Wildlife Protection李仕才【阅读理解插花】Our “Mommyand Me” time began two years ago. Mynext -door neighbor and fellow mother, Christie, and I were out in our front yards, watching seven children of age 6 and under ride their bikes up and down. “I wish I could tak e one of my children out alone, ”said Christie.Then we worked out a plan: When Christie takes one of her children out, I 'll watch her other three. And when she watches two of mine, I 'll take someone out.The children were extremely quick to accept the i dea of “Mommy and M”e time. Christie 's daughter, McKenzie, went first. When she returned, the other children showered her with tons of questions. McKenzie was smiling broadly. Christie looked refreshed and happy. “She's like a different child when there 's no one elsearound, ”Christie shared with me quietly. With her mother all to herself, McKenziedidn 't have to make an effort to gain attention.Just as Christie had noticed changes in McKenzie, I also discovered something different in each of my children during our alone time. For example, I am always surprised when my daughter, who is seldom close to me, holds my hand frequently.My stuttering(口吃)son, Tom, doesn ' t stutter once during our activities since he doesn't have to struggle for a chance to speak. And the other son, Sam, who's always a follower when around other children shines as a leader during our times together.The “Mommy and M”e time allows us to be simply alone and away with eachchild —talking, sharing, and laughing, which has been the biggest gain. Every child deserves(应得到)to be an only child at least once in a while.【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。

Wildlife Protection李仕才***阅读理解。

We know a lot about the advantages and disadvantages of reading a hard­copy book vs. reading electronically. The problem is, many of us refuse to listen.Do n’t get me wrong: Digital reading has some real advantages. Ask peo ple what they like most about reading on digital screens, and you hear over and over again about convenience. More points for digital reading:e­books tend to be cheaper. There’s also the environmental argument. Think of the trees!Yet the soundness of this case is arguable. The earth metals to build e­readers are not just rare but highly poisonous. And think about all that energy needed to run servers and cooling fans. And remember, trees are a renewable resource.Then, there’s the appeal of a hard copy. Many people prefer print when reading both for pleasure and for school or work. Drawing examples from my own research, some of the reasons are aesthetic(美学的). Others involve a sense of accomplishment, ease of annotation(“I can write on the pages”), and navigation(“easy to locate where I was”). Meanwhile, I hear abundant complaints about eye strain(眼疲劳) and headaches when using screens.Much of what students liked about reading print involved their minds. They say “it’s easier to focus”. Some also acknowledged they took more time with printed text and read more carefully.But what makes the failure of electronic reading is concentration. More than 92% of those I surveyed said they concentrated best when reading a hard copy. When a digital device has an Internet connection, it’s hard to resist the temptation(诱惑).So if digital interruptions don’t threaten your enjoyment or understanding of a text, then medium may not matter. Casual reading like David Baldacci? If you break to check sports scores, there will be little harm done. But just don’t expect to understand Joyce’s novels this way.【解题导语】文章主要介绍了在网络高度发达的社会中,电子书愈来愈有替代纸质书的趋势,然而作者通过对比两者的优缺点表达了对纸质书的青睐。

As we all know,the sisters Venus and Serena Williams are famous tennis champions in the world.In fact,the sisters’ road to success is very 1.amazing(amaze).2.Born(bear) in a poor and dangerous area,the two sisters often had to run and hide while3.practising(practise) tennis,4.for some bullets started flying.Finally the Williams moved to a safer area.The sisters’ father5.started(start) to train them when they were very young.He was strict with them,6.training(train)them hard to compete against each other.It was the sisters’ mother7.who/that helped them complete their high school at home.And today,both sisters are studying design at college,8.which they are very interested in.They9.have_made(make) fantastic progress since 1996.10.Fortunately(fortunate) for them,tennis has never caused problems between them.Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2016·沈阳第一次质量监测)In 2013 alone at least 20,000 African elephants were killed for their teeth.In South Africa over the last two years more than 2,200 rhinos were killed for their horns.These numbers are alarming,because current rates of illegal hunting are faster than birth rates,which could lead to extinction of these ecologically important creatures in the environment.Indeed,some elephant and rhino populations are on track to be locally extinct within the next decade.If you are reading this,you may already be aware of these facts.But you might not know that wildlife trafficking(非法交易) not only threatens the existence of elephants and rhinos but is also leading to extinction of other species,such as tigers,tortoises,sea turtles,and the world’s most trafficked mammal(哺乳动物)—pangolins.Pangolins are the only mammals that are entirely covered in toughscales(鳞),which makes them look very strong.But actually they are endangered mammals.There are eight different species of pangolins,four in Asia and four in Africa,and all are threatened with extinction.Although pangolins are protected throughout most of the countries where they live,high demand in East Asia,where the delicious pangolin meat is considered a delicacy and where their scales are used in traditional medicines,is driving an illegal trade in both live animals and pangolin parts.The number of pangolin trafficking is shocking.Experts believe that over the last 10 years more than 1 million pangolins were taken from the wild.It is estimated that between 40,000 and 81,250 pangolins were killed for the illegal trade in 2013 alone.In February,the United States released a plan to deal with wildlife trafficking,which lays out the steps we will take to fight the illegal trade in wildlife,including pangolins.We are strengthening the carrying out of the plan;building international cooperation and contribution to protect wildlife;raising awareness to drive down the demand that is fuelling the illegal trade.Get involved and remember World Wildlife Day(March 3) by spreading the e social media and tell everyone that now it is time to get serious about wildlife crime and end the demand that threatens species,big and small,from the huge elephant to the shy pangolin.1.How many endangered creatures are mentioned in the passage?A.4.B.5.C.6.D.7.2.Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3?A.Eight species of pangolins live on the same continent.B.Pangolins are not protected in most of their natural habitats.C.The scales of pangolins can be used as an ingredient for cooking.D.High demand contributes to the illegal trade of pangolins in East Asia.3.What can we know about the plan released by the US?A.Social media will be used to spread World Wildlife Day.B.Whether the plan will be worked out remains to be seen.C.The US will work together with other countries to protect wildlife.D.More and more people are advised to increase their needs of pangolins.4.What is the author’s intention of writing the passage?A.To inform us something about World Wildlife Day.B.To raise awareness of protecting endangered wildlife.C.To explain why pangolins are illegally traded in East Asia.D.To show how the United States is to fight the illegal trade in wildlife.BI love to read before I go to sleep.It usually makes me feel calm.But a big part of this depends on what I read.I love to read Oor Wullie and The Broons.Very often I'm smiling before I go to sleep.I decide to write about this in a blog because I find that so many of us go to sleep with stress.Before we go to sleep,we may run over the day in our minds,and worry about tomorrow.We also may watch the news on TV,read the news on our smart phones or tablets,or even answer work emails.But the news is rarely proclaiming(宣告)all the good that's happening in the world and work emails make us feel that we're still at work.All these things may leave us a stressful sleep.Oor Wullie and The Broons are not the only things I ever read at night.I sometimes read novels but,with the odd exception,I mostly avoid anything that is too mentally taxing or stimulating late at night unless it's something that inspires me or is clearly helpful in my life.And even if I do read something mentally stimulating,when I feel myself getting tired I lay that book down and pick up a trusty old Oor Wullie or The Broons for the last 10 or 15 minutes.Doing this makes my mind quiet and helps ensure I get a peaceful night's sleep.Reading about Wullie or Maw and Paw Broon is like a comfort blanket for me.I'd suggest you find light­hearted reading as a comfort blanket at bedtime,especially if you find yourself stressed or depressed a lot of the time,or if you find difficulty winding at the end of a day.It is the thing that can gently turn your attention towards lightness and ease.If your material makes you laugh,then you may feel even better.Several studies show that laughter boosts happy chemicals in the brain,it strengthens the immunesystem,it's good for the heart,and it is most definitely good for mental health.It even helps us improve our relationships.And if you do happen to pick up a copy of Oor Wullie or The Broons,I hope you find it just as entertaining as I do.1.What can we learn about Oor Wullie and The Broons?A.They make people run over the past days.B.They are the best books to be read before people sleep.C.They are extremely popular with young people.D.They make people feel relaxed and happy.2.What can we know from the text?A.Oor Wullie and The Broons are the author's favorite books.B.A comfortable blanket makes people go to sleep easily.C.The author sometimes reads something about inspirations.D.Reading something stimulating at night helps get a peaceful sleep.3.What is Paragraph 6 mainly about?A.What material brings us laughter.B.How laughter affects our health.C.What benefits laughter brings to us.D.Why laughter is good for us.4.What's the main purpose of the text?A.To show the importance of reading before sleeping.B.To prove the importance of a good mood before sleeping.C.To tell us how to make ourselves stay relaxed before sleeping.D.To explain how to choose a book worthy to be read before sleeping.【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。

高考英语复习训练题Ⅰ.阅读理解(2019·河南名校质量评估)Kazakhstan announced plans to bring wild tigers back to their historical range in the Ili­Balkhash region,and signed an agreement with World Wide Fund for Nature(WWF) to conduct a tiger reintroduction program.“It will not only bring wild tigers back to their ancestral home,but also protect the unique ecosystem o f the Ili­Balkhash region.”said Askar Myrzakhmetov,the Minister of Agriculture of the Republic of Kazakhstan.If successful,Kazakhstan will be the first country in the world to bring wild tigers back to an entire region where they have died out for nearly half a century.Tiger reintroduction projects have only been achieved within national borders and in areas that are considered current tiger habitats(栖息地).Kazakhstan's tiger reintroduction program is unique and it desperately requires the restoration of a vast forest that is part of the wild tiger's historical range.Since the beginning of the 20th century,wild tigers have lost over 90 per cent of their historical range.Wild tigers have completely disappeared from the region since the late 1940s,due to the loss of habitat.To prepare for the return of wild tigers,on 1st January 2018 Kazakhstan will set up a new nature reserve in the southwestern Ili­Balkhash,in order to restore the unique forest habitat.This will include the protection of existing wildlife,and reintroducing important prey(猎物),such as the endangered wild Bactrian deer.Restoring tigers will also help protect Lake Balkhash and prevent it from repeating the fate of the Aral Sea,formerly the world's fourth largest lake and now 10 per cent of its or iginal size.“The hard work remains ahead of us.We have to spare no effort to make this region ready for tigers and involve all stakeholders(利益相关者) to make this happen.That means dealing with illegal activities,having these people who govern parks be well­trained and equipped,increasing prey populations and involving local communities,”said Ekaterina Vorobyeva,Director of the WWF program.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

Wildlife Protection李仕才一、阅读理解A Japanese telecom company has released a robot that it says has emotions. But rather than running in fear from it, we’ve welcomed it into our homes: Pepper, the “emotional robot”, sold out within a minute of going on sale.Created by Aldebaran Robotics and Japanese mobile giant SoftBank, Pepper went on sale to the general public in Japan on June 20. It is “the first humanoid(类人的) robot designed to live with humans, ” Aldebaran says on its website. Pepper costs about $1, 600. And like all good mobile products, there’s a $120 per month data fee, as well as an $80 per month damage insurance fee. According to a news release, Pepper can pick up on human emotions and create its own using a “multi-layer neural(神经的) network. ” Pepper’s touch sensors and cameras are said to influence its mood, which is displayed on the tablet-sized screen on its chest.Pepper will sigh when unhappy, and can go around your house recording your family’s daily activity. Aldebaran says Pepper can feel “jo y, surprise, anger, doubt and sadness, ” but it doesn’t say how strongly it can feel these emotions. What happens when Pepper is having a bad day? Will it, like many humans, become uncooperative? Will it ask for some time alone? What happens if it figures out that its purpose in life is just to engage in small talks? Thankfully, Pepper is only about four feet tall, with roller balls instead of legs, so if it is angry with and even turns on its owner, you’ll be safe if you can make it upstairs.Aldebara n says in reality, there’re probably quite a few decades away from artificial intelligence that could generate real emotions. Aldebaran wasn’t immediately available for comment on when Pepper will be available outside of Japan, but additional sales are scheduled for July after the first 1, 000 units sell out. SoftBank currently uses the robots in its stores as greeters, and it plans to offer Pepper to other stores in the future. Hopefully “boredom” is not an emotion Pepper can feel.【文章大意】本文介绍日本的一家电信公司发布了第一台“情感机器人”, 阐述了情感机器人的使用费用、功能以及发展前景。

Volunteering Is FunOne afternoon I was sitting at home feeling so bored.Instead of feeling sorry for myself, I wanted to meet people and have new experiences so I decided to start volunteering.I searched on my computer and found a website where I could volunteer on a farm in France.My time working on a farm was a new experience for me.It was basically a free holiday as food and accommodation were provided.However,it was not your typical holiday as I had to look after fifteen horses and sleep at the top of a tower in a castle!I was an awful farmer but it did not matter because I made some great friends.However,you do not need to go abroad to volunteer.I have had plenty of adventures at home as volunteering can become a hobby.For example,I love singing so I had a good laugh waving my arms in an attempt to conduct my local choir.I did slowly improve and it felt great to conduct the choir in a concert.At university,I organised a concert for charity with my friends.It was really fun founding bands and raising money for a cause we believe in.It is true that you feel good volunteering but there are also other advantages.I once volunteered as a server at a charity sports event where the organizers gave me cupcakes to thank me for my services.I also volunteered in a charity shop so I found loads of nice cheap clothes to update my wardrobe(衣柜).While this is all fun,my favourite aspect of volunteering is creating and sharing stories.My terrible attempts at farming have given me hilarious stories to tell!Talking to volunteers from different countries and backgrounds has also helped me learn more about the world.I feel thankful to have had so much fun with many nice people thanks to volunteering.【解题导语】本文是一篇记叙文。

Wildlife Protection李仕才一、阅读理解。

With autumn on the horizon, the season’s first Oscar competitors are here. Already, the Hollywood Reporter has predicted that the often-snubbed(冷落的) Leonardo DiCaprio could win. Although before we get swept up in predictions, it’s nice to remember that little gold men are not the reason we love the movies. They shouldn’t be the primary reason for acting in them either.Bill Murray knows this first hand. Murray was positioned to win his first-ever Oscar Academy Award for 2004’s “Lost in Translation”, but he lost it to Sean Penn. Years later, Murray explained how he took the defeat in stride(从容应对), and his words should act as a blueprint for anyone who has failed:“I went through it once before and it’s nice to get nominated and win some prizes. You get to go to dinners and tell little stories and so forth. Then you get to get dressed up. And then you get to be on TV, which is sweet. And you can either win or lose. Well you’re not supposed to say ‘lose’ when you talk about the Os car. You are supposed to say ‘not chosen’. But I later realized that I had gotten a little caught up in the possibility of winning. So, shame on myself for getting caught in it. But I won a lot of the prizes for Lost in Translation. So I thought it didn’t seem unnatural to expect that I would be rewarded just one more time. So when it didn’t happen, I thought, ‘Well, that’s kind of funny.’ But to get prizes is not why you work.”Murray isn’t alone in those feelings. No mention of actors without Oscars would be complete without recognition of Leonardo DiCaprio, who said, “I don’t think I ever expected anything like an Oscar ever, to tell you the truth. That is not my motivation when I do these roles. I really am motivated by being able to work with great peop le and create a body of work that I can look back and be proud of.”Perhaps neither Murray nor DiCaprio will ever be introduced as an Academy Award-winning actor, but winning an Oscar for acting shouldn’t be the point. Here are some other amazing actors who never won an Oscar, even if you think they did:Julianne Moore, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, Tom Cruise, Harrison Ford, Will Smith. And they have proved that countless times before.1.We can learn about Bill Murray from the passage that_________.A. he felt a shamed that he didn’t win the Oscar.B. he never expected himself to win the Oscar.C. he had already won many other awards before he failed in Oscar.D. he is the first actor who had been predicted to win the Oscar but failed.2.Leonard DiCaprio is motivated to act different roles because _________A. he wants to win the Oscar.B. he can cooperate with great people.C. he wants others to take pride in him.D. he is not the only actor who hasn’t won the Oscar.3.The underlined word “that” in the last paragraph refers to “_________”.A. Neither Murray nor DiCaprio will won an Oscar.B. Winning an Oscar for acting shouldn’t be the point.C. Some amazing actors have never won an Oscar.D. You think that some actors should have won an Oscar.4.What is the writer’s attitude to Leonardo’s idea on winning an Oscar?A. Approving.B. CriticalC. Indifferent.D. Neutral.【文章大意】本文主要介绍了落选奥斯卡奖的比尔默里和莱昂纳多对奥斯卡奖的看法。

必修2 Unit 4 Wildlife protection李仕才一、阅读理解APeople who possess high self­esteem are able to commit better and produce a greater bond in relationships with others. Dr. Douglas feels that most people do not value themselves, but with love and self­respect an yone can be above normality and grasp success with the family, the office, or others.We have become too reliant on intelligence, beauty, and money for our own self­esteem. The loss of esteem reduces the will and ability to set and reach goals. In a series of reading Douglas teaches how to avoid negative statements, how to change them into self­facing behavior, and how to take charge of your mental attitude. Where other motivational and self­help work stops with the theoretical plan for success, Douglas takes everyday examples and puts them into his books. From raising children who believe in themselves to using self­esteem to help bridge the gap in the workplace, he gives readers concrete solutions to the problems that might ruin their interpersonal relations.Self­esteem building comes from filling your thoughts with positive affirmations (肯定) and learning to react to failures with motivation instead of self­destruction. These lessons are valuable for anyone who feels that life is even slightly out of control. People who feel they have adequate esteem can learn to use it to make their success grander, faster, and more beneficial for others. Douglas approaches this process of self­development as a means of more than creating good things for the individual but also for setting up keys for influencing good things for others.For more than thirty years, Dr. Douglas has addressed more than two million people on topics from time management to speaking effectively to raising drug­free children. He is the author of fifteen books, including How to Make a Habit of Succeeding.【文章大意】本文主要讲述了自尊心强的优势,以及如何培养自尊。

As we all know,the sisters Venus and Serena Williams are famous tennis champions in the world.In fact,the sisters’ road to success is very 1.amazing(amaze).2.Born(bear) in a poor and dangerous area,the two sisters often had to run and hide while3.practising(practise) tennis,4.for some bullets started flying.Finally the Williams moved to a safer area.The sisters’ father5.started(start) to train them when they were very young.He was strict with them,6.training(train)them hard to compete against each other.It was the sisters’ mother7.who/that helped them complete their high school at home.And today,both sisters are studying design at college,8.which they are very interested in.They9.have_made(make) fantastic progress since 1996.10.Fortunately(fortunate) for them,tennis has never caused problems between them.Ⅰ.阅读理解A(2016·沈阳第一次质量监测)In 2013 alone at least 20,000 African elephants were killed for their teeth.In South Africa over the last two years more than 2,200 rhinos were killed for their horns.These numbers are alarming,because current rates of illegal hunting are faster than birth rates,which could lead to extinction of these ecologically important creatures in the environment.Indeed,some elephant and rhino populations are on track to be locally extinct within the next decade.If you are reading this,you may already be aware of these facts.But you might not know that wildlife trafficking(非法交易) not only threatens the existence of elephants and rhinos but is also leading to extinction of other species,such as tigers,tortoises,sea turtles,and the world’s most trafficked mammal(哺乳动物)—pangolins.Pangolins are the only mammals that are entirely covered in tough scales(鳞),which makes them look very strong.But actually they are endangered mammals.There are eight different species of pangolins,four in Asia and four in Africa,and all are threatened with extinction.Although pangolins are protected throughout most of the countries where they live,high demand in East Asia,where the delicious pangolin meat is considered a delicacy and where their scales are used in traditional medicines,is driving an illegal trade in both live animals and pangolin parts.The number of pangolin trafficking is shocking.Experts believe that over the last 10 years more than 1 million pangolins were taken from the wild.It is estimated that between 40,000 and 81,250 pangolins were killed for the illegal trade in 2013 alone.In February,the United States released a plan to deal with wildlife trafficking,which lays out the steps we will take to fight the illegal trade in wildlife,including pangolins.We are strengthening the carrying out of the plan;building international cooperation and contribution to protect wildlife;raising awareness to drive down the demand that is fuelling the illegal trade.Get involved and remember World Wildlife Day(March 3) by spreading the e social media and tell everyone that now it is time to get serious about wildlife crime and end the demand that threatens species,big and small,from the huge elephant to the shy pangolin.1.How many endangered creatures are mentioned in the passage?A.4.B.5.C.6.D.7.2.Which of the following is TRUE according to Paragraph 3?A.Eight species of pangolins live on the same continent.B.Pangolins are not protected in most of their natural habitats.C.The scales of pangolins can be used as an ingredient for cooking.D.High demand contributes to the illegal trade of pangolins in East Asia.3.What can we know about the plan released by the US?A.Social media will be used to spread World Wildlife Day.B.Whether the plan will be worked out remains to be seen.C.The US will work together with other countries to protect wildlife.D.More and more people are advised to increase their needs of pangolins.4.What is the author’s intention of writing the passage?A.To inform us something about World Wildlife Day.B.To raise awareness of protecting endangered wildlife.C.To explain why pangolins are illegally traded in East Asia.D.To show how the United States is to fight the illegal trade in wildlife.BI love to read before I go to sleep.It usually makes me feel calm.But a big part of this depends on what I read.I love to read Oor Wullie and The Broons.Very often I'm smiling before I go to sleep.I decide to write about this in a blog because I find that so many of us go to sleep with stress.Before we go to sleep,we may run over the day in our minds,and worry about tomorrow.We also may watch the news on TV,read the news on our smart phones or tablets,or even answer work emails.But the news is rarely proclaiming(宣告)all the good that's happening in the world and work emails make us feel that we're still at work.All these things may leave us a stressful sleep.Oor Wullie and The Broons are not the only things I ever read at night.I sometimes read novels but,with the odd exception,I mostly avoid anything that is too mentally taxing or stimulating late at night unless it's something that inspires me or is clearly helpful in my life.And even if I do read something mentally stimulating,when I feel myself getting tired I lay that book down and pick up a trusty old Oor Wullie or The Broons for the last 10 or 15 minutes.Doing this makes my mind quiet and helps ensure I get a peaceful night's sleep.Reading about Wullie or Maw and Paw Broon is like a comfort blanket for me.I'd suggest you find light­hearted reading as a comfort blanket at bedtime,especially if you find yourself stressed or depressed a lot of the time,or if you find difficulty winding at the end of a day.It is the thing that can gently turn your attention towards lightness and ease.If your material makes you laugh,then you may feel even better.Several studiesshow that laughter boosts happy chemicals in the brain,it strengthens the immune system,it's good for the heart,and it is most definitely good for mental health.It even helps us improve our relationships.And if you do happen to pick up a copy of Oor Wullie or The Broons,I hope you find it just as entertaining as I do.1.What can we learn about Oor Wullie and The Broons?A.They make people run over the past days.B.They are the best books to be read before people sleep.C.They are extremely popular with young people.D.They make people feel relaxed and happy.2.What can we know from the text?A.Oor Wullie and The Broons are the author's favorite books.B.A comfortable blanket makes people go to sleep easily.C.The author sometimes reads something about inspirations.D.Reading something stimulating at night helps get a peaceful sleep.3.What is Paragraph 6 mainly about?A.What material brings us laughter.B.How laughter affects our health.C.What benefits laughter brings to us.D.Why laughter is good for us.4.What's the main purpose of the text?A.To show the importance of reading before sleeping.B.To prove the importance of a good mood before sleeping.C.To tell us how to make ourselves stay relaxed before sleeping.D.To explain how to choose a book worthy to be read before sleeping.【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。
