请阅读以下两篇高考真题和两份模拟题的阅读题:

2020年全国Ⅰ卷阅读B篇

Returning to a book you’ve read many times can feel like drinks with an old friend. There’s a welcome familiarity—but also sometimes a slight suspicion that time has changed you both, and thus the relationship. But books don’t change, people do. And that’s what makes the act of rereading so rich and transformative.

The beauty of rereading lies in the idea that our bond with the work is based on our present mental register. It’s true, the older I get, the more I feel time has wings. But with reading, it’s all about the present. It’s about the now and what one contributes to the now, because reading is a give and take between author and reader. Each has to pull their own weight.

There are three books I reread annually. The first, which I take to reading every spring is Emest Hemningway’s A Moveable Feast. Published in 1964, it’s his classic memoir of 1920s Paris. The language is almost intoxicating(令人陶醉的), an aging writer looking back on an ambitious yet simpler time. Another is Annie Dillard’s Holy the Firm, her poetic 1975 ramble(随笔)about everything and nothing. The third book is Julio Cortazar’s Save Twilight: Selected Poems, because poetry. And because Cortazar.

While I tend to buy a lot of books, these three were given to me as gifts, which might add to the meaning I attach to them. But I imagine that, while money is indeed wonderful and necessary, rereading an author’s work is the highest currency a reader can pay them. The best books are the ones that open further as time passes. But remember, it’s you that has to grow and read and reread in order to better understand your friends.

24. Why does the author like rereading?

A. It evaluates the writer-reader relationship.

B. It’s a window to a whole new world.

C. It’s a substitute for drinking with a friend.

D. It extends the understanding of oneself.

25. What do we know about the book A Moveable Feast?

A. It’s a brief account of a trip.

B. It’s about Hemingway’s life as a young man.

C. It’s a record of a historic event.

D. It’s about Hemingway’s friends in Paris.

26. What does the underlined word“currency”in paragraph 4 refer to?

A. Debt B. Reward. C. Allowance. D. Face value.

27. What can we infer about the author from the text?

A. He loves poetry. B. He’s an editor.

C. He’s very ambitious.   D. He teaches reading.

2019年全国Ⅱ卷阅读D篇

I have a special place in my heart for libraries. I have for as long as I can remember. I was always an enthusiastic reader, sometimes reading up to three books a day as a child. Stories were like air to me and while other kids played ball or went to parties, I lived out adventures through the books I checked out from the library.

My first job was working at the Ukiah Library when I was 16 years old. It was a dream job and I did everything from shelving books to reading to the children for story time.

As I grew older and became a mother, the library took on a new place and an added meaning in my life. I had several children, and books were our main source(來源)of entertainment. It was a big deal for us to load up and go to the local library, where my kids could pick out books to read or books they wanted me to read to them.

I always read, using different voices, as though I were acting out the stories with my voice and they loved it!It was a special time to bond with my children and it filled them with the wonderment of books.

Now, I see my children taking their children to the library and I love that the excitement of going to the library lives on from generation to generation.

As a novelist, I’ve found a new relationship with libraries. I encourage readers to go to their local library when they can’t afford to purchase a book. I see libraries as a safe haven(避风港) for readers and writers, a bridge that helps put together a reader with a book. Libraries, in their own way, help fight book piracy (盗版行为)and I think all writers should support libraries in a significant way when they can. Encourage readers to use the library. Share library announcements on your social media. Frequent them and talk about them when you can.

32. Which word best describes the author’s relationship with books as a child?

A. Cooperative.    B. Uneasy.    C. Inseparable.    D. Casual.

33. What does the underlined phrase“an added meaning” in paragraph 3 refer to?

A. Pleasure from working in the library.

B. Joy of reading passed on in the family.

C. Wonderment from acting out the stories.

D. A closer bond developed with the readers.

34. What does the author call on other writers to do?

A. Sponsor book fairs.      B. Write for social media.

C. Support libraries.         D. Purchase her novels.

35. Which can be a suitable title for the text?

A. Reading: A Source of Knowledge

B. My Idea about Writing

C. Library: A Haven for the Young

D. My Love of the Library

2018年深圳一模阅读B篇

My motivation for starting our family tradition of reading in the car was purely selfish: I could not bear listening to A Sesame Street Christmas for another 10 hours. My three children had been addicted to this cassette on our previous summers road trip.

As I began to prepare for our next 500-mile car trip, I came across a book-Jim Trelease’s The Read Aloud Handbook. This could be the answer to my problem. I thought. So I put Roald dahl’s James and the Giant Peach into my bag. When I began to read aloud the tale of the boy who escapes the bad guys by hiding inside a giant peach, my three kids argued and wrestled in their seats. But after several lines, they were attracted into the rhythm of the words and began to listen.

We soon learned that the simple pleasure of listening to a well-written book makes the long miles pass more quickly. Sometimes the books we read became highlights of the trip. I read Wilson Rawls’s Summer of the Monkeys as we spent two days driving to the beach. We arrived just behind the power crews restoring(恢復)electricity after a tropical (热带的)storm. The rain continued most of the week, and the beach was covered with oil washed up by the storm. When we returned home, I asked my son what he liked about the trip. He answered without hesitation, “The book you read in the car.”

Road trips still offer challenges, even though my children now are teenagers. But we continue to read as we roll across the country. And I’m beginning to see that reading aloud has done more than help pass the time. For at least a little while, we are not shut in our own electronic worlds. And maybe we’ve started something that will pass on to the next generation.

24. Why did the author start reading in the car?

A. She wanted to have a better journey.

B. She wanted to keep a family tradition

C. Her children were addicted to reading.

D. Her children were tired of the cassette

25. How did the children react after the author read a few lines?

A. They kept fighting

B. They hid themselves

C. They soon settled down

D. They read together aloud

26. What can we learn about the author and her family’s trip to the beach?

A. They were caught in a storm

B. They enjoyed reading on the road

C. They had a good time on the beach

D. They thought it had passed too quickly.

27. Which can be the best title for the text?

A. Better Traveling than Reading

B. Books that Changed My Children

C. Road Trips Full of Challenges

D. Reading Makes  Road Trips Great

2019年佛山二模閱读B篇

Alvin Irby wears many hats. He is a stand-up comedian(单口喜剧演员), a children’s book author, a former kindergarten teacher and, above all, the founder of the nonprofit Barbershop Books.

Barbershop Books tries to solve this problem: How to get black children excited about reading? Its solution: 15 books. Barbershop Books puts 15 books — all picked by kids — in each of the dozens of barbershops, mostly in black neighborhoods, across the country.

Irby, who just turned 33, says he’s hoping to help black children identify themselves as readers. That means, first and foremost, that reading should be fun. It also means kids need to see their life and interests reflected in the stories they read.

But, Irby says, the publishing industry has a long way to go. When he went to a big book exhibition recently, few of the kids’ titles on display had diverse characters. And those that did felt both foreign and not fun. The books’subjects were mainly slavery, civil rights, or old dead black persons. The librarians he met could hardly name two laugh-out-loud picture books with a black protagonist(主角).

Books about slavery and civil rights have their place, Irby believes, but little black boys and girls deserve books that allow them to be children and to laugh like children.

Irby says, schools need to focus less on out-of-touch books and reading tests that leave kids feeling defeated. They should try listening more and ask students: What are your strengths, your experiences, your interests? What’s most important to you?

In Levels Barbershop of New York, what’s most important to Vincent, a sixth-grader and son of a barber, is Diary of a Wimpy Kid, the book Irby just replaced, because the hero’s story feels real — and really funny.

“Everything goes wrong when he thinks that it’s gonna go right,”Vincent says.“Or, when something good’s about to happen, it just gets ruined by his brother, Roderick.”

Vincent’s enthusiasm — he says he’s read every last one of the shop’s 15 books — is all the motivation Alvin Irby needs to keep growing Barbershop Books. And it is growing.

Last year, the program won a $10,000 Innovations(创新) in Reading Prize from the National Book Foundation. And next month, Irby will host a New York City fundraiser...

24. What can we know about Irby?

A. He set up Barbershop Books.

B. He owned many barbershops.

C. He likes wearing different hats.

D. He works in a kindergarten now.

25. What is Irby’s opinion about the publishing industry?

A. It prefers to publish historical books.

B. It doesn’t hold enough book exhibitions.

C. Its books don’t connect with black children.

D. Its books have too many foreign characters.

26. Why does Vincent love reading Diary of a Wimpy Kid ?

A. It has a surprising ending.

B. It’s newly put on the shelf.

C. It’s a real story about a black hero.

D. It’s amusing and reflects his life.

27. The author uses the last paragraph to_______.

A. give evidence of Barbershop Books’success

B. arouse kids’enthusiasm for Barbershop Books

C. encourage donations for Barbershop Books

D. stress the importance of Barbershop Books

以上四篇文章中的考題,究竟有什么相似的地方呢?

2020年全国Ⅰ卷阅读B篇

第24题,考查“作者喜欢重读的原因”。根据该文第一段中的“But books don’t change, people do. And that’s what makes the act of rereading so rich and transformative.”第二段中的“The beauty of rereading lies in the idea that our bond with the work is based on our present mental register...But with reading, it’s all about the present. It’s about the now and what one contributes to the now”可知,重读是让人进一步了解现在的自我,选D项。

2019年全国Ⅱ卷阅读D篇

第33题,问“an added meaning”指代的是什么。根据其后的I had several children, and books were our main source (来源) of entertainment可知,阅读的乐趣在家庭中传递,选B项。

2018年深圳一模阅读B篇

第26题,问“关于作者和她的家人的海滩之旅,我们能了解到什么?”根据文中 “We soon learned that the simple pleasure of listening to a well-written book makes the long miles pass more quickly”“When we returned home, I asked my son what he liked about the trip. He answered without hesitation, ‘The book you read in the car.’”可知,他们喜欢在路上看书,故选B项。

2019年佛山二模阅读B篇

第23题,问Vincent 喜欢阅读 Diary of a Wimpy Kid 的原因。根据文中的because the hero’s story feels real — and really funny可知,选D项。

从以上四篇,2020年全国Ⅰ卷阅读B篇讲作者喜欢重读;2019年全国Ⅱ卷阅读D篇讲作者从小喜欢到图书馆阅读,成为妈妈后更是将阅读的乐趣传递给下一代;2018年深圳一模阅读B篇,讲述作者在旅途中与孩子共享阅读,让原本沉闷的长途之行变得有乐趣;2019年佛山二模阅读B篇则是讲述Irby成立了一个让黑人孩子爱上阅读的非营利组织的事情。几乎每一篇都谈及了阅读给人带来的乐趣,且这一点都成为考题。

阅读是人类精神食粮的来源,青年一代是否能养成阅读的习惯,从中感受阅读的乐趣,对他们未来的发展影响甚大。

遺憾的是,根据2018年全国Ⅱ卷的阅读C篇和2019届广州调研阅读B篇,我们发现越来越少的孩子能“悦”读。那么,这两篇文章又考查了什么呢?我们一起来看一下。

2018年全国Ⅱ卷阅读C篇

Teens and younger children are reading a lot less for fun, according to a Common Sense Media report published Monday.

While the decline over the past decade is steep for teen readers, some data in the report shows that reading remains a big part of many children’s lives, and indicates how parents might help encourage more reading.

According to the report’s key findings,“the proportion(比例)who say they‘hardly ever’read for fun has gone from 8 percent of 13-year-olds and 9 percent of 17-year-olds in 1984 to 22 percent and 27 percent respectively today.”

The report data shows that pleasure reading levels for younger children, ages 2-8, remain largely the same. But the amount of time spent in reading each session has declined, from closer to an hour or more to closer to a half hour per session.

When it comes to technology and reading, the report does little to counsel(建议)parents looking for data about the effect of e-readers and tablets on reading. It does point out that many parents still limit electronic reading, mainly due to concerns about increased screen time.

The most hopeful data shared in the report shows clear evidence of parents serving as examples and important guides for their kids when it comes to reading. Data shows that kids and teens who do read frequently, compared to infrequent readers, have more books in the home, more books purchased for them, parents who read more often, and parents who set aside time for them to read.

As the end of school approaches, and school vacation reading lists loom(逼近)ahead, parents might take this chance to step in and make their own summer reading list and plan a family trip to the library or bookstore.

28. What is the Common Sense Media report probably about?

A. Children’s reading habits.

B. Quality of children’s books.

C. Children’s after-class activities.

D. Parent-child relationships.

29. Where can you find the data that best supports“children are reading a lot less for fun”?

A. In paragraph 2.           B. In paragraph 3.

C. In paragraph 4.           D. In paragraph 5.

30. Why do many parents limit electronic reading?

A. E-books are of poor quality.

B. It could be a waste of time.

C. It may harm children’s health.

D. E-readers are expensive.

31. How should parents encourage their children to read more?

A. Act as role models for them.

B. Ask them to write book reports.

C. Set up reading groups for them.

D. Talk with their reading class teachers.

2019屆广州调研阅读B篇

Across the world, studies have consistently found that girls perform significantly better than boys in reading. These studies show that girls typically read more frequently than boys, and have a more positive attitude toward reading.

There are several reasons that help explain these gender-based(基于性别的)differences. Parents read more with their daughters. This sends a strong and early message that books are for girls, as well as equipping girls with a significant advantage. Recent research has found even though boys read less frequently than girls, girls still receive more encouragement to read from their parents.

So how can parents and educators help bridge this socially-engineered gap for boys’reading?

To improve boys’reading performance, parents and educators may look for ways to connect boys with reading. This has led to discussion about the importance of promoting so-called“boy-friendly”books that boys supposedly“prefer”. These are typically assumed to be non-fiction works, as many people believed that boys prefer to read non-fiction.

But this belief is not supported by recent research, which in fact suggests boys are more likely to choose to read fiction than non-fiction. Encouraging all boys to read non-fiction under the mistaken belief that it is their preference may actually be harmful. Fiction readers read more frequently and demonstrate faster language learning and higher language ability.

Besides encouraging more fiction reading, there are a number of ways that we can help connect boys with books. Firstly, don’t assume that boys of the same age have the same interests or that their interests stay the same over time. To match boys with suitable reading material, have regular discussions about reading for pleasure in order to keep up with their interests.

Schools should also provide access to libraries during lessons throughout the years of schooling. Girls visit the library in their free time more than boys, and as students move to higher grades they often have less access to libraries during class. Access to books for boys is essential to promote reading.

In addition, we should keep paper books available because research shows that boys are less likely to choose to read on screens than girls. Finally we should promote reading as an enjoyable pastime by being a role model. Let your children or students see you read for pleasure.

24. What is the main cause of the difference in boys’and girls’reading ability?

A. Social factors.

B. Teaching methods.

C. Personal preferences.

D. Psychological differences.

25. Why does the author recommend that adults regularly talk to boys about reading?

A. To persuade boys to read more often.

B. To learn what boys are most interested in.

C. To help boys improve their language ability.

D. To show that adults are good reading role models.

26. When should schools give students additional library access?

A. Before and after class.

B. At any time of the school day.

C. At regular times during class.

D. When they are in the lower grades.

27. What is the main purpose of the text?

A. To show students ways to improve their reading.

B. To explain why boys are not as good at reading as girls.

C. To urge governments to provide more reading resources.

D. To provide strategies that can help improve boys’reading ability.

从这两篇文章来看,都谈及了青少年阅读的问题,或是“悦”读量少,或是阅读量少,但同时也提出相应的解决办法,其中父母对子女阅读习惯的培养影响是排在首位,因此两篇文章都共同考查了如何帮助孩子“悦”读或阅读,答案要么是父母起榜样作用,要么是父母应与子女多沟通,都强调了父母的作用。

高考至今对“阅读”类的文章考点如上,希望考生除了熟悉考点外,也能形成良好的阅读习惯,为终身的职业发展打下基础。更希望更多的考生能“悦”读,让你们的精神世界更为丰富。

2016年全国Ⅱ卷阅读C篇

Reading can be a social activity. Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now the website BookCrossing.com turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.

Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.

Bruce Pederson, the managing director of Book Crossing, says,“The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both.”Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.

People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossers to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce Pederson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.

BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the“real”and not the virtual(虚拟). The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty five countries.

29. Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?

A. To explain what they are.

B. To introduce BookCrossing.

C. To stress the importance of reading.

D. To encourage readers to share their ideas.

30. What does the underlined word“it”in Paragraph 2 refer to?

A. The book.              B. An adventure.

C. A public place.       D. The identification number.

31. What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?

A. Meet other readers to discuss it.

B. Keep it safe in his bookcase.

C. Pass it on to another reader.

D. Mail it back to its owner.

32. What is the best title for the text?

A. Online Reading: A Virtual Tour

B. Electronic Books: A New Trend

C. A Book Group Brings Tradition Back

D. A Website Links People through Books

本文是一篇關于人们自发组织读书小组开展读书活动的报道类文章。主要报道了图书交换网站的建立和运行情况。该网站鼓励人们拿出自己的图书与他人分享,如今超过135个国家的一百多万人成为该网站的会员。

29. B 作者意图题。由题干中的in the first paragraph定位到第一段。前三句说,阅读可成为一种社会性活动,想想那些参加读书小组的人,挑选一些书去读,然后又聚在一起谈论这些书。然后作者用一个Now使话锋一转,BookCrossing这个网站给传统的读书小组翻开了新的一页。接下来的四段均是介绍该网。由此推断,作者提到读书小组的目的是引出本文要介绍的这个网站,故选B项。

30. A 代词指代题。划线词在第二段,该段详细介绍这个网站的具体做法:会员去网站登记自己愿意分享的书,网站给这本书一个身份号码并贴在书中,主人把书留在公共场所,希望这本书开始一场探险般的旅行,随着发现它的新读者到处旅行。可见,“它(it)”是指前文提到的“书(the book)”。

31. C 推理题。第二、三、四段介绍了该网站的运行方式。由这些信息,特别是Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops,可知,在看完之后,会将书放在一个公共场所,传递给另外一个读者,故选C项。

32. D 标题题。由首段末句可知,本文主要是介绍BookCrossing这个网站,因此这篇文章的标题应体现出“网站”这一关键点;又由最后一段最后一句,该网站有130多个国家的100多万会员,可知这个网站通过书把人们联系起来,故选D项。
