2023高考英语新高考II卷阅读理解D篇全考点解析附译文[名校内部资料]

D

As cities balloon with growth, access to nature for people

living in urban areas is becoming harder to find. If you’re lucky,

there might be a pocket park near where you live, but it’s

unusual to find places in a city that are relatively wild.

Past research has found health and wellness benefits of

nature for humans, but a new study shows that wildness in urban

areas is extremely important for human well-being.

The research team focused on a large urban park. They

surveyed several hundred park-goers, asking them to submit a

written summary online of a meaningful interaction they had

with nature in the park. The researchers then examined these

submissions, coding (编码) experiences into different categories.

For example, one participant's experience of “We sat and

listened to the waves at the beach for a while” was assigned the

categories “sitting at beach” and “listening to waves.”

Across the 320 submissions, a pattern of categories the

researchers call a “nature language” began to emerge. After the

coding of all submissions, half a dozen categories were noted

most often as important to visitors. These include encountering

wildlife, walking along the edge of water, and following an

established trail.

Naming each nature experience creates a usable language,

which helps people recognize and take part in the activities that

are most satisfying and meaningful to them. For example, the

experience of walking along the edge of water might be

satisfying for a young professional on a weekend hike in the park.

Back downtown during a workday, they can enjoy a more

domestic form of this interaction by walking along a fountain on

their lunch break.

“We're trying to generate a language that helps bring the

human-nature interactions back into our daily lives. And for that

to happen, we also need to protect nature so that we can

interact with it,” said Peter Kahn, a senior author of the study.

32. What phenomenon does the author describe at the

beginning of the text?

A. Pocket parks are now popular.

B. Wild nature is hard to find in cities.

B. Young people are too busy to interact with nature.

C. The same nature experience takes different forms.

D. The nature language enhances work performance.

35. What should be done before we can interact with nature

according to Kahn?

A. Language study.

参考答案：BDCB

文章主旨：

本文是一篇说明文。随着城市的飞速发展，生活在城市地区的人们越来越难以接近大自然。一项新的研究表明，城市地区的野生环境对人类的福祉极其重要。研究人员也正试图创造一种语言，帮助将人类与自然的互动带回我们的日常生活中。

答案详解：

32.B。事实细节题。根据题干中at the beginning of the text可以把关键信息定位到文章第一段，As cities balloon with growth, access

to nature for people living in urban areas is becoming harder to

find.随着城市的飞速发展，生活在城市地区的人们越来越难以接近大自然。If you’re lucky, there might be a pocket park near where you

live, but it's unusual to find places in a city that are relatively wild.如果你幸运的话，你住的地方附近可能会有一个袖珍公园，但在城市里找到相对野生的地方是不寻常的。B. Wild nature is hard to find in

cities.在城市里很难找到野生的自然。因此应选B。

其它选项含义：A. Pocket parks are now popular. 袖珍公园现在很流行。 cities are overpopulated. 许多城市人口过剩。D. People

enjoy living close to nature.人们喜欢亲近自然的生活。

33.D。推理判断题。根据题干中submissions into categories等字眼，可以把关键信息定位在第四段第一句Across the 320 submissions, a

pattern of categories the researchers call a “nature language”

began to emerge.在这320份提交的作品中，一种被研究人员称为“自然语言”的分类模式开始出现。第二句After the coding of all

submissions, half a dozen categories were noted most often as

important to visitors.在对所有提交的内容进行编码后，有六个类别被认为对访问者最重要。

由此可知，研究人员对参与者提交的作品编码分类是为了总结出人与自然互动的模式，D. To find patterns in the visitors’summaries.在访客总结中寻找模式。因此应选D。

其它选项含义：A. To compare different types of park-goers.比较不同类型的公园游客。B. To explain why the park attracts tourists.解释为什么公园吸引游客。C. To analyze the main features of the

park.分析公园的主要特征。

34.C。推理判断题。由题干中的the example given in paragraph 5可以把关键信息定位到第五段，For example, the experience of

walking along the edge of water might be satisfying for a young

professional on a weekend hike in the park.例如，沿着水边散步的经历可能会让一个年轻的专业人士在周末去公园徒步旅行时感到满意。

Back downtown during a workday, they can enjoy a more

domestic form of this interaction by walking along a fountain on

their lunch break.在工作日回到市中心，他们可以在午休时沿着喷泉散步，享受一种更家庭的互动方式。

由此可知，同样是散步，在周末和在工作日，可以采取不同的方式。C.

The same nature experience takes different forms.同样的自然体验有不同的形式。因此应选C。

其它选项含义：A. Walking is the best way to gain access to nature.散步是亲近大自然的最好方式。B. Young people are too busy to

参考译文：

随着城市的飞速发展，生活在城市地区的人们越来越难以接近大自然。如果你幸运的话，你住的地方附近可能会有一个袖珍公园，但在城市里找到相对野生的地方是不寻常的。

过去的研究发现，自然对人类的健康有益，但一项新的研究表明，城市地区的野生环境对人类的福祉极其重要。

研究小组把重点放在一个大型城市公园上。他们调查了数百名公园游客，要求他们在网上提交一份书面总结，描述他们在公园里与大自然

有意义的互动。然后，研究人员检查了这些提交的信息，将体验分成不同的类别。例如，一个参与者的“我们坐在沙滩上听了一会儿海浪”的经历被分配到“坐在沙滩上”和“听海浪”的类别。

在这320份提交的作品中，一种被研究人员称为“自然语言”的分类模式开始出现。在对所有提交的内容进行编码后，有六个类别被认为对访问者最重要。这些活动包括遇到野生动物，沿着水边散步，沿着一条既定的小路走。

命名每一种自然体验创造了一种可用的语言，这有助于人们认识并参与到对他们来说最满意和最有意义的活动中。例如，沿着水边散步的经历可能会让一个年轻的专业人士在周末去公园徒步旅行时感到满意。在工作日回到市中心，他们可以在午休时沿着喷泉散步，享受一种更家庭的互动方式。

“我们正试图创造一种语言，帮助将人类与自然的互动带回我们的日常生活中。要做到这一点，我们还需要保护自然，这样我们才能与它互动，”该研究的资深作者彼得·卡恩说。
