　　二、閱讀理解

　　(2024·湖南卷)

　　Have your parents ever inspected your room to see if you cleaned it properly? Imagine having your entire house, garage, and yard inspected at any time—with no warning. Inspections were a regular part of lighthouse (燈塔) living, and a keeper's reputation depended on the results. A few times each year, an inspector arrived to look over the entire light station. The inspections were supposed to be a surprise, but keepers sometimes had advance notice.

　　Once lighthouses had telephones, keepers would call each other to warn that the inspector was approaching. After boats began flying special flags noting the inspector was aboard, the keeper's family made it a game to see who could notice the boat first. As soon as someone spotted the boat, everyone would do last-minute tidying and change into fancy clothes. The keeper then scurried to put on his dress uniform and cap. Children of keepers remember inspectors wearing white gloves to run their fingers over door frames and windowsills looking for dust.

　　Despite the serious nature of inspections, they resulted in some funny moments. Betty Byrnes remembered when her mother did not have time to wash all the dishes before an inspection. At the time, people did not have dishwashers in their homes. In an effort to clean up quickly, Mrs. Byrnes tossed all the dishes into a big bread pan, covered them with a cloth, and stuck them in the oven. If the inspector opened the oven door, it would look like bread was baking. He never did.

　　One day, Glenn Furst's mother put oil on the kitchen floor just before the inspector entered their house. Like floor wax, the oil made the floors shiny and helped protect the wood. This time, though, she used a little too much oil. When the inspector extended his hand to greet Glenn's mother, he slipped on the freshly oiled surface. “He came across that floor waving his arms like a young bird attempting its first flight，” Glenn later wrote. After he steadied himself, he shook Glenn's mother's hand, and the inspection continued as though nothing had happened.

　　語篇解讀　本文主要講述了燈塔巡視員對燈塔的巡視，以及燈塔看守人一家應(yīng)對巡視的幾種搞笑手段。

　　1．What does Paragraph 1 tell us about the inspection at the light station?

　　A. It was carried out once a year.

　　B. It was often announced in advance.

　　C. It was important for the keeper's fame.

　　D. It was focused on the garage and yard.

　　答案與解析　C　考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章第一段第三句“Inspections were a regular part of lighthouse (燈塔) living, and a keeper's reputation depended on the results”可知，巡視員的檢查結(jié)果與燈塔看守人的名譽有關(guān)。

　　2．The family began making preparations immediately after ________.

　　A. one of the members saw the boat

　　B. a warning call reached the lighthouse

　　C. the keeper put on the dress uniform and cap

　　D. the inspector flew special flags in the distance

　　答案與解析　A　考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章第二段第三句“As soon as someone spotted the boat, everyone would do last-minute tidying and change into fancy clothes”可得出答案。

　　3．Mrs. Byrnes put the dishes in the oven because this would ________.

　　A. result in some fun

　　B. speed up washing them

　　C. make her home look tidy

　　D. be a demand from the inspector

　　答案與解析　C　考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章第三段第四句“In an effort to clean up quickly, Mrs. Byrnes tossed all the dishes into a big bread pan, covered them with a cloth, and stuck them in the oven”可知，Byrnes太太將盤子放到烤爐中的目的是讓她的房子看起來整潔。

　　4．If the inspector had opened the oven door, he would have seen ________.

　　A. an empty pan

　　B. many clean dishes

　　C. pieces of baked bread

　　D. a cloth covering something

　　答案與解析　D　考查細(xì)節(jié)理解。根據(jù)文章第三段中的“Mrs. Byrnes tossed all the dishes into a big bread pan, covered them with a cloth, and stuck them in the oven”和“If the inspector opened the oven door, it would look like bread was baking”可得出答案。

　　5．The inspector waved his arms ________.

　　A. to try his best to keep steady

　　B. to show his satisfaction with the floor

　　C. to extend a warm greeting to Glenn's mother

　　D. to express his intention to continue the inspection

　　答案與解析　A　考查推理判斷。根據(jù)文章最后一段最后三句的內(nèi)容可知，巡視員揮舞手臂是為了保持平衡。

　　三、完形填空

　　語篇解讀　本文是一篇環(huán)境類的說明文。文章從奇特的形狀、生活特性、經(jīng)濟價值等方面介紹了Sonoran Desert(索諾蘭沙漠)的標(biāo)志性植物——樹形仙人掌。

　　1．C　根據(jù)下文可知，樹形仙人掌有多達(dá)10個手形分支，所以形狀“獨特”，故選unique“獨特的”。general“普通的”；basic“基本的”；lovely“可愛的”。

　　6．A　像沙漠里其他所有的“植物”一樣，因此選plants。life“生命”；animal“動物”；creature“生物”。

　　7．D　樹形仙人掌通過它們的長根莖吸收水。absorb“吸收”，符合語境。pour“倒，灌”；squeeze“擠壓”；pump“抽出”。

　　8．B　根據(jù)下文可知，作為許多動物賴以生存的食物和家園，樹形仙人掌是沙漠“極為重要的”部分，因此選vital“極重要的”。independent“獨立的”；original“原始的”；mysterious“神秘的”。
