in the lake on which stood an improbably high diving board.It was,Im sure,the countys tallest wooden structure and no one had ever been known to jump from it.So it was quite a shock when our teacher,Mr.David,announced that he would dive off the high board that very afternoon.Word of his questionable plan was already spreading through town as Mr.David swam out to the platform.He was just a tiny,stick figure when he got there but even from such a distance the high board seemed almost to touch the clouds.Once at the top,he paced the enormously long board,then took some deep breaths and finally stood at edge.He was going to do it.Several hundred people had gathered at the shore to watch.Mr.David stood for quite a long time,then he raised his arms,took one massive bounce and launched himself into a perfect dive.It was beautiful.He fell with perfect style for what seemed minutes.The crowd fell silent.The only sound to be heard was the faint whistle of his body tearing through the air toward the water far,far below.But about three quarters of the way down he seemed to have second thoughts and began suddenly to panic,waving his arms and legs like someone having a bad dream.When he was perhaps thirty feet above the water,he gave up on waving and spread his arms and legs wide,apparently hoping that it would somehow show his fall.It didnt.He hit the water at over six hundred miles an hour.The impact was so loud that it made birds fly out of their trees three miles away.I dont think he entered the water at all.He just bounced off it,about fifteen feet back into the air.After that,he lay still on the surface,spinning like an autumn leaf.He was brought to shore by two passing fishermen in a rowboat and placed on an old blanket where he spent the rest of the afternoon.Occasionally he accepted small sips of water,but otherwise was too shock to speak.From head to toe,he was covered with deep red bruises.It was the best day of my life.1.How did the author find Mr.Davids plan to jump from the diving board?A.Heroic.B.Disappointing.C.Crazy.D.Confused.答案:C解析:推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一段中的“.Im sure,the countys tallest wooden structure and no one had ever been known to jump from it.”和第二段“So it was quite a shock when our teacher,Mr.David,announced that he would dive off the high board that very afternoon.”可知,作者認(rèn)為,沒人敢從那個跳水板上跳下去,而當(dāng)作者得知戴維要從上面跳下去的時候自然會很震驚。由此可推斷出,作者認(rèn)為戴維這樣做很瘋狂,超出了人們的預(yù)料。故選C項。2.In Paragraph 3,Mr.David is described as “a tiny,stick figure” because he was .A.very far awayB.very small and thinC.tired after swimmingD.sure to be broken答案:A解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的“.when he got there but even from such a distance the high board seemed almost to touch the clouds.”可知,觀眾覺得戴維有些瘦小,是因為戴維站得很高,離觀眾很遠(yuǎn)。故選A項。3.Why did Mr.David suddenly start swinging his arms and legs during the dive?A.He thought it was the best way to slow his fall.B.He wanted to show his courage.C.He was signaling the crowd for help.D.He lost his confidence and started to panic.答案:D解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第五段中的“But about three quarters of the way down he seemed to have second thoughts and began suddenly to panic,waving his arms and legs like someone having a bad dream.”可知,戴維在跳的過程中突然開始晃動他的四肢,是因為他失去自信,變得有些恐慌。故選D項。B(20162017重慶一中高二檢測)Climate change has been blamed for killer hurricanes,sea level rise,and drought,but a new report suggests the effects of climate change might hit the worlds coffee supply.Up to 70 percent of the worlds coffee supply could be threatened over the next 66 years,according to a new study by researchers at Englands Royal Botanic Gardens.Nearly 100 percent of the worlds Arabica coffee growing regions could become unsuitable for the plant by 2080,according to the study.Beans from Arabica coffee plants account for about 70 percent of the worlds coffee,but the plant also has to be grown under strict weather conditions:they grow well at temperatures between 64 and 70 degrees Celsius,and are highly influenced by frost or temperatures higher than 73 degrees Celsius.With temperatures estimated to increase by between 1.8 and 4 degrees Celsius by the end of the century,the fragile plant might become increasingly expensive and difficult to grow,especially in places such as Ethiopia and Kenya.In that worst case,nearly all of the worlds native Arabica coffee would die out.Under more conservative(保守的)estimates,about 65 percent of the regions used to grow the coffee would become unsuitable for it.The evidence from coffee farmers and coffee growing regions around the world is that they are already suffering from the influences of increased warming.Some farmers would likely be able to move their operations to other areas or would be able to overcome climate change with artificial cooling techniques,but wild Arabica is generally considered to be much more suitable for making high-quality coffee.If Arabica becomes impossible to raise in its native areas,it could do serious damage to the economies of the mainly third-world countries in which it grows.Coffee is the worlds most popular drink and is the second most-traded product in the world,behind oil.4.What does the passage mainly talk about?A.Climate change affects people in many ways.B.More and more attention has been paid to climate change.C.The worlds coffee supply could be threatened by climate change.D.The growing conditions of Arabica coffee have been improved recently.答案:C解析:主旨大意題。根據(jù)全文內(nèi)容,尤其是第一段可判斷出,本文主要介紹的是一項新的研究報告,即氣候變化將會威脅到咖啡豆的生長,全世界的咖啡供應(yīng)將會受到影響。故選C項。5.What can be learned from Paragraph 2 and Paragraph 3?A.According to the study,by 2080 nowhere can be suitable for Arabica coffee growing.B.65 percent of the worlds coffee gets raw materials from Arabica coffee plants.C.Arabica coffee plants will grow well at temperatures lower than 60 degrees Celsius.D.Coffee farmers are the biggest victims of climate change.答案:A解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段中的“Nearly 100 percent of the worlds Arabica coffee growing regions could become unsuitable for the plant by 2080,according to the study.”可知,根據(jù)這項新的研究報告,到2080年,將沒有地方適合種植Arabica(阿拉比卡)咖啡豆。故選A項。6.In order to solve the problem of Arabica coffee plants,some farmers .A.would make efforts to produce high-quality coffeeB.would bring in artificial cooling techniquesC.would tend to move to some warm placesD.would grow more wild Arabica答案:B解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“Some farmers would likely be able to move their operations to other areas or would be able to overcome climate change with artificial cooling techniques.”可知,一些種植戶想通過人工降溫技術(shù)來解決無法種植阿拉比卡咖啡豆這一問題。故選B項。7.What is the result if Arabica coffee has less production?A.Coffee will replace oil to be the first most-traded commodity.B.Coffee is likely to become less popular than before.C.Some countries will suffer great economic losses.D.Farmers will plant other crops instead of coffee.答案:C解析:細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“If Arabica becomes impossible to raise in its native areas,it could do serious damage to the economies of the mainly third-world countries in which it grows.”可知,如果將來種植戶無法種植阿拉比卡咖啡豆,原來種植這種咖啡豆的國家的經(jīng)濟(jì)將遭受嚴(yán)重?fù)p失。故選C項。五、語篇填空(20162017湖南瀏陽一中高二檢測)One day when I was five years old,my
