word-1-/8 2015 福州市高考英语四月阅读、短文语法填空自练12答案 阅读理解。阅读如下短文,从给的四个选项(A、B、C 和 D)中,选出最优选项。The Western has been the favorite type for American adventure story since the nineteenth century.While the American West was being settled,newspapers and dime novels could depend on stories of the frontier settlements and tell tales about living in the untamed wilderness to sell.The public back East was eager to read about the West,even if the stories were more fiction than fact.In 1902,Owen Wister published his novel The Virginian,which was one of the first novels to treat the Western as a serious literary form;the novel still sold well and had inspired several movies and a television series.In 1905,Bertha H.Bower and Zane Grey published their first novels,and the popular Western novels had continued to flourish from that day on,with current novels by Luke Short,Max Brand,and Louis L Amour carrying on the tradition.The first Western movie appeared even earlier than these serious Western novels.Before the turn of the century,an associate of Edisons had filmed Cripple Creek Barroom Scene,a few seconds of film showing the inside of a saloon,to help publicize the invention of the movie camera.In 1903 the Edison company filmed the first full-length Western The Great Train Robbery.The film lasts less than fifteen minutes,but a story is told its entirety.In the movie,bandits(强盗)rob a train and its passengers,killing the engineer,and find themselves tracked down by a posse.Audiences loved the movie.Some theaters were actually opened for the single purpose of showing The Great Train Robbery and only later realized that they could do equally well showing other movies.The film was so successful that other companies,and finally even the Edison company itself,began producing copies and other versions of The Great Train Robbery.Ironically,in an era when the West was still very real-Arizona,New Mexico and Oklahoma were all territories rather than states in 1903 The Great Train Robbery was filmed in New Jersey.1.The purpose of this passage is to_.A.discuss the making of the movie The Great Train Robbery B.discuss the early Western novels word-2-/8 C.discuss the art of movie making D.trace the development of the Western as an American adventure story tradition 2.We can conclude from this passage that_.A.people lost interest in the West after 1903 B.Owen Wister was an ex-cowboy C.New Jersey was still untamed wilderness in 1903 D.films were fairly uncommon at the time The Great Train Robbery was made 3.The passage suggests that_.A.Edisons invention of the movie camera happened;by accident B.movie houses didnt make much-money in the early days C.Easterners were fascinated by the wild West D.The Great Train Robbery was poorly received by the public because it lacked a plot 4.As used in this passage,the word“literary means_.A.humorous B.financial C.appropriate to literature D.amateur 【答案解析】1.D 推断题。从 1902 年出版的小说，1903 年拍的一部电影，到 1905 年的第一批小说等，作者如此不吝惜笔墨，是为了追溯具有冒险故事传统的美国西部开展史。故 D 项是正确答案。2.D 推断题。第三段，通过 The Great Train Robbery 影片的成功放映，人们才开始认识到在影剧院也可以同样放映一些其它影片,于是其它制片公司甚至于 the Edison 公司本身便开始生产其副本与 The Great Train Robbery 的其它译本。通过以上信息，我们得出的结论应是 D 项所表达的内容，那一时期的电影并非相当普与。3.C 推断题。第一段最后一句的 was eager to read about the West(渴望看一些有关西部的书)，与题中 were fascinated by the wild West(对荒芜的西部着了迷)表达了同样的信息，故 C 项为正确答案。4.C 词义题。根据上下文关系以与关键词语 novels 和 form 可推知 literary 的词义。因为“小说word-3-/8 与“形式应属于“文学范围。阅读如下短文，从每题所给的四个选项A、B、C 和 D中，选出最优选项。For eighty four days old Santiago had not caught a single fish.At first a young boy,Manolin,had shared his bad fortune,but after the fortieth luckless day the boys father told his son to go in another boat.From that time on,Santiago worked alone.The boy loved the old fisherman and always helped him with money and food.Usually,they would talk about the fish they had taken in luckier times or about American baseball after supper,while at night,alone in his cottage,Santiago dreamed of lions on the beaches of Africa,where he had gone years before.He no longer dreamed of his dead wife.On the eighty-fifth day,Santiago set off to fish before dawn.Two of his baits(饵)were fresh tunas(金枪鱼)the boy had given him,as well as sardines(沙丁鱼)to cover his hooks.Then he set his lines which went straight down into deep dark water.As the sun rose he saw other boats in toward shore.A bird showed him where dolphin were chasing some flying fish.This time Santiago saw tuna jumping in the sunlight.A small one took the hook on his line.Pulling the fish aboard,the old man thought it a good fortune.Toward noon a marlin,a common fish in the sea,started eating the bait which was one hundred meters down.Gently the old man played the fish,a big one,as he knew from the weight on the line.At last he struck to settle the hook.The fish did not come out of the surface.Instead,it began to pull the boat to the northwest.The old man followed it.Although he was alone and no longer strong,he had his skill and knew many tricks.He waited patiently for the fish to be tired.It was cold after the sunset.When something took one of his remaining baits,he cut the line with his knife.Once the marlin leaned suddenly,pulling Santiago forward on his face and cutting his cheek.By dawn his left hand was cramped(抽筋的).The fish had headed northward;there was no land in sight.Hungry,he cut pieces from the tuna and chewed them slowly.That morning the fish jumped.Seeing it,Santiago knew he had hooked the biggest marlin he had word-4-/8 ever seen.Then the fish went down and turned toward the east.Santiago drank a little water from the bottle during the hot afternoon.Close to nightfall a dolphin took the small hook he had rebaited.He lifted it aboard,careful.After he had rested,he cut meat from the dolphin and kept also the two flying fish he found in its stomach.That night he slept.He awoke to feel the line running through his fingers as the fish jumped.Feeding line slowly,he tried to tire the marlin.After the fish slowed its run,he washed his cut hands in sea water and ate one of the flying fish.At sunrise the marlin began to circle.Faint,he worked to bring the big fish nearer with each turn.Almost exhausted,he finally drew his big fish alongside and drove in the harpoon(鱼叉).The fish was two feet longer than the boat.No fish like it had ever been seen in Havana harbor.An hour later,he sighted the first shark,a fierce Mako,and it came in fast to chase after the dead marlin.The old man struck the shark with his harpoon.The Mako rolled and sank,carrying the harpoon with it and leaving the marlin bloody.He knew the smell would spread.Watching,he saw two sharks closing in.He struck at one with his knife and watched it sliding down into deep water.The other he killed while it tore at the flesh of the marlin.When the third appeared,he thrust(刺)it with the knife.The other sharks came at sunset.At first he tried to beat them with the tiller(舵柄)from the boat,but his hands were bleeding and there were too many in the sea.In the darkness,as he steered toward the harbor of Havana,he heard them hitting the boat again and again.But the old man thought only of his steering and his great tiredness.He had gone out too far and the sharks had beaten him.He knew they would leave him nothing but the stripped skeleton of the big marlin.All lights were out when he sailed into the little harbor and beached his boat.He could just make out the white backbone and the upstanding tail of the fish.Once he fell under their weight and lay patiently until he could gather his strength to go on.In his cottage he fell on his bed and went to sleep.55.The above story is adapted from _.A.Treasure Island B.The Adventures Of Tom Sawyer C.The Old Man And The Sea D.The Son Of The Sea word-5-/8 56.Why did the man feel that he could be lucky this time?A.Because a small tuna took the hook on his line.B.Because he dreamed about the American lions.C.Because he saw many flying fish

stories with Santiago.C.The boy showed his great concerns to Santiago.D.The boy was Santiagos adopted son.58.Why does Santiago let the marlin lead his boat instead of pulling the big fish up?A.He wanted to kill the marlin first before he pulled it up to the boat.B.He was too tired and hungry to pull the big fish up.C.His experience told him not to do so before the fish was tired out.D.He wanted to use the marlin as a bait to catch the sharks.59.Which sentence below can be used to best describe Santiagos character?A.“He no longer dreamed of his dead wife.(Para 1)B.“Although he was
