Ⅰ.阅读理解(导学号02516150)
(2018·广西重点高中第一次模拟)Growing up in Puerto Rico，our family was no different from so many others.My parents got married after my father came back when the war ended.Both of my parents were struggling with the hard economic realities of the time.But somehow，they found time to cherish those cultural values that shaped our everyday life.
In our daily life，we celebrated together with our friends or family members every birthday，every graduation，and all holidays with music and dancing，typical foods.When we visited our family in the countryside—a trip that took about two hours in a car，with five children fighting as to who would get a window or the front seat—we would break into a song，and somehow the trip would turn into one full of happiness and fun.We would sing not only interesting children's songs but also beautiful love songs—songs about the love of the country though we didn't understand the meaning of the words many times.
I came to Philadelphia for the first time in 1973 to do a residency (实习) in family medicine.I remember the many hours of work.I was facing issues of life and death and suffering the clearly social unfairness and issues of poverty and race.These were all aggravated by my feeling of cultural differences.
An important turning point in my life happened one Saturday night when I attended a concert of Puerto Rican singer and composer Antonio Caban Vale.The music showed my familiar rhythms，and the words spoke to my heart.I had found a space to express，celebrate，and share my culture in Philadelphia.Therefore，I believe diversity is seen as an advantage and not as a disadvantage.As a Puerto Rican，I am a mixture of races and I believe in my strength because of this.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过自己家庭的文化价值观以及自己在文化差异中的经历等内容阐述了自己对文化差异的看法。
1．What do we know about the author's parents?
A．They lived a welloff life.
B．They were famous in Puerto Rico.
C．They had different cultural values.
D．They took cultural values seriously.
解析：D [考查细节理解。从第一段的“Both of my parents were struggling...cherish those cultural values that shaped our everyday life”可知，即使在困难时期，作者的父母也非常重视文化价值观。]
2．Why does the author mention the trip in Paragraph 2?
A．To prove her pride in her culture.
B．To show fun brought by cultural values.
C．To express their love for the country.
D．To explain what her family values are.
解析：B [考查推理判断。从第二段的内容可知，作者一家人一路欢歌，尽管他们很多时候还不懂歌词的意思，但他们享受其中的快乐。再结合全文的内容可知，作者提及这一段旅程的目的是说明文化价值观带来的乐趣。]
3．Which word is closest in meaning to the underlined word “aggravated”？
A．Worsened. B．Appreciated.
C．Criticized. D．Caused.
解析：A [考查词义猜测。从第三段的“issues of life and death and suffering the clearly social unfairness and issues of poverty and race”可知，作者意识到了不平等、贫困、种族等社会问题，而当作者想到文化差异时，作者认为这些情况更严重了。故该词意为“恶化，加重”，跟A项同义。]
4．What did the concert make the author aware of?
A．The possibility of celebrating her own culture.
B．The right to share one's culture with others.
C．The happiness of possessing unique cultural values.
D．The right of cultures to coexist in society.
解析：D [考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“Therefore，I believe diversity is seen as an advantage and not as a disadvantage.As a Puerto Rican，I am a mixture of races and I believe in my strength because of this”可知，Therefore后面的内容是结果，而原因自然是前面提到的作者听音乐会的经历，作者由听音乐会的经历受到启发，认为对社会而言，文化差异是优势而不是劣势，由此可推知，作者认为不同的文化有权利共存。]

(2018·河北省“五校联盟”高三教学质量监测)
How to Be Creative
Most of us think that creativity is a quality belonging only to artists，writers，or dancers，rather than ourselves. __1__ The following tips are a great beginning for developing our creativity.
1．Get out of your comfort zone
We eagerly accept the familiar and fear the unknown.Break out of your usual patterns and welcome creativity into your life.As stated earlier，the human brain was designed to recognize patterns. __2__ In fact，our comfort zone is nothing more than a collection of patterns.As we become more efficient at recognizing and using patterns，we rely less on creativity to find new paths.We should force ourselves out of our comfort zones and open up new possibilities.
2．Try different things
If you always do what you've always done，you'll always get what you've always got.We are creatures of habits and routines，and creativity hates routines.If you usually drive to work，take the subway for a few days. __3__ Interrupt your routine，experiment and try something new.New things are often creative，but the same old thing never is.
3． __4__
Having a great idea is not enough；you must work to make it a reality.Have you ever seen a new product and realized that you thought of the same thing long ago? Yet someone else is making money with “your” idea. __5__ The difference between a dreamer and a doer is action.Do whatever it takes to bring your ideas to life.If you can put them into practice，you are well on your way to improving your creativity in all areas of your life.
A．Take action
B．Seek several options
C．Think from the other person's point of view.
D．If you normally eat in the office，have lunch under a tree.
E．The truth is that we are all born with the capacity to be creative.
F．We continue to create patterns and routines for almost everything we do.
G．We all have great ideas sometimes，but only a few people turn their ideas into realities.
[语篇解读] 本文主要介绍了一些培养创造力的技巧。
1．E [根据空后的“The following tips are a great beginning for developing our creativity”可知，事实上，我们是天生有创造力的，问题是如何开发这些创造力，所以选E项。]
2．F [根据上下文的“Break out of your usual patterns”“to recognize patterns”和“a collection of patterns”可知，应选F项。]
3．D [根据空前的一句和空后的“Interrupt your routine，experiment and try something new”可推知，我们应有所创新，打破常规，因此选D项。]
4．A [根据下文的“The difference between a dreamer and a doer is action”可知，有了梦想后，最重要的是要立即行动，所以选A项。]
5．G [根据上文中的“Having a great idea is not enough；you must work to make it a reality”与下文中的“The difference between a dreamer and a doer is action”可知，应选G项，G项起承上启下的作用。]
