题组层级快练30 Unit 5 The power of nature . 阅读理解Back in January, I was watching a college football game and came to a realization: As a high school senior, pretty soon, Ill be the same age as some of the top athletes in the world.This realization was both confusing and comforting. Until this point, Id always thought of top athletes in another generation. I had no real connection to people in the news or playing sports on TV because they were so much older. But pretty soon, people of my age will be the ones dominating(支配) the news.The comfort came in understanding that as I prepare to graduate from Sanford H. Calhoun High School in Merrick, Im not that far off from entering the real world, and I will have a chance to make a name for myself.Right now, Im at the end of one of life stages, with many more to come. As seniors, many in my class developed superiority_complexes. Wed see babyfaced ninthgraders and think, “Ugh, those annoying freshmen.” Or wed hear juniors complain about starting the college application process and say to each other, “Those juniors have no idea what theyre talking about.” Of course, last years seniors said the same thing about last years juniors, repeating a timeless cycle.Psychologist and author Thomas Armstrong writes that life is made up of 12 stages. He stresses that no stage is more important than another, and each has its own unique gifts. There is no highest point in life, no impressive ending when you are above everybody else. At the same time, there is no lowest point in life; at no point is a human worthless and below others. Just as an infant isnt below everyone else, our elders arent above everyone else.1. What can we know about the author?A. Hell finish his high school studies about one year later.B. Reflecting on the past is a part of his daily routine.C. Football is a particular favorite with him.D. He dreams of being an excellent athlete.2. Why did the author find his realization comforting?A. The top athletes are the same age as him.B. There is a possibility that he can be famous.C. He will be admitted to his dream university.D. Hes made full preparations for entering society.3. What does the underlined phrase “superiority complexes” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. A habit of making complaints.B. A habit of following in others footsteps.C. A feeling that you are better than others.D. A feeling that others are unapproachable.4. What message is conveyed in the last paragraph?A. Life is meant to be lived and enjoyed.B. Life is never smooth, full of ups and downs.C. One should try to reach his greatest potential.D. Everyone has their own value and position in life.答案与解析【文章大意】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者在观看足球比赛时意识到自己将和一些优秀的运动员同岁，并由此引发了其对高中生活和人生的感悟。1. 答案A解析考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“As a high school senior”可知，作者作为高中毕业班学生，会在大约一年后完成自己的高中学业。故选A项。2. 答案B解析考查推理判断。根据第三段的内容，尤其是“I will have a chance to make a name for myself”可知，作者觉得自己的感悟中令人欣慰的部分是他很快就会步入真正的世界，也将有机会让自己出名。make a name是“出名；成名”的意思。故选B项。3. 答案C解析考查词义猜测。根据第四段中的“Wed see babyfaced ninthgraders and think . repeating a timeless cycle”可知，该段主要讲的是作为毕业班学生，作者的很多同学会在新生面前自以为是，或者嘲笑那些抱怨大学申请过程(复杂)的低年级学生，即高年级学生会在低年级学生面前产生一种优越感，故画线词的意思应为“优越感”。故选C项。4. 答案D解析考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“at no point is a human worthless and below others. Just as an infant isnt below everyone else, our elders arent above everyone else”可知，在任何时候人都是有价值的，不低于他人，亦不高于他人，即每个人在生活中都有自己的价值和位置。故选D项。. 完形填空阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。Bear is a stray(流浪的) dog and he was found on the streets with several wounds and injuries.
