‎2019年人教高考英语一轮练习题：选修8U4含答案 ‎ 一、阅读理解。‎ Whenever something looks interesting or beautiful, there is a natural desire of us to capture(捕捉) and preserve it—which means, in this day and age, that we are likely to reach for our phones to take a picture.‎ Though this would seem to be an ideal solution, there are two big problems associated with taking pictures. Firstly, we are likely to be so busy taking pictures that we forget to look at the world whose beauty and interest encourage us to take a photograph in the first place. And secondly, because we feel the pictures are safely stored on our phones, we never get around to looking at them, so sure are we that we’ll get around to them one day.‎ The first person to notice the problems was the English art critic(评论家), John Ruskin. He was a keen traveler who realized that most tourists make a poor job of noticing or remembering the beautiful things they see. He argued that humans have a natural tendency to respond to beauty and desire to have it, but there are better and worse expressions of this desire. At worst, we get into buying souvenirs or taking photographs. But, in Ruskin’s eyes, there’s just one thing we should do—attempting to draw the interesting things we see, regardless of whether we happen to have any talent for doing so.‎ Ruskin said, “Drawing can teach us to see: to notice properly rather than gaze absentmindedly.In the process of recreating with our own hands what lies before our eyes, we naturally move from a position of observing beauty in a loose way to one where we acquire a deep understanding of its parts.”‎ Ruskin deplored the blindness and hurry of modern tourists, especially those who prided themselves on traveling around the whole Europe in a week by train, “No changing of places at a hundred miles an hour will make us stronger, happier, or wiser. There was always more in the world than men could see, if they ever walked slowly. The really precious things are thoughts and sights, not pace.”‎ ‎【解题导语】　本文主要讨论了旅游中如何享受美景以及游客普遍存在的问题。‎ ‎1．According to Paragraph 2, when taking pictures, people tend to ．‎ A．forget to appreciate something attractive on the spot B．find it hard to learn skills of taking good pictures C．find a good way to keep things in their minds D．have a chance to meet the challenge of new technology A　解析：细节理解题。根据文章第二段的第二句可知，人们忙着拍照而忘了欣赏风景。‎ ‎2．According to Ruskin, what should travelers do to best express their appreciation of and desire for something beautiful?‎ A．To speak it out openly.‎ B．To photograph it instantly.‎ C．To purchase it immediately.‎ D．To paint it directly.‎ D　解析：细节理解题。根据第三段的最后一句可知，Ruskin认为，旅游者把自己看到的美景直接画下来就是对美景欣赏的最好表达。‎ ‎3．From the fourth paragraph, we can infer that Ruskin encourages us to be ．‎ A．considerate and determined B．active and adventurous C．creative and thoughtful D．sensitive and ambitious C　解析：推理判断题。根据第四段的“In the process of recreating with our own hands ... we acquire a deep understanding of its parts.”可推知，Ruskin鼓励我们要有创造性，对景观要有深刻的理解。‎ ‎4．The underlined word “deplored” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to “ ”．‎ A．appreciated　　　　　 B．criticized C．favored D．ignored B　解析：词义猜测题。根据最后一段的“the blindness and hurry of modern tourists”并结合Ruskin的主张可推知，deplore意为“批判，不赞成”，故选B。‎ 二、单句语法填空 ‎1．The mistakes in your homework shouldn’t ___________ (overlook), or you’ll keep them forever.‎ 答案：be overlooked ‎2．Generally ___________ (speak), tourists should first visit cities like Beijing, Shanghai and Xi’an.‎ 答案：speaking ‎3．He has some acquaintance ___________ German, but he doesn’t speak it fluently.‎ 答案：with ‎4．If you think you can drink so much without damaging your health, then you’re ___________ (mistake)．‎ 答案：mistaken ‎5．He was robbed last night, but ___________ (fortune) he didn’t have much on him then.‎ 答案：fortunately ‎6．We are at your service.
