2019版高考英语一轮优化探究（话题部分）练习：话题10 必修2 Unit 4 Wildlife protection(含解析)

Ⅰ.阅读理解ARecently，I had lunch with a young Chinese student who studies at a college in New York.He is very bright and aspiring and I enjoyed our conversation.Still I felt frustrated and useless afterwards because I was not able to provide him with any good news.Graduating at the end of this year，he asked me how he could find a job in this country and fulfill his career dreams.In recent years，students who found a job here after graduation have had to go through a cruel lottery system to obtain their HIB working visa.And the success rates have been declining year after year because of the ever growing number of applicants.Last year，there were 233,000 applicants, and only 30 percent of them were lucky，less than half of the rate in 2013.And it can only become worse.US President Donald Trump's immigration policies in this country are tightening up and this trend will continue for at least the next few years.In this case，foreign students studying social sciences，a field in which starting salaries are rarely above the required amount，can kiss their visa hopes goodbye.Compared to the older generation of Chinese students，today's young people no longer consider the US as the only option.Many start to think China offers better opportunities in the longer term.This is not to say that Chinese students in the US are not interested in job opportunities here any more.A few years of work experience in the US can give them leverage when they finally land back in their home country.But if the job opportunities are largely reduced by the tightening of immigration policy，I expect there will be a decline.And if that happens，it is the American economy that will suffer from the loss of those educated，hard­working and talented immigrants.[语篇解读]　本文为一篇记叙文。作者通过讲述自己和一名在纽约求学的中国大学生的交流过程意识到总统特朗普收紧移民政策使得中国学生在美国择业遇到困难，同时也会使美国经济遭受很大损失。1．The author felt frustrated because        .A．he was not interested in the talkB．he didn't fulfill

according to the passage?A．The lottery system for HIB working visa is too tough.B．Chinese students have no choice but to return to China.C．President Trump is tightening up the immigration policies.D．More and more students are applying for the working visa.解析：细节理解题。第二段与A项相对应，故排除A项；第三段第一、二句与C项相对应，故排除C项；第二段中的“the ever growing number of applicants”与D项相对应，故排除D项；只有B项(中国学生别无选择只得回中国)在文中未被提及，故为答案。答案：B3．What does the word “leverage” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A．Advantage.　　　　 B．Language.C．Ability. D．Education.解析：词义猜测题。根据第五段第一句(这并不是说在美国的中国学生对这里的工作机会不再感兴趣)可知leverage的意思是“优势”，故答案为A项。答案：A4．What is the author's attitude to the tightening of immigration policy?A．Doubtful.  B．Supportive.C．Indifferent. D．Worried.解析：观点态度题。根据最后一段最后一句可推知作者对收紧的移民政策感到担心，故答案为D项。doubtful“怀疑的”；supportive“支持的”；indifferent“漠不关心的”。答案：DB“Can I hug you？”community nurse Joyce Jebambula asks with a smile as she welcomes me back to her village.“Of course，” I say as I put my arms around her.It's an unbelievable moment.Just at the height of the outbreak more than a year ago，there was an “avoid body contact” rule here.It's now been removed.One of the most challenging parts of reporting this outbreak over the past 18 months is that I haven't been able to touch anyone in the worst­affected countries.When Ebola (埃博拉病毒) survivors described in tears losing their families，I had to almost sit on my hands to avoid reaching out to comfort them.The outbreak was declared over in Sierra Leone on November 7.I returned for the celebrations.But despite reaching this long­awaited milestone，all is not well.Ibrahim Koroma,21，clings to his survivor's certificate outside the home.All 17 of his family are now dead.The certificate is one of his most prized possessions. “He does not pose any risk to the community.” it  reads.Ibrahim tells me how his landlord has allowed him to stay in one of the rooms of his former family home until the end of the year.He says he doesn't know what he'll do after that.He does some part­time work，relying heavily on help from neighbours.His two little sisters and little brother died in the very room where he now sleeps.He says he often lies awake thinking of them，feeling very bad.The Ebola outbreak in West Africa was the worst on record.In past outbreaks there had only been a few hundred deaths and a few hundred survivors.It was thought that Ebola could live for only three months.But research has now shown it can linger for at least nine months.Scientists are still trying to find how long it could be infectious.[语篇解读]　本文为一篇记叙文。作者通过自己的亲身经历介绍了人们在埃博拉病毒爆发期间身心受到的摧残。5．What does the author think of hugging Joyce?A．Illegal.
