　　Ⅳ.閱讀理解

　　A

　　(2024·天津高考)A world-famous Canadian author, Margaret Atwood, has created the world's first long-distance signing device(裝置), the LongPen.

　　After many tiring book-signing tours from city to city，Atwood thought there must be a better way to do them.She hired some technical experts and started her own company in 2004.Together they designed the LongPen.Here's how it works: The author writes a personal message and signature on a computer tablet(手寫板) using a special pen.On the receiving end, in another city, a robotic arm fitted with a regular pen signs the book.The author and fan can talk with each other via webcams(網(wǎng)絡(luò)攝像機(jī)) and computer screens.

　　Work on the LongPen began in Atwood's basement(地下室)．At first, they had no idea it would be as hard as it turned out to be.The device went through several versions, including one that actually had smoke coming out of it.The inventing finally completed, test runs were made in Ottawa, and the LongPen was officially launched at the 2006 London Book Fair.From here, Atwood conducted two transatlantic book signings of her latest book for fans in Toronto and New York City.

　　The LongPen produces a unique signature each time because it copies the movement of the author in real time.It has several other potential applications.It could increase credit card security and allow people to sign contracts from another province.The video exchange between signer and receiver can be recorded on DVD for proof when legal documents are used.

　　“It's really fun”， said the owner of a bookstore, who was present for one of the test runs.“Obviously you can't shake hands with the author，but there are chances for a connection that you don't get from a regular book signing.”

　　The response to the invention has not been all favorable.Atwood has received criticism from authors who think she is trying to end book tours.But she said, “It will be possible to go to places that you never got sent to before because the publishers couldn't

　　afford it.”

　　【語篇解讀】　本文是一篇說明文。如果你是一位著名的作家，需要到處簽名的話，你會(huì)感到很累的。有了the LongPen，一切煩惱皆無，快來看看the LongPen是什么吧！

　　1．Why did Atwood decide to invent the LongPen?

　　A．To set up her own company.

　　B．To win herself greater popularity.

　　C．To write her books in a new way.

　　D．To make book signings less tiring.

　　【解析】　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段第一句After many tiring book-signing tours from city to city，Atwood thought there must be a better way to do them.可知D項(xiàng)“使給書簽名不再那么累”是發(fā)明the LongPen的初衷。根據(jù)第二段中的第一、二句After many...started her own company in 2004.知是為了發(fā)明the LongPen才成立的公司，可排除A項(xiàng)“為了成立她自己的公司”；B項(xiàng)“為她自己贏得更高的知名度”以及C項(xiàng)“用一種新的方法寫書”在文中都沒涉及。

　　【答案】　D

　　2．How does the LongPen work?

　　B．It signs a book while

　　receiving the author's signature.

　　C．The webcam sends the author's signature to another city.

　　D．The fan uses it to copy the author's signature himself.

　　【解析】　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第二段中的Here's how it works...知冒號(hào)后面的內(nèi)容是描述the LongPen的工作原理的。根據(jù)The author writes a personal message and signature on a computer tablet using a special pen.On the receiving end，in another city，a robotic arm fitted with a regular pen signs the book.可知B項(xiàng)“它在收到作者的簽名時(shí)在書上簽字”與文意符合。A項(xiàng)“它復(fù)制作者的簽名并把它印在書上”以及D項(xiàng)“粉絲自己用它復(fù)制作者的簽名”在文中都未涉及；根據(jù)第二段中的The author and fan can talk with each other via webcams and computer screens.知C項(xiàng)“網(wǎng)絡(luò)攝像機(jī)把作者的簽名發(fā)送到另一個(gè)城市”是錯(cuò)誤的。

　　【答案】　B

　　3．What do we know about the invention of the LongPen?

　　A．It has been completed but not put into use.

　　B．The basement caught fire by accident.

　　C．Some versions failed before its test run.

　　D．The designers were well-prepared for the difficulty.

　　【解析】　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的The device went through several versions...The inventing finally completed...可知C項(xiàng)“在測試之前the LongPen有幾個(gè)版本失敗了”與文意符合；根據(jù)第三段中的．..the LongPen was officially launched at the 2006 London Book Fair.可以排除A項(xiàng)“它已完成，但還沒被投入使用”；根據(jù)第三段中的including one that actually had smoke coming out of it可知一支筆還曾冒煙，可以排除B項(xiàng)“地下室意外著火了”；根據(jù)第三段中的第二句At first，they had no idea it would be as hard as it turned out to be.可以排除D項(xiàng)“設(shè)計(jì)者為困難做好了準(zhǔn)備”。

　　【答案】　C

　　4．How could the LongPen be used in the future?

　　A．To draft legal documents.

　　B．To improve credit card security.

　　C．To keep a record of the author's ideas.

　　D．To allow author and fan to exchange videos.

　　【解析】　細(xì)節(jié)理解題。第四段中的第二句It has several other potential applications.是解本題的關(guān)鍵。根據(jù)第四段中最后一句．..for proof when legal documents are used.可以排除A項(xiàng)“起草法律文件”；根據(jù)第四段中第三句It could increase credit card security...知B項(xiàng)“提高信用卡的安全性”符合文意；根據(jù)第四段中第四句The video exchange between signer and receiver can be recorded on DVD...可以排除C項(xiàng)“記錄作者的想法”和D項(xiàng)“允許作者和粉絲交換視頻”。

　　【答案】　B

　　5．What could be inferred from Paragraphs 5 and 6?

　　A．Atwood doesn't mean to end book tours.

　　B．Critics think the LongPen is of little use.

　　D．Publishers dislike the LongPen for its high cost.

　　【解析】　推理判斷題。根據(jù)第六段中的Atwood has received criticism from authors who think she's trying to end book tours.知，有些作家認(rèn)為the LongPen會(huì)結(jié)束簽名售書的旅行，但實(shí)際上Atwood并無此意，因此A項(xiàng)是正確的，還可以排除B項(xiàng)“批評(píng)家認(rèn)為the LongPen幾乎沒有用處”；根據(jù)第五段中的“It's really fun，”said the owner of a bookstore...可以排除C項(xiàng)“書店的主人不支持the LongPen”；根據(jù)第六段中的最后一句．..because the publishers couldn't afford it知出版商付不起的是旅游費(fèi)，而不是the LongPen，因此排除D項(xiàng)。

　　【答案】　A

　　B

　　(2024·四川成都四校聯(lián)考)Whether they are hunters or the hunted，these cunning animals are all masters of disguise(偽裝)who can fool even the most beady-eyed passers-by into believing they are not there.Some hide under lily pads，and some dissolve into the bark of a tree while others slip into the snow，either to hide from a hungry predator or to silently stalk(追蹤)an unwitting prey.

　　With their almost perfect camouflage，these animals are some of the Earth's best masters of disguise.However，while they can hide from their predators they cannot escape the sharp eyes of American photographer Art Wolfe，who has spent over 35 years roaming(漫步)the deserts of Africa，the rainforests of South America，the mountains of the United States and show plains of Canada to capture wildlife at its most invisibility.

　　The Seattle·WA photographer says that finding and filming these clever animals is a painstaking process，which often takes many hours.However for him，it is definitely worth the time because the thrill of capturing a creature that has managed to blend into its natural habitat so skillfully，is like none other.

　　His search has taken him to almost every continent in the world—from the deserts of Africa to the rainforests of South America and even，the snow plains of Canada.Over the years he has snapped so many amazing photos that he has been able to showcase them in two books—a children's book entitled Hiding Out that was first published in 2003 and Vanishing Act，which first came to bookstores in 2005—both have been translated into several languages and been extremely popular all over the world.

　　And，he is not done yet.The 61-year-old man who also happens to be a television producer continues to unearth nature's beauties under lily pads，dissovled into tree trunks or stealthily awaiting their prey in the white snow! Would you have been able to spot any of them if you had not known what they were like in the photographs？Be sure to let us know，by adding your comments below.

　　(2024·新課標(biāo)全國卷)Are you facing a situation that looks impossible to fix?

　　In 1969，the pollution was terrible along the Cuyahoga River near Cleveland，Ohio.It 1.________(be)unimaginable that it could ever be cleaned up.The river was so polluted that it 2.________(actual)caught fire and burned.Now，years later，this river is one of 3.________ most outstanding examples of environmental cleanup.

　　But the river wasn't changed in a few days 4.________ even a few months.It took years of work 5.________(reduce) the industrial pollution and clean the water.Finally，that hard work paid off and now the water in the river is 6.________(clean) than ever.

　　Maybe you are facing an impossible situation.Maybe you have a habit 7.________ is driving your family crazy.Possibly you drink too much or don't know how to control your credit card use.When you face such an impossible situation，don't you want a quick fix and something to change immediately?

　　While there are 8.________(amaze) stories of instant transformation，for most of us the 9.________(change) are gradual and require a lot of effort and work，like cleaning up a polluted river.Just be 10.________(patience)．

　　1．was　考查時(shí)態(tài)。事情發(fā)生在1969年，是一個(gè)過去的時(shí)間，故此處要用一般過去時(shí)。

　　2．a(chǎn)ctually　考查詞性變換之形容詞變?yōu)楦痹~。空格處修飾動(dòng)詞caught和burned，故用副詞形式actually。

　　3．the　考查定冠詞的用法。后面的most outstanding最高級(jí)，其前面要用定冠詞the。

　　4．or　考查并列連詞。句意：但是河流不是幾天或幾個(gè)月就改變了的。a few days 和a few months為并列關(guān)系，且此句是否定句，因此要用or連接。

　　5．to reduce　考查非謂語動(dòng)詞之動(dòng)詞不定式。句中it是形式主語，真正的主語是動(dòng)詞不定式，故用to reduce。該句結(jié)構(gòu)為It＋takes＋時(shí)間＋to do sth.。句意：減少工業(yè)污染和清理水需要數(shù)年的工作。

　　6．cleaner　考查形容詞比較等級(jí)。從后面的than可知此處要用比較級(jí)，因此要用cleaner。

　　7．that/which　考查定語從句的引導(dǎo)詞。定語從句的先行詞為前面的habit，而該定語從句缺少主語，因此要用that或which引導(dǎo)。

　　8．a(chǎn)mazing　考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換之動(dòng)詞變?yōu)樾稳菰~。此處用形容詞修飾名詞stories。amaze的形容詞有兩個(gè)，一個(gè)是amazing，另一個(gè)是amazed。修飾物(stories)當(dāng)然用amazing。

　　9．changes　考查名詞復(fù)數(shù)。前面是定冠詞the，因此后面要用名詞，再由謂語動(dòng)詞are可知此空要用其名詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式，故填changes。

　　10．patient　考查詞性轉(zhuǎn)換之名詞變?yōu)樾稳菰~。此處用形容詞作be的表語。名詞patience(耐心)的形容詞形式是patient(有耐心的)。
