B卷
Ⅰ.閱讀理解
(2015·大慶高三教學(xué)質(zhì)量檢測)Steve and I pulled trash for four solid hours continuously,except for about five minutes when we stopped to talk.My shoulder hurt badly each time I put another full barrel on it, and my legs occasionally trembled as I was heading for the street.But the rest of me said, “Go, trashman, go.”
I could not have imagined there would be joy in this.Dump.Lift.Walk.Lift.Walk.The hours flew by.
Saturday meant many people were outdoors working in their gardens or greenhouses.Most of them looked approachable enough.There wasn't time for lengthy talks but enough to exchange greetings that go with civilized ways.But I was shocked to find that this wasn't the case.
When I said hello to them, most often the response was either nothing at all, or a surprising stare because I had spoken.
One woman in a housecoat was startled as I came around the corner of her house.At the sound of my greeting, she gathered her housecoat tightly about her and retreated quickly to the door.I heard the lock click.
Steve complained angrily on the long ride to the dump:“They don't realize we're humans.”
I had originally planned to stay at this employment for only two days but now I'm going to continue.I have decided, too, to keep saying hello in people's yards.It doesn't do any harm,and it still feels right.Frankly,I'm doing an essential task.I left this country a little cleaner than I found it this morning.Not many people can say that tonight.
John Gardner wrote that a society which praises its philosophers and looks down on its plumbers (管子工) is in trouble.“Neither_its_pipes_nor_its_theories_will_hold_water,”he warned.He might have gone a step further and called for respect for both our economists and our trashmen; otherwise,they'll both leave rubbish behind.
1.How did the woman feel when she heard the author's greeting?
A.Doubtful. B.Embarrassed.
C.Frightened. D.Pitiful.
2.At the end of the passage,what's the author's attitude to his job?
A.He is ashamed of it.

答案:
解題導(dǎo)語:這是一篇夾敘夾議文。作者是一名垃圾清理工,他以前對自己的工作不認(rèn)同,后來逐漸以自己的工作為榮。
1.C 解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段中的“she gathered her housecoat...and retreated quickly to the door. I heard the lock click.”可知,那位女士感到害怕,故選C項。
2.C 解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“I'm doing an essential task. I left this country a little cleaner...morning”可推知,作者為自己的工作感到自豪,故選C項。
3.A 解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)畫線句前的“a society which...is in trouble”可推知,畫線句主要是說人們對社會價值觀的判斷會出錯,故選A項。
4.B 解析:標(biāo)題判斷題。根據(jù)整篇文章內(nèi)容可知,作者是一名垃圾清理工,以前他對自己的工作不認(rèn)同,但后來逐漸以自己的工作為榮。故選B項。A項突出的是一次經(jīng)歷,比較片面。

They say what goes around comes around,but sometimes it is hard to see how that __14__ as there is often a “manifestation (顯現(xiàn)) delay”.Each action __15__ a ripple (漣漪) that eventually __16__ back to us,but sometimes it is much __17__ so we forget their connection.

答案:
解題導(dǎo)語:本文是一篇夾敘夾議文,主要講述作者在去工藝品店的路上搭載了一位陌生女子,這位陌生女子欣然接受作者的幫助使作者感到驚奇,然而接下來發(fā)生的事情使作者覺得這是美好的互動,這個故事旨在告訴人們:善有善報,惡有惡報。
1.B 解析:文章開頭提到聽見一位女士說自己的腳受傷了,并打算叫計程車可知,此處她應(yīng)該是在等計程車。
2.D 解析:她要去的地方實際上就在作者要去的工藝品店的那條路上。on the way to表示“在……的路上”。第8空后的“on the way to”也是提示。
3.A 解析:根據(jù)下一句話可知,作者是開著車的。
4.C 解析:根據(jù)語境可知,作者想叫這位女士取消打車,作者會載她一程。cancel“取消”。
5.B 解析:這位女士毫不猶豫地答應(yīng)乘坐作者的車,這使作者很吃驚(amazement)。
6.A 解析:參見上題解析。without hesitation“毫不猶豫”。
7.C 解析:作者不知道如果自己處于這種情況,是否也會這么容易相信陌生人。trusting“容易相信他人的,輕信的”。
8.D 解析:她要去的地方就在作者要去的地方的那條路上。right在此處為副詞,表示“就在(某個位置或地方)”。
9.B 解析:根據(jù)上一句話可知,兩人要去同一方向真是一個美好的巧合。此處可用排除法,結(jié)合選項可知,只有B項符合語境。
10.A 解析:當(dāng)作者拿起要買的東西準(zhǔn)備付賬時,作者后面的女士說她有優(yōu)惠券。pick up“拿起”。
11.D 解析:購買這家商店的任何商品都可以使用這張優(yōu)惠券。item“一件商品或物品”。
12.C 解析:因為這位女士還有一張優(yōu)惠券,所以她把這張優(yōu)惠券給了作者。extra“額外的,另外的”。
13.B 解析:作者得到了這張優(yōu)惠券,當(dāng)然會很高興,于是給了女士一張微笑卡。
14.D 解析:俗話說,一報還一報,但是有時很難明白是怎么回事,因為往往不是現(xiàn)世報。work意為“起作用”。
15.A 解析:我們的每個行為都會產(chǎn)生漣漪。create“產(chǎn)生”。
16.C 解析:我們的行為所產(chǎn)生的影響最終又會回到我們身上,即指一報還一報。come back“回來”。
17.C 解析:因為有時行為所產(chǎn)生的影響來得較遲,即不是現(xiàn)世報,因此我們會忘記它們之間的聯(lián)系。
18.A 解析:在給予中,自己也得到了回饋。giving與receiving呼應(yīng)。
19.B 解析:從他人那里作者學(xué)會了應(yīng)接受別人的幫助。由前一句中的“I'm also opening myself”可知,應(yīng)選B項。
20.D 解析:此處和文章第二段的最后一句話呼應(yīng),表示提供的幫助。
