(2017·湖南部分重点中学考前演练)
It’s well knwn t car drivers that red means “stp”, green means “g”, and yellw means “hurry up and make that damn light”.Why thse clrs, thugh? The answer lies in the fact that the earliest traffic signals were designed fr trains, nt cars.They were red and green, gaspwered, and mre than a little dangerus in the event f a leak.
Red is an inherited(继承的) symbl frm railrads, which symblizes danger in many cultures.As red has a lnger wavelength than any ther clr n the visible spectrum(光谱), it can be seen frm a greater distance than ther clrs.Red has meant “stp” since lng befre cars existed, with train signals’ use f red dating back t the days when mechanical arms lifted and lwered t indicate whether the rail ahead was clear.
Green’s wavelength is next t(and shrter than) yellw’s n the visible spectrum, meaning it’s still easier t see than any clr ther than red and yellw.Back in the early days f railway lights, green meant “cautin”, while the “allclear” light was, well, clear r white.It is said that several disastrus cllisins happened after an engineer mistk stars in the night fr an allclear.Thus, green became “g”, and fr a lng time, railways used nly green and red t signal trains.
Frm the earliest days f mtring up until the mid1900s,nt all stp signs were red—many were yellw, because at night it was all but impssible t see a red stp sign in a prly lit area.In 1915 the yellw stpsign craze began in Detrit, a city that five years later installed its first electric traffic signal, which happened t include the very first yellw traffic light.
But what f thse mysterius yellw stp signs? As materials and technlgies evlved, the ability t prduce highly reflective signs meant that red culd resume its natural spt in the sign hierarchy, leaving the stillhighlyvisible yellw t the dmain(领域) f “cautin”.That’s why schl znes and buses, crsswalks, and ther imprtant warnings are yellw tday.
12.What were traffic lights riginally intended fr?
A.Trains. B.Cars.
C.Planes. D.Ships.
13.What’s the main reasn fr red’s lng being used t mean “stp”?
A.It can be seen even in dark areas.
B.It represents danger in many cultures.
C.It has the lngest wavelength.
D.Peple prefer red t ther clrs.
14.Which f the fllwing may the authr agree with?
A.The meaning f red is culturespecific.
B.Yellw functined as stp signs in the 1900s.
C.Green’s wavelength is just secnd t that f red.
D.Green’s rle in lights has changed ver time.
15.What des the passage mainly talk abut?
A.The significance f rad traffic signs.
B.The histry f railrad transprtatin.
C.The symblic meaning f different clrs.
D.The rigin and develpment f traffic lights.

【解题导语】 本文是一篇应用文,介绍了在Bend旅游时可以选择的四个宾馆。
1.B 解析:推理判断题。根据第二段中的“ a cmmitment t using natural prducts where pssible and running n 100% renewable energy”可知,该宾馆尽可能地使用天然产品和可再生能源,因此它是环保的。故选B。
2.D 解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“McMenamins htels venue and cinema.”可知, 该宾馆是由学校改建而成的,故选D。
3.A 解析:推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Bend may just be the perfect small U.S. city deserving a visit.And the fllwing will ffer yu an enjyable experience f staying.”和下文对各个宾馆的介绍可知, 本文旨在为到Bend旅游的人提供可住宿宾馆建议,应属于旅游专栏。故选A。
【解题导语】 本文主要讲述了作者送女儿去夏令营的故事,启迪人们:对孩子有时候要放手,让孩子独立成长。
4.D 解析:推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句和第三段最后一句可推知, 作者送女儿去夏令营的目的是想让她学会独立,不再对作者太依赖,这与文章最后一段的内容呼应,故选D。
5.C 解析:细节理解题。根据第五段和第六段的内容可知,作者的女儿初去夏令营很害怕,紧紧抓住作者的手不放,作者把她交给夏令营的工作人员,然后走了,故选C。
6.C 解析:推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“I began t shake.Tears streamed dwn my face.It tk every bit f my strength t keep driving frward.”可推知, 作者送走女儿后很难过,但是觉得自己的决定是对的,这与最后一段的反思形成呼应,故选C。
7.B 解析:推理判断题。根据全文内容尤其是最后一段可推知,作者通过自己送女儿去夏令营的故事启迪人们:对孩子有时候要放手,让孩子独立成长。故选B。
【解题导语】 媒体为了达到某一目的,往往会对人们造成误导,其负面影响很大,因此人们对媒体所传达的信息要进行理智的思考和判断,决不能盲目相信。
8.A 解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The media influences public pinin and impacts the chices that peple make.The media has led t a general pinin that thin is in and fat is ut.”可知, 媒体影响公众的观点以及人们所做出的选择,媒体导致公众认为“瘦是时尚,胖是落伍”,这使得肥胖的人觉得自己格格不入,于是他们准备饿肚子来减肥,从而导致饮食紊乱。由此可知,媒体会使人们形成有关美的错误观念。故选A。
9.C 解析:词义猜测题。根据文章第二段中的“With the intentin kids and teenagers.”可知, 为了吸引大众更多的关注, 媒体会在一定程度上夸大事物, 而不是每个人都能够去除“夸张”这种因素的影响。 大部分人认为一切都是真的,尤其是孩子和青少年。由此可推知画线部分的意思是“过滤掉,去除”,与remve的意思相近。故选C。
10.B 解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中的“while a certain amunt media mre bvius.”可知, 适度接触媒体对我们了解外面的世界是完全必要的,但过多的、毫无节制的接触对我们则无益处, 会对我们产生消极的影响。由此可知, B项“事物都有两面性”符合题意。
11.D 解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The nly way fr anything.”可知, 作者建议人们不要被媒体的描述所欺骗, 不要盲目相信媒体所报道的, 要有自己的判断, 也就是说人们在媒体(信息)面前,要恰当运用自己的判断。故选D。
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。我们都知道“红灯停、绿灯行、黄灯亮了快点走”的交通规则,但交通信号灯为什么是红、黄、绿三种颜色呢?本文主要介绍了交通信号灯的起源和发展。
12.A 解析:细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The answer lies in the fact that the earliest traffic signals were designed fr trains, nt cars.”可知, 最初, 交通信号灯是为火车而不是汽车的通行而设计的。故选A。
13.C 解析:细节理解题。根据第二段中的“As red ther clrs.”可知, 由于红色在可见光谱中波长最长, 因此可视距离要比其他颜色更远,这也是其能长期被用作表示“停止”的交通信号的原因。故选C。
14.D 解析:推理判断题。根据第三段的内容尤其是“green meant ‘cautin’”“green became ‘g’”可知, 随着时间的变化,绿色在交通信号灯中所扮演的角色也发生了巨大的变化。故选D。
15.D 解析:主旨大意题。通读全文内容可知, 本文主要讲述了交通信号灯的起源与发展, 并解释了这三种颜色(红、黄、绿)的物理性质及为什么会被用作交通信号灯。故D项最为全面地概括了文章的主要内容。
