Maybe yes, maybe no. But they may be an inspiration for you.‎ The Tree Lady Kate Sessions was an American botanist and landscape architect closely associated with San Diego, California. After becoming the first woman to graduate from the University of California, Berkeley, she took a job as a teacher far south in the dry desert town of San Diego. Kate decided that San Diego needed trees more than anything else. Therefore this young woman singlehandedly started a movement transforming the town into the leafy, gardenfilled place as it is today.‎ The Snowflake (雪花) Man Wilson Bentley is one of the first known photographers of snowflakes. His enthusiasm for taking photos of snowflakes began from his boyhood and was often misunderstood in his time, but his determination revealed two important truths: no two snowflakes are alike; and each one is surprisingly beautiful. In 1931, he worked with William J. Humphreys of the U．S. Weather Bureau to publish Snow Crystals, a book containing 2, 500 photographs.‎ The Father of His Country By the late 1760s, George Washington had experienced firsthand the effects of rising taxes imposed(征收) on American colonists by the British, and came to believe that it was in the best interests of the colonists to declare independence from England. During the American War of Independence, he led the colonial forces to victory. In 1787, he was elected president of the Convention that wrote the U．S. Constitution. Two years later, Washington became America's first president. His retirement from office after two terms established a tradition that lasted until 1940, when Franklin Delano Roosevelt won a third term. The 22nd Amendment (1951) now limits the president to two elected terms.‎ ‎【语篇解读】　本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍了三位鼓舞人心的名人。‎ ‎1．Who made a great contribution to beautifying an area?‎ A．George Washington. ‎ B．Wilson Bentley.‎ C．Kate Sessions. ‎ D．William J.

I'd been out of high school ‎ for four years, but my high school headmaster, Mr. Gardner, invited me to a Valentine's Day dance party at school. The thought of seeing my former teachers was exciting. So I agreed.‎ ‎ When Friday came, I cleaned up, dressed up and drove to the high school gym. I chatted with my teachers and approached Mr. Gardner to thank him before leaving. Just then, the band started playing and a young girl stood up to sing. One look at her and I was crazyI had never seen such a beautiful girl!‎ I asked Mr. Gardner who she was, and he answered, “That's Marilyn Riley, Cut Riley's daughter.” I was shocked to say the least. They lived just around the corner from me. I walked across the gym floor to introduce myself, “Hi, I'm Jack Joseph.” ‎ ‎“I know who you are，” was her nottoofriendly response.‎ ‎“Would you like to dance？” I asked. “No! I'm working，” she shot back.‎ ‎“Can I call you next week for a movie date？” I asked. “No” was her response.‎ For the next month I phoned, trying to set up a date. She always had the same answer: No. Then one rainy afternoon in March as I was driving home after basketball practice, I saw Marilyn, walking with no umbrella, no raincoat and no hat. I pulled alongside her and asked if she needed a ride, half expecting her to say no. Instead, she stepped over the roadside and sat down on the seat next to me. It was only a few blocks to her house, but after pulling into her driveway we talked for 45 minutes. It was magic from then on.‎ ‎【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者海军退伍之后受母校校长邀请参加情人节舞会，遇到一位女孩并与其交往的故事。‎ ‎4．Why did Jack decide to attend the party?‎ A．The party was held to welcome him back home.‎ B．Marilyn would be introduced to him at the party.‎ C．He could meet some of his former teachers there.‎ D．They gathered there to celebrate Valentine's Day.‎ 答案与解析：C　细节理解题。根据第一段的“The thought of seeing my former teachers was exciting.

It marks the approach of summer.‎ The English developed their May Day festival from the Roman festival called Floralia. In the festival of Floralia, the Romans gathered flowers to honor the goddess of spring, Flora. In the Middle Ages, May Day became the favorite holiday of many English villages. People gathered flowers to decorate their homes and churches, sang spring songs and chose a king and a queen of May. Villagers danced around a tall pole fixed upright in the ground, called a maypole, each holding the end of a ribbon ‎ attached to the top of the pole. They tied the ribbons around the pole until it was covered with bright colors. They collected dew (露水) on May Day morning and washed their faces with it because they believed that the dew on the day had the magic power to regain youth.‎ Nowadays in Britain people no longer attach great importance to the day, but in some towns and villages people still celebrate it by choosing the May Queen and dancing around the maypole. May Queen is a girl selected as the most beautiful girl on May Day. She is usually crowned with flowers and often driven in procession through the street. In the United States, the day has never been celebrated with the same enthusiasm as in Britain.‎ But in many American towns and cities, children celebrate the day with dancing and singing. They often gather flowers in handmade paper baskets and hang them on the doorknobs of the homes of their friends' and neighbors' on May Day morning. At May Day parties, children select May Queen, dance around the maypole, and sing May Day songs.‎ ‎【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了欧洲国家的传统节日“五朔节”。‎ ‎8．What do we know about the May Day in Britain in the Middle Ages?‎ ‎ A．People dressed in bright colors.‎ ‎ B．People celebrated it with enthusiasm.‎ ‎ C．People presented flowers to the goddess of spring.‎ ‎ D．People stayed at home instead of going to churches.‎ 答案与解析：B　细节理解题。根据第二段内容特别是第三、四句“In the Middle Ages, May Day became the favorite holiday of many English villages. People gathered flowers to decorate their homes and churches, sang spring songs and chose a king and a queen of May”可知，在中世纪，英国人通过举行各种活动，热情地庆祝五朔节，故B项正确。‎ ‎9．Why did people wash their faces with dew on May Day?‎ ‎ A．To bring good luck. B．To become prettier.‎ ‎ C．To get magic power. D．To get young again.‎ 答案与解析：D　细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“They ‎ collected dew(露水)on May Day morning and washed their faces with it because they believed that the dew on the day had the magic power to regain youth.”可知，人们在五朔节用露水洗脸，是因为他们相信露水在当天有恢复青春的魔力，故D项正确。‎ ‎10．Paragraph 3 is mainly developed ________.‎ A．by comparison B．by space C．by process D．by classification 答案与解析：A　考查写作方法。根据第三段第一句“Nowadays in Britain people no longer attach great importance to the day, but in some towns and villages people still celebrate it by choosing the May Queen and dancing around the maypole”可知，如今在英国，在一些城镇和村庄，人们仍然通过选择“五朔节女王”和围绕五月柱跳舞来庆祝五朔节；根据第三段最后一句“In the United States, the day has never been celebrated with the same enthusiasm as in Britain”可知，在美国，人们从来没有以像英国人那样的热情来庆祝这一节日。据此可以判断，该段是通过比较美国和英国如何庆祝该节日展开的，故A项正确。‎ ‎11．Nowadays, many American children celebrate May Day with lots of activities EXCEPT ______.‎ A．hanging flowers on the doorknobs of their friends' homes B．selecting May Queen and dancing around the maypole C．gathering flowers in handmade paper baskets and singing May Day songs D．collecting dew on May Day morning and washing faces 答案与解析：D　细节理解题。根据第四段第二、三句“They often gather flowers in handmade paper baskets and hang them on the doorknobs of the homes of their friends' and neighbors' on May Day morning. At May Day parties，children select May Queen, dance around the maypole, and sing May Day songs”可知，如今在美国，孩子们通过选择“五朔节女王”、围绕五月柱跳舞、将花篮挂在邻居家或朋友家的门把手上、演唱五朔节的歌曲来庆祝这一节日，故排除A、B、C项；根据第二段最后一句“They collected dew(露水)on May Day morning and washed their faces with it because they believed that the dew on the day had the magic power to regain youth”可知，用露水洗脸是中世纪英国人的做法，而不是现在美国儿童的做法，故选D项。‎ D ‎(2018·陕西省高三教学质量检测试题(一))‎ Many people have bought insurance, either life or property(财产), commercial or compulsory. Yet some people know little about it and some even misunderstand its nature and function.‎ Insurance is the sharing of risks. Nearly everyone is exposed to a risk of some sort. The house owner, for example, knows that his property can be damaged by fire; the shipowner knows that his ships may be lost at sea; the breadwinner knows that he may die at an early age and leave his family poorer. On the other hand, not every house is damaged by fire nor every ship is lost at sea. If these persons each put a small amount of money into a pool, there will be enough to meet the needs of the few who do suffer losses. In other words, the losses of the few are met from the contributions of the many. This is the basis of insurance. Those who pay the contribution are known as the insured and those who manage the_pool_of_contributions as insurers.‎ The legal basis of all insurance is the policy. This is a printed form of contract on a piece of paper in best quality. It states that every year the insured shall pay an amount of money, which is called the premium; in return, the insurer will pay an amount of money or compensation for losses if the risk or event insured against actually happens.‎ The premium for insurance naturally depends upon how likely the risk is to happen, as suggested by past experience. If companies fix their premiums too high, there will be more competition in their area of insurance and they may lose business. On the other hand, if they make the premium too low, they will lose money and may even have to drop out of business. So the ordinary forces of supply and demand keep premiums at a level satisfactory to both the insurer and the insured.‎ ‎【语篇解读】　本文主要对保险进行了简要介绍。‎ ‎12．The underlined phrase in Para. 2 most probably means ________.‎ A．money paid by the insurers B．each premium C．money paid by all those insured D．the cost of administering insurance 答案与解析：C'考查词义猜测。根据第二段的“If these persons each put a small amount of money into a pool，there will be enough to meet the needs of the few who do suffer losses”可推知，the pool of contributions表示投保人所投的钱。‎ ‎13．Insurance premiums do not become too high because ________.‎ A．not many people insure themselves B．premiums depend on the risk of losses C．insurers have to be more competitive D．insurance companies can never lose money 答案与解析：C'细节理解题。根据最后一段的“If companies fix their premiums too high, there will be more competition in their area of insurance and they may lose business”可知，保险公司也有竞争，因此保险费不能定得太高，否则就没有竞争力，也就意味着可能会失去业务，故选C。‎ ‎14．According to the passage, insurance business gains profit because ________.‎ A．more and more people buy insurance B．the firms have sound management C．the premium is increased year by year D．only a few of those insured suffer losses 答案与解析：D'推理判断题。根据第二段的“On the other hand，not every house is damaged by fire nor every ship is lost at sea”“enough to meet the needs of the few who do suffer losses”和“the losses of”可推知，保险公司获利是因为只有少部分投保人遭受意外风险。‎ ‎15．The purpose of the passage is to ________.‎ A．explain an insurance policy B．introduce insurance business C．persuade people to be insured D．warn people of possible losses 答案与解析：B　考查写作意图。文章第一段点题，再结合全文的整体内容可推知，本文主要介绍的是保险业务，故选B。‎ Ⅱ.七选五 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ ‎(2018·成都市高中毕业班第三次诊断性检测)‎ Do you know that intelligence can be developed?
