新高考高一英语时文阅读专版特训（含中文翻译及答案解析）ALaila Anderson was just nine years old when hospital visits became a part of her everydaylife. She would regularly get headaches, vomit and become unresponsive. One day, she collapsed while getting out of the car. After 16 months of testing and two misdiagnoses, Anderson learned she had Isolated Central Nervous System HLH, an extremely rare autoimmune disease that results in her body making too many immune cells. Those immune cells were attacking her brain. According to Jeff Bednarski, MD, PhD, a Washington University hematologist (血液学家) at St. Louis Children’s Hospital, Laila is just one of 15 children in the world who have demonstrated neurologic symptoms of the disease, which made it even more challenging to pinpoint a diagnosis.On October 16th, 2018, a central line was put in her chest, and she began chemotherapy (化疗). She needed 10 weeks of chemotherapy to prepare for her only hope for a cure: a bone marrow transplant. Then, all they could do was wait for a match.Only three months later, Felmlee received a call from Be The Match; he was the best matchfor a 10-year-old girl. That was all he knew about her at the time. Nearly 300 miles away in Lawrence, Kansas, 18-year-old Kenton Felmlee joined the registry after hearing his teacher speaking about her own experience as a donor during class. When asked if he was still willing to donate, it was no decision. He immediately said yes.January 24th became Anderson’s “new birthday”once Felmlee's bone marrow was transplanted in her. After the transplant, she spent one month in isolation to prevent infection. Several months later, Anderson rang the bell signaling the end of treatment. “Now I am like any other kid. I'm a sixth grader. I go to school five days a week. I have blood work once a month just to see how my counts are, how my bone marrow was accepting,”says Anderson.Prior to deciding to meet in person, Felmlee and Anderson’s family exchanged letters. Even though they didn't know each other yet, they already felt bonded.1.What’s the real reason that made LailaAnderson often go to hospital?A. Her headaches.B. Her vomiting.C. Her collapses.D. Her disease.2. Why was it difficult for doctors to give Laila Anderson a right diagnosis at first?A. Because Laila Anderson was too young to diagnose.B. Because the family didn't take her to hospital in time.C. Because there were another 15 children to be diagnosed.D. Because the symptoms of her disease didn't seem obvious.3. Who inspired Felmlee to donate a bone marrow to others?A. His parents.B. His classmates.C. His teacher.D.Anderson.4. What will probably happen next between Felmlee and Laila?A. They will meet each other in person.B. They will keep exchanging letters.C. They will live together afterwards.D.

India’s economy has become overdependent on its neighbor for imports of vital materials used to produce medicine, autos and electronics. India’s pharmaceutical (制药的) sector currently imports 80% of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients, essential raw materials required for the manufacture of medicines. Apart from the price hike, India’s pharmaceutical companies are also dealing with a decline to less than three months worth of inventory of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients that are needed for treating cases of the coronavirus in India. The government has taken the precautionary (预防的) measure of restricting the export of certain drugs. While India currently produces 20% of the world’s supply of drugs, it is the world’s biggest exporter of generic drugs (非专利药), sending a huge number of medicines to countries including the U.S. Hence. In the forthcoming months, these restrictions could translate into a major global supply chain problem for the pharmaceutical sector.Due to a shortage of vehicle parts, auto production in India is forecast to shrink by 8.3%. Moreover, India’s government has issued a travel advisory and temporarily stopped e-visafacilities to stop the virus from spreading across the country. This has prevented managers from car companies from attending Asia’s biggest motor show, the Auto Expo 2020 held in New Delhi, India.India’s smartphone leader Xiaomi raised the price of its smartphone and its spokesperson said,“The extended shutdown in China is likely to have an impact on our supply chain. While we are working to explore alternative supply channels for components and raw materials, the immediate impact is that the short supply might cause some negative pressure on the prices of these components. This has led to an increase in the price of the product temporarily.”Apart from these import-dependent sectors, the Indian tourism industry is also expected to witness a negative impact.1. Which of the following is NOT covered by this passage?A. The growth of economy.B. The crisis of auto market.C. The cost of mobile phones.D. The measure for drug exports.2. What can we learn from India’s pharmaceutical sector?A. India currently encourages the export of drugs to the world.B. India’s pharmaceutical raw materials are completely imported.C. India’s measures may cause problems in the global supply chain.D. India’s new coronavirus drug can last for more than three months.3. Why did the price of smartphones in India rise according to Para. 4?A. Because they found other sources of supply.B. Because the price of raw materials went up.C. Because they put money into research work.D. Because the government put pressure on them.4. What will the next paragraph most probably talk about?A. Tourism growth.B. Tourism situation.C. Tourism exploration.D. Tourism opportunity.DFive Things Androids Do That iPhones Can’tAndroids and iPhones have lots in common—but there are some things onlyAndroids do. Download apps outside of the vetted①environmentOne of the best things about smartphones is that they can house lots of different apps thathelp you navigate, listen to music, and buy things in an instant. You can download these apps on Android phones through Google Play or on the iPhone through the App Store. According to Lance Ulanoff, the Editor in Chief of Lifewire, the biggest difference between iPhone or iOS and Android when it comes to apps is the ability to download them from outside of the vetted environment. Android users can download apps right from websites. Meanwhile, on an iPhone, it’s the App Store or nothing, he says. According to Apple, the option to download apps without going through the App Store is unavailable to protect users from Malware ②. That’s also why a Google spokesperson says they recommend downloading apps from Google Play.Charge with a micro USB-C cableDepending on the specific device, Android phones can use a standard USB-C cable to transfer data and charge. “These cables are ubiquitous③, so grabbing a spare or replacing a broken cable is simple and inexpensive,”Andrew Moore-Crispin, the Director of Content at Ting Mobile says. Apple’s Lightning cable, however, is an official cable that will set you back more than acomparable USB-C, Moore-Crispin says. Although these cable wires clearly look different, you might not recognize these hidden iPhone hacks you never knew about.Have multiple user profilesAndroid phones let you have more than one active user account per phone. So you can choose an account to log in from the lock screen. “This is handy if you want to let the kids use your phone, but you don’t want them messing any of your stuff up,”Moore-Crispin says. iPhones don’t support multiple user profiles and have FaceID and TouchID to prevent anyone but you from using your device. If hackers are a concern, do these 5 things to keep your phone secure and safe. Listen with a 3.5 mm headphone jackApple did away with the 3.5 mm headphone jack in 2016 with the iPhone 7, according toMore-Crispin. Now, iPhone users need a Lightning connector, an adapter, or wirelessAirPods.“Some Android phones have followed suit④,”More-Crispin says. “Still, the fact remains that if you want a phone with the once-ubiquitous headphone connector, Android is the only place you’ll find it.”Customize more defaultsAndroids let you set up third-party apps as your default option. This adds yet another layer of customization, and another thing on the list of Android hacks you never knew about. “iPhone operates a ‘walled garden’model where users can’t really step outside the bounds and accidentally get themselves in trouble,”Moore-Crispin says. “Android is far from the wild frontier, but it does let users take a lot more control.”You can customize your home screen with widgets⑤that show info at a glance like weather, your calendar, or news headlines, according to a Google spokesperson. These options let you control the look and feel of the operating system with the help of themes or launchers. Apple is catching up, however, and with iOS 12 and later you have the choice to delete more built-in apps from your iPhone than before.EWednesday is Census Day, when the U.S. Census Bureau wants the nation to respond to the2020 census, either online, by phone or by mail, telling the bureau where they live and other information about themselves and their families.But this Census Day comes with a new reality because of the coronavirus pandemic (新冠疫情), forcing the bureau, and its many “partners”around the country, to make adjustments. The bureau has delayed field work from April 1 to April 15, and has turned to collecting information from some facilities. Meanwhile, local groups and governments seeking to promote 2020 census participation have turned to online communication instead of public gatherings.Jeff Behler, the bureau’s New York regional director, said in an interview Tuesday that the delayed field work involved two operations: sending census workers to remote areas and to tribal lands to conduct the actual census. The other involved going to communities that only use post office boxes.“Self-response”rates to the 2020 census can be tracked on the bureau’s website. New York State’s rate was 31.1% Tuesday, lower than the national rate of 36.2%. Nassau County’s rate was 36.6%, and Suffolk County’s was 33.9%.Behler said while officials would like the response rates to be higher, he noted the“challenges”the coronavirus caused, particularly in New York. “We understand the current environment we’re in.”He praised bureau “partners”that came up with creative ways to involve the public. One such partner, Rebecca Sanin, president and chief executive of the Health and Welfare Councilof Long Island, said although the virus caused much trouble, the local government is “still organizing 11 meetings remotely”. Sanin said, “April 1 being Census Day, in my opinion, it’s a call to take action for our neighbors on Long Island as completing the 2020 census will impact funding for Long Island for the next 10 years. And Long Island needs it in order to recover from the coronavirus crisis.”1. During Census Day, all the nation should ________.A. mail the Census Bureau for 2020 censusB. call their families for personal informationC. respond to their families by phone or emailD. provide required information for the Bureau2. What adjustments does the government make during the coronavirus pandemic?A. Promoting the 2020 census participation.B. Turning to online communication for help.C. Continuing the field work as planned before.D. Collecting the information only from individuals.3. Which of the following statement will Behler agree with?A. Officials must create new ways to involve the public.B. New York hasn’t been influenced by the coronavirus.C. Some local governments performed well in the census.D. The census response rates have been higher than predicted.4. What does the underlined word “it”in the last paragraph refer to?A. Funding.B. Long Island.C. Census.D. Dollars.A【答案】1-4 DDCA【解析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了一个美国小女孩Laila Anderson 接受骨髓移植，身体康复的故事。
