题型组合练(二十八) 阅读理解＋书面表达

Ⅰ.阅读理解

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

A

(2019·唐山高三质量检测)The alarm sounds.Students swing their backpack over their shoulder，board the school bus，make their way to their homeroom and the bell rings—school is back.But for more homes in America，school looks more like students waking up，making their way to the dining room or home office，setting up laptops and learning in the comfort of home.

Virtual(虚拟的) schooling，described as “a public school that offers only instruction in which students and teachers are separated by time and/or place，and interaction occurs via computers and/or telecommunications (电信) technologies”，has increased over the past decade.According to the National Education Policy Center，enrollments (注册人数) in virtual schools increased by 17，000 between the 2015—2016 school year and the 2016—2017 school year to 295，518.

For Arizona Virtual Academy，a full-time online public K-12 school，they use K12 Inc.curriculums.K12 Inc.serves students in all 50 states and more than 100 countries with digital learning platforms and technology，providing online education.“We always are improving our platforms and the technology that we use to make sure that we're keeping up with the changing trends，not only with education but also

with technology，”Dr.Kelly Van Sande said.Another piece of new technology they've rolled out is a new app where parents can find virtual schools available in their area.

Carrie Faulkner chose to enroll two of her children in Arizona Virtual Academy.She says they've done schooling online in Chicago，in California，at restaurants and on her cousin's floor in Kansas.“It doesn't matter whether he (her son) is on the couch，in his bed or at the kitchen table，he can do schooling wherever he wants to，” Faulkner said.“I wish they had it for me back when I was in school.That would have been awesome.”

1．What's the purpose of the first paragraph? A．To give an example of virtual schooling. B．To introduce the topic “virtual schooling”. C．To describe vividly students' going to school. D．To compare real schooling with virtual schooling.

2．How many students attended virtual schools during the 2015—2016 school year?

A．17，000. C．278，518.

B．147，759. D．295，518.

3．What can we infer about Arizona Virtual Academy? A．They provide both online and offline education. B．They're intended for students in the United States. C．Their new app lets people find schools nationwide. D．Their platforms and technology are very advanced. 4．What is Carrie Faulkner's attitude to virtual schooling? A．Favorable.

B．Doubtful.

C．Indifferent. D．Disapproving.

体裁：说明文 题材：教育科技 主题：虚拟教育

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文，介绍了近年来越来越受欢迎的虚拟教育。

1．解析：写作意图题。第一段对传统的学生上学的情景和日益受欢迎的虚拟学校的学生上学的情景进行对比，第二段至文末都在讲虚拟教育，故首段的作用是引出本文的话题——虚拟教育。故选B。

答案：B

2．解析：数字计算题。根据题干中的信息定位答案在第二段末句，由该句可知，虚拟学校的注册学生人数在2015—2016学年和2016—2017学年间增加了17 000，2016—2017学年注册人数增加到295 518，故答案为295 518－17 000＝278 518。

答案：C

3．解析：推理判断题。根据题干中的Arizona Virtual Academy定位答案在第三段。根据本段中Dr.Kelly Van Sande的话可知，该虚拟学校一直在改进他们的平台和技术，以确保能够跟上不断变化的趋势，不仅仅是跟上教育的变化趋势，还要跟上技术的变化趋势。由此可推断，该校的平台和技术很先进。故选D。

答案：D

4．解析：观点态度题。根据题干中的Carrie Faulkner定位答案在最后一段。Carrie Faulkner选择让她的两个孩子上虚拟学校，并且根据她说的“我真希望在我上学的时候也有虚拟教育，那就太棒了”也可推断，Carrie Faulkner对于虚拟教育持肯定、支持的态度。

答案：A

B

(2019·合肥高三质量检测)We can have video chat with astronauts

aboard the International Space Station and watch live footage from the frozen heights of a mountain.But communicating with a submarine (潜艇) or a diver is not so easy.The lack of practical methods for sharing data between underwater airborne (空气传播的) devices has long been a frustration for scientists.The difficulty stems from the fact that radio signals work perfectly in air travel but poorly in water.Sonar signals used by underwater sensors reflect off the surface of water rather than reaching the air.

Now，researchers at MIT have developed a method with the potential to revolutionize underwater communication.“What we've shown is that it's actually feasible to communicate from underwater to the air，” says Fadel Adib，a professor at MIT's Media Lab，who led the research.

The MIT researchers designed a system that uses an underwater machine to send sonar signals to the surface，making vibrations(震动) corresponding to the 1s and 0s of the data.A surface receiver then reads and decodes these tiny vibrations.The researchers call the system TARF.It has any number of potential real-world uses，Adib says.It could be used to find downed planes underwater by reading signals from sonar devices in a plane's black box and it could allow submarines to communicate with the surface.

Right now the technology is low-resolution.The initial study was conducted in the MIT swimming pool at maximum depths of around 11 or 12 feet.The next steps for the researchers are to see if TARF is workable at much greater depths and under varying conditions —high waves，storms，schools of fish.They also want to see if they can make the technology work in the other direction—air to water.If the

technology proves successful in real-world conditions，expect “texting while diving” to be the latest underwater fashion.

5．What does the author mainly talk about in Paragraph 1 ? A．The future of video chat underwater and in air. B．The frustrations of developing underwater devices. C．The difficulty of communication from water to air. D．The current situation of communicating with a submarine. 6．What does the underlined word “feasible” mean? A．Achievable. C．Changeable.

B．Convenient. D．Alternative.

7．What do we know about TARF? A．It is widely used to find downed planes. B．It can work well at great depths underwater. C．It is an underwater machine that sends signals. D．It can send，receive and read signals from underwater. 8．What is the best title for the text? A．The Real-world Uses of Sonar Technology B．Full Water-to-air Communication Closer to Reality C．A Breakthrough in the Application of Video Chat D．TARF Becoming a New Means of Communication

体裁：说明文 题材：科技 主题：从水下与地面上的人进行通信的技术

【语篇解读】 本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一项麻省理工学院的科学家发明的从水下与地面上的人进行通信的技术。

5．解析：段落大意题。通读第一段的内容可知，该段主要讲的是从水下与地面的人进行通信非常困难，因此C项正确。
