Here are some tips for you.Before you start to listen, you need to relax. Don't be stressed out. And try to read the questions. These questions usually help you understand the conversation or the passage.Then listen carefully to the first sentence. It usually tells you the main idea of the passage. When you're listening, try to do some thinking and take some notes, such as:☆What happened?☆When, where, and how?☆What does the speaker want to tell us?In this way, you may understand the passage better.Please remember not to think about one or two words for a long time. When you hear some words you don't know, don't spend too much time on them. Very often, you'll find out what they mean later when you go on with the listening.1.This passage mainly talks about _____.A.tips on listeningB.tips on speakingC.tips on readingD.tips on writing2.It's better for you to keep _____ when you start to have a listening test.A.excitedB.relaxedC.stressed outD.worried3.We should listen to the first sentence carefully, because it usually tell us _____.A.the answers to the questionsB.where to write the answersC.the main idea of the passageD.how much time left (剩余的) for the listening test4.When you're listening, it's important for you to _____.A.remember every wordB.take some notesC.understand all the wordsD.think about one or two words for a long time5.They _____ usually help(s) us understand the passage better.A.questionsB.first sentenceC.notesD.A, B and C答案：ABCBD（三）How do you study each day? You may answer it in one second: have classes at school, take notes and do homework. Feeling a little bored? There are other ways that can make learning interesting and diverse (多样的). It's called digital learning.Digital learning is a way to help students learn by using the Internet. There are three important kinds of digital learning. Apps are computer software applications. People can download them on their mobile devices. The other two kinds are social networking services, including Weibo and Wechat websites. Everyone of them is like your teacher. They help you master what you learn at school.(四）Compared with regular learning ways, digital learning has its advantages. Digital learning is also diverse. It covers almost every school subject. Moreimportantly, it's always updating (更新), which offers students the newest resources to learn from. Digital learning is also personalized (个性化的). You can choose what you like to learn. If you don't master what you have learned at school, you can learn again through digital ways.However, digital learning also has disadvantages. When you use digital ways to learn, you seldom communicate with teachers and classmates. As digital learning uses computers or smart phones, watching the screen too long may be bad for your eyes. It is better to take a rest every 20 minutes.1.How do students usually study every day?2.What is digital learning according to the passage?3.Is digital learning always good for us?4.How many advantages of digital learning are mentioned in the passage?5.How often should you take a rest when you use computers to learn?答案：1.They usually have classes at school, take notes and do homework. / By having classes at school, taking notes and doing homework.2.A way to help students learn by using the Internet.3.No, it isn't.4.Three.5.Every 20 minutes.（五）Homework is a problem for students all over the world. As a student, you have a lot of homework to do every day. It's a major part of a student's schoolday. It's the best way to review what you have learned in class. And it helps you understand important concepts (概念). Luckily, there are several things you can do to make homework less difficult.Be sure you understand the homeworkWrite your homework down in your notebook if you need to. Don't be afraid to ask questions about it. It's much easier to ask the teacher during or after class than to try to remember later that night!Use your time at schoolMany schools have study hall. It is designed to allow students to study on their own. It's more interesting to play with your friends. But the more homework you finish at school, the less you'll have to do that night.Take a breakIt's difficult to hold your attention for too long. So take some breaks while doing your homework. Sitting for too long without relaxing will make you feel very tired. Taking a 15-minute break every hour is a good idea for most people. Make a planIf you don't finish your homework at school, think about how much you have left, so you can budget your time. Most students have between 1 hour and 3 hours of homework a night. If it's a heavy homework day, you'll need to spend more time on it. It's a good idea to make a homework timetable, especially when you want to enjoy sports or other activities.1.The first paragraph is mainly about _____.A.why homework is hard to doB.why students should do homeworkC.how much homework students should doD.when students should do homework2.You should do the following things EXCEPT _____·A.writing your homework down in your notebookB.trying to finish your homework at schoolC.doing homework without taking a breakD.making a plan for your homework3.The underlined word "budget" in the passage means "_____".A.planB. saveC.wasteD.kill4.The writer advises students to _____ if the homework is heavy.A.do less homework at nightB.do other activities firstC.take a break and do some choresD.make a homework timetable5.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Too much homework means too much pressureB.Students should learn to relaxC.Ways to make homework easierD.Problems students meet when doing homework答案：BCADC（六）Students learn their lessons in class. They sit in the classroom listening to their teachers. This is a way of learning. Is this the only way for students to learn? Of course not. There is another way to learn. Students can teach themselves. For example, if you can't remember something when you are doing your homework, what will you do? You can look at your book to find the answer.How to teach yourself? The first thing you must do is reading. Read something you are interested in, or that you have to read. The second is that you must ask yourself questions.A clever student is usually good at asking questions. The third is to answer the questions yourself by working hard, by reading books and sometimes by asking other people. These are the ways of teaching yourself. If you keep doing like these for a long time, you are sure to have great progress in your study.1.Students usually sit in the classroom _____ their teachers.A.listening toB.Looking atC.talking to2.If you can't remember something when you are doing your homework, you can look at _____ to find the answer.A.your bookB.your magazineC.your newspaper3.From the passage, we know a clever student is usually good at _____.A.telling storiesB.asking questionsC.playing volleyball4.If you want to teach yourself, you must learn to _____ first.A.writeB.speakC.read5.How many ways of teaching yourself are mentioned (提到) in the passage?A.Two.B.Three.C.Four.答案：AABCB（七）What homework did you do in the winter holiday?

高考英语阅读理解试题40篇2011.02一、自测题：Text 1After a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day.There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (Although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion the counting sheep will put you to sleep!1 A good title for this passage is ____.A. Sleep C.

With a TV set in the fa mily people don’t have to pay for expensive seats at the theatre, the cinema, or the opera .All they have to so is to push a button or turn a knob, and they can see plays, films, operas and shows of every kind. Some people, however, think that this is where the danger lies. The television viewers need do nothing. He does not even have to use his legs if the has a remote control. He makes no choice and exercises, no judgment. He is completely passive and has everything presented to him without any effort in his part.Television, it is often said, keeps one informed about current events and the latest developments in science and politics. The most distant countries and the strangest customs are brought right into one’s sitting room. It could be argued that the radio performs this service as well; but on television everything is much more living, much more real. Yet here again there is a danger. Thetelevision screen itself has a terrible, almost physical charm for us. We get so used to looking at the movements on it ,so dependent on its pictures, that it begins to control our lives. People are often heard to say that their television sets have broken down and that they have suddenly found that they have far more time to do things and the they have actually begin to talk to each other again. It makes one think, doesn’t it?There are many other arguments for and against television. We must realize that television itself is neither good nor bad. It is the uses that it is put to that determine its value to society.6. What is the major of paragraph 1?A. To arouse the reader’s concernB. To introduce the theme of the whole passageC. To summarize the whole passageD. To sate the primary uses of TV7. Television, as a source of entertainment, is ______.A. not very convenientB. very expensiveC. quite dangerousD. relatively cheap8.

According to the passage, whether TV is good or not depends on _______ .A. its qualityB. people ’s attitude towards itC. how we use itD. when we use itText 3Too often young people get themselves employed quite by accident, not knowing what lies in the way of opportunity for promotion, happiness and security. As a result, they are employed doing jobs that afford them little or no satisfaction. Our school leavers face so much competition that they seldom care what they do as long as they can earn a living . Some stay long at a job and learn to like it ;others quite from one to another looking for something to suit them, the young graduates who leave the university look for jobs that offer a salary up to their expectation. Very few go out into the world knowing exactly what they want and realizing their own abilities. The reason behind all this confusion is that there never has been a proper vocational guidance in our educational institution. Nearly all grope(摸索) in the dark and their chief concern when they look for a job is to ask what salary is like. They never bother to think whether they are suited for the job or, even more important, whether the job suits them, Having a job is more than merely providing yourself and your dependants with daily bread and some money for leisure and entertainment, It sets a pattern of life and, in many ways, determines social status in life, selection of friends, leisure and interest.In choosing a career you should first consider the type of work which will suit your interest .Noting is more pathetic than taking on a job in which you have no interest, for it will not only discourage your desire to succeed in life but also ruin your talents and ultimately make you an emotional wreck (受到严重伤害的人)and a bitter person.11. The reason why some people are unlikely to succeed in life is that they _____ .A. have ruined their talentsB. have taken on an unsuitable jobC. think of nothing but their salaryD. are not aware of their own potential12. The difficulty in choosing a suitable job lies mainly in that_____ .A. much competition has to be facedB. many employees have no working experienceC. the young people only care about how much they can earnD. schools fail to offer students appropriate vocational guidance13. Which of the following statements is most important according to the passage?A. Your job must suit your interest.B. Your job must set a pattern of life.C. Your job must offer you a high salary.D. Your job must not ruin your talents.14.The best title for this passage would be ____.A. What Can A Good Job OfferB. Earning A LivingC. Correct Attitude On Job-huntingD. How To Choose A Job15. The word “pathetic”in paragraph 2 most probably means ____ .A. splendidB. miserableC. disgustedD. touching1.A 文章的第一段谈到睡眠能使身体健康，第二段、第三段谈到睡眠的几种状态，最后一段谈到很快入睡的几种方法。

八年级英语上册阅读理解10篇人教版(含答案)

人教版八年级英语上册阅读理解10篇（一）If you see someone fall onto the ground because of a heart problem, what will you do before doctors come? Chen Wenqiao set a good example when he was 14. He did CPR (心肺复苏) in his school and saved a man's life in 2013. Chen showed that it was quite useful to know how to do CPR.According to medical experts, there is a "golden period(黄金期)"—the first 4 minutes of a heart problem. During the time, CPR makes the biggest difference. Unluckily, only less than I percent of Chinese adults have known the skill of CPR, while many even have never heard of it. On August 24 of 2020, the Ministry of ERCSC made a joint guideline (联合指示) to ask all public schools to give first-aid(急救) courses, including (包括)CPR training.CPR is not hard to learn. All that one needs to do is how to watch and decide if a person is unconscious (失去知觉的), where to press on the patient's chest, and how to blow air through the mouth and into the lungs(肺).A 2017 study showed that 65 percent of Americans had received CPR training. In Switzerland, all people are asked to be trained in first aid, including CPR: tn Germany, everyone must be trained before getting their driver's license, which means about 80 percent of the country has received first-aid training. Forty percent of people in France are also trained in first aid.（）1. About CPR, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. It is very difficult to learn.B. It is the most important first-aid.C. ht plays the biggest role during the first four minutes of a heart problem.（）2.What should we do when we are doing the CPR?①take a course ① blow air through the mouth and into the heart①press on the chest①find out if the person is unconsciousA.①①①B.①①①C.①①①（）3.

To show us the popularity (普及) of CPR.C.To ask us to help people with a heart attack（二）Fish and chips, and Chinese take-away food(熟食) are very popular in England. But they are less popular(不受欢迎) in the USA. In the USA, they eat take-away food, too, like fried(油炸的) chicken. But the most popular kind of take-away food is hamburger. It looks like bread with meat in it. Hamburgers are delicious. They are very popular in the world.Chinese food has different tastes and is usually very delicious. It's also very popular in the world.（）1.What's the favourite food in the USA?A.Hamburger.B. Fish and chips.C. Fried chicken.（）2.What does hamburger look like?A.It looks like a mooncake.B.

Jim was very proud of two things. One was Jim's gold watch from his grandfather. The other was Della's hair. It almost made itself into a dress for her.Della wanted to buy Jim a Christmas gift. The only thing she thought valuable(有价值的) was her hair. She sold it, without thinking twice, for 20 dollars. She was going from one shop to another to find a gift for Jim. She saw a gold watch chain (链条) It was so perfect for his watch! She paid for it unhesitatingly and hurried home with the chain and 87 cents.At seven before the dinner, Jim stepped in and he was not smiling. He looked strangely at Della and said slowly,” You cut off your hair?”"Yes. I sold it for the gift so don’t be sad." Della answered "Oh, my dear, I also bought a gift for you,”Jim took out a paper bag from his coat. "If you open that, you may know how I felt when I came in.”White fingers opened the bag And then a cry of joy. And then a change to tears. For there lay The Comb---the combs that Della had seen in a shop window and loved for a long time.Della took out the gift for Jim. However, Jim smiled and said, "Let's put our Christmas gifts away and keep them a while. They are too nice to use now. I will buy my watch back someday.

An interesting CoupleC.A special Christmas（四）When fishermen throw fishing nets(渔网) into the water, they catch not only different kinds of fishes, but also a lot of seabirds. Here is the reason: seabirds mainly live on fish. When there are fish in the nets, seabirds can smell fish from far away and fly to the nets to catch fish. As a result, they get caught in the nets and then die. These fishing nets kill at least 400,000 seabirds every year. Some seabirds are in great danger now.Scientists know that many seabirds don’t like to see other animals’ eyes. If they do, they will fly away. So they came up with an idea. They designed a floating buoy(浮标) with big eyes and made the eyes large enough so that all seabirds could see the eyes. Also, scientists made the eyes keep moving in the water, so birds coming from different places could see them easily and then flew away. Scientists tested the buoys in the water for 250 hours. The result showed that the eyes made 20%-30% of ducks leave, and some seabirds visited the water less even three weeks after scientists took away the buoys.The test showed success and hope, but scientists found that the eyes didn’t work for all kinds of seabirds. Some were not afraid of the eyes in the first place, and some came back again to fish finally. Scientists hope that they will build better eyes. There is a long way to go to save seabirds, but scientists will keep moving forward.（）1. The first paragraph mainly talks about _______.A. how fishermen fishB. how seabirds get fishC. why seabirds die in fishing nets（）2. Scientists made the eyes keep moving to let _______ see them.A. birds with poor eyesightB. birds from different placesC. fish under water（）3. Which of the following is TRUE?A. All ducks were afraid of the floating buoys with big eyes.B. Less than 400,000 seabirds died in these fishing nets.C. The floating buoys with big eyes worked for some seabirds.（）4. We can infer(推断) from the passage that scientists are _______ the eyes.A. sorry aboutB. hopeful aboutC. worried about（）5. What’s the best title for the passage?A. Are seabirds in danger?B. Why do we save seabirds?C. Can big eyes save seabirds?（五）What does taking the train mean to you? Perhaps it’s just a way of getting to your destination(目的地). In fact, the train itself can be part of the fun.On March 28, 2021, China’s first panda-themed tourist train left Chengdu in Sichuan for Zunyi in Guizhou. It soon became the talk of China with its special design and fun facilities(设施). The train is full of giant panda pictures. Attendants(乘务员) carry panda toys to move around and passengers(乘客) can try panda-shaped food, as well as Sichuan snacks. Some people call it a “mobile star hotel” because it has a bar, karaoke room, dance hall, and mahjong(麻将) room. Passengers can take showers and use its 5G network as well.Besides fun facilities, train travel appeals to people for other reasons. In the fast-paced times we live in, train travel is a good way to slow down. It gives you time and space to read, sleep, chat with friends, or simply do nothing but watch the changing scenery(风景) outside.Sheng Yawei, 26, once took the longest railway in the world — the Trans-Siberian(穿越西伯利亚的) Railway. Running from Moscow to Vladivostok, it takes six days. Sheng said, “It was like a time travel experience. Since the journey covers eight time zones(时区), I saw my watch go back suddenly.” He added, “The rivers, forests, mountains, and deserted countryside along the way made me feel peaceful.” Train travel is also filled with surprises. You might meet new people. Sheng met a Russian college student and they became friends. “I also met a cute boy who gave me melon seeds(瓜子). Though we didn’t understand each other’s language, it made me feel nice. Taking the train is very interesting. You don’t know who you’ll meet or what you’ll see. It’s a window to see the world,” he said.（）1. On the panda-themed train, passengers can NOT _______.A. have Sichuan snacksB. have a dancing partyC. take photos with real giant pandas（）2. People call the panda-themed train a “mobile star hotel” because of _______.A. its fun facilitiesB. its special foodC. its fast speed(速度)（）3. The underlined phrase “appeals to” in Paragraph 3 probably means “_______” in Chinese.A. 挑战B. 吸引C. 排斥（）4. In Sheng Yawei’s opinion, _______ made his travel full of surprises.A. watching the deserted countryside along the wayB. making friends with foreignersC. understanding a different language（）5. What does the passage mainly talk about?A. The panda-themed tourist train.B. Travel experiences.C. Interesting train travels.（六）The next day was also cold and grey. Nobody talked much during breakfast. Mrs March was pale (苍白的) and red. The girls tried to hide their tears.Then Mr Brooke arrived with the carriage(四轮马车) and it was time for Mrs March to leave.She kissed her daughters one by one and said, “Keep busy, my dears, and never lose hope!"“Yes, Mother.""Meg. look after your sisters. If you need help, ask Mr Frence. Jo,be patient and cheerful, and write to me often. Beth and Amy, help with the housework and be obedient (服从的)”“Yes. Mother I Don't worry!"Mrs March got into the carriage and opened the window.“Goodbye, my dears!" she called as it drove away. The girls waved their hands cheerfully until the carriage turned the corner.Then, with sad faces and heavy hearts, they went back inside.“The house seems very empty now," said Meg.“Our motto(座右铭)is“Hope and keep busy'," said Jo brightly. She was trying to forget how sad she was feeling. “So I'm going to go and see Aunt March. What about you,Meg?"“I'm going to teach the Kings' children," replied Meg.“And Amy and I are going to help Hannah with the housework," said Beth.“I think anxiety (焦虑) is very interesting," Amy said seriously. Her remark made her sisters laugh, and they all started to feel a little better.（）1. When did the story happen?A. In the morning.B. In the afternoonC. In the evening.（）2. How many daughters did Mrs March have?A. Three.B. Four.C. Five.（）3. Who was going to help Hannah with the housework?A. Beth.B. Meg.C. Amy and Beth.（）4. What does the underlined word remark mean in Chinese?A.话语B.表情C.态度（）5. According to the story, we can know that_________.A. it was hot and sunny that dayB. the girls felt unhappy when their mother leftC. Mr Brooke worked for Mrs March and her family（七）Almost every Chinese person can recite(背诵)the two lines of the famous poem,"Every grain on the plate comes from hard work." But sadly, many of us don't actually get the real meaning of these lines: Don't waste food.A CCTV program reported that the food Chinese people throw away every year is enough to feed 200 million people for a year. Do we have too much food? Absolutely not.According to the UN World Food Program, there were 925 million hungry people around the world in 2011, especially in developing countries. Six million children die of hunger (饥饿)every year.Chinese people are well-known for being friendly and generous (大方的)。

Unit 14Storms make trees take deeper roots.风暴使树木深深扎根P art ADirections：Read the following texts. Answer the questions blow each text by choosing [A],[B],[C] or [D].T ext 1When Julius Caesar made his triumphal entrance into Rome in 45 BC, he celebrated by giving a feast at which thousands of guests gorged on poultry, seafood and game. Similar celebrations featuring exorbitant consumption of animal flesh have marked human victories — in war, sport, politics and commerce —since our species learned to control fire. Throughout the developing world today, one of the first things people do as they climb out of poverty is to shift from their peasant diet of mainly grains and beans to one that is rich in pork or beef. Since 1950, per capital consumption of meat around the globe has more doubled.Meat, it seems, is not just food but reward as well. But in the coming century, that will change. Much as we have awakened to the full economic and social costs of cigarettes, we will find we can no longer subsidize or ignore the costs of mass-producing cattle, poultry, pigs, sheep and fish to feed our growing population. These costs include hugely inefficient use of fresh water and land, heavy pollution from livestock feces, rising rates of heart disease and other degenerative illness, and spreading destruction of the forests on which much of ou r planet’s life depends.First, consider the impact on supplies of fresh water. To produce 1kg of feedlot beef requires 7 kg of feed grain, which takes 1000 kg of water to grow. Pass up one hamburger, and you’ll save as much as water as you save by taking 40 showers with a low-flow nozzle. Y et in the U.S., 70% of all the wheat, corn and other grain produced goes to feeding herds of livestock. Around the world, as more water is diverted to raising pigs and chickens instead of producing crops for direct consumption, millions of wells are going dry. India, China, North Africa and the U.S. are all running freshwater deficits, pumping more from their aquifers than rain can replenish. As populations in water scarce regions continue to expand, governments will inevitably act to cut these deficits by shifting water to grow food, not feed. The new policies will raise the price of meat to levels unaffordable for any but the rich.That prospect will doubtlessly provoke protests that direct consumption of grain can’t provide the same protein that meat provides. Indeed, it can’t. But nutritionists will attest that most people in the richest countries don’t need nearly as much protein as we’re currently getting from meat, and there are plenty of vegetable sources — including the grains now squandered on feed —that can provide the protein we need.1. T he author cites the example of Caesar’s feat to suggest that[A] Caesar made a big triumphal entrance into Rome .[B] the victory was celebrated with various kinds of meat.[C] people think eating meat is a symbol of wealth and victory.[D] Caesar and his guests enjoy the feast with meet very much.2. The author compares meat eating to cigarette smoking because[A] both of them are personal habits.[B] they cost a lot of economic and social resources.[C] eating meat can be expensive if people like to smoke.[D] they can lead to some serious diseases.3. What can be inferred from paragraph 3?[A] To produce the same amount of beef needs 7000 times the weight of water.[B] The resources we need to make a hamburger equal to that of 40 showers.[C] As more water is used to raise poultry, water scarce regions will increase.[D] To control water deficit, governments will raise the price of meat.4. According to the text, which of the following is true?[A] Only a small part of the grain is directly consumed in the world.[B] Eating meat might be a symbol of richness in the future.[C] People today eat much more meat than what is necessary.[D] Many rich countries face the problem of fresh water shortage.5. Which is the best title for the text?[A] The change of food structure in America.[B] Water shortage caused by meat consumption.[C] The increase of meat supply around the globe.[D] The cost of meat consumption.T ext 2I agree that the Canadian immersion and bilingual schools have been successful in producing functionally bilingual students. In the province of Manitoba, there are French, Ukrainian, and German immersion schools; Hebrew bilingual schools; and a school for native Indian students. English immersion programs are popular for students from the province of Quebec as well as from countries such as Libya and Japan. However, Mr. Whelpton’s suggested condition that teachers in these schools must be fully bilingual may be unnecessary. For example, primary teachers can and do function with a smaller vocabulary than secondary teachers.Secondly, it is doubtful that students will use English because they “understand and accept the objective of making English the language of the classroom,”which is a rather sterile motive. One reason that Canadian immersion programs work is because of the commitment to Whole Language Learning ,that is, children learn a language,(first or second),by using it to transmit or receive meaningful messages that are interesting, real and important.They want to make their needs and desires known and to understand the world around them. Immersion programs integrate language and content in an activity-based, child-centered manner so that the child is motivated to use the second language as a tool to transmit and receive messagesrelated to social and academic interests. In addition the second language is modeled throughout the school, is encouraged and rewarded, and thus becomes the language of choice. It is not necessary to “abandon” Cantonese; an immersion program should provide some daily instruction in the first language.Mr. Whelpton’s third argument that all the students in one class need to be at approximately the same level of English proficiency when they switch to English is unrealistic and unprofitable. How does a teacher group children who have a huge vocabulary but poor grammar skills and others who have correct grammar but a poor vocabulary?Also, suppose the students have similar language abilities but different learning styles! The odds are that a teacher, at any point in time, will be teaching at a level that is too difficult for one-third, too easy for one-third and appropriate for the final one-third of the students. Hence the concept of co-operative learning: students in heterogeneous groups with a mixture of personalities, talents and weaknesses (a more realistic reflection of life) learn better as they co-operate, instead of compete, and depend on each other for support and information. This type of learning environment frees the teacher from the traditional lecturing mode in favor of circulating, monitoring and challenging the students to make use of their different experiences to expand their knowledge and skills.6. The writer’s attitude towards the Canadian immersion program is[A] balanced. [B] unenthusiastic.[C] supportive. [D] critical.7.The word “sterile” (Line 2, Para 2 )is closest in meaning to[A] uninspiring. [B] unusual.[C] stereotypical. [D] uninformative.8. The Canadian immersion program has been a success because[A] it makes English the language of the classroom.[B] students in classrooms are at about the same level.[C] students can use their first language freely in classrooms.[D] it works towards real life goals of the students.9. According to the author the reality of classroom teaching is[A] more straightforward than Mr. Whelpton describes.[B] more difficult to control than Mr. Whelpton describes.[C] more lively than Mr. Whelpton describes.[D] more complicated than Mr. Whelpton describes.10. The author uses a colon (Line 3, Para 5) to[A] give evidence for the point made. [B] explain the term.[C] introduce the consequence. [D] provide a reason.T ext 3The strongest case for globalization is the liberal one. It is almost never heard, least of all from governments or businessmen. International economic integration, on the liberal view, is what happens when technology allows people to pursue their own goals and they are given the liberty to do so. If technology advances to the point where it supports trade across borders, and if people then choose to trade across borders, you have integration, and because people have freelychosen it this is a good thing. Also, again because people have freely chosen this course, you would expect there to be economic benefits as well.By and large, theory and practice confirm that this is so. Adam Smith’s invisible hand does its work. People choose what serves their own self-interest, each of them making that judgment for himself. The result is that society as a whole prospers and advances spontaneously, not by design of any person or government.All kinds of qualifications and elaborations are needed, obviously, to fill out the argument properly. This survey will offer some of them in due course. But it is essential to understand one point from the outset. The liberal case for globalization is emphatically not the case for domestic or international laisser faire. Liberalism lays down no certainties about the requirements of social justice in terms of income redistribution or the extent of the welfare state. It recognizes that markets have their limits, for instance intending to the supply of public goods (such as a clean environment). A liberal outlook is consistent with support for a wide range of government interventions; indeed a liberal outlook demands many such interventions.But the starting point for all liberals is a presumption that, under ordinary circumstances, the individual knows best what serves his interests and that the blending of these individual choices will produce socially good results. Two other things follow. The first is an initial skepticism, at least, about collective decision making that overrides the individual kind. The other is a high regard for markets not as a place where profits are made, it must be stressed, but as a place where society advances in the common good.Why then are governments and business leaders rarely heard to put this case? Because for the most part they are not liberals. Perhaps it goes with the job that politicians of left and right, traditional and modern, have an exaggerated view of their ability to improve on the spontaneous order of a lightly governed society.11. What is the liberal’s understanding of the economic integration?[A] It is designed by the government.[B] It has nothing to do with technology.[C] It is people’s own choice.[D] It brings to people economic benefits.12. What does t he word “argument” (Line 1, Paragraph 3) refer?[A] People choose what serves their own self-interest.[B] Technology allows people to pursue their own goals.[C] Theory and practice confirm that this is so.[D] Society as a whole prospers and advances spontaneously.13. It can be inferred from Para 3 that[A] the global liberal is either domestic or international laisser faire.[B] liberalism requires social justice and the extent of the welfare state.[C] liberals can supply markets with a clean environment.[D] a liberal outlook demands many government interventions.14. The initial skepticism most probably thinks that[A] the combination of individual choices produces socially good results.[B] market is a place where society advances in the common good.[C] the individual knows best what serves his interests.[D] collective decision making overrides the individual kind.15. According to the text, who can be a liberal?[A] Adam Smith. [B] A businessman.[C] A business leader. [D] A politician.T ext 4A couple of months ago, Blanca Nubia Chamorro, aged 12, found a ball in her village in southern Nicaragua. As she was playing, it blew up. Blanca now lies in hospital without her left arm and right hand.Y ears after all fighting has stopped, landmines continue to cripple people in countries that have savage wars, including Nicaragua, Cambodia and Mozambique. Afghanistan, where new fighting is now awaited, may still be the most heavily mined area in the world. Moreover, the vile contraptions continue to be planted by governments or rebels in some 25 countries. According to the International Campaign to Ban Landmines (IGBL), mines claim well over 15,000 victims a year in about 90 countries. At least matters are not as bad as they were. As they got together in Nicaragua on September 18th, the parties to the 1997 Ottawa convention which bans the use, production, stockpiling, sale and purchase of landmines had cause for congratulation. The ICBL was able to report that 185 square meters (46,000 acres) of mined territory was cleared last year; the number of producers has shrunk from 55 to 14 over the past few years; trade seems to have come to a halt; stockpiles are shrinking, with 27m mines destroyed; the number of new victims, while still high, is declining. There are now 120 full members of the convention, with another 21 on the way.Y et 240m landmines are still thought to be stockpiled in about 100 countries. The Ottawa convention requires members to clean up their arsenals within four years, but nearly 20 countries have not even started to do so. More to the point, most of the world’s landmines are held by countries that have declined to sign the treaty. Russia and America, two determined non-joiners, have stockpiles estimated at 65m and 11m respectively. Theoretically, the Ottawa convention is legally binding, but identifying the culprits, let alone enforcing the law, is not easy. Many members have not yet provided clear information about their landmines, an obligation under the convention. Monitoring what is happening to the mines is difficult and time-consuming and is not part of the convention: most of the work is carried out by the IGBL’s 115 researchers. And even when countries are found guilty, bringing them back into line depends on peer pressure, since no clear penalty system has been devised.Another troubling point is that the convention binds only governments. Y et landmines are a weapon of choice for rebels. The Nicaraguan meeting acknowledged that insurgents too should give them up. But it will take much more than peer pressure to get them to do so.16. The author’s purpose in writing Para.1 is[A] to make it interesting to attract the readers.[B] to show the tragedy that landmines produce.[C] to tell the reader a story of a pitiful girl.[D] to introduce something about landmines .17. Which of the following is true about landmines?[A] Mozambique and Afghanistan are among the most heavily mined areas.[B] In more than twenty countries, governments or rebels still use landmines.[C] The September 18th convention covers the use and sell of landmines[D] The landmine storage declines, thanks to the removal of many arsenals,.18. The IGBL congratulated because[A] a wide area of mined territory was found and the landmines were destroyed.[B] the reduction of producers caused the shrinking of landmine stockpiles.[C] trade of landmines had been stopped due to pressure from members.[D] the number of new victims in about 90 countries declined to a satisfying level.19. The phrase “on the way” (Line 10, Para 2) most probably means[A] planning to join. [B] planning to withdraw from the treaty.[C] planning to use landmines. [D] planning to abandon landmines.20. The underlined sentence in Para 3 shows that[A] many members haven’t reported their landmines clearly and timely.[B] surveying what is happening to the mines is difficult and wastes time.[C] it is difficult to put the culprits under penalty since the law is imperfect.[D] the convention binds both governments and rebels to plant landmines.Part BDirections:You are going to read a text, followed by a list of examples. Choose the best item from the list [A]-[F] for each numbered subheading (21-25). There is one extra item which you do not need to use.The high-tech revolution has inspired a seemingly endless stream of new and exciting electronic products that we just can’t live without. In fact, the dizzying speed of technological innovation can make last year’s must-have this year’s junk.And that’s the problem. The average life span of a personal computer has shrunk to around 18 months —and this had nothing to do with worn-out mice or damaged disk drives. Simply put, electronic products can become obsolete before you’ve even figured out how they work.21. However，out-fashioned electronic machines are disposed in ways disagreeable.Many end up in landfills and that is where the trouble really begins. Computer monitors can contain up to 3.5kg of lead and can actually be considered hazardous waste once they are no longer in use. Circuit boards in electronic products contain cadmium, chromium and mercury, all of which are toxic substances that can leach into groundwater if left in a landfill.22. Unfortunately, disposal problem is growing by the minute.In Europe, 6 million metric tons of electrical and electronic equipment were generated in 1998 alone, and that volume is expected to increase three to five percent per year — which means by 2010 it could nearly double.23. Actions are taken to answer the problem raised by techno-trash.24. Companies are searching for new ways of tackling disposal issues before they become a problem, thus eliminating the need for legislative solutions. One way to reduce waste is to avoid throwing this away in the first place. Many companies reuse parts from old products in new models. This is not cheating — it makes both environmental and economic sense.25. Electronic products garbage cannot necessarily be reined in during only one phase.IBM, meanwhile, recently unveiled programs in Canada and the U.S. that, for a small fee, will take back not just an IBM but any manufacturer’s computer. Depending on the age andcondition, the equipment will then be either refurbished and donated to charity, or broken down and mined for reusable parts and recyclable materials.[A] Canon, for example, has adopted a corporate philosophy known as”kyosei”. In Canon’s context it means “living and working together for the common good”—including a fundamental goal of achieving sustainable economic development and harmony between the environment and corporate activities. The company has even gone so far as to say that environmental assurance should come before all business activities, and that companies incapable of achieving such assurance do not deserve to remain in business.[B] In Japan alone, consumers throw away some 20 million TVs, washing machines, refrigerators and air conditioners each year.[C] In 1999, the recoverable ratio including closed recycling, was 97 percent for Bubble Jet ink cartridges in Japan.[D] The European Commission has proposed a directive that would require all electronic manufacturers to take back and properly dispose of all electronic products, regardless of their age. The details are still being ironed out, but some version of the directive will most probably become law in the next few years. Similar legislation is in preparation in the U. S. and has already been passed in Japan.[E] Old keyboards, monitors, organizers and CPUs are stashed away in the attic or forgotten in a corporate warehouse, taking up valuable space.[F] One concept，called “design for the environment”is in evidence at Kyocera Mita, whose Ecosys laser printers do not use disposable toner cartridges. Using advanced ceramics technology, these printers include a durable print drum with a super-hard coating that can produce up 300,000 pages of high-quality printing. Not only does this make ecological sense and keep cartridges out landfills, but also it saves the customer money.Part CDirections:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese.Our age is in many ways unique, full of phenomena that never occurred before and never can again. They distort our thinking, making us believe that what is true now will be true forever, though perhaps on a larger scale. Because we have overcome distance on this planet, we imagine that we can do the same in space. 26)The truth is otherwise, and we will see it more clearly if we forget the present and turn our minds toward the past.To our ancestors, the vastness of the earth was a dominant factor in their thoughts and lives. No man could ever see more than a tiny fraction of the earth. Only a lifetime ago, parents waved farewell to their emigrating children, knowing that they would never see them again. Now, within one incredible generation, all this has changed. Psychologically as well as physically, there are no longer any remote places on earth. 27)When a friend leaves for what was once a distant country, we cannot feel that same sense of unchanged separation that saddened our forefathers. We know that he is only hours away by plane, and we have merely to reach for the telephone to hear his voice.When the satellite communication network is fully established, it will be as easy to see friends on the far side of earth as to talk to them on the other side of town. Then the world will shrink no more. 28)From a world that has become too small, we are moving out into one that will be forever large, whose frontiers will recede from us always more swiftly than we can reach outtoward them.Modern technology might seem to make even the solar system a comfortable homey place. Y ou might think that such giant planets as Saturn and Jupiter would come to hold the same place in our thoughts that African and Asia do today. 29)Remember, however, that as soon as we pass beyond the orbit of the moon, a mere quarter-million miles away, we will meet the first of the barriers that will separate the earth from her widely scattered children — time.The wonderful telephone and television network that will soon cover the whole world can never be extended into space. It will never be possible to talk with anyone on another planet.30)The problem is the length of time necessary for the transmission of the message, which will take minutes or hours to travel, because radio and light waves travel at the rate of 186,000 miles a second and cannot be hurried up. In distances of more than a million miles, the time lag will be intolerable. Under such circumstances an exchange of verbal messages is possible —but not a conversation.做题点拨与全文翻译Part AT ext 1语境词汇1. gorge vt.贪婪地吞咽n.咽喉；山峡2. exorbitant a.过度的；极高的3. subsidize vt.给…津贴或补贴4. degenerative a.变质的；退化的；退步的5. divert vt.使转移；使得到消遣6. aquifer n地下蓄水层；砂石含水层7. replenish vt.补充8. provoke vt.激起，激怒9. attest vt.证明；作为…的见证10. squander vt.（指钱、财产等）浪费难句突破1.[Much as we have awakened to the full economic and social costs of cigarettes,] we will find we can no longer subsidize or ignore the costs of mass-producing cattle, poultry, pigs, sheep and fish [to feed our growing population.]【分析】复合句。

大学英语B阅读理解十四篇09真题

大学英语B阅读理解十四篇09真题大学英语B阅读理解十四篇（09真题）Passage 1A foreigner's first impression of the U.S. is likely to be that everyone is in arush-often under pressure. City people always appear to be hurrying to get where they are going restlessly, seeking attention in a store, and elbowing others as they try to complete their errands(任务). Racing through daytime meals is part of the pace of life in this country.Working time is considered precious. Others in public eating places are waiting for you to finish so that they too can be served and get back to work within the time allowed. Each person hurries to make room for the next person. If you don’t, waiters will hurry you.You also find drivers will be abrupt and people will push past you. You will miss smiles, brief conversations, and small courtesies with strangers. Don't take it personally. This is because people value time highly, and they resent someone else "wasting" it beyond a certain courtesy point.The view of time affects the importance we attach to patience. In the American system of values, patience is not a high priority. Many of us have what might be called ―a short fuse.‖ We begin to move restlessly about if we feel time is slipping away without some returns in terms of pleasure, work value, or rest. Those coming from lands where time is looked upon differently may find this matter of pace to be one of their most difficult adjustments in both business and daily life.Many newcomers to the States will miss the openingcourtesy of a business call, for example, they will miss the ritual interaction that goes with a welcoming cup of tea or coffee that may be a convention in their own country. They may miss leisurely business chats in a café or coffee house. Normally, Americans do not assess their visitors in such relaxed surroundings over prolonged small talks. We seek out evidence of past performance rather than evaluate a business colleague through social courtesies. Since we generally assess and probe professionally rather than socially, we start talking business very quickly.一个外国人对于美国的第一印象很有可能是每个人都在压力下匆匆忙忙。

2021届福建省英语高考复习记叙文阅读理解训练14(含答案解析)

福建省英语高考复习记叙文阅读理解训练14（含答案解析）1Twice every month, Miranda Sam, a 66-year-old Ghanaian, visited the China Traditional Herbal Hospital, a private herbal facility at Pokuase, a suburb of the Ghanaian capital, for treatment.“I was squeezing lemons, and when I finished, I could not get up or even move my legs, so I went to the hospital and did an X-ray examination, but they saw nothing. Meanwhile, I could not walk and was in a wheelchair,” the retired worker said. Hence Miranda decided to visit the herbal facili ty. “On two occasions, I had to do acupuncture(针灸), and I have found great relief. Now I walk unaided, so I keep coming for treatment,” she said.As Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is gaining popularity in Ghana, many acupuncture clinics run by Chinese doctors pop up in the country. However, the China Traditional Herbal Hospital was established by 52-year-old Ghanaian business owner Bediako, after his fruitful encounter with the effects of TCM in 2012. With the help of a Chinese lady, Bediako set up a small clinic specializing in TCM. Years on, the facility has subsequently grown into a bigger herbal hospital. The hospital treats patients with a combination of local and Chinese herbal formulas. It supports this with the application of traditional Chinese medical methods.Strokes(中风) account for 1.3 percent of all hospital admissions in Ghana, and 6.3 percent of all hospital deaths. But Bediako is confident that as more people with these conditions turn to the natural methods of healing, the pain and death rates would subside. “A gentleman was brought here three weeks ago, who could not sit, stand, or walk. He was first taken through acupuncture. I observed him on camera 30 minutes later, squatting(蹲), standing, and walking. You come here with your pain but will leave with a smile. That is our feature,” he said.The hospital has started a second facility in Ashaiman near the capital, with plans to open other branches across the country to meet the growing demand.1. What can we learn from Miranda’s words in P aragraph 2?A. Her illness is not a bit severe.B. Squeezing lemons is a risky job.C. She is feeling better now.D. She is unsure about what to do next.2. What do we know about Bediako’s hospital?A. It is located in the downtown area.B. It was originally a specialized clinic.C. It was established by a Chinese doctor.D. It uses nothing but Chinese herbs.3. What does the underlined word “subside” in Paragraph 4 mean?A. Decline.B. Remain.C. Climb.D. Change.4. What’s the writer’s probab le attitude towards the TCM in Ghana?A. Negative.B. Optimistic.C. Uncertain.D. Concerned.答案：1-4 CBAB【语篇导读】这是一篇记叙文。

Few students like homework, but it is an important part of middle school life in the UK.The UK has these rules for homework: Grades7and 8 （ages 11 to 13 ）: 45 to 90 minutes per day; Grade 9 （ages 14 to 15）:1 to 2 hours a day.Today, many homework tasks are done on a computer. For example, preparing reports, using the Internet or doing online tasks. So schools are usually open before and after normal hours. In this way, students without computers or the Internet at home can use the schools' facilities （设备）.Sometimes, students are given extended learning tasks. That means they need to do more research and analysis （分析）.But however big a task is, teachers always give feedback 反馈）to help students find the areas where they can improve.Some schools send students home with home diaries. They advise parents to check on their Children's progress. Sadly, not every parent takes much interest. In a survey of 1,000 students aged 11 to 18, over 10 percent said that they did not have space at home to do homework.

高考英语阅读理解真题汇编(含答案)及解析一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解Kyle Cassidy and three other members of the Annenberg Running Group were stretching on the grounds of the University of Pennsylvania, waiting for a few latecomers. The Penn colleagues and other community members meet three days a week for a roughly 30-minute jog and an occasional lecture. That's right― during some runs, one of them delivers a talk. Topics range from the brain to Bitcoin.But on this day last January, it would not be their normal run. The first clue that something was off was the man who sprinted past them. "Running at an amazing pace," Cassidy told Runner's World admiringly. Cassidy discovered why the sprinter was so fleet of foot when another man ran by, yelling, "Help! He took my phone and laptop!"At that, the group did what running clubs do: They ran, trailing the suspect down the streets of Philadelphia until he ducked into a construction site. The runners split up. Cassidy ran around to the far side of the site to cut the thief off while the others wandered the neighborhood hoping he had dumped the loot (赃物)in a backyard.No luck. So they decided to ask residents whether they'd seen the guy. When they knocked on the door of one row house, they were in for a surprise. Unknown to them, he had already emerged from the construction site—and was hiding behind a bush by that very house. As the owner opened the door, the suspect darted out from behind the bush ... and right into the arms of campus police, who'd joined the chase shortly behind the runners.The members of this running group are not hard-core athletes. But they do understand the benefit of a little exercise. ''Running is typically a useless sport where you turn fat cells into heat," Cassidy told The Philadelphia Inquirer. "But occasionally it can be useful, and here was one of those opportunities."（1）Why do the group members gather together?A.To do some stretching.B.To have a regular run.C.To deliver a lecture.D.To cover some topics.（2）What does the underlined word "sprinted" in Paragraph 2 probably mean?A.Dashed.B.Pushed.C.Jumped.D.Escaped.（3）We can infer that the success of the chase is mainly due to____ .A.the assistance of the runnersB.the owner of the row houseC.the campus police on patrolD.the joint efforts of the people（4）Which of the following best describes Cassidy?A.Athletic and generous.B.Courageous and ambitious.C.Helpful and humorous.D.Thoughtful and demanding.【答案】（1）B（2）A（3）D（4）C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了跑步俱乐部成员和校园警察等众人合力将抢了别人电话和笔记本电脑的嫌犯抓获的故事。
