课下作业（二） 高考语篇提能练

(2024·石家庄模拟)Ireland's Achill Island has always been a popular European tourist destination. However, since April in 2017, the small island of just 2,700 residents (居民) has gained worldwide fame thanks to the magical return of a beach that was washed away over three decades ago.
The chain of events began in 1984 when residents of Dooagh, one of the settlements on the island, awoke to a surprising sight: their beautiful sandy beach had been washed away by strong Atlantic storms. There were only rocks and rock pools left. For about 34 years, only small amounts of sand returned to the once unspoiled shores. The area's tourism industry slowly declined, and the handful of beachside hotels, pubs, and restaurants gradually closed as well.
Then around Easter in 2017, something magical happened — an unusual ten-day tide blanketed the barren 300-meter long rock beach with hundreds of tons of soft golden sand. Scientists suspect that the sand had been gathering offshore for months and was transported to the beach by the high winds and powerful waves.
The locals are delighted to have their beach back, especially as it is attracting thousands of visitors wishing to witness the power of nature, with their own eyes. However, Sean Molloy, manager at Achill Tourism, cautions against going into the cold waters just yet, saying, “Because of the sand coming in, we don't know how safe the beach is now because currents (水流) could be changed and it'll take a little bit of time.” He instead recommends visitors enjoy the soft sand and leave the swimming to the dolphins that frequent the area.
Interestingly, this is not the first time Dooagh Beach has pulled a disappearing and reappearing act. It disappeared in the 1890s, for over 30 years, before returning in 1927. However, the locals are optimistic that this time around, the beautiful sand is here to stay.
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了爱尔兰Achill岛消失的海滩时隔三十多年再次出现的事件。
1．What has brought Achill Island worldwide attention recently? A．An unusual storm.
B．The decrease in the number of residents. C．The return of its beach.
D．The building of a new tourist destination.
解析：选C 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“However, since April in 2017, the small island of just 2,700 residents (居民) has gained worldwide fame thanks to the magical return of a beach that was washed away over three decades ago.”可知，消失了三十多年的海滩的回归使得Achill岛引起了全世界的关注。
2．What happened to Dooagh in the past three decades? A．Tourism went down gradually. B．Restaurants developed slowly. C．Storms attacked frequently. D．Rock pools disappeared completely.
解析：选A 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“The area's tourism industry slowly declined ...”可知，随着海滩的消失，在过去三十多年里Dooagh地区的旅游业逐渐衰落。
3．What does the underlined word “barren” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Noisy. C．Bare.
B．Soft. D．Golden.
解析：选C 词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的“ten-day tide blanketed the barren 300-meter long rock beach with hundreds of tons of soft golden sand”可知，由于潮水的力量，300米长的岩石海滩被松软的金沙覆盖了。画线词修饰岩石海滩，结合文章内容可知，海滩消失之后，三十多年来岩石海滩表面什么都没有，所以画线词与bare同义，意为“空的，荒芜的”。
4．What should tourists avoid according to Sean Molloy? A．Spoiling the shores. B．Getting into the rock pools. C．Playing with dolphins. D．Swimming near the beach.
解析：选D 推理判断题。根据第四段最后一句“He instead recommends visitors enjoy the soft sand and leave the swimming to the dolphins that frequent the area.”可知，Sean Molloy建议游客享受松软的沙子，把游泳让给海豚，即他建议游客不要在海滩附近游泳。

(2024·南宁联考)It used to be one of the world's most splendid train stations, sitting on the French-Spanish border — but then it fell into disrepair. Now, writes Chris Bockman, the building is showing new signs of life.
The train station was built in iron and glass, complete with a hospital, a restaurant and living quarters for customs officers from both France and Spain. At the time it was nicknamed the “Titanic of the Mountains”．
But after the day the station was opened in 1928 by the French president and the Spanish king, flaws quickly became obvious. The rail gauges (轨距) were different, so passengers still had to change trains. It made transporting goods too slow. In the early 1930s, as few as 50 passengers a day were using the station. And then things got worse. During the Spanish Civil War, the tunnels on the Spanish side were sealed off to prevent Republican rebels (反叛者) from bringing weapons in. Later, the French lost interest in the line. When a train derailed on the French side in 1970, that signaled that France abandoned the line.
The grand building itself went to rot. The tracks rusted, the ceilings fell in with the severe winter weather and vandalism (故意破坏财物的行为) did the rest.
But a few years ago the local government in Aragon decided to buy the place and restore it, claiming it was a major part of Spanish history. The French government has agreed to reopen the line on its side too. If all goes to plan, the “Titanic of the Mountains” could be back in business within five years before the end of 2024. It is reported that the massive wooden ticket counters at the station have already been restored.
语篇解读：本文讲述了法国和西班牙边境的一座火车站的历史变迁。
5．The following factors contributed to the shutdown of the train station EXCEPT ________. A．its poor appearance C．the Spanish Civil War
B．different gauges D．slow transporting speed
解析：选A 细节理解题。根据第三段内容可知，B、C、D都是造成火车站关闭的原因，而A项未提及。故选A。
6．When the train station reopens, it may celebrate its ______ anniversary. A．52nd C．94th
B．72nd D．89th
解析：选C 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“But after the day the station was opened in 1928”和最后一段中的“If all goes to plan, the ‘Titanic of the Mountains’ could be back in business within five years before the end of 2024.”可以计算出：2024－1928＝94(年)，当其恢复使用时可以庆祝其94周年纪念日，所以选C。
7．What will probably happen to the train station? A．It will be repaired.
B．It will be turned into a museum. C．It will be knocked down.
D．It will be sold to the French government.
解析：选A 推理判断题。根据最后一段首句“But a few years ago the local government in
