南陽一中 2020 年秋期高三第二次月考 英語試題 第二部分閱讀理解 (共兩節(jié),滿分 40 分 ) 第一節(jié) (共 15 小題 。每小題 2 分,滿分 30 分 ) 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。 A Homestay provides English language students with the opportunity to speak English outside the classroom and the experience of being part of a British home. What to Expect The host will provide acmodation and meals. Rooms will be cleaned and bedcovers changed at least once a week. You will be given the house key and the host is there to offer help and advice as well as to take an interest in your physical and mental health. Acmodation Zones Homestays are located in London mainly in Zones 2 } 3 and 4 of the transport system. Most hosts do not live in the town centre as much of central London is mercial and not residential(居住的 ).Zones 3 and 4 often offer larger acmodation in a less crowded area. It is very convenient to travel in London by Underground. Meal Plans Available ◇ Continental Breakfast ◇ Breakfast and Dinner ◇ Breakfast, Packed Lunch and Dinner It39。s important to note that few English families still provide a traditional cooked breakfast. Your acmodation includes Continental Breakfast which normally consists of fruit juice, cereal, bread and tea or coffee. Cheese, fruit and cold meat are not normally part of a Continental Breakfast in England. Dinners usually consist of meat or fish with vegetables followed by dessert, fruit and coffee. Friends If you wish to invite a friend over to visit, you must first ask your host39。s permission. You have no right to entertain friends in a family home as some families feel it is an invasion of their privacy. SelfCatering Acmodation in Private Homes Acmodation on a roomonly basis includes shared kitchen and bathroom facilities and often a main living room. This kind of acmodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more suitable for the longstay student. However, it does not provide the same family atmosphere as an ordinary homestay and may not benefit those who need to practise English at home quite as much. 21. The passage is probably written for_.

Most hosts do not live in the town center as much of central London is mercial but not residential(居住的 )”可知,居民區(qū)主要位于 Zones 2,3 and 4,市中心主要是商業(yè)區(qū),不是居民區(qū),由此可以推知,商業(yè)區(qū)主要位于Zone 1。 4.細節(jié)理解題。由 Meal Plans Available部分中的“ Continental Breakfast, which normally consists of fruit juice, cereal(谷物類食品 ), bread and tea or coffee”,故 C選項正確。 5.細節(jié)理解題。由最后一段中的“ This kind of acmodation offers an independent lifestyle and is more suitable for the longstay student”可知, selfcatering acmodation為住宿學(xué)生提供比較獨立的生活方式,所以學(xué)生們可以享受到更多的自由。故 D選項正確。 【備注】這是一篇介紹說明類文章。文章為那些到英國學(xué)習(xí)英語,打算寄宿在英國家庭中的學(xué)生們介紹了寄宿的相關(guān)信息。 B Millions of people pass through the gates of Disney39。s entertainment parks in California, Florida and Japan each year. What makes these places an almost universal attraction? What makes foreign kings and queens and other important people want to visit these Disney parks? Well, one reason is the way they39。re treated once they get there. The people at Disney go out of their way to serve their guests, as they prefer to call them, and to see that they enjoy themselves. All new employees, from vice presidents to parttime workers, begin their employment by attending Disney University and taking Traditions P39。.

All employees are shown how their part is important in making the park a success. After passing Traditions I, the employees go on to do more specialized training for their specific jobs. No detail is missed. A simple job like taking tickets requires four eighthour days of training. When one ticket taker was asked why it took so much training for such a simple, ordinary job, he replied, What happens if someone wants to know where the restrooms are, when the parade starts or what bus to take back to the campgrounds? We need to know the answers or where to get them quickly. Our constant aim is to help our guests enjoy the party. Even Disney39。s managers get involved in the daily management of the park. Every year, the managers leave their desks and business suits and put on special service clothes. For a full week, the bosses sell hot dogs or ice cream, take tickets or drive the monorail(單軌車 ), and take up any of the 100 jobs that make the entertainment park e alive. The managers agree that this week helps them to see the pany39。s goals more clearly. All these efforts to serve the public well have made Walt Disney Productions famous. Disney is considered by many as the best mass service provider in America or the world. As one longtime business observer once said, How Disney treats people, municates with them, rewards them, is in my view the very reason for his great success. I have watched, very caref
