2024屆高考英語一輪復(fù)習(xí) Module2 Traffic Jam考點(diǎn)規(guī)范練20（含解析）外研版必修4.閱讀理解

　　A

　　Well,parents,surprise!Lots of us are using Twitter to thumb rides,and not just to school.It’s awkward to be refused when you call a friend and ask for a ride.But with Twitter,you just look for other people heading the same way.

　　It may sound risky,so many teens stay within their own social circles to find rides,and don’t branch out beyond friends when asking on Twitter just like me, but to some young people,especially those taking longer trips,stranger danger is less of a concern.

　　“I think the digital connection of young people is really key,because younger generations grew up sharing things online,sharing files,photos,music,etc.,so they’ve been very used to sharing,”said Juliet Schor,a sociology professor at Boston College.

　　The sharing economy got big during the recession(經(jīng)濟(jì)衰退),allowing people to access more goods,services using technology and even to share costs.And that technology,for me,is what the car was for my mom,a gateway to more freedom,like what my friend Earl says,“The symbol of freedom isn’t the car any more,because there’s technology out there connecting you to a car.”

　　According to the researchers at the University of Michigan,30 years ago,eight in ten American 18-year-olds had a driver’s license compared to six in ten today.So it’s not that surprising that on my 16th birthday I wasn’t rushing to get a license but an iPhone.

　　“Driving,for young people,does mean they have to disconnect from their technology,and that’s a negative.So if they could sit in the passenger side and still be connected,that’s going to be a plus,”Schor continued.

　　To me,another plus is that ridesharing represents something,something much bigger than trying to save money.I see it as evidence that people still depend on each other.My generation shares their cars and apartments the way neighbors used to share cups of sugar.For the system to work,some of us still need our own cars.But until I get my own version of the silver Super Beetle,you can find me on Twitter.

　　1.The American teens like me,prefer to possess an iPhone as a birthday gift because 　.?

　　A.it is most fashionable and cool

　　B.they are bored with driving cars

　　C.they are fond of being connected

　　D.it is much cheaper than a car

　　2.We can learn from the text that 　.?

　　A.Twitter is a website for teens to make friends and achieve goals

　　B.ridesharing can be seen as a sign that people still count on each other

　　C.driving cars for teens means a plus and connecting with technology

　　D.having a car and cost-sharing symbolize more freedom for the author’s mother

　　3.Professor Juliet would agree that 　.?

　　A.young people will sit waiting to be contacted by reading a passage

　　B.sharing economy is bound to be responsible for the recession

　　C.young people tend to share a car with strangers by means of Twitter

　　D.being connected via technology comes first for young people

　　4.The best title for the passage is probably 　.?

　　A.Twitter,an Awesome Website

　　B.Cars or iPhones

　　C.Teens Use Twitter to Thumb Rides

　　D.Cool Teens on the Go

　　B

　　From the health point of view,we are living in a wonderful age.A large number of once fatal illnesses can now be cured by modern drugs and surgery.But though the possibility of living a long and happy life is greater than ever before,every day we witness the incredible killing of people on the roads.Man is opposite to the motor car!It is a never-ending battle which man is losing.Thousands of people are killed each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen.

　　It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel (方向盤),his car becomes the extension of his personality.There is no doubt that the motor car often brings out a man’s worst qualities.People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognizable when they are behind a steering wheel.They are rude,ill-mannered and aggressive.All their hidden frustrations and disappointments seem to be brought to the surface by the act of driving.

　　The surprising thing is that society smiles on the motorist and seems to forgive the behaviour.Everything is done for his convenience.Cities and towns are made ugly by huge car parks.

　　It is high time that world laws were created to reduce this senseless waste of human life.With regard to driving,the laws of some countries are not strict and even the strictest are not strict enough.A law which was universally accepted could only have a beneficial effect on the accident rate.Here are a few examples of some things that might be done.The driving test should be made to a fixed standard and far more difficult than it is;all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so;the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21;all vehicles should be put through strict annual tests for safety.Present drinking and driving laws(where they exist) should be made much stricter.Driving speed should be limited on all roads.These measures may sound extremely severe.But surely nothing should be considered difficult if it results in reducing the annual toll of human life.After all,the world is for human beings,not motor cars.

　　5.The main idea of this passage is that 　.?

　　A.traffic accidents are mainly caused by motorists

　　B.thousands of people in the world are killed each year

　　C.only stricter traffic laws can prevent accidents

　　D.the laws of some countries about driving are too strict

　　6.Which of the following is RIGHT according to the passage?

　　A.It is right to build huge car parks in cities and towns.

　　B.All the drivers must be asked to take a test every year.

　　C.Working by car can save time and money.

　　D.Society overlooks drivers’ rude driving.

　　7.Why does the author say“his car becomes the extension of his personality”?

　　A.Driving can show his real self.

　　B.Driving can bring out his good character.

　　C.Driving can make a man excited and joyful.

　　D.Driving can make a man quiet and pleasant.

　　8.The attitude of the author is 　.?

　　A.approving　B.critical

　　C.sympathetic D.aggressive

　　Ⅱ.七選五

　　Take a look at teenagers around you,dressed in baggy pants,drinking soft drinks such as coke,and reading Japanese cartoons.Whether you are in Beijing or Hong Kong,you will get the same impression.　1　?

　　It sounds convenient that people throughout the world speak the same language,dress in the same style,eat the same food and play the same games.If the world were like this,you wouldn’t feel strange in any corner of the world.But just imagine living in such a strange world.　2　?

　　The variety of food that people can taste, the colorful and stylish clothes that we dress in and different languages we speak are all part of the various cultures that our ancestors left us.These differences represent their creativity and talent.　3　 When you travel to other places, you want to see different things.When you talk to foreigners,you expect to listen to interesting stories.These differences in culture are what make life colorful.?

　　　4　Many different cultures are disappearing.In most big cities around the world people wear the same clothes.Fast food stores are everywhere.Hollywood movies are kicking traditional performing arts out of our lives.The colors of our life are fading away.?

　　There is a joke that even the panda and zebra want to live a colorful life.　5　?

　　A.How can we live in a world with different cultures?

　　B.But should we copy others or should we maintain our differences?

　　C.So let’s take action to protect our colorful culture before it becomes as simple as black and white.

　　D.How dull and colorless it would be!

　　E.And we all enjoy different cultures in our daily life.

　　F.So we must try our best to make our life easier with the development of the world.

　　G.But the whole world is shrinking into a small village as globalization takes effect.

　　Ⅲ.書面表達(dá)

　　假定你是李華,得知一所英語學(xué)校招聘助教,幫助外教組織教學(xué)。請你用英語給該校寫一封郵件應(yīng)聘。內(nèi)容主要包括:

　　1.口語能力;

　　##

　　Ⅰ.【語篇導(dǎo)讀】現(xiàn)在美國想要考取駕照的年輕人的人數(shù)在減少,因為這一代年輕人使用數(shù)碼設(shè)備聯(lián)系彼此,這樣的聯(lián)系已經(jīng)成為他們生活中不可缺少的一部分。

　　1.C　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。依據(jù)文章倒數(shù)第二段中Juliet Schor的話可知,如今年輕人喜歡與他人保持聯(lián)系,故他們寧愿擁有一部iPhone。選C項。

　　2.B　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。依據(jù)文章最后一段中的“I see it as evidence that people still depend on each other”可知,作者并沒有把拼車僅僅看做是為了省錢,還看做人們相互依靠的證據(jù)。故選B項。

　　3.D　推理判斷題。依據(jù)文章第三段中的“I think the digital connection of young people is really key...so they’ve been very used to sharing”可知,Juliet Schor認(rèn)為對年輕人來說,通過網(wǎng)絡(luò)科技聯(lián)系彼此是非常重要的。故選D項。

　　4.C　標(biāo)題判斷題。文章第一段中的“Lots of us are using Twitter to thumb rides,and not just to school”說明了文章的主題。故選C項。

　　【語篇導(dǎo)讀】文章主要介紹了交通事故每年造成很多人死亡,但是卻沒有嚴(yán)格的交通法規(guī)對交通進(jìn)行控制和管理,進(jìn)而呼吁制定嚴(yán)格的法規(guī)來減少交通事故的發(fā)生。

　　5.C　主旨大意題。文章主要講述了交通事故每年造成很多人死亡,但卻沒有嚴(yán)格的交通法規(guī)對交通進(jìn)行控制和管理,再結(jié)合文章最后一段的內(nèi)容可知,只有嚴(yán)格的法規(guī)才能減少交通事故的發(fā)生,故選C項。

　　6.D　正誤判斷題。根據(jù)第三段的“Cities and towns are made ugly by huge car parks”可知A項表述不正確;根據(jù)第四段的“all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so”可知,B項表述不正確;C項文章中沒有提到。故選D項。

　　7.A　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從本句話后面的內(nèi)容可知,開車能使一個人表現(xiàn)出真正的自己,故選A項。

　　8.B　作者態(tài)度題。從文章的最后一句“After all,the world is for human beings,not motor cars”可以看出,作者對目前的交通法規(guī)持批判的態(tài)度,故選B項。

　　.1.B　2.D　3.E　4.G　5.C

　　Dear Sir/Madam,?

　　I’ve learned a teaching assistant for foreign teachers is wanted in your school.I’m writing to apply for the job.?

　　First of all,having been exposed to foreign teachers since a young age,I can communicate freely with others in English.What’s more,years of experience of being monitor makes me a brilliant organizer,which will help me a lot to keep the class in order.The most important factor is that I love kids,and I’m confident that my patience and care will undoubtedly win their trust.

　　All in all,I think my enthusiasm and full sense of responsibility will make me a qualified teaching assistant.I’d appreciate it if you could take my application into consideration.

　　Best wishes!?

　　Yours sincerely,?
