新高考英语时文阅读高三专版（含答案解析及全文翻译） A The life of FM-2030, a transhumanist (超人文主义者) who believed humans will be able to end natural death in the future using technology, is explored in a new documentary. The film, titled‘2030’, was released late last month and is available across multiple streaming platforms. It was made by British filmmaker Johnny Boston who interviewed a range of FM-2030’s acquaintances and scientific experts. Transhumanists believe humans can and should use emerging future technology to greatly enhance their natural abilities. These technologies could include robotics, AI, gene therapy preventing the ageing process. This could radically change what it means to be a member of our species. FM-2030 was born in Brussels in 1930 named Fereidoun M. Esfandiary. The son of an Iranian diplomat, he later changed his legal name to mark his belief that by 2030 we will be ageless and everyone will have an excellent chance to live forever. FM-2030 wrote a number of books around life extension and transhumanist topics, and is widely regarded as one of the founding fathers of the modern transhumanist movement. After his death in 2000, FM-2030’s body was placed in cryonic suspension in Arizona. Mr Boston commented: “I met FM-2030 and that was his legal name when I was about 11 or 12 years old. He’d come to London with his partner at the time and they stayed with us. This was in the early 80s when he had these really off the wall ideas that we were going to live on indefinitely and that there was going to be a much more progressive politics. He talked about we were going to communicate brain to brain. There was going to be a machine that you could put in various characteristics and it was going to print stuff.” Mr Boston went on to produce a number of videos outlining FM-2030’s ideas. He did a series of films called the future of democracy that came out of talks that FM had done. He said,“FM really talks about what the future holds in terms of how we govern ourselves. He thinks we’ve got to useAI.” 1. What will happen in the future according to transhumanists? A. Humans will die in a natural state. B. Humans’life span will remain limited. C. Humans will not need language any longer. D. Humans’abilities will be largely improved by technologies. 2. Why did Fereidoun M. Esfandiary change his name to FM-2030? A. Because his father forced him to do so. B. Because he didn’t like his former name at all. C. Because he wanted to flag his transhumanist faith. D. Because he thought human would end natural death in 2030. 3. What does the underlined phrase “off the wall”in Paragraph 5 mean? A. Dull. B.Ambiguous. C. Ridiculous. D. Upset. 4. Which can be the best title for the passage? A. The Uncertain Future. B. The Film Called 2030. C. The Ideas of Transhumanists.
中考散文阅读及答案合集
一、桐花声里燕子飞 郑小琼 ①院子里有数棵梧桐树、榆树、槐树，以及几株苦楝树，春天来了一段时间了，那些榆、槐、楝早已舒展开已绷了一个冬天的愁容，只有临近水井那几株梧桐树还没有一点儿绿意。春风又吹过了几天，那些树早已盛装了，这时梧桐树才像一个姗姗来迟的女子一样，慢慢从闺房里探出头来。牙瓣儿的楝花已洒满了整个院子，淡嫩淡嫩地铺着，你拿起扫帚开始清扫它们，等你清扫干净的时候，在不经意的抬头间，你发现井台边那几株桐树已露出了花骨儿了。又下了一场春雨，几个暖暖的春风天，那些桐花便一簇簇一束束的开了。 ②村子里人忙着到庄稼地里去了，给隔冬的小麦锄草，或是准备牵牛耕田，浸种下泥，没有一个人有空闲去注意井边那几株桐树开花了。它们站在井台边，默不作声，寂寞地开着，老去，落下。幸好去年相识的几只燕子飞回了，它们落在那桐树上喃喃说过不停，出了一趟远门，见了一些世面，燕子们有很多路上有趣的事儿同这位老友说。 ③六岁那年，一个小心，我的腿让开水烫伤，疼痛难忍。惊动正在梧桐树下洗衣的母亲，她飞快地跑了过来，顺手从树枝上捋了一把桐花，放在手中揉搓，从那嫩嫩的花瓣儿搓出一些汁来，母亲把它敷在我伤口上，那尖酸的疼痛渐渐淡了下去。如今隔母亲在千里之外，离屋后梧桐也有千里之遥，再深的疼痛也没有母亲与梧桐了，只能自己贴上那没有一点人情味的创可贴了。 ④在故乡，无论谁家，只要生了个女儿，便总会在屋前屋后栽种数棵梧桐，以求女儿成凤凰时，将有梧桐栖，或者女儿们长大以后，用梧桐木做嫁妆。母亲说，我家的井边的那几棵便是生我之时种的，它们在家里院落里开开落落有二十多年了。一直没有引来凤凰栖，却引数只燕子在上面筑巢安家。母亲一直说，燕子是奔波命，年来年去，南来北往的奔波着，我何尝不是一只奔波的燕子，但是人在异乡，也没有梧桐可栖。前些时候收到母亲的来信，说我的年龄不小，家里的那几株梧桐树也有那么大了，是不是该砍了做嫁妆了。我没有回答母亲，只是在电话中问她梧桐树上的燕子们可好。 ⑤昨夜又是一场春雨，想来在昨夜风雨中，故乡井边那几棵梧桐树又有多少桐花让风雨捋落下来，它们该顺着那涓涓细雨汇成的流水，入河，入江，入海，消融在世界的尽头。那在风雨中的燕子是否安好？ 1.（2分）在“我”的故乡，为什么有些人家会在房前屋后栽种一些梧桐树？ 2.（2分）细读全文，说说“我”和燕子有何相似之处，为何作者说“我何尝不是一只奔波的燕子”？ 3.（2分）请从修辞的角度分析下面语句的妙处。 春风又吹过了几天，那些树早已盛装了，这时梧桐树才像一个姗姗来迟的女子一样，慢慢从闺房里探出头来。

新高考赢在阅读高二英语时文阅读专版（含原文翻译及答案解析） A Josh Gad's Olaf showed insanely hot skills singing "Unmeltable Me" for "Frozen II". But the hilarious (欢闹的) tune never made it into the animated hit: It was cut from the movie after his vocals were recorded and storyboards had been drawn up. The missing: “Unmeltable Me”is revealed now at https://www.360docs.net/doc/347563994.html,, ahead of the home release of “Frozen II”, which features the deleted scene as an extra. The ditty was the first song written for the sequel. The new song features Gad's Olaf singing style, playing harpsichord (羽管键琴) accompaniment. The instrument was requested by directors for comedic reasons. The harpsichord arrangement made it funny and different. The filmmakers originally wanted “Unmeltable Me”to explain an important story point –why Olaf no longer needed the magical “flurry”cloud Elsa had created at the end of "Frozen" to keep the snowman from melting in warm weather. Creating the flurry effect was so difficult for the animators that the directors decided Elsa would have perfected a permafrost coating for Olaf by the second movie. The scene features Olaf doing just about everything to show off his new permafrost coating, from sticking a lit candle into his head to placing his head in a Sterno-heated buffet tray. Olaf's audience in the scene is a group of dignitaries who have traveled to Arendelle from around the world to meet the powerful Elsa at a state dinner. Elsa and Anna are held up, so Olaf fills time entertaining the assembled guests with the song. Sadly, “Unmeltable Me”was cut before it could be fully animated. Gad’s Olaf still received his big song in “Frozen 2”singing “When IAm Older”happily.“Unmeltable Me' is definitely fun, but that’s show business,”says Lopez, who especially loves how Olaf ends the song on an unusual high note. 1. What can we learn from the song “Unmeltable Me”in the first paragraph? A. The song “Unmeltable Me”was sung by Elsa. B. The song can make this movie into a animated hit. C. The song was created for the movie. D. The song was recorded in the movie at last. 2. What does the underlined word “revealed”in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Show. B. Hide. C. Create. D. Delete. 3. What is the purpose of using permafrost coating? A. To entertain the audience. B. To prevent Olaf from melting. C. To make the movie funny. D. To explain show business. 4. What can we know from the passage? A. This movie is directed by Josh Gad. B. Olaf likes his new permafrost coating. C. Josh Gad’s attitude is passive because his song was cut from the movie. D. The scene of the song is not mentioned in the article. B Google’s Search Engine Can Recommend Your Favorite Shows and Movies

The film, titled ‘2030’, was released late last month and is available across multiple streaming platforms. It was made by British filmmaker Johnny Boston who interviewed a range of FM-2030’s acquaintances and scientific experts. Transhumanists believe humans can and should use emerging future technology to greatly enhance their natural abilities. These technologies could include robotics, AI, gene therapy preventing the ageing process. This could radically change what it means to be a member of our species. FM-2030 was born in Brussels in 1930 named Fereidoun M. Esfandiary. The son of an Iranian diplomat, he later changed his legal name to mark his belief that by 2030 we will be ageless and everyone will have an excellent chance to live forever. FM-2030 wrote a number of books around life extension and transhumanist topics, and is widely regarded as one of the founding fathers of the modern transhumanist movement. After his death in 2000, FM-2030’s body was placed in cryonic suspension in Arizona. Mr Boston commented: “I met FM-2030 and that was his legal name when I was about 11 or 12 years old. He’d come to London with his partner at the time and they stayed with us. This was in the early 80s when he had these really off the wall ideas that we were going to live on indefinitely and that there was going to be a much more progressive politics. He talked about we were going to communicate brain to brain. There was going to be a machine that you could put in various characteristics and it was going to print stuff.” Mr Boston went on to produce a number of videos outlining FM-2030’s ideas. He did a series of films called the future of democracy that came out of talks that FM had done. He said,“FM really talks about what the future holds in terms of how we govern ourselves. He thinks we’ve got to useAI.” 1. What will happen in the future according to transhumanists? A. Humans will die in a natural state. B. Humans’life span will remain limited. C. Humans will not need language any longer. D. Humans’abilities will be largely improved by technologies. 2. Why did Fereidoun M. Esfandiary change his name to FM-2030? A. Because his father forced him to do so. B. Because he didn’t like his former name at all. C. Because he wanted to flag his transhumanist faith. D. Because he thought human would end natural death in 2030. 3. What does the underlined phrase “off the wall”in Paragraph 5 mean? A. Dull. B.Ambiguous. C. Ridiculous. D. Upset. 4. Which can be the best title for the passage? A. The Uncertain Future. B. The Film Called 2030. C. The Ideas of Transhumanists.

⑦老师接过汇款单细看，收款人果然写着他的名字。虽然心存疑惑，老师还是决定，把这个好消息告诉全班同学。 ⑧当老师在班级上宣布这一消息时，教室里一下子变得鸦雀无声， 所有的眼睛都齐刷刷投向他。疑惑，羡慕，感叹，什么表情都有。 而第一次被这么关注，他激动得满脸通红，腰板挺得笔直。他从来 就没有坐得这么正过。 ⑨这天，他第一次没有在课堂上捣乱，每一堂课，听得都非常认真。 ⑩放学了，他才收拾书包，跟在同学们的身后，走出学校。这是他 难得一次没有早退，按时放学。 ⑾他惊人地变化着，不再迟到，不再早退，不再恶作剧，不再四处 捣蛋。 ⑿上课时，他安静地坐在自己的位子上，听老师讲课。老师提问时，他第一次举手发言。月考时，他的试卷上，第一次没有出现刺眼的 红色…… ⒀班主任对他做了一次家访。 ⒁他拿出了一沓信。“这都是资助我的叔叔寄来的。”他忽然有点不 好意思，“叔叔在信中说，是老师推荐我的，老师在推荐信里说我是 努力、上进、优秀的孩子。我没想到老师会这么夸我。”他偷偷瞄了 一眼老师，黑黑的脸，泛出红晕。“叔叔还说，他会一直支持我上学，直到我上大学。我不会让老师和叔叔失望的。”他紧紧地咬着嘴唇。 ⒂老师一脸迷茫，这份推荐信显然不是他写的。怎么会这样呢？老 师也想不明白。但是，不管怎样，有一点可以肯定，他彻底改变了。老师坚定地拍拍他的肩膀。 ⒃谜底直到几年后才揭开。他考取了一所重点大学，资助人也赶来 庆贺。班主任老师私下里问资助人，当初为什么会选择他这样一个 问题学生？
新高考高一英语时文阅读精编(含答案解析)
新高考高一英语时文阅读精编（含答案解析） A Coronavirus (冠状病毒) has infected more than 170,000 people across the world, and the virus is expected to peak in the UK in the coming weeks. Professor Chris Whitty said on March 12 that he expects the UK would reach the peak of its coronavirus outbreak in about 10 to 14 weeks. The NHS is currently advising you to self-isolate for seven days if you have symptoms of coronavirus, like a high temperature, or a new continuous cough. If you have travelled to a badly affected area, or have been in contact with someone with the disease, you will also need to self-isolate. Staying at home will help to control the spread of the virus. When you self-isolate, you need to stay away from public places. This means you cannot take your pets out for walks in public places. With more time indoors, it’s also a good idea to plan how you can keep your pet occupied while self-isolating. If you’ve been diagnosed with coronavirus, you should inform your local health protection team that there is a pet in the household. They will touch with the relevant animal health authorities. If your pet shows signs of ill health, please do not take them to the vet. Contact your local health protection team for advice. The RSPCA have also issued tips for keeping your pets and family safe while self-isolating. If you haven’t tested positive or been asked to self-isolate then continue to interact with your pets as normal but adopt good hygiene (卫生) practices including washing hands thoroughly with soap and water before and after touching them, their food, toys and bedding. Avoid being kissed or licked and sharing food with your pet. Ensure you have extra supplies of pet food and medication in case of self-isolation. Speak to your vet or doctor for more advice. 1. Which situation does not require self-isolation during the coronavirus? A. Being bitten by pet animals. B. Arriving in an affected area. C. Contacting with confirmed case. D. Having a fever for a few days. 2. If you are a patient with coronavirus, what might happen to your pet according to Para. 3? A. Being taken to the vet. B. Being given to friends. C. Staying with you.
