的假设。故B选项“去海滩建一座沙堡”符合句意。故B选项切题。
【19题详解】
由“Most cities have at least one local community center. There, you can pick up a park and recreation schedule, with information on free events taking place throughout the year, such as hikes, holiday parties, art festivals, outdoor movies and concerts in the park.”可知，大多数城市至少有一个社区中心。在那里，你可以找到一个公园和娱乐时间表，上面有全年免费活动的信息，比如远足、假日派对、艺术节、户外电影和公园里的音乐会。所以本段主要在说明参观当地的社区中心是家庭娱乐的好去处也就是本段的标题小题4所要说明的内容。故A选项切题。
【20题详解】
由标题“Tour the fire station”可知，参观消防站。所以本段主要在说明怎么样才能获准参观，参观的内容，以及对于孩子年龄的限制。所以小题5要说明参观的内容。故E选项“孩子们可以学习消防安全知识和参观各种消防设施”符合句意。故E选项切题。

增加：在缺词处加一个漏字符号（∧），并在其下面写出该加的词。

When we are happy, we would like share our happiness with others, making them know our enjoyment. When we are not in a good mood, we wanted to get someone whom can listen to us. Be a listener is not easy. People always complain about our worries, and a good listener should listen to them but learn to comfort them. To be a good listener can help us make good friend with others. The one who always listen to others is more likely to be easy-going. When he is in the trouble, his friends will be willingly to help him. So let’s learn to be a good listener from now on.
【答案】1.like后添加to
2.wanted→want
3.whom→who
4.Be→Being
5.our→their
6.but→and
7.friend→friends
8.listen→listens
9.去掉the
10.willingly→willing
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。本文主要讲了成为一名好的倾听者的重要意义，以及如何成为一名好的倾听者。
【详解】1.考查固定短语。句意：当我们开心时，我们愿意和别人分享我们的快乐。根据固定短语would like to do sth.表示“愿意做某事”。故like后添加to。
2.考查动词时态。整篇文章都用的是一般现在时，所以这里也用一般现在时，且主语为we，谓语动词用原形。故wanted改为want。
3.考查定语从句。本句为定语从句修饰先行词someone，且先行词在从句中作主语，指人，用who。故whom改为who。
4.考查非谓语动词。本句中缺少主语，应用动词-ing形式做主语。故Be改为Being。
5.考查代词。句意：人们总是抱怨他们的烦恼。表示“他们的”应用their。故our改为their。
6.考查连词。句意：一位好的倾听者应该听他们诉苦，并且学会安慰他们。表示并列关系，应用连词and。故but改为and。
7.考查名词的数。根据短语make friends with sb.表示“和某人交朋友”。故friend改为friends。
8.考查主谓一致。此处为一般现在时，且主语为who，指代先行词the one，谓语应用第三人称单数。故listen改为listens。
9.考查冠词。根据短语be in trouble表示“处于困境中”，不需要使用冠词。故去掉the。
10.考查形容词。根据上文be可知，应填形容词willing作表语，表示“愿意的”。故willingly改为willing。
