(2019年衡水中学高三二调)

Alex Elman runs a big business—something difficult to imagine after she lost her sight in her twenties. But Elman says that losing her sight helped her focus on finding success.

Elman's father planted a hillside vineyard in western Massachusetts in 1981. It's where Elman fled during the darkest period of her life. When she was 27 years old, she went blind due to complications from juvenile diabetes (糖尿病) 17 years ago. She recalled, “I hid in my home. I hid in the place. For me, that was the safest place in the world.”

Elman is now the founder of Alex Elman Wines, a growing portfolio (系列产品) of organic wines from all around the world: Chianti from Italy, Torrontes from Argentina. Elman doesn't work alone. Her assistant, a guide dog named Hanley, is something of a wine snob, and quite a beggar. Hanley travels to all of the wineries that Elman does, from South America to Europe.

At first, Elman resisted the idea of a guide­dog. Now it's hard to imagine her life, or her business, without him. She said. “When someone tells me something is organic and I don't really believe it because I taste something funny on it, I'll put it in front of his face and if he likes the wine, he'll go to sniff it. If it's not right, he'll turn his head away. He gets in the dirt with me. He scratches around. He makes sure that we see earthworms and butterflies. That's how we know that the soil is actually organic, and that there are no chemicals.”

Elman told CBS News she believes the loss of her vision was a gift. She said, “It allowed me to pay attention to what I thought was important and also to be able to teach people that the_broken_hang_nail is not a big deal, you know what I mean? Don't sweat the small stuff. Don't sweat the big stuff either.”

1．Elman hid herself in her father's vineyard probably because she ________．

A．suffered from juvenile diabetes

B．was extremely painful for her blindness

C．would like to help her father with the work

D．expected to recover her sight sooner or later

2．The underlined phrase “the broken hang nail” (in Paragraph 5) probably refers to ________．

A．a nail which is of no use

B．a disadvantage you have in your life

C．a person who is hard to deal with

D．a task that is not easy to accomplish

3．This passage is mainly to tell us that ________．

A．Alex Elman leads a miserable life

B．Hanley brings Alex Elman much fun

C．Alex Elman gets along well with her pet

D．a blind woman tastes success in wine business

答案与解析

这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲了盲人亚历克斯·艾尔曼创立了酒企业的事迹。艾尔曼在27岁的时候失明，但是她并没有消极对待人生，在导盲犬的帮助下，她成功的创立了自己的公司，有了自己的品牌。

1．B　细节理解题。根据文中第二段可知，当她失明后，她把自己藏在了父亲的葡萄酒园里，是因为她当时内心很痛苦，故B选项正确。

2．B　词义猜测题。由画线部分前面提到作者认为失明对她来说是一份礼物而不是灾难，因为她懂得了什么是重要的，这里作者想告诉人们生活中的困难并没有什么了不起，所以破碎的钉子指的是生活中的困难。故B选项正确。

3．D　主旨大意题。这篇文章主要讲了一个盲人女人成功的创建了她自己的酒企业。D选项正确。

B

Regardless of how far we'd like to believe gender(性别)equality in the workplace has come, there's still a yawning gap between male and female leaders in the professional world. A 2018 statistic shows that women nowadays hold just 5.8 percent of CEOs positions at S&P 500 companies, according to Catalyst.

While it's not a huge shock that women are somewhat underrepresented in leadership positions, what is surprising though, is the fact that females may actually be better suited to lead in almost every area, at least according to new findings from the BI Norwegian Business School.

In their research, Professor Oyvind L. Martinsen and Professor Lars Glas surveyed (调查) 2，900 managers with a special focus on personality types. The results were clear: Women scored higher than men in four of the five major leadership­centric categories.

While some people believe that men inherently make better leaders—probably because they picture a leader with a commanding voice, which is more typical of men than women—this piece of research suggests that women are better at methodical management and goal­setting, openness, sociability and supportiveness, as well as ability to communicate clearly.

There was one area in which men scored higher than women, though, and that was on emotional stability and ability to face job­related pressure and stress. The results suggest that women are more sensitive to the effects of high­pressure or highly emotional situations.

Obviously, it's important to consider individual (个人的) differences. Anyone, regardless of gender, may be an inspiring leader and a competent boss. But next time you're hiring for a management position, you just might want to give the resumes (简历) from female candidates a harder look.

4．What makes us shocked much at leadership positions?

A．Women are worse than men.

B．Men take almost all high positions.

C．There is a huge gap between genders.

D．Women might behave better in nearly every field.

5．Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “inherently” in Paragraph 4?

A．properly      B．potentially

C．naturally      D．normally

6．Which of the following may be the best title of this text?

A．How We Can Figure Out The Boss

B．Why Women Are Better Than Men

C．Why Women Make The Best Bosses

D．How We Can Tell Gender Difference

7．Who might have special interest in this article?

A．Job hunters.     B．Employers.

C．Employees.     D．Male bosses.

答案与解析

这是一篇议论文。本文讲述了在工作领域男性领导人和女性领导人地位不平等现象，指出一个研究结果显示，在领导位置上，女性可能在各个领域表现更好，倡议雇主在招聘领导岗位员工时应多考虑女性。

4．D　细节理解题。根据第二段what is surprising though, is the fact that females may actually be better suited to lead in almost every area, at least according to new findings from the BI Norwegian Business School.得知，让人惊讶的是，在领导位置上，女性可能在各个领域表现更好。故选D。

5．C　词义猜测题。根据While some people believe that men inherently make better leaders — probably because they picture a leader with a commanding voice, which is more typical of men than women得知，人们认为男性自然能成为更好的领导者，画线词意思是“自然地”。故选C。

6．C　主旨大意题。文章主要围绕一个研究结果来展开论述，根据第四段this piece of research suggests that women are better at methodical management and goal­setting, openness, sociability and supportiveness, as well as ability to communicate clearly.得知，本文强调了女性在管理层的地位，因此“为什么女性是最好的老板”这个标题切题。故选C。

7．B　推理判断题。根据文章最后一句But next time you're hiring for a management position, you just might want to give the resumes(简历) from female candidates a harder look.(但下次你要招聘一个管理职位时，你可能只想更认真地从女性候选人的简历中找出一份。)得知，雇主们会对这篇文章感兴趣。故选B。

答案

Dear_Tom，

I'm sorry to hear that you will be back home soon. I will miss the joyful days we spent together.

As for a gift with Chinese features, I personally recommend Chinese knots. Knot, in Chinese “Jie”， means reunion, friendship, good fortune and love. Therefore, this unique artwork has been a popular gift for a long time to express best wishes and warmest regards. I think that your friends and family members will be delighted to have them. Besides, Chinese knots are handy and light and it will be easy for you to carry around.

Wish you a pleasant and safe trip back home, and please remember that you are always welcome to come back to visit us.

Yours_sincerely，

Li_Hua
