Ⅰ.根据提示填空
Gabi Rizea only discovered his ❶talent (天资) for woodcarving three years ago, and has since put it to good use, saving dozens of old tree stumps (树桩) from being removed by turning them into ❷impressive (给人印象深刻的) works of art. Rizea became a woodcarver ❸completely (complete) by accident. Three years ago, after buying himself a new chainsaw (链锯), he started “playing” with it on a block of wood. He tried ❹carving (carve) a human face into the wood, and ❺to_his_surprise (令他吃惊的是), it turned out pretty good. Today, he is so good at woodcarving that his home city allows him to work his magic on old tree stumps and so far about 40 works of art have been ❻created (create) in the local parks.“In 99% of the cases, the wood just doesn't match my ideas，”he said in an interview.“I first have to ❼remove (去掉) all the rotten parts, and sometimes, what is left isn't enough for my designs.”Following his recent rise to fame, Rizea has been asked by many cities, including the capital of Romania to transform their old tree trunks into ❽works_of_art (艺术作品). He promised to honor their requests, but he will never repeat any of the artworks ❾found_ (find) in his home city. In spite of his obvious talent, the Romanian artist recently got into art school in order to fully master (掌握) woodcarving.
Ⅱ.片段选词填空

Could you do a little drawing for me, please？” Picasso smiled and quickly ❸drew a small, but beautiful piece of art on the paper. Then, he ❹handed the paper back to the woman, saying，“That will be one million dollars.”“But Mr. Picasso, it only took you 30 seconds to draw this little ❺masterpiece，”said the woman.“My good lady, I spend 30 years ❻learning to draw that masterpiece in thirty seconds.”said Picasso. Picasso isn't the only ❼brilliant man who worked for decades to master his craft. His journey is typical of many creative ❽geniuses.

Whether you are a composer or a scientist, creativity is not a quality you are born with or without. It is something that is discovered, honed (磨练), and improved through real work.

(加黑词汇为本单元话题词汇，读文时请揣摩其用法)
(2018·浙江高考阅读A)In 1812, the year Charles Dickens was born, there were 66 novels published in Britain. People had been writing novels for a century — most experts date the first novel to Robinson Crusoe in 1719 — but nobody wanted to do it professionally.The steampowered printing press was still in its early stages; the literacy (识字) rate in England was under 50%.Many works of fiction appeared without the names of the authors, often with something like “By a lady.” Novels, for the most part, were looked upon as silly, immoral or just plain bad.
In 1870, when Dickens died, the world mourned him as its first professional writer and publisher, famous and beloved, who had led an explosion in both the publication of novels and their readership and whose characters — from Oliver Twist to Tiny Tim — were held up as moral touchstones.Today Dickens' greatness is unchallenged.Removing him from the pantheon (名人堂) of English literature would make about as much sense as the Louvre selling off the Mona Lisa.
How did Dickens get to the top？For all the feelings readers attach to stories, literature is a numbers game, and the test of time is extremely difficult to pass.Some 60,000 novels were published during the Victorian age, from 1837 to 1901; today a casual reader might be able to name a halfdozen of them.It's partly true that Dickens' style of writing attracted audiences from all walks of life.It's partly that his writings rode a wave of social, political and scientific progress.But it's also that he rewrote the culture of literature and put himself at the center.No one will ever know what mix of talent, ambition, energy and luck made Dickens such a distinguished writer.But as the 200th anniversary of his birth approaches, it is possible — and important for our own culture — to understand how he made himself a lasting one.
语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了英国著名作家查尔斯·狄更斯及其作品是如何奠定他在英国文学中的地位的。
21.Which of the following best describes British novels in the 18th century?
A．They were difficult to understand.
B．They were popular among the rich.
C．They were seen as nearly worthless.
D．They were written mostly by women.
解析：选C　细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“Novels, for the most part, were looked upon as silly, immoral or just plain bad.”可知，那时印刷技术落后，人们识字率低，很多作品上没有作者名字，小说被认为是愚蠢的、有悖道德的或糟糕透顶的。故选C项。
22．Dickens is compared with the Mona Lisa in the text to stress________.
A．his reputation in France
B．his interest in modern art
C．his success in publication
D．his importance in literature
解析：选D　推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句“Removing him from the pantheon (名人堂) of English literature would make about as much sense as the Louvre selling off the Mona Lisa.”可知，把他从英国文学的名人堂移除就跟卢浮宫廉价出售《蒙娜丽莎》的感觉一样，可见狄更斯在英国文学史上的重要性，由此可推知D项正确。
23．What is the author's purpose in writing the text?
A．To remember a great writer.
B．To introduce an English novel.
C．To encourage studies on culture.
D．To promote values of the Victorian age.
解析：选A　写作目的题。根据文中对查尔斯·狄更斯及其作品在英国小说史上重要性的介绍，和文章最后一句可知，本文写于查尔斯·狄更斯诞辰200周年前夕，由此可知作者写本文是为了纪念查尔斯·狄更斯这位伟大的作家。

学习目标 ——题后把脉规律，练后得法理解更透

(1)覆盖面太大、太笼统，大大超出了文章论述的范围。
(2)覆盖面偏窄，在内容上只涉及文章的某一部分或若干要点，仅为文章的某一要点甚至某一细节。如上文第23题中的B项。
(3)与文章有部分交集，但偏离文章主题，有重叠但不重合。如上文第23题中的C、D两项。



Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2019·名校原创预测卷三)William Butler Yeats is Ireland's greatest poet and considered by many the finest poet of the twentieth century.
Yeats was born in Dublin in 1865, into a family where his childhood lacked the harmony that was typical of a happy family.His father John Butler Yeats was a distinguished painter, his sisters Susan and Elizabeth were creative craftswomen (女手艺人) and printers, and his brother Jack Yeats became Ireland's most celebrated painter. His mother was from a well established merchant family.
The year 1889 was a significant one in his life, as the publication of The Wanderings of Oisin in London marked his debut (初次亮相) as a major poet.It was also when he first met the beautiful Maud Gonne who became his muse, although his love was famously unrequited (单相思的)．
In 1917, Yeats met and married George Hyde­Lees.They went on to have two children, Anne and Michael. George shared his interest in the supernatural and automatic writing, and they were together until the poet's death in 1939, at Menton, France.
Yeats is a maker of extraordinary love poems and an architect of modernism, and many of his most powerful lines have entered the language.Yeats is unusual among poets in that he produced some of his best works after the age of sixty.
Yeats was the first Irishman to be awarded the Nobel Prize, in 1923.He saw the award as “part of Europe's welcome to the Free State”， and said he accepted on behalf of all who had worked with him in the Irish Literary Revival.Yeats is a cultural revolutionary who becomes a remarkable cultural entrepreneur.

A．He found his great talent for love poems.
B．He finished The Wanderings of Oisin.
C．He came across his lifelong partner.

解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第三段的第一句可知，在叶芝的一生中，1889年是重要的一年，因为The Wanderings of Oisin在伦敦的出版标志着他作为重要诗人的初次亮相。也就是说，在1889年，叶芝作为诗人被人们认识，所以这一年对他来说很重要。故选D。
3．How is Yeats different from other poets?
A．He led a rich and varied life.
B．He won the Nobel Prize in his youth.
C．He created some excellent works in later life.
D．He expressed his individuality through his works.

B
I grew up poor.We had little money, but plenty of love and attention.I understood that no matter how poor a person was, he or she could still afford a dream.My dream was athletics.
By the time I was sixteen, I was good at baseball and football.My high­school coach was Ollie Jarvis.He not only believed in me, but taught me the difference between having a dream and showing conviction (信念)．
One summer a friend recommended me for a summer job.This meant a chance for money in my pocket — cash for dates with girls, certainly, money for a new bike and new clothes, and the start of savings for a house for my mother.
Then I realized I would have to give up summer baseball to handle the work schedule, and that meant I would have to tell Coach Jarvis I wouldn't be playing.I was dreading (害怕的) this, but my mother said：“If_you_make_your_bed,_you_have_to_lie_in_it.”
When I told Coach Jarvis, he was as mad as I expected him to be.“Your playing days are limited.You can't afford to waste them，” he said.
I stood before him with my head hanging, trying to think of the words that would explain to him why my dream of buying my mom a house.
“How much are you going to make at this job, son？” he demanded.
“Three twenty­five an hour，” I replied.
“Well，”he asked, “is ＄3.25 an hour the price of a dream？”
That question laid bare for me the difference between wanting something right now and having a goal.I devoted myself to sports that summer, and within the year I was drafted by the Pittsburgh Pirates to play rookie­league ball, and offered a ＄20, 000 contract.I signed with the Denver Broncos in 1984 for ＄1.7 million, and bought my mother the house of my dream.
语篇解读：本文讲述一位棒球运动员的故事，告诉我们追求梦想和面对现实之间的区别。

B．Believe in yourself, but above all be patient.
C．You must rely on yourself first, then others.
D．A good beginning makes a good ending.
解析：选A　推理判断题。根据第四段的内容可知，作者意识到要放弃假期棒球来工作，这也就意味着作者要告诉教练，不能再打棒球了，作者很害怕，所以妈妈说“自己造成的结果自己来承受”，故选A项。
