12、意那些描写所处氛围的语言及表达情感、态度或观点的词语或句子。(3)结合平时所积累的有关英语国家的文化传统、风俗习惯等的背景知识来进行合理的推断。(4)关注首段首尾句，推断文章主题，确定作者观点。2.要分清选项中的表示支持或肯定、中立、反对或否定的词语，再以此对照文章内容。下面是一些常见的有关作者情感、态度的词语：(1)表示支持或肯定的词语 favorable赞同的，有利的；positive积极的，肯定的，确实的；supportive支持的；approval赞成，正式批准；reasonable合理的；enthusiastic热情的等。(2)表示反对或否定的词语critical批评的；negati

13、ve否定的，消极的；disapproval不赞成；impractical不实际的；radical激进的；prejudiced有成见的，偏颇的等。例如：【真题感悟】中第30题，根据最后一段第一句“Friedman points out that the green economy(经济) is a chance to keep American strength.”可知，Friedman认为绿色经济是使美国保持实力的一个机遇。由此可知，他对美国的未来充满了希望。故选C项。A(2019如皋市高三二模)Our society is generally becoming one of 6giant e

24、present workB.they have no real satisfaction or interest in lifeC.they are confronted with the fundamental realitiesD.they are deprived of individuality and independence答案D解析推理判断题。文章第二段点明了工人和雇员忧虑的原因，分析上下文可知，其真正原因是情感与理智上独立的个体、富有创造性的人的生存状态被忽视，分析选项可知，A和B只是部分原因，不全面；C项与文章内容相悖。故选D项。3.From the passage we c

26、满竞争的生存环境，因而都生活在各种各样的忧虑与压力之中，所以都无幸福可言，只有远离这个充满竞争的社会的人才可能获得幸福，故选D。4.The authors attitude towards industrialism might best be summarized as one of .A.approval B.dissatisfactionC.suspicion D.sensibility答案B解析观点态度题。文章最后一段提到，作者建议将社会体系由官僚主义下的产业体系过渡到人道主义的产业体系，由此可知，作者对现有产业体系的态度是不满的。dissatisfaction不满意。故选B。B(20

27、19南京高三三模)Babies have an astonishing talent that adults entirely lose.By the age of one，they can recognise the 3significant noises around them and group them into a language.11When we have lost this 7capacity as adults，it becomes enormously difficult to 4distinguish between sounds that are glaringly

28、different to a native speaker.It all sounds Greek to us.This is because the range of possible sounds that humans use to convey meaning may be as high as 2,000，but few languages use more than 100 and even then the significant noisesthe phonemes(音素) of a languageeach cover a range of sounds and so vag

29、ue 5distinctions which would change the meaning of a word in other languages.But where do these phonemes come from and why do they 8shift over time？New research suggests that the apparently arbitrary distribution of some sounds around the world may be partially explained by diet.This is unexpected.W

30、ed rather think of language as the product of our thought，rather than of the arrangement of our teeth.9In reality，though，any given language must be both.Hunter gatherer languages seldom use the sounds known as labiodentals(唇齿音)those such as f and vthat are made by touching the lower lip with the upp

31、er teeth.Only two of the hundreds of Australian aboriginal languages use them，for example.But in cultures that have discovered farming，these consonants(辅音) are much more common.The argument goes that farmers eat more cooked food and more dairy than hunter gatherers.Either way，they need to chew much

32、less，and to bite less with their front teeth.So farmers grew up with smaller lower jaws and more of an overbite than their ancestors who had to bite through harder foods.It became easier for them to make the labiodental consonants instead of purely labial(唇音) ones：one example is that f came to take

33、the place of p.Romans said “pater” but English speakers (unless theyre Rees-Moggs) say “father”.Beyond these particular changes，the story highlights the way in which everything distinctively human is both material and spiritual：speech must combine sound and meaning，and the meaning cant exist or be t

34、ransmitted without a real object.But neither can it be reduced to the purely physical，as our inability to understand or even to recognise foreign languages makes clear.The food we eat shapes our jaws，and our jaws in turn shape the sounds of our language.The ease with which we eat probably shapes our

35、 thought too，as anyone who has suffered toothache could testify.12What we eat may have shaped the sounds of our language，but how we eat changes how we feel and what we use language to express.A family meal is very different from a sandwich at the office desk，even if the calorie is the same.Food has

36、purposes and meanings far beyond keeping us alive and pleasing the Palate (味觉).语篇解读这是一篇说明文。主要叙述了人们一直以来认为语言是思想的产物，但是有新的研究表明饮食对于语言也会产生一些影响。且以f和v的发音为例，揭示了农民们发“f”和“v”音的原因是他们喜欢吃更多的熟食。同时这也强调了人类特有的一切都是物质和精神的结合：语言必须把声音和意义结合起来，没有真实的物体，意义就不可能存在或传播。5.Compared with adults，babies could more easily .A.create sign

38、following factors help shape language?A.Lips and teeth.B.Jobs and habits.C.Age and regions.D.Food and thinking.答案D解析细节理解题。根据第二段内容，尤其是其中的diet，product of thought和“In reality，though，any given language must be both.”可知，食物和思想都有助于塑造语言。因此答案选择D。7.The reason for farmers making sounds of “f” and “v” is .A.enj

39、oying more cooked foodsB.biting more with front teethC.constantly chewing harder foodsD.growing up with lager lower jaws答案A解析细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The argument goes that farmers eat more cooked food and more dairy than hunter gatherers.”可知，农民比狩猎采集者吃更多的熟食和奶制品，即农民们发“f”和“v”音的原因是他们喜欢吃更多的熟食。故选A。8.By writing this

40、 passage，the author intends to reveal .A.jaws help shape our thoughtB.food determines our thoughtC.diet has some influence on languageD.language consists of sound and meaning答案C解析观点态度题。根据第二段中的“New research suggests that the apparently arbitrary distribution of some sounds around the world may be par

41、tially explained by diet.”和文章最后的“Food has purposes and meanings far beyond keeping us alive and pleasing the Palate (味觉).”可知，作者写这篇文章想要揭示的是：饮食对语言有一定的影响，故选C。.障碍词汇突破(一)阅读下列句子，并根据句意猜测画线部分的意思1.Fresh air is fundamental to good health.根本的，基础的2.Use your intelligence，and you are sure to achieve something.聪明才

70、did better than others，however.“We need to determine in future research what are the underlying factors，” Okubo said.Cardiac arrest “is the abrupt loss of heart function，and if appropriate steps are not taken immediately，it most often is fatal，” explained Gregg Fonarow，a professor of cardiovascular

71、medicine and science at the David Geffen School of Medicine at the University of California at Los Angeles.He also is co-director of the UCLA Preventive Cardiology Program.“Each year in the United States，more than 350,000 cardiac arrests occur outside the hospital setting.”Altogether，the researchers

74、0 out of 87 patients，while the best had favorable functional recovery in 11 out of 54 patients，or 20 percent.“These findings suggest there may be important differences in the quality of resuscitation efforts among different EMS agencies，” Fonarow said in an email.Also，he said，“More layperson interve

75、ntions(非正式人员干预)such as timely CPR(cardiopulmonary resuscitation 心肺复苏术) and more EMS personnel responding to cardiac arrest patients were related to better outcomes.”“These findings suggest that dissemination of best practices and use of formal quality improvement programs by community-based EMS agen

77、 arrest，” he said.“The best advice that might save lives of loved ones if a cardiac arrest occurs is to learn CPR.Anyone can and everyone should learn CPR.”语篇解读本文是一篇说明文。一项新的研究表明，心脏骤停是否能够存活，至少在一定程度上取决于紧急医疗服务(EMS)机构为你提供的治疗。根据发表在美国医学会心脏病学(JAMA Cardiology)上的研究，研究人员发现，根据EMS机构提供的初始治疗，心脏骤停存活率存在很大差异。14.What
