2016高考模擬題(由2014·山東卷C改編)
Elizabeth Freeman was born about 1742 to African American parents who were slaves. At the age of six months she was acquired, along with her sister, by John Ashley, a wealthy Massachusetts slaveholders. She became known as “Mumbet” or “Mum Bett.”
For nearly 30 years Mumbet served the Ashley family. One day, Ashley’s wife tried to strike Mumbet’s sister with a spade. Mumbet protected her sister and took the blow instead. Furious, she left the house and refused to come back. When the Ashleys tried to make her return, Mumbet consulted a lawyer, Theodore Sedgewick. With his help, Mumbet sued(起訴) for her freedom.
While serving the Ashleys, Mumbet had listened to many discussions of the new Massachusetts constitution. If the constitution said that all people were free and equal, then she thought it should apply to her. Eventually, Mumbet won her freedom---- the first slave in Massachusetts to do so under the new constitution.
Strangely enough, after the trial, the Ashleys asked Mumbet to come back and work for them as a paid employee. She declined and instead went to work for Segdewick. Mumbet died in 1829, but her legacy lived on in her many descendants(后裔). One of her great-grandchildren was W.E.B. Du Bois, one of the founder of the NAACP, and an important writer and spokesperson for African American civil rights.
Mumbet’s tombstone still stands in the Massachusetts cemetery where she was buried. It reads, in part: “She was born a slave and remained a slave and remained a slave for nearly thirty years. She could neither read nor write, yet in her own sphere she had no superior or equal.”

閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個選項(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項。
Each morning Grandpa was up early sitting at the kitchen table, reading his book. His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to copy him in every way he could.
One day the grandson asked, “Grandpa, I try to read the book just like you, but I don’t understand it, and I forget what I understand as soon as I close the book. What good does reading the book do?”
The grandpa quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, “Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water.”
The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out before he got back to the house. The grandpa laughed and said, “You’ll have to move a little faster next time,” and sent him back to the river with the basket to try again.
This time the boy ran faster, but again the basket was empty before he returned. Out of breath, he told his grandpa that it was impossible to carry water in a basket, so he went to get a bucket instead.
The grandpa said, “I don’t want a bucket of water; I want a basket of water. You’re just not trying hard enough.”
The boy again dipped the basket into the river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandpa the basket was empty again. Out of breath, he said, “Grandpa, it’s useless!”
“So, you think it is useless?” the grandpa said, “Look at the basket.”
The boy looked at the basket and for the first time he realized that the basket was different. It had been transformed from a dirty old coal basket and was now clean.
“Grandson, that’s what happens when you read the book. You might not understand or remember everything, but when you read it, you’ll be changed, inside and out.”

“Tiger Mother”parenting raises media storm.A new book written by a self-described Chinese descent(血統(tǒng))on her super-strict parenting—Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother has raised media storm and fierce debates in the U.S.
Amy Chua is a Yale Law School professor and the mother of two teenage girls.She is the daughter of immigrants of Chinese descent.In the Chinese culture,the tiger symbolizes strength and power.In her book Ms.Chua writes about how she demanded excellence from her daughters.For example,her daughters,Sophia and Louisa,were never allowed to attend a sleep-over,be in a school play,watch TV or play computer games.They couldn't choose their own after-class activities or get any grade less than an A.They had to play piano or violin—and no other musical instruments.She writes that if a Chinese child gets a B—which she says“would never happen”—there would be“a screaming,hairtearing explosion”.She describes making her 7-year-old daughter play a piano piece perfectly—yelling and not letting her leave the bench even to use the bathroom—until it was.
Many people have criticized Chua.Some say her parenting methods were abusive.She even admits that her husband,who is not Chinese,objects to her parenting style.But she says that was the way her parents raised her and her three sisters.
Stacy DeBroff,who has written four books about parenting,says Amy Chua's parenting style is not limited to Chinese families.She says it represents a traditional way of parenting among immigrants seeking a better future for their children.But she also sees a risk.When children have no time to be social or to follow their own interests,they might not develop other skills that they need to succeed in life.Stacy DeBroff advised parents not to just repeat the way they were raised.
Alison Lo,an assistant professor of marketing at the University of Washington's Bothell campus said,“I don't think Amy is advocating a best practice of parenting style,or that success and achievements are critical yardsticks(衡量標準)of a good life.But I can imagine how strong her daughters' college applications are going to be.For many parents whose dreams are seeing their kids graduating from a competitive university,Amy is sharing with the readers that it is achievable by persistent,dedicated parental guidance,”Lo said in an interview with Julie Muhlstein,a columnist with the US-based Heraldnet.com.
“In that sence,a young adult's giftedness can be born,or made,”Lo continued.
【語篇解讀】 耶魯大學華裔教授Amy Chua的新書《虎媽戰(zhàn)歌》成為美國人熱議的話題,她提出的“中國式”嚴苛教子方法引發(fā)了巨大爭議。
16.According to the passage,which is TRUE of Amy Chua?
A.She is an easy-going woman.
B.She is an assistant professor.
C.She is a demanding parent.
D.She is a cruel teacher.
答案 C [推理判斷題。由文章第二段“In her book Ms.Chua writes about how she demanded excellence from her daughters.”及其后她對孩子的苛刻要求的“幾個不準”、孩子自己的“幾個不能”以及成績總是A等,足見其為一個“苛求的”人,即demanding。]
17.Which of the following are Sophia and Louisa allowed to do?
A.Playing the piano.
B.Playing the guitar.
C.Dating with boys.
D.Getting an A minus.
答案 A [細節(jié)理解題。文章第二段“They had to play piano or violin—and no other musical instruments.”很清楚地表明答案為A。]
18.Stacy DeBroff advised parents to________.
A.seek a better future for their children
B.develop their own style of parenting
C.be strict with their children
D.follow Amy Chua's parenting style
答案 B [細節(jié)理解題。由文章倒數(shù)第三段末尾:“Stacy DeBroff advised parents not to just repeat the way they were raised.”可以得出答案為B。]
19.Alison Lo concluded that________.
A.persistent,dedicated parental guidance is the best parenting style
B.parents should respect children's personalities
C.a gifted child was born with talent
D.a teenager can be raised to be talent by strict parenting
答案 D [推理判斷題。文章末尾句:“In that sense,a young adult's giftedness can be born,or made.”“從這個意義上講,年輕人的天賦可以是天生的,也可以通過后天嚴格的教養(yǎng)而激發(fā)”,故D項正確。A項與原文意思achievable“有成就的”有出入,文中并無信息表明“persistent,dedicated parental guidance”是“最好的”。]

The European union announced plans on Tuesday to temporarily ban the use of animals cloning for food eroduction.while allowing imports of food derived from the offspring(后代)of clones from the United States and elsewhere.
The report from the European Commission followed a call by EU lawmakers in July for a total ban on food derived from cloned animals and their traditionally bred offspring,citing ethical concerns over the industrial production of cloned meat.
The Commission said a temporary five-year EU ban on cloning for food production was justified on animal welfare grounds,but said banning imports of food from the offspring of clones was unnecessary and would disrupt global trade.
“Food from cloned animals is safe.In fact,the scientific opinion is that it cannot be differentiated in any way from food from normally bred animals.The issue is animal welfare”,EU Health and Consumer Commissioner John Dalli told reporters.
Food derived from the offspring of clones presents no such animal welfare issues,and banning its sale and import would be impossible because the origin is untraceable,Dalli said.
“Such a prohibition would lead to a ban of imports of any food of animal origin (meat,milk and processed products) from third countries allowing the cloning technique,”the report said.
“We're not going to regulate for the world,”Dalli added.
But animal welfare groups criticized the Commission's decision,saying it had bowed to pressure from third countries.
“We do not accept the Commission's position that it would be impossible to enforce a ban that includes the offspring of cloned animals,as (other) meat traceability systems are already in place,”said Sonja Van Tichelen,director of the Eurogroup for Animals.
【語篇解讀】 歐盟委員會近日宣布,歐盟在今后5年暫停將克隆動物用于食品生產,但是克隆動物通過傳統(tǒng)方式繁殖的后代用于食品生產和銷售不在禁止之列。這一決議受到動物保護者們的譴責。
20.From the passage we can infer that the ban is________.
A.justified B.welcome
C.controversial D.meaningless
答案 C [推理判斷題。文章首先介紹了該禁令的內容及產生的背景,最后兩段又介紹了動物保護者們對該禁令的異議,由此可以推斷,人們對這一禁令是有爭議的(controversial)。justified“合乎情理的”;welcome“受歡迎的”;meaningless“沒有意義的”。]
21.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?
A.The ban is permanent.
B.The imports of food from the offspring of clones are not banned.
C.Animal welfare groups support the ban.
D.The ban has been put into effect.
答案 B [細節(jié)理解題。由第一段可知這一禁令是暫時的,且不禁止進口克隆動物的后代制成的食品,該決議目前仍在計劃中,因此B項正確,A、D項錯誤。由倒數(shù)第二段可知動物保護者并不支持該禁令,故C項錯誤。]
22.Which of the following is the reason for Commission's decision on the ban according to
animal welfare groups?
A.The origin of food derived from the offspring of clones is untraceable.
B.Food from cloned animals is safe.
C.The issue is for animal welfare.
D.The pressure comes from third countries.
答案 D [推理判斷題。由倒數(shù)第二段可知動物保護者們認為歐盟委員會是迫于第三世界國家的壓力才決定實施這一禁令的,故選D。]
23.What might be the most suitable title for the passage?
A.The plans of the European Union.
B.A temporary five-year EU ban.
C.The EU proposes a ban on animal cloning for food.
D.The danger of food derived from cloned animals.
答案 C [標題概括題。本文主要介紹了歐盟宣布將就克隆食品提出一項立法建議,故C項最能概括全文。]
24.The text is most probably a________.
A.news report B.book review
C.newspaper ad D.science-fiction story
答案 A [文章出處題。通讀全文可以看出,本文主要介紹了歐盟的一個決議,以及人們對此的不同看法,故最可能是一篇新聞報道,由此可以看出A項正確。]
