Grammar and Vocabulary

Section A

Directions: After reading the passage below,fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct.For the blanks with a given word,fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word;for the other blanks,use one word that best fits each blank.

In short,those elf stories in Iceland might have represented a vague yet desperate attempt at control: if you did the right thing and helped out a hidden person,then at least through your response you had a tiny bit of power over your own destiny.

In a category of their own_21_(be) the tales of elves who abducted mortal children or lured away adolescents. Those may have reflected an event more grim reality: children and teenagers who routinely died or went_22_(miss). Partly this happened_23_the adults had to work constantly and could not always be on call to supervise.During the summers they often had to work some distance from the farm,and when they did they would leave their children unattended for_24_(long) periods.Any number of things could happen to those children.They might wander off somewhere,possibly falling into a river,_25_a cliff,or into a deep crevice in the landscape.Or maybe the children _26_were out working,with all the associated perils.As clearly as the age of five they were put into work watching the sheep,sometimes in a distant field.Imagine_27_a fog crept in and they tried to find their way home,only_28_ (become) hopeless lost.They could even have an accident,far from any available help.And so the_29_(bereave) parents,tormented by guilt,might conjure up a story in which their children had not,in fact,died,but had been taken away by elves who could provide a good life for them-even better than the one they_30_(provide).

To the Icelanders,stories of elves and hidden people are an integral part of the cultural and psychological fabric of our nation.They are a part of our identity,a

reflection of the struggles,hopes,resilience and endurance of our people. As such,they are very dear to us.

Section B

Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box.Each word can be use only once.Note that there is one word more than you need.

Innovation,the elixir of progress,has always cost people their jobs.In the industrial revolution hand weavers were_31_aside by the mechanical loom.Over the past 30 years the digital revolution has_32_many of the mid-skill jobs that supported 20th-century middle-class life.Typists,ticket agents,bank tellers and many production-line jobs have been dispensed with,just as the weavers were.

For those who believe that technological progress has made the world a better place,such disruption is a natural part of rising_33_.Although innovation kills some jobs,it creates new and better ones,as a more_34_society becomes richer and its wealthier inhabitants demand more goods and services.A hundred years ago one in three American workers was_35_on a farm.Today less than 2% of them produce far more food.The millions freed from the land were not rendered_36_,but found better- paid work as the economy grew more sophisticated.Today the pool of secretaries has_37_,but there are ever more computer programmers and web designers.

Optimism remains the right starting-point,but for workers the dislocating effects of technology may make themselves evident faster than its_38_.Even if new jobs and wonderful products emerge,in the short term income gaps will widen,causing huge social dislocation and perhaps even changing politics.Technology's_39_will feel like a tornado（旋风）,hitting the rich world first,but_40_sweeping through poorer countries too.No government is prepared for it.

The movement was so sudden(23)________several passengers felt sick and had to use airsickness bags.(24)________you might guess,that’s not good thing to happen in a narrow space because it only serves to increase the discomfort of the situation.

People tend to pay attention to the shoes they and others wear.” Medical Daily notes that the number of detailed personality traits (特质) detected in the study include a person's general age, income, political tendency, and other personality traits, including someone's emotional stability. Lead researcher Omri Gillath said the judgments were based on the style, cost, color and condition of someone's shoes. In the study, 63 students from the University of Kansas looked at pictures showing 208 different pairs of shoes worn by the study's participants. Participants in the study were photographed in their most commonly worn shoes, and then filled out a personality questionnaire. So, what do your shoes say about your personality? Some of the results were expected: people with higher incomes most commonly wore expensive shoes, and flashier footwear was typically worn by outgoing people. However, some of the more specific results are interesting. For example, “practical and functional” shoes were generally worn by more

2019届上海市各高中名校高三英语题型分类专题汇编--阅读理解B篇--老师版(带答案已校对珍藏版)

III. Reading Comprehension Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. B Kettlebells do not hurt people. People do. A kettlebell will get your respect – the easy way or the hard way. Here is the easy way. 1. Get a medical clearance. Get clearance, especially from an orthopedist and a cardiologist. The latter is no joking matter, since kettlebell training can be extremely intense. 2. Always be aware of your surroundings. Find a training area with a non-slippery surface on which you are not afraid to drop a kettlebell. The area must be clear of objects you might trip over – including other kettlebells – or that you might hit with a kettlebell. There should be no people or animals in a radius where you could injure them. 3. Train barefoot or wear shoes with a flat, thin sole and room for the toes to spread. Training barefoot is superior for health and performance reasons. If you must wear shoes, wear Converse Chuck Taylors, Vibram Five Fingers, or similar shoes that have thin soles and do not pinch the toes together. You have sensory receptors on the bottoms of your feet that make you stronger and improve balance and coordination. Wearing traditional shoes diminishes the ability of these receptors to work properly, and therefore inhibits performance and can increase the risk of injury. Go native. 4. Never contest for space with a kettlebell. Do not try to save a rep that has gone wrong. Guide the kettlebell to fall harmlessly, and move out of the way if necessary. And remember, quick feet are happy feet. 5. Practice all safety measures at all times. Respect every kettlebell, even the lightest one. Always use perfect form picking up and setting down a kettlebell. The set is not over until the bell is safely parked.

Hold that stretch for 30 seconds!" My dance teacher works hard to form us into the dancers we desire to be. In order for this to occur, we stretch hard a lot! Dancing is a real passion of many people, including me. I work hard to make myself better, and prove that I am good enough. Performing a dance routine is more than just a performance. Dancers tell stories when they dance. It is a way for us to express our personal feelings. Just letting go and letting your body move with the music can create your emotions. Dance tells us things that our mind secretly hides. “Get up and do it again! You need to keep your spirits up!” Even though I am completely
