黄冈市2023年高三年级9月调研考试

英语试题答案

英语答案解析

阅读理解

A篇主题：应用文一人与自然

原文出处：

/travel/article/best-places-wild-sleeping-camping-england-wales

21.A细节理解。根据uChallacombeMeadows,Devonn这一段中“Bestforprivacy”可知正

确答案是Ao

22.C细节理解。根据关键词“BushFarm,COrnWalI”定位到第二段，可知在此处是野外游

泳，并且可以乡间漫步，夜间还可以观星。去酒吧只能是在"ChallacombeMeadows,Devon”

实现。故选C。

23.D细节理解。看标题可知，本文是介绍最适合野外露营地地方，所以D正确。A选项错

误，只有最后一个地方才是免费。B选项不对，只有“TheWildmanWoods,Carmarthen・

shire,,最适合划船戏水。C不对，因为只有aPenrhosIsafBothy,Gwynedn这里曾经充当过山

间避难处。

B篇主题：记叙文一人与社会

原文出处：https:〃WWW./heros-of~technology-ada-lovelace/

24.B推理判断。从第一段中“SheneverknewLordByron,asjustweeksafterherbirthin1815,

hedivorcedhermotherIsabellaMilbankeByronandlefttofightintheGreekWarofIndepend-

ence.”可知，Ada从未见过自己的父亲，她是由母亲独自抚养长大的。

25.D细节理解。从第二段中uHerlifechangedwhenshemetinventorCharlesBabbageata

party.Ashedemonstratedaworkingsectionofhismechanicalcalculator,Adawastakeninbyhow

itworkedandwantedtoknowmore.Impressedbythe17-year-old,sobviouspassion,Babbagebe­

camehertutor.”可知是CharlesBabbage改变了她的生活，激起了她对数学和计算机工程的兴

趣。

26.B推理判断。从第二段"Adastudiedharddespitethefactthatsocietydidnotencourage

womenpursuinginterestsinsciencev可知，Ada在学习上很刻苦，和第四段中^Adawrote

whatareconsideredthefirstevercomputeralgorithmstobeusedinanewtypeofmachine.Shees­

sentiallyprovidedthefirstideasforcomputerprogramminginwhatwasagroundbreakingproposal

onthepotentialofcomputers.v可知，她在选记中提出了计算机编程的第一个想法，是一个关

于计算机潜力的开创性建议，说明她极有天赋。

27.C推理判断。从最后一段看，A选项错误，1950年她的笔记被再次出版。B选项不对，以

她的名字命名一门编程语言的是美国国防部。"herworkwaslargelyrecogniseduntilthe1950s

whenhernoteswererepublished,,可知，她出生于1815年，1950年她的笔记被重新出版，也

就是她死后快一个世纪的时候，她的贡献才广为人知，故D错误，选C。

C篇主题：说明文一人与社会

文章出处：

节选自DeSigr1：AVeryShortIntroduction《设计：无处不在/牛津通识读本》，作者JOhn

Hesketto

本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了对设计的正确解读和如何追求更好的设计。

28.A主旨大意。根据文章第二段“Notsurprisingly,intheabsenceofwidespreadagreement

aboutitssignificanceandvalue,muchconfusionsurroundsdesignPraCtiCe.（毫不奇'怪，在其意义

和价值的广泛一致认同缺失的情况下，许多混乱围绕着设计实践。）”可知，不同领域对设计

的不同理解导致的混乱。故选A。

29.C词义猜测。根据划线词下文“onlyasmallproportionofwhichhassustainedquality（只有一

小部分具有持久的质量）”可推知，划线词"ephemeral”的意思是“短暂存在的“，作为一种实

践，设计产生了大量的材料，其中大部分是短暂的。故选C。

30.D推理判断。通过文章第四段“Designisoneofthebasiccharacteristicsofwhatitistobehu­

man,andanessentialdeterminantofthequalityofhumanlife.Ifthingsareanecessarypartofour

existence,whyaretheyoftendonesobadly?Thereisnosimpleanswer.Costfactorsaresometimes

advanced,butthemarginbetweendoingsomethingwellorbadlycanbeexceedinglysmall,andcost

factorscaninfactbereducedbyappropriatedesigninputs.（设计是人类生活质量的基本特征之

一，也是人类生活质量的基本决定因素。如果事物是我们存在的必要组成部分，为什么它们

经常做得如此糟糕？没有一个简单的答案。成本因素有时是先进的，但把事情做得好或做得

不好之间的差距可能非常小，而成本因素实际上可以通过适当的设计投入来降低。）”可推

知，很多方面都可以通过适当的设计而有所改善。故选D。

31.B细节理解。通过文章最后一段“Theintentionistoextendthespectrumofwhatisunder­

stoodbytheterm,andexaminethebreadthofdesignpracticeasitaffectseverydaylifeinadiver-

SityOfCUItUres∙（其意图是扩大“设计”一词所理解的范围，审查设计实践的广度，因为它影响
