课下作业（三）高考语篇提能练

Ⅰ.阅读理解

esident.As he left home in Springfield, Illinois, Lincoln handed his

son Robert a black oilskin bag, and told him to keep it carefully.He did

not tell Robert what was inside.

Unknown to his seventeen-year-old son, Lincoln had placed his

newly written inaugural_speech in the bag.It was to be the most

important speech he ever made.And it was his only copy.

When the train arrived in Indianapolis — the first stop on the long journey — Lincoln rode off in a special car without his family.Robert walked from the station to the local hotel.

When Robert arrived at the hotel, he learned that his family's rooms were not ready.So he asked that the bag should be held at the front desk.Then he went off to be with friends.

On his return, Robert found his father waiting anxiously.Where was the bag?

Robert explained that he had checked it at the desk.

An angry Lincoln sped to the hall and leaped over the front desk.He began searching

through a huge pile of luggage.

As puzzled guests looked on, Lincoln dragged (硬拽) from the pile a familiar-looking black bag and opened it, only to find someone else's dirty clothes.It was the wrong bag.Back he went to the pile.

At last he found the valuable bag and the speech inside.Lincoln handed it to his son and said strictly，“Now you keep it！”

It was the one and only time, Robert said, that his father had ever lost his temper at him.But with his speech found and his birthday yet to be celebrated, Abraham Lincoln grew cheerful.As Robert proudly recalled，“Father did not scold.”

语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。当别人让你失望的时候，你该怎么办？本文作者提出了几点建议。

1．选B上文指出，在生活中，有时候别人会让你感到失望，这是无法避免的。由空

后的But可知，本空与后面一句为意义上的转折关系。尽管你不能阻止别人让你失望，但你可以不让这样的失望阻碍你过快乐、成功的生活。

2．选E空后一句中的them即指该选项中提到的sadness, anxiety or anger等情感，故选E项。

3．选G本段首句提出建议：找出让你感到失望的原因。本空内容承接上句内容：想一想你的哪些需要没有被对方满足。你需要理解、支持、承诺，还是关心？本段最后一句中的the unmet need也是提示。

4．选A本空为本段的中心句：判断你是否应该大声说出来。本空后的两句都围绕speak up 这一方法展开说明，因此，speak up为关键词。

5．选D上句指出，即使你清楚地告诉他们你的失望，有的人还是不会负责任，依旧不改变。那你生活中还需要这样的人吗？你最好与他们划清界限，由此逻辑可判断选D项。

Ⅲ.语法填空

语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。随着年龄的增长，大部分人的思考能力和记忆能力开始退化，但有些人的大脑衰老速度会慢一些，他们被称为“超级老人”！

1．worsen考查动词。worse为形容词，表示“更坏的，更糟的”，此处不定式中应用其动词形式worsen，表示“(使某事物)更糟，恶化”。

2．that/which考查定语从句。此处that/which age more slowly是定语从句，修饰先行词brains, 关系代词that/which在从句中作主语。

3．probably考查副词。空格中所填单词在句中修饰谓语动词，需用probable的副词形式。

4．for考查介词。(be) responsible for ...是习惯搭配，意思是“对……负责”。

5．thicker考查形容词比较级。此处应用形容词thick的比较级形式作表语，与一般人的情况作比较。

6．Looking考查非谓语动词。Looking at the cortex of their brains是现在分词短语作状语，分词动作look与逻辑主语we之间是主动关系。

7．an考查冠词。科学家说，超级老人有很多共同之处，包括积极的生活方式。这里用不定冠词表示泛指。

8．are surrounded考查动词的时态和语态。surround与主语they之间为被动关系，故用被动语态，be surrounded with ...意思是“被……围绕、包围”；这里说的是一般性情况，用一般现在时。

9．optimism考查名词。空格中所填单词在句中作介词for的宾语且前面有物主代词their修饰，故用optimistic的名词形式。

10．skills考查名词复数。此处skill为可数名词，表示“技能”，并且前面没有限定词，故应用其复数形式。
