【正文】 king on tiny folding devices that could lead to breakthroughs in medicine and puting. There39。It39。 in 1995, Japanese engineers launched a satellite with solar panels that folded like a map. At one time or another in your life you have probably done origami, even if it was just making a paper airplane or something more plicated like a paper crane. The chances are that as you did it, you reflected on how inventive this traditional art is. Animals, boxes, flowers, boats: it all can be created from a single square or rectangular sheet of paper simply by folding it. No cutting, no pasting. 【點(diǎn)評(píng)】本題考點(diǎn)涉及細(xì)節(jié)理解和推理判斷兩個(gè)題型的考查，是一篇文化類(lèi)閱讀，考生需要準(zhǔn)確掌握細(xì)節(jié)信息，并根據(jù)上下文進(jìn)行邏輯推理，從而選出正確答案。因此推斷作者說(shuō)明了對(duì)旅行者來(lái)說(shuō)了解不同地方的文化差異很重要。 （4）考查推理判斷。t know’ is impolite.”可推斷，因尤卡坦人可能會(huì)給游客一個(gè)錯(cuò)誤的答案的目的是為了禮貌。根據(jù)最后一段中的“But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers‘I don39。故選B。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中的“People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map。故選D。根據(jù)第二段中的“Foreign tourists are often confused（困惑的）in Japan because most streets there don39。s useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly. have similar understanding of politeness.

You say, Yes, but how many miles is it? They don39。 In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat. In many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.Foreign tourists are often confused(困惑的)in Japan because most streets there don39。 【英語(yǔ)】高三英語(yǔ)閱讀理解(社會(huì)文化)解題技巧講解及練習(xí)題(含答案)含解析一、高中英語(yǔ)閱讀理解社會(huì)文化類(lèi)1．閱讀理解 I travel a lot, and I find out different styles(風(fēng)格)of directions every time I ask How can I get to the post office? t have names. In Japan, people use landmarks(地標(biāo))in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop. People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map. They measure distance in time, not miles. How far away is the post office? you ask. Oh, they answer, it39。t know. s true that a person doesn39。t know. People in Yucatan believe that I don39。s important for travelers to understand cultural differences.39。 （1）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。t have names. In Japan, people use landmarks（地標(biāo)）in their directions instead of street names.”可知在日本通常是用地標(biāo)指路。 （2）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。 they measure distance in time, not miles.”可知，在洛杉磯用走一段路用多少時(shí)間來(lái)指路。 （3）考查推理判斷。t know.’People in Yucatan believe that ‘I don39。故選C。根據(jù)第一段中的“I find out different ‘styles’ of directions every time I ask ‘How can I get to the post office?’ 以及下文舉例說(shuō)明可知，作者圍繞回答問(wèn)路的風(fēng)格，介紹了不同國(guó)度的不同文化。故選A。2．閱讀理解 But did you ever stop to think how the same techniques might be applied to engineering? Equipment that could be of real practical use? Origami meets the demand for things that need to be small when transported and large when they arrive, like the everyday umbrella. In fact, origamiinspired creations have already flown in space。 39。s now mathematically proven that you can pretty much fold anything, says physicist Robert J. Lang, who quit his engineering job eight years ago to fold things full time. Lang, an origami enthusiast since age six, advised a advised wellknown ear manufacturer the best way to fold an airbag into a dashboard. He is currently working on a space telescope lens that, if all goes according to plan, should be able to unfold to the size of a football field.s no doubt that puters of the future may contain tiny, folded motors or capacitors for faster processing and better memory.s Erik Demaine, we39。t want to bet against it.（1）What do we know about origami? A.It involves interesting ideas.C.It has to do with cutting and pasting.（2）Which of the following is an application of origami? A.A satellite is equipped with solar panels and a folded map.C.A future puter contains many huge folded motors.（3）What is Erik Demaine39。HopefulB.Disapproving.D.Entertainment.B.Education.D.折紙工程將在很大程度上影響未來(lái)的醫(yī)藥、計(jì)算機(jī)和機(jī)器人行業(yè)。根據(jù)第一段中的“The chances are that as you did it, you reflected on how inventive this traditional art is. Animals, boxes, flowers, boats: it all can be created from a single square or rectangular sheet of paper simply by folding it. No cutting, no pasting.”可知，折紙是一個(gè)具有創(chuàng)造性的傳統(tǒng)藝術(shù)，我們不用裁剪或拼貼，只通過(guò)折疊就可以把一張正方形或者三角形的紙變成動(dòng)物、紙盒、花、船等東西，由此推測(cè)折紙需要有創(chuàng)造性的和有趣的想法。 （2）考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。故選C。根據(jù)最后一段中的“Applications for origami engineering go further than many of us might imagine”可知Erik Demaine認(rèn)為折紙工程的應(yīng)用遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超出了我們的想象，由此可推測(cè)Erik Demaine對(duì)折紙工程的未來(lái)充滿(mǎn)希望。 （4）考查推理判斷。s no doubt that puters of the future may contain tiny, folded motors or capacitors for faster processing and better memory. ”和第五段中的“‘Some day,’ says MIT3
