命题分析
阅读理解文章体裁可以分为:应用文 记叙文 说明文 议论文
虽然阅读理解的材料内容千变万化,但考试中的考查方式是有限的,只要能够掌握以下几种主要类型题目的阅读技巧,那么阅读理解拿高分,甚至拿满分就是可以做到的了。
阅读理解题的速选技能,需要结合下面几种题型:主旨大意题,细节理解题,推理判断题,词义猜测题。
近三年高考阅读理解题,细节题占有较大比例,难度一般不大,答案大都可以从文章中直接找到依据;推理判断题呈不断上升的趋势,且已由过去简单的对号入座直接答题转向通过语句的同义或反义转换来考查考生对英语语言的理解能力,因此难度比往年有所增加;主旨题的考查占有十分重要的位置,一般针对某一语段或某一语篇的主题、标题或目的设题,这类题目考查的范围是基本论点、文章标题、主题或段落大意等;词义题所要求的词或词组往往是熟词新意,有的是中学课本中没出现过的,仅考查词或短语在该篇短文中的含义;观点态度题也在高考中有所体现。
秒选技能
词汇层面——巧跨生词障碍:
在阅读过程中,对于无关紧要的词汇要学着“跳过去”,比如人名、地名、组织名等。对影响阅读质量、影响解题的关键生词要“猜出来”。
句意层面——巧破长难句型
对于阅读中设题处的长难句要学会分析。分析长难句的核心技法是根据五种基本句式摘出句子主干——主谓(宾),特别注意:
1.一个句子有且只有一个谓语,如果一个句子有了两个或两个以上的谓语,则必有连词或从句的出现;
2.去除所有修饰成分,包括介词短语、非谓语动词、从句等;
3.充分利用并列成分。
语篇层面——熟悉体裁特点
不同类型的语篇有不同的(命题)特点。考虑语篇,要考虑语篇的体裁、发展线索、框架结构、语篇的立论句等。
解题层面——知晓选项特征
阅读理解正确选项往往通过同义改写、抽象概括、原词复现、正话反说等方式转化而来,而错误选项通常具有张冠李戴、无中生有、偷换概念、正误参半等方式而对考生形成干扰。
(一) 细节理解题
在考查形式上分为两种:细节查找题与细节推理题。
1. 细节查找题:比较简单,只要能看懂文章,从文章中找到问题定位的关键词句,就可以顺利解题。
2. 细节推断题:需要借助同义词转换,概念解析,归纳事实等方法对原文信息进行变换,然后再进行进一步的推理或鉴别。
(二)推理判断题
这是阅读理解的重难点所在,考查形式也多种多样,除了细节理解,还有结局趋势预测题,文章来源推测题,作者态度观点推测题。
1. 阅读全文,理解文章大意:具体可以参考主旨大意题的解题步骤,切忌主观臆断,常识经验来代替文章内容或观点。
2. 避免误入命题陷阱:第一类陷阱是把第一类陷阱是把原文中的关键词或限定词去掉或用其他词进行替换。比如把张三当李四,把部分当全部,把否定当肯定,把将来发生当成已经发生等。第二类陷阱是在选项中设置一些与问题无关的干扰项。这些干扰项本身可能是文章中的原句,但是与问题无关;或者这些选项内容本身符合常识,但是作者在文中没有提及或者与作者观点不符。
(三)词义猜测题
这种类型的题,主要分为以下三种:
1. 猜测某个词、词组、句子的意义;
2. 对文中的多义词或词组进行定义;
3. 判断某个代词的指代的对象。
这类题型应在精读中应当注意:
1.分析长难句。
2.注意熟词生义,一词多义。
(四)主旨大意题
分为两种:一种是要求归纳标题,另一种是归纳段落大意或者文章中心思想。
1. 注意文章的首句和尾句,以及therefore, thus, but, however, in short这些很可能提示文章主旨的词语。
2. 分段概括大意,逐项排除最终确定答案。需要注意避免出现概括不够,如:以偏概全,过度解读等人为的主观臆断性错误。

(2023年全国乙卷)A篇阅读理解 应用文
. PRACTITIONERS
Jacqueline Felice de Almania (c.1322) highlights the suspicion that women practicing medicine faced. Born to a Jewish family in Florence, she moved to Paris where she worked as a physician and performed surgery. In 1322 she was tried for practicing unlawfully. In spite of the court hearing testimonials (证明) of her ability as a doctor, she was banned from medicine.
James Barry (c.1789 — 1865) was born Margaret Bulkley in Ireland but, dressed as a man, she was accepted by Edinburgh University to study medicine. She qualified as a surgeon in 1813, then joined the British Army, serving overseas. Barry retired in 1859, having practiced her entire medical profession living and working as a man.
Tan Yunxian (1461 — 1554) was a Chinese physician who learned her skills from her grandparents. Chinese women at the time could not serve apprenticeships (学徒期) with doctors. However, Tan passed the official exam. Tan treated women from all walks of life. In 1511, Tan wrote a book, Sayings of a Female Doctor, describing her life as a physician.
Rebecca Lee Crumpler (1831 — 1895) worked as a nurse for eight years before studying in medical college in Boston in 1860. Four years later, she was the first African American woman to receive a medical degree. She moved to Virginia in 1865, where she provided medical care to freed slaves.
21 What did Jacqueline and James have in common?
A. Doing teaching jobs. B. Being hired as physicians.
C. Performing surgery. D. Being banned from medicine.
22. How was Tan Yunxian different from the other practitioners?
A. She wrote a book. B. She went through trials.
C. She worked as a dentist. D. She had formal education.
23. Who was the first African American with a medical degree?
A. Jacqueline Felice de Almania. B. Tan Yunxian.
C. James Barry. D. Rebecca Lee Crumpler.

(2023年全国乙卷)B 篇 阅读理解 记叙文
真题呈现
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
Living in Iowa and trying to become a photographer specializing in landscape (风景) can be quite a challenge, mainly because the corn state lacks geographical variation.
Although landscapes in the Midwest tend to be quite similar, either farm fields or highways, sometimes I find distinctive character in the hills or lakes. To make some of my landscape shots, I have traveled up to four hours away to shoot within a 10-minute time frame. I tend to travel with a few of my friends to state parks or to the countryside to go on adventures and take photos along the way.
Being at the right place at the right time is decisive in any style of photography. I often leave early to seek the right destinations so I can set up early to avoid missing the moment I am attempting to photograph. I have missed plenty of beautiful sunsets/sunrises due to being on the spot only five minutes before the best moment.
One time my friends and I drove three hours to Devil’s Lake, Wisconsin, to climb the purple quartz (石英) rock around the lake. After we found a crazy-looking road that hung over a bunch of rocks, we decided to photograph the scene at sunset. The position enabled us to look over the lake with the sunset in the background. We managed to leave this spot to climb higher because of the spare time until sunset. However, we did not mark the route (路线) so we ended up almost missing the sunset entirely. Once we found the place, it was stressful getting lights and cameras set up in the limited time. Still, looking back on the photos, they are some of my best shots though they could have been so much better if I would have been prepared and managed my time wisely.
24. How does the author deal with the challenge as a landscape photographer in the Midwest?
A. By teaming up with other photographers. B. By shooting in the countryside or state parks.
C. By studying the geographical conditions. D. By creating settings in the corn fields.
25. What is the key to successful landscape photography according to the author?
A. Proper time management. B. Good shooting techniques.
C. Adventurous spirit. D. Distinctive styles.
26. What can we infer from the author trip with friends to Devil’s Lake?
A. They went crazy with the purple quartz rock.
B. They felt stressed while waiting for the sunset.
C. They reached the shooting spot later than expected.
D. They had problems with their emipment.
27. How does the author find his photos taken at Devil’s Lake?
A. Amusing. B. Satisfying.
C. Encouraging. D. Comforting.

(2023年全国乙卷)C 篇阅读理解 说明文
真题呈现
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
What comes into your mind when you think of British food? Probably fish and chips, or a Sunday dinner of meat and two vegetables. But is British food really so uninteresting? Even though Britain has a reputation for less-than-impressive cuisine, it is producing more top class chefs who appear frequently on our television screens and whose recipe books frequently top the best seller lists.
It’s thanks to these TV chefs rather than any advertising campaign that Britons are turning away from meat-and-two-veg and ready-made meals and becoming more adventurous in their cooking habits. It is recently reported that the number of those sticking to a traditional diet is slowly declining and around half of Britain’s consumers would like to change or improve their cooking in some way. There has been a rise in the number of students applying for food courses at UK universities and colleges. It seems that TV programmes have helped change what people think about cooking.
According to a new study from market analysts 1 in 5 Britons say that watching cookery programmes on TV has encouraged them to try different food. Almost one third say they now use a wider variety of ingredients (配料) than they used to, and just under 1 in 4 say they now buy better quality ingredients than before. One in four adults say that TV chefs have made them much more confident about expanding their cookery knowledge and skills, and young people are also getting more interested in cooking. The UK’s obsession (痴迷) with food is reflected through television scheduling. Cookery shows and documentaries about food are broadcast more often than before. With an increasing number of male chefs on TV, it’s no longer “uncool” for boys to like cooking.
28. What do people usually think of British food?
A. It is simple and plain. B. It is rich in nutrition.
C. It lacks authentic tastes. D. It deserves a high reputation.
29. Which best describes cookery programme on British TV?
A. Authoritative. B. Creative. C. Profitable. D. Influential.
30. Which is the percentage of the people using more diverse ingredients now?
A. 20%. B. 24%. C. 25%. D. 33%.
31. What might the author continue talking about?
A. The art of cooking in other countries. B. Male chefs on TV programmes.
C. Table manners in the UK. D. Studies of big eaters.
全解全析
【篇章解读】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了电视烹饪节目引起了英国人日常饮食、烹饪习惯以及对烹饪态度的变化。
28. 【答案】A
【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段的“What comes into your mind when you think of British food? Probably fish and chips, or a Sunday dinner of meat and two vegetables. But is British food really so uninteresting?”(当你想到英国食物时,你会想到什么?你可能想到的是炸鱼薯条,或是一肉两菜的周日晚餐。但是,英国食物真的如此无趣吗?)可知,提及英国食物,大家往往只是想到炸鱼薯条和周日烤肉,所以人们通常会觉得英国食物平平无奇。故选A项。
29. 【答案】D
【解析】推理判断题。根据第二段的“It’s thanks to these TV chefs rather than any advertising campaign that Britons are turning away from meat-and-two-veg and ready-made meals and becoming more adventurous in their cooking habits.”(正是由于电视上的这些大厨,而不是凭借广告宣传活动,英国人正在远离“一肉两菜”和速食餐,而变得更加愿意探索新的烹饪习惯。)和“It seems that TV programmes have helped change what people think about cooking.”(似乎电视节目帮助改变了人们对烹饪的看法。)可知,英国的烹饪节目能够改变英国人对烹饪的看法,尝试从传统的英式饮食走出来,尝试新的烹饪习惯,由此推知英国的烹饪节目具有很大的影响力。故选D项。
30. 【答案】D
【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段的“Almost one third say they now use a wider variety of ingredients (配料) than they used to, and just under 1 in 4 say they now buy better quality ingredients than before.”(几乎三分之一的人表示他们现在使用的配料比以前更多,将近四分之一的人表示他们现在购买的配料质量比以前更好。)可知,三分之一左右的人,也就是33%左右的人,使用的配料比以前更多。故选D项。
31. 【答案】B
【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段的最后一句“With an increasing number of male chefs on TV, it’s no longer “uncool” for boys to like cooking.”(随着电视上出现越来越多男性厨师,男孩子喜欢烹饪不再是一件“不酷”的事了。)可知,接下来,文章应该具体介绍电视上的男性厨师,从而与上文形成语义连贯。故选B项。

(2023年全国乙卷)D 篇阅读理解 说明文
真题呈现
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege one part of humanity, you cannot do it through texts alone, because only some of the world has ever had texts, while most of the world, for most of the time, has not. Writing is one of humanity’s later achievements, and until fairly recently even many literate (有文字的) societies recorded their concerns not only in writing but in things.
Ideally a history would bring together texts and objects, and some chapters of this book are able to do just that, but in many cases we simply can’t. The clearest example of this between literate and non-literate history is perhaps the first conflict, at Botany Bay, between Captain Cook’s voyage and the Australian Aboriginals. From the English side, we have scientific reports and the captain’s record of that terrible day. From the Australian side, we have only a wooden shield (盾) dropped by a man in flight after his first experience of gunshot. If we want to reconstruct what was actually going on that day, the shield must be questioned and interpreted as deeply and strictly as the written reports.
In addition to the problem of miscomprehension from both sides, there are victories accidentally or deliberately twisted, especially when only the victors know how to write. Those who are on the losing side often have only their things to tell their stories. The Caribbean Taino, the Australian Aboriginals, the African people of Benin and the Incas, all of whom appear in this book, can speak to us now of their past achievements most powerfully through the objects they made: a history told through things gives them back a voice. When we consider contact (联系) between literate and non-literate societies such as these, all our first-hand accounts are necessarily twisted, only one half of a dialogue. If we are to find the other half of that conversation, we have to read not just the texts, but the objects.
32. What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A. How past events should be presented. B. What humanity is concerned about.
C. Whether facts speak louder than words. D. Why written language is reliable.
33. What does the author indicate by mentioning Captain Cook in paragraph 2?
A. His report was scientific. B. He represented the local people.
C. He ruled over Botany Bay. D. His record was one-sided.
34. What does the underlined word “conversation” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Problem. B. History. C. Voice. D. Society.
35. Which of the following books is the text most likely selected from?
A. How Maps Tell Stories of the World B. A Short History of Australia
C. A History of the World in 100 Objects D. How Art Works Tell Stories
全解全析
【篇章解读】本文是一篇议论文。本文讨论了仅仅依靠书面文本来讲述世界历史的局限性,并强调了将物品纳入历史叙事以更好地理解无文字社会的重要性。
32. 【答案】A
【解析】段落大意题。根据文章第一段“If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege one part of humanity, you cannot do it through texts alone, because only some of the world has ever had texts, while most of the world, for most of the time, has not. Writing is one of humanity’s later achievements, and until fairly recently even many literate (有文字的) societies recorded their concerns not only in writing but in things. (如果你想讲述整个世界的历史,一段不以人类某一部分为特权的历史,你不能仅仅通过文本来讲述,因为世界上只有一部分人曾经有过文本,而世界上大多数人,在大多数时间里,都没有。写作是人类较晚的成就之一,直到最近,甚至许多有文字的社会也不仅用文字,而且用物件来记录他们所关心的事情。)”可推知,第一段主要讲述的是历史应该如何呈现给我们。故选A。
33. 【答案】D
【解析】推理判断题。根据文章第二段首句“Ideally a history would bring together texts and objects, and some chapters of this book are able to do just that, but in many cases we simply can’t. (理想情况下,历史应该将文本和物品结合在一起,本书的某些章节能够做到这一点,但在许多情况下,我们根本做不到。)”可推断,作者认为历史应该是文本和物品相结合的产物,但是很多情况下,我们做不到。再根据所举例子的下文“From the English side, we have scientific reports and the captain’s record of that terrible day. From the Australian side, we have only a wooden shield (盾) dropped by a man in flight after his first experience of gunshot. (在英国方面,我们有科学报告和船长对那可怕的一天的记录。从澳大利亚方面来看,我们只有一个木制盾牌,这是一名男子在第一次经历枪击后在飞行中扔下的。)”可知,作者举这个例子是为了说明船长的记录是片面的,只从自己的角度描述了问题。故选D。
34. 【答案】B
【解析】词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文“The Caribbean Taino, the Australian Aboriginals, the African people of Benin and the Incas, all of whom appear in this book, can speak to us now of their past achievements most powerfully through the objects they made: a history told through things gives them back a voice. When we consider contact (联系) between literate and non-literate societies such as these, all our first-hand accounts are necessarily twisted, only one half of a dialogue. (加勒比海的泰诺人、澳大利亚的土著人、贝宁的非洲人以及印加人,所有这些人都出现在这本书中,他们现在都可以通过他们制造的物品向我们讲述他们过去最强大的成就:通过物品讲述的历史给了他们一个声音。当我们考虑诸如此类的有文化社会和无文化社会之间的接触时,我们所有的第一手资料都必然是扭曲的,只有对话的一半。)”结合划线句“If we are to find the other half of that conversation, we have to read not just the texts, but the objects. (如果我们要找到对话的另一半,我们不仅要读文本,还要读物体。)”可知,我们对过去历史的了解,只是书写历史的人所想要让我们了解的历史,如果我们想要了解历史的另一半,我们不仅仅要读文本也要读对象。所以conversation指的是“历史”。故选B。
35. 【答案】C
【解析】推理判断题。根据文章第一段“If you want to tell the history of the whole world, a history that does not privilege one part of humanity, you cannot do it through texts alone, because only some of the world has ever had texts, while most of the world, for most of the time, has not.(如果你想讲述整个世界的历史,一段不以人类某一部分为特权的历史,你不能仅仅通过文本来讲述,因为世界上只有一部分人的历史曾经被文字记录过,而世界上大多数人,在大多数时间里,都没有。)”结合最后一段的“ If we are to find the other half of that conversation, we have to read not just the texts, but the objects. (如果我们要找到对话的另一半,我们不仅要读文本,还要读物体。)”可知,本文讲述仅仅依靠书面文本来讲述世界历史有局限性,想要更好的了解历史就要将文本和物品结合在一起。从而推断文章最有可能选自《100件物品中的世界史》。故选C。

Passage 3 (记叙文)
(2023·浙江金华·浙江金华第一中学校联考二模)“Anyone knows single parents who can’t afford to get their child’s hair done for school? I will braid (编辫子) it for free!”Brittany Starks wrote on a Facebook post.
She decided to offer her hair braiding services after a family friend delivered backpacks full of school supplies, clothing and shoes for Cayden and Ceniyah in early August. “At the time, I didn’t have anything for my kids to start school,” said Starks, who is in between homes and staying with her mother. “It meant so much to me.”
The unexpected gift made a big difference to Starks and her children, and it motivated her to pay it forward. Starks, who works two receptionist jobs, also braids hair part-time. “The hair-braiding process involves washing, blow-drying, and finally dividing the hair into small sections and braiding it. It also requires multiple supplies — including combs, brushes, hair jam and additional pieces of hair to weave in. It costs anywhere from $150 to $400 at a salon (美发厅), depending on the style,” Stacks explained. “But it can last for months and is a huge timesaver in the mornings.”
When she wrote the Facebook post, she assumed only a handful of people would reach out,but before she knew it, she had 35 appointments booked. Her Facebook inbox was suddenly full of messages from single parents, whose stories of hardship and financial challenges mirrored her own.
“There’s a huge need for this. I could really relate to a lot of the women who reached out, and it made me realize that what I was doing was really important,” said Stacks. “What got me the most was seeing the kids smile.” Given that there was less than two weeks before the start of school, Starks knew she needed to enlist help.
7.What got Brittany Starks to offer her hair braiding service?
A.A post on Facebook. B.Her friend’s timely help.
C.Her mother’s advice. D.A trip to her kids’ school.
8.What does Starks say about hair braiding?
A.It’s a bit dear. B.It’s time-wasting.
C.It’s an easy job. D.It’s a mother’s duty.
9.How does Starks feel about the response to her Facebook post?
A.Rather disturbing. B.Beyond expectation.
C.Far from satisfactory. D.Very disappointing.
10.What can we infer about Brittany Starks from the text?
A.She is single with one child. B.She is ambitious and arbitrary.
C.She is in need of helping hands. D.She is free from financial worries.

Passage 4 (记叙文)
(2023·安徽安庆·安庆一中校考三模)Sagarika Sriram was 10 years old when she started reading newspaper stories about a planet in trouble, one of which was about turtles with plastic in their stomachs. Sagarika knew she needed to do something.

Passage 5(说明文)
(2023·江西·江西师大附中校考三模)Our brains have an “auto-correct” feature that we use when re-interpreting (重新解释) ambiguous sounds, according to new research. The study sheds light on how the brain uses information gathered after the discovering of an initial sound to aid speech comprehension. The findings point to new ways we use information and context to aid in speech comprehension.
“What a person thinks they hear does not always match the actual signals that reach the ear,” explains lead author Laura Gwilliams. “This is because the brain re-evaluates the interpretation of a speech sound at the moment each following speech sound is heard in order to update interpretations as necessary,” Gwilliams says.
It’s well known that the perception of a speech sound is determined by its surrounding context — in the form of words, sentences and other speech sounds. This plays out in everyday life — when we talk, the actual speech we produce is often ambiguous. For example, when a friend says she has a “dent (凹痕)” in her car, you may hear “tent”. Although this kind of ambiguity happens regularly, we, as listeners, are hardly aware of it. “This is because the brain automatically resolves the ambiguity for us — it picks an interpretation and that’s what we perceive to hear,” explains Gwilliams. “The way the brain does this is by using the surrounding context to narrow down the possibilities of what the speaker may mean.”
In the study, the researchers sought to understand how the brain uses this following information to adjust our perception of what we initially heard. To do this, they conducted a series of experiments in which the subjects listened to isolated syllables and similarly sounding words. Their results produced three primary findings: The brain’s primary auditory cortex (听觉皮层) is sensitive to how ambiguous a speech sound is at just 50 milliseconds after the sound’s appearance. The brain “replays” previous speech sounds while interpreting the following ones, suggesting re-evaluation as the rest of the word unfolds. The brain makes commitments to its “best guess” of how to interpret the signal after about half a second.
15.What is the study mainly about?
A.Why people make unclear sounds. B.How brains understand unclear words.
C.How brains tell apart useful information. D.Why some people process information faster.
16.What does the author want to show by giving the example in paragraph 3?
A.It is normal for people to make unclear sounds.
B.People are more likely to mishear their friends.
C.People can understand others even if they mishear a word.
D.People are likely to mistake a word for something familiar.
17.What do we know about the unclear words in the experiments?
A.They seemed to be useless. B.They were noticed instantly.
C.They led to misunderstanding. D.They stopped us thinking further.
18.What does the underlined part “the signal” in the last paragraph refer to?
A.The previous speech sound. B.The similarly sounding word.
C.The unclearly sounding word. D.The following speech sound.
【篇章解读】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了根据一项新研究,我们的大脑在重新解释模棱两可的声音时会使用一种“自动纠正”功能。文章介绍了研究开展的过程以及发现。
15.【答案】B
【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段“Our brains have an “auto-correct” feature that we use when re-interpreting (重新解释) ambiguous sounds, according to new research. The study sheds light on how the brain uses information gathered after the discovering of an initial sound to aid speech comprehension. (根据一项新研究,我们的大脑在重新解释模棱两可的声音时会使用一种“自动纠正”功能。这项研究揭示了大脑是如何利用发现一个初始声音后收集的信息来帮助理解语言的)”可知,这项研究的主要内容是大脑如何理解不清晰的词语。故选B。
16.【答案】C
【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段“It’s well known that the perception of a speech sound is determined by its surrounding context — in the form of words, sentences and other speech sounds. This plays out in everyday life — when we talk, the actual speech we produce is often ambiguous. For example, when a friend says she has a “dent (凹痕)” in her car, you may hear “tent”.

17.【答案】B
【解析】细节理解题。根据最后一段“Their results produced three primary findings: The brain’s primary auditory cortex (听觉皮层) is sensitive to how ambiguous a speech sound is at just 50 milliseconds after the sound’s appearance.

18.【答案】C
【解析】词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Their results produced three primary findings: The brain’s primary auditory cortex (听觉皮层) is sensitive to how ambiguous a speech sound is at just 50 milliseconds after the sound’s appearance. The brain “replays” previous speech sounds while interpreting the following ones, suggesting re-evaluation as the rest of the word unfolds.”可知,他们的研究结果产生了三个主要发现:大脑的初级听觉皮层在声音出现50毫秒后就对语音的模糊程度很敏感。大脑在解释接下来的声音时“重播”之前的声音,暗示随着单词的展开重新评估。大脑会在半秒后做出“最佳猜测”来解释发音不清楚的单词。故划线词意思“发音不清楚的单词”。故选C。
Passage 6(说明文)
(2023·河南省直辖县级单位·济源高中统考二模)Around 3,000 school-based health centers operate in more than 30 states all around the U.S. offering primary and preventive care for students who live in medically underserved areas. Starting at the centers that treat flu, asthma, diabetes and other common illnesses, they provide vaccinations (疫苗接种) and screen for dental, vision and hearing problems, and some provide mental health care. These clinics bring services to children who need them most and who have the greatest risk of falling behind in school because their health needs go unmet.
The pandemic was hard on existing school-based health centers, and it’s time for government at all levels, to recognize that all children need accessible and affordable health care. As lawmakers draw up budgets, reallocate (重新分配) funds and begin a new school year, existing clinics should be able to operate without budgetary fears, more dollars should go to school-based clinics, and more community partners should participate financially and physically in efforts to bring health care to the kids who lack it.
Yet most school communities that could desperately use such clinics lack them. In 2021 $5 million was appropriated (拨专款) to support new and expanded services at school-based health centers. That money funded 25 facilities only—yet the program got more than 2,000 applications. And fewer than half of U.S. states currently fund school health centers. Although the clinics can also bill Medicaid (医疗补助制度) and insurance for students who have coverage, they need stable funding for operating expenses, including hiring well-trained staff.
Many existing centers had to close temporarily or permanently during the pandemic for lack of funding. One bright spot is that more than 60 percent of the centers began offering telehealth services, broadening their reach. Getting kids the care they need where they need it has always made sense, and it`s more urgent than ever. The time is right to expand school-based health centers to all underserved students.
19.What does the first paragraph mainly talk about?
A.The role of school-based clinics. B.The common school-age illnesses.
C.The number of school-based clinics. D.The medical service in underserved areas.

【篇章解读】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了在当前情况下,美国医疗服务不足地区的学校急需要建设学校医疗中心。
19.【答案】A
【解析】段落大意题。根据第一段第一句中的“offering primary and preventive care for students(为学生提供初级和预防性保健)”、第二句中的“they provide vaccinations(疫苗接种) and screen for dental, vision and hearing problems, and some provide mental health care(他们提供疫苗接种和牙科、视力和听力问题筛查,有些还提供心理健康护理)”和第三句中的“These clinics bring services to children(这些诊所向儿童提供服务)”等信息可知,本段主要讲述了学校医疗中心所起的作用。故选A。
20.【答案】D
【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“As lawmakers draw up budgets, reallocate (重新分配) funds and begin a new school year, existing clinics should be able to operate without budgetary fears, more dollars should go to school-based clinics, and more community partners should participate financially and physically in efforts to bring health care to the kids who lack it.(随着立法者起草预算,重新分配资金并开始新学年,现有的诊所应该能够在没有预算担忧的情况下运作,更多的钱应该用于学校诊所,更多的社区伙伴应该在经济和物质上参与努力,为缺乏医疗保健的孩子带来医疗保健)”可知,本段建议政府要在财政上支持校内医疗中心。故选D。
21.【答案】B
【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段中的“In 2021 $5 million was appropriated (拨专款) to support new and expanded services at school-based health centers. That money funded 25 facilities only—yet the program got more than 2,000 applications. (2021年,拨款500万美元用于支持学校医疗中心的新服务和扩展服务。这笔钱只资助了25个设施,但该项目却收到了2 000多份申请)”可知,500万美元的拨款不足以满足2000多个建立学校医疗中心的申请,由此可知,钱远远不够。故选B。
22.【答案】A
【解析】主旨大意题。通读全文可知,第一段介绍了学校医疗中心的作用,第二、三段介绍了学校医疗中心的现状,最后一段提出呼吁“The time is right to expand school-based health centers to all underserved students.(现在正是将学校医疗中心扩大到所有医疗服务不足的学生的时候)”由此可知,本篇文章旨在强调扩建学校医疗中心的紧迫性。所以A项“我们需要在学校设立更多的健康诊所”为最佳标题。故选A。
