Some are looking for a deal on that one item for their loved one, or perhaps themselves. Their intentions are completely unrelated to the festive time of the year.It was several years ago when my wife asked me to meet her at the local department store on Black Friday morning. They had advertised a childs bike that she wanted to purchase for our son. We stood with a very large crowd, waiting for the manager to blow the whistle. After a while the whistle blew. It was like throwing a bucket of small fish into a tank of sharks. I told my wife that if we obtained a bike, fine, but if we did not, I was OK with that too.As the pile of bikes began to gradually decrease in size, I saw my “polite” opportunity to wrap my hands around the corner of one of the boxes. I lifted it up and suddenly felt some mild resistance. I looked up to see one of the largest gentlemen I had ever seen in my life. Frightening was not the word to describe his presence. He wore lots of belts of metal studded leather around both arms and even his neck. Tattoos(文身) were an obvious passion of his.I started to give up the box but he gently pushed it into my direction and back into my hands. He then directed it into my shopping cart. He looked at me, smiled, and said, “Merry Christmas.” My wife and I went to the checkout, paid for the bike and went home. All the way home I was thinking that this moment was by far the best gift I had ever received for Christmas. The kindness of a stranger broke all preconceived notions(预想) I may have had of stereotypes and prejudices.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者和妻子想在黑色星期五大抢购时给儿子买辆自行车,无奈百货商店里人山人海。作者本想放弃,没想到一个陌生人把自行车盒子让给了他。这让作者改变了之前对他人的偏见。4How did the author feel when going into the store?AThe crowd was like small fish.BThey might not get the bike.CHe was excited to do the shopping.DThe whistle was blown too late.B解析:推理判断题。根据第二段中的最后一句可知,作者进入商店时已经做好了买不到自行车的打算,故选B项。5What happened when the author was buying the bike?AHe was scared by a mans look at first.BA gentleman bought the bike for him.CA stranger helped him lift the box.DHe gave up the bike he first touched.A解析:细节理解题。根据第三段中的“I looked up to see.Frightening was not the word to describe his presence.”可知,“吓人”这个词已经不足以形容这个人的出现了。故选A项。6What did the author learn from the experience?ALook before you leap.BCustom is a second nature.CDoing is better than saying.DDont judge a book by its cover.D解析:推理判断题。根据第三段中对陌生人的描写可知,作者一开始因陌生人的外表而觉得他是个可怕的人;根据第四段的内容可知,陌生人把盒子让给了作者,作者由此发出感慨“The kindness of a stranger broke all preconceived notions(预想) I may have had of stereotypes and prejudices.”,即陌生人的善意打破了作者对他人的偏见,让作者知道不能以貌取人。故选D项。7What is the best title of the passage?ABlack Friday SalesBMy Sons Best BikeCThe Best Christmas GiftDA Strange GentlemanC解析:标题归纳题。文章讲述了作者和妻子为儿子买自行车作为圣诞礼物时受到了陌生人的帮助的故事,作者认为那一时刻是他收到过的最好的圣诞节礼物。故C项作标题最佳。C(2019昆明高三复习适应性检测)Spider monkeys have long,thin arms with hooklike hands that allow them to swing through the trees. They do not have opposable thumbs(对生拇指)The brownheaded spider monkey has a prehensile(缠绕性的) tail,which means it can grasp and can be used like a fifth leg to grab trees. During the day,the spider monkey searches for fruits,which make up the main part of its diet. They will also eat flowers,seeds,leaves,and small insects during the dry season when fruits arent available. They spend most of the daylight hours climbing and swinging through the high branches of trees.The brownheaded spider monkey lives in a large community of about 20 to 100 male and female monkeys. They split into smaller groups for feeding. Females usually give birth to only a single baby each year or two. Young monkeys are carried on their mothers stomachs until about 16 weeks old. Then they are strong enough to ride on their mothers backs. All brownheaded spider monkey babies are born with pink faces and ears.Spider monkeys hug each other and wrap their tails around each other. They are very intelligent and have strong memories. They were named spider monkeys because they look like spiders as they hang upside down from their tails with their arms and legs swinging. Their genus(属) name is Ateles,which means “imperfect”. This refers to the fact that they dont have thumbs.Hunting the brownheaded spider monkey is now barred in Ecuador,a country in northwestern South America,but humans have killed them for their meat for hundreds of years.【解题导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了蜘蛛猴的特征和生活习性。8Spider monkeys live mostly on _Ainsects BfruitsCflowers DleavesB解析:细节理解题。根据第二段的“During the day,the spider monkey searches for fruits,which make up the main part of its diet.”可知,在白天,蜘蛛猴寻找水果,这是它们饮食的主要成分。据此可知,它们以水果为主食。live on意思是“以为主食”。9What can we learn about spider monkeys?AThey have five legs.BThey live in small groups.CTheir tails can take their weight.DTheir genus is the same as spidersC解析:推理判断题。根据第四段中的“They were named . their arms and legs swinging.”可知,它们可以靠尾巴倒挂在树上,让四肢(在空中)摇摆着。由此推断,蜘蛛猴的尾巴可以承担体重。所以选C。10What does the underlined word “barred” in the last paragraph refer to?APermitted.
