The camps have excellent horses, professional guides and lots of support workers. They have a reputation for providing a great riding experience.The morning ride, when the guides take you to beautiful, shallow lakes full of water lilies, tends to be more active. It is unlike any other riding experience. With rainbows forming in the splashing water around you and the sound of huge drops of water bouncing off your body and face. It is truly exciting. You are very likely to come across large wild animals, too. On horseback it is possible to get quite close to elephants, giraffes and many other animals. The sense of excitement and tension levels rise suddenly though, as does your heart rate, as you move closer to them.In the evening, rides are usually at a more relaxed and unhurried pace. With golden light streaming across the grassy delta and the animals coming out to eat and drink. Sedate though they are, rides at this time of day are still very impressive. As the suns rays pass through the dust kicked up by the horses, the romance of Africa comes to life.Back at the camp you can kick off your boots and enjoy excellent food and wine. Looking back on your day, you will find it hard to deny that a horseback Safari is as close as you will ever come to answering the call of the wild.21. What does the author find most exciting about a horse safari?A. Seeing and feeling the real African life.B. Enjoying good food and wine at the camp.C. Hunting large animals just as our ancestors did.D. Being part of the scene and getting close to animals.22. What does the underlined word sedate probably mean?A. Wild and romantic. B. Slow and peaceful.C. Hurry and thirsty. D. Active and excited.23. The author introduced the riding experience in the Okavango Delta mainly by _.A. following space order B. following time orderC. making classifications D. giving examples【答案】21. D 22. B 23. B【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了在非洲进行的观赏野生动物的野营项目。【21题详解】细节理解题。由第三段的四、五、六句“On horseback it is possible to get quite close to elephants, giraffes and many other animals. The sense of excitement and tension levels rise suddenly though, as does your heart rate, as you move closer to them.”可知，作者认为坐在马背上近距离接触那些野生动物是最让人激动。故选D。【22题详解】词义猜测题。由上文 In the evening, rides are usually at a more relaxed and unhurried pace. 可知， 傍晚的乘车的旅程通常是更放松的，缓慢的。因此推断画线句句意是：尽管乘车是缓慢的，平静的，但是在一天的这个时候乘车仍旧是令人印象深刻的。故sedate的意思是Slow and peaceful，选B。【23题详解】篇章结构题。由第三段的“The morning ride”和第四段的“In the evening”可推断，作者在第三段中先说了早上的旅程，第四段阐述了晚上的旅程，尾段的“Back at the camp you can kick off your boots and enjoy excellent food and wine.”又谈到回到营地，由此可知作者是按时间顺序写的。故选B。【点睛】篇章结构题考查考生对整个文章结构的组织能力，对后文内容的预测能力，对文章写作手法、修辞手段的鉴赏能力。解题策略包括：（1）了解文章结构的组织形式。常见的文章结构有三种：总分式结构（总分；总分总；分总）、并列式结构（段落之间是平行关系，并且相对独立）、对照式结构（结构形式上是一正一反）。（2）了解文章的论证方法。常见的议论文结构有以下两类：Put forward a question Analyze the question Solve the question 即“提出问题、分析问题、解决问题”的过程；Argument/idea Evidence conclusion/ restating the idea 即“由论点到论据到结论或者强调论点”的过程。（3）了解文章的修辞手法。从修辞手法上讲，在高考阅读中主要考查下定义、分类说明、列举例证和对比等写作手法。例如小题1：此题属于篇章结构题中对文章写作手法的考查。由第三段的“The morning ride”和第四段的“In the evening”可推断，作者在第三段中先说了早上的旅程，第四段阐述了晚上的旅程，尾段的“Back at the camp you can kick off your boots and enjoy excellent food and wine.”又谈到回到营地，由此可知作者是按时间顺序写的。BDodder is an unusual and unwanted plant that attacks other plants. Except for its flowers, the plant looks like spaghetti, a kind of noodles in the shape of long thin pieces that look like string when they are cooked. Its almost leafless, thread-like stems（茎）hang down on top of other plants that dodder needs to stay alive. Dodder does not produce its own food. Instead, it steals food from other plants. It feeds by sucking juices from the plant which is wrapped around, often making its host very weak or even killing it.Dodder can find other plants by their smell. When a young dodder plant starts growing, it follows the smell of plants it prefers, like tomato plants, potato plants, or other farm crops. Unlike most plants that usually grow in the direction of light or warmth, a dodder plant will grow in the direction of, for example, tomato smell-if a tomato happens to be growing nearby.However, a young dodder plant must find a host plant quickly. It no longer needs its root once it is attached to the host and wrapped around it. If it cannot catch a smell of a potential host within a few days, it will dry up and disappear-even if there is plenty of water around. Once it finds a host, the young dodder plant will attach itself to it and start growing faster. At that point the dodder plant will drop its root.Dodder is thus a difficult weed to manage and a real headache for farmers. When it does get out of hand, dodder can greatly reduce a farmers harvest or even destroy crops completely. Before sowing their produce, especially farmers in warm parts of the world often check to make sure no unwanted dodder seeds have mixed with their crop seeds. This is a good way to stop dodder plants from making their way to a crop field secretly.24. Why does the author mention spaghetti in the first paragraph?A. To analyze the content of some food.B. To describe tie shape of dodder plants.C. To explain where the dodder plants come from.D. To argue that dodder plants can be used.25. What will happen if a dodder plant starts growing where there are no other plants around?A. It will die sooner or later.B. It will grow deep roots.C. It will attract other plants.D. It will cover the entire area of soil.26. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Dodder does not produce its own food.B. Dodder can affect farmers income.C. Dodder can only survive in the shade.D. Dodder only grows in the warm areas.27. What is the main topic of the passage?A. A new variety of farm crops.B. Plants that are harmful to humans.C. The special abilities of a dangerous plant.D. Recent improvements in farming methods.【答案】24. B 25. A 26. B 27. C【解析】文章介绍了一种有特殊生长习性，危害农作物生长的攀附植物菟丝子。【24题详解】B推理判断题。根据第一段the plant looks like spaghetti, a kind of noodles in the shape of long thin pieces that look like string when they are cooked.作者把dodder和意大利面条相比是用人们熟悉的事物来说明dodder的形状，故选B.【25题详解】A细节推理题。根据第三段If it cannot catch a smell of a potential host within a few days, it will dry up and disappear-even if there is plenty of water around.可知dodder如果找不到可以攀附的植物，它就会变干死亡。故选A.【26题详解】B推理判断题。根据最后一段When it does get out of hand, dodder can greatly reduce a farmers harvest or even destroy crops completely.可知当它失控时，菟丝子可以大大减少农民的收成，甚至完全毁坏庄稼。由此可见dodder会影响农民们的收入。C、D两项说法错误，A项正确，但文中有原句，不是推断出来的。故选B.【27题详解】C主旨大意题。根据首句Dodder is an unusual and unwanted plant that attacks other plants.和下文对dodder特殊生长习性和危害的叙述，可知本文主要在介绍这种特殊的又有危害的植物，C项是本文的主题，故选C.【名师点睛】推理判断题属于主观题，是层次较高的题目。它包括判断和推理题。这两类题常常相互依存，推理是为了做出正确的判断，正确的判断又依赖于合乎逻辑的推理。此类题要求在理解表面文字的基础上，做出判断和推论，从而得到文章的隐含的意思和深层的意思，也就是通过文章中的文字信息，上下逻辑关系及事物的发展变化等已知的信息，推断出作者没有直接表达的态度和观点。本文推理判断题的考法：1)推测文章的观点或结论。小题3考查从文中得出的观点，根据最后一段When it does get out of hand, dodder can greatly reduce a farmers harvest or even destroy crops completely.可知当它失控时，菟丝子可以大大减少农民的收成，甚至完全毁坏庄稼。由此可见dodder会影响农民们的收入。C、D两项说法错误，A项正确，但文中有原句，不是推断出来的。2)推测作者写作目的或意图。小题1考查作者比喻的意图，根据第一段the plant looks like spaghetti, a kind of noodles in the shape of long thin pieces that look like string when they are cooked.作者把dodder和意大利面条相比是用人们熟悉的事物来说明dodder的形状。CTeaching someone to drive can be very nerve-racking. The experience of offering instruction from the passenger seat while a new driver is driving is not good for your peace of mind, especially when the students first language is not English.My good friend Prakash is from southern India. He grew up speaking Telugu, a language that, until I met him, was unknown to me. Prakash is self-conscious about his English, even though I think he speaks it quite well, with a pleasing Indian accent.Under the pressure of driving instruction, however, his response sometimes abandons him-especially when it comes to the difference between right and left.During our first drive, with Prakash holding the wheel for dear life and staring dead ahead, I told him to turn left onto a side road, when Prakash asked Left?I replied, Thats right.And so, without looking, he turned right. Left! Left! I commanded, which alarmed him. He straightened the car, and politely reminded me that I had said right, which, of course, I had. I apologized for the outburst and explained the context of what I had said. But a few minutes later, when I told him to turn right, he turned left.We pulled over. Prakash,I said gently, do you understand the difference between right and left in English? He smiled pleasantly and assured me that he did. I realized that he probably did, but simply had trouble responding to my instructions under pressure. And then a solution occurred to me.Prakash, I asked, how do you say right and left in Telugu? The answers sounded like kudee and yedama.We set out again into the flow of traffic. Our turn approached. I recalled my newly acquired Telugu. Kudee! Kudee!I shouted. It worked. We turned right.We went on like this for a while. And I learned
