高一英语阅读理解解题技巧及经典题型及练习题(含答案)含解析

高一英语阅读理解解题技巧及经典题型及练习题(含答案)含解析一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解Here is a record of the discussion about AI (artificial intelligence) conducted by several scientists:Scientist A: I would say that we are quite a long way off developing the AI, though I do think it will happen within the next thirty or forty years. We will probably remain in control of technology and it will help us solve many of the world's problems. However, no one really knows what will happen if machines become more intelligent than humans. They may help us, ignore us or destroy us. I tend to believe AI will have a positive influence on our future lives, but whether that is true will be partly up to us.Scientist B: I have to admit that the potential consequences of creating something that can match or go beyond human intelligence frighten me. Even now, scientists are teaching computers how to learn on their own. At some point in the near future, their intelligence may well take off and develop at an ever-increasing speed. Human beings evolve biologically very slowly and we would be quickly substituted. In the short term, there is the danger that robots will take over millions of human jobs, creating a large underclass of unemployed people. This could mean large-scale poverty and social unrest. In the long term machines might decide the world would be better without humans.Scientist C: I'm a member of the Campaign to Stop Killer Robots. Forget the movie image of a terrifying Terminator stamping on human skulls and think of what's happening right now: military machines like drones, gun turrets and sentry robots are already being used to kill with very little human input. The next step will be autonomous “murderbots” following orders but finally deciding who to kill on their own. It seems clear to me that this would be extremely dangerous for humans. We need to be very cautious indeed about what we ask machines to do.（1）What is Scientist B worried about?A. AI technology will destroy the earth.B. Computers can't think by themselves.C. Robots will take the place of humans.D. Humans will be unhappy without machines.（2）What does the underlined word “this” in the last paragraph refer to?A. I launched the campaign to Stop Killer Robots.B. We forget the movie image of a terrifying Terminator.C. “Murderbots” can't decide by themselves.D. “Murderbots” will be against humans' orders.（3）Which statement is CORRECT according to the record?A. Scientist A thinks AI technology will never develop.B. The employment will be affected by AI technology in the future.C. “Murderbots” will follow the orders of their manufacturers in the wars.D. All the three scientists agree that AI technology will benefit human beings.（4）Who agree(s) AI has more negative aspects than positive aspects?A. Scientist AB. Scientist BC. Scientists B & CD. Scientists B & A【答案】（1）C（2）D（3）B（4）C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文，列出了三位科学家对于人工智能的评价。

She hopes to use the language at next year's Olympic Games in Tokyo. Takamizawa was one of the more than 200, 00 people who requested to volunteer for Tokyo's 2020 Games.

Takamizawa said that she was in high school when World War Two started.

精选电大《高级英语阅读(1)》期末考试试题及答案

Section J Reading Comprehension (40 points)Read the passage. Then answer the questions that follow. (5 points each)A Short History of the Changing FamilyPast Definitions of FamilyALike the community, the family is a social institution. Long ago, human beings lived in loosely-related groups. Each group had a common ancestor. But for over a millennium * there have been two main types of families in the world: the extended form and the nuclear form. The extended family may include grandparents, parents, and childrcn-in other words, relatives living in the same house or close together on the same street or in the same area. In contrast, the nuclear family consists of only parents and their biological or adopted children. Because of the industrialization in the nineteenth century, the nuclear family became the most common family structure.BKinds of Families TodayToday there are many different kinds of families around the globe. Some people live in traditional families——that is to say. a stay-at-home mother, a working father, and their own biological children. Others live in two-paycheck families—that is. both parents work outside the home. There are many single-parent families； in other words, only a mother or a father lives with the children. Still others have adoptive or foster families (i. c. , ndults take care of children not biologically theirs) or blended families—in other words, divorced or widowed men and women marry again and live with the children from their previous* or earlier, marriages. Some kids have stepparents—that is, mothers or fathers related to them by marriage instead of biology. In other families, some youngsters under the age of ]8 have to take care of kids—either their own or their younger siblings. In different countries around the world»there are also same-sex partnerships—with or without children—childless marriages, unmarried live-in relationships^ communal living groups, and so on.The Early 20th CenturyWhat caused the structure of the family to change? Here is an example from the Western world. !n the early 1900s in the United States* the divorce rate began to rise, and the birthrate began to decline； in other words, couples stayed married for fewer years, and they had fewer children. Women often chose to get an education and take jobs outside the home. Decades later, the same things began to occur in other industrialized countries—and then developing countries of the world as well.DThe 1930s and 1940sThe decades of the 1930s and 1940s were difficult years in both industrialized and developing countries. Many families faced serious financial problems because the heads of households lost their jobs. During World War II (1939-1945) * millions of women had to take care of their homes and their children al one. Because so many men were at war, thousands of these “war widows"—that is to say, women whose husbands were away at war一had to go to work outside the home. Most women worked long hours at hard jobs. There weren't many "perfect families. " They had problems.EAfter World War IIDuring the next decade the situation changed in many places. There were fewer divorces• and people married at a younger age and had more children than in the previous generation. Men made enough money to support the family, so a mother seldom worked outside the home when her children were small. Children began living at home longer—that is, until an older age, usually after high school or even college. The traditional family was returning in the United States, it seemed—as in many other countries.FThe End of the 20th CenturyIn the years between 1960 or so and the end of the 20th century, however, there were 1020 many new changes in the structure of the family around the globe. From the 1960s to the 1990$, the divorce rate in the Western world greatly increased and the birthrate fell by half.The number of single-parent families rose, and the number of couples living together without marriage went up even more. At the end of the 20th and beginning of the 21st centuries• young adul ts of some economic classes started staying with their parents longer* marrying later, and having kids at an older age. if at ali.The Family of the FutureMany people today would like the traditional two-parent family back—that is to say, they want a man and a woman to marry for lifej they also think the man should support the family and the woman should stay home with the children. However, few families now fail into this category. In fact, if more women decide to have children on their own, the singleparent household may become more typical than the traditional family in many countries. Also, unmarried couples may decide to have more children—or they might take in foster children or adopt. And because people are staying single and living longer (often as widows), there may be more one-person households in the future. On the other hand* some people believe similar events happen again and again in history. If this is true* people may RO back to the traditional extended or nuclear family of the past. Others think the only certainty in history is change：in other words, the structure of the future family could begin to change faster and faster—and in more and more ways.Complete the following statements by choosing the best from the answers A, B.

Then answer the questions that follow. (3 points each)Biomctcorologists and Their ResearchWeather has a powerful impact on the physical world. It also affects people' s personalities. How do wc know about the effects of weather on people? We know from biometeorologists. These scientists study weather. They study how atmospheric conditions 1022affect human health and emotions. The word atmosphere means "the air around the earth."a Atmospheric conditions at a time or place" is a definition of the word weather. Some examples of theseconditions are sun, wind, rain, snow, humidity»and air pressure. The weather conditions of the atmosphere greatly influence people's health, thinking, and feelings.How Wind Can Affect HealthAll over the world♦ winds come down from high mountain areas. The winds fall fasterUKIU・ aiiu inc an wdinici aiiu uricr. ” not uv xy UMVUI IIIV iicaiiii effects of this kind of weather? According to biomctcorologists in Russia* powerful winds from the mountains increase the number of strokes. Also* sometimes strong southern winds blow north over Italy. During these times, researchers say, Italians have more heart attacks. People everywhere have bad headaches during times of forceful winds. And Japanese weather scientists say there is an increase in the number of asthma attacks.Possible Effects of Other Kinds of WeatherDo other kinds of weather influence physical health? Sudden temperature changes in winter are often associated with a cold or the flu. However, colds and flu probably increase because people are in close contact indoors in cold weather. Colds and flu may even lead to pneumonia. Other illnesses also increase during long periods of cold weather. In most places, diseases of the blood and heart attacks are more common in winter. But in some very hot and humid regions♦there are more heart attacks in summer. Many people have high blood pressure. In three out of four people, blood pressure falls in warm weather. But some people have lower blood pressure in the cool or cold times of the year.Weather and MoodThese forces of nature greatly affect people f s moods too. For many people, winter in the northernregions is very depressing. They eat and sleep a lot, bur they usually feel tired. They are nervous and can * t work well. They arc irritable. Biometeorologists even have a name for this condition. The name is Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). Scientists think the cause of this mood disorder is the long periods of darkness. Even during the day, it is 1023often cloudy or gray. What can people with SAD do about their moods? Naturally, they need more light! On bright days they feel better. But people don't work very well on sunny, hot, and humid days. The best weather for good work and thinking is cool and clear.Decide whether the following statements arc true or false. Write M T M for True and "F" for False on the Answer Sheet.6.Biometeorologists study human responses to academic lectures. A definition of weather is -places on the earth like mountains* countries, and communities.”7.During times of fast, strong winds from high mountain areas, there are more health problems like strokes, heart attacks* headaches, and asthma.8.Sudden winter temperature changes* long cold periods, or heat and humidity canbring illnesses like colds, flu, or pneumonia. 9. The atmosphere and weather don't affect people's moods. People in the northern regions just like to eat and sleep a lot. work bndly, and feel depressed all the time. 10.

And at , you can access lectures by artists, scholars, designers, technicians and others.TED began in 1984 as a conference that brought together individuals from the fields of technology, entertainment and design. It was intended to be a one-time event focusing on technology and design. The event ended up losing money, and it was six years before the founders tried it again. This time it worked, and since 1990, the TED conference has been an annual event. There are now two held every year, with topics as diverse as music, medicine, and money. Other specialized spin-off conferences address narrower issues.The TED website came from a desire to share the conferences with the world, to "offer free knowledge from the world's most inspired thinkers," as the website puts it. The current version of the site was launched in April 2007, and contains videos of talks given at the TED conferences around the world. The talks are transcribed into hundreds of languages.The TED website is owned by the Sapling Foundation, a non profit devoted to fostering the spread of great ideas. The Sapling foundation acquired TED in 2001. Since then, it has been focusing on using TED to broadcast ideas that might change the world.TED, of course, isn't immune to criticism. It's been called elitist(精英) for its high ticket prices (more than 6,000 dollars total). It's been accused by a few people of censorship for not publishing their talks. One controversial speaker was upset about being criticized by the conference's host afterward.The complaints, however, seem to be relatively few for such a large, long-running organization. And accusations of elitism ring hollow when so much is given away for free on TED's website.

高级英语读写期末试题及答案

高级英语读写期末试题及答案Section 1: Reading ComprehensionPart A: Multiple ChoiceRead the following passage and answer the questions below.(1) In recent years, social media platforms have revolutionized the way people communicate and share information. The rise of platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter has provided individuals with new avenues for self-expression and connection.(2) One key benefit of social media is its ability to facilitate instant communication between individuals, regardless of distance. In the past, long-distance communication relied heavily on traditional methods such as letters or phone calls, which could be time-consuming and expensive. Social media platforms have made it possible to connect and share updates with friends and family around the world in real-time, with just a few clicks.(3) Another major advantage of social media is its role in promoting social and political movements. Through platforms like Twitter and Instagram, users can spread important messages, raise awareness, and mobilize support for various causes. This has played a crucial role in movements such as the #MeToo movement or the Black Lives Matter movement, giving a voice to marginalized communities and serving as a catalyst for change.(4) However, the rise of social media also brings its fair share of challenges. One significant concern is the issue of privacy. As peoplewillingly share personal information and engage in online discussions, their data becomes vulnerable to exploitation by malicious actors. Instances of identity theft and online harassment are on the rise, highlighting the need for individuals to exercise caution while using social media platforms.(5) Moreover, social media can sometimes have a negative impact on mental health. The constant exposure to carefully curated images and highlights of others' lives can lead to feelings of inadequacy and low self-esteem. Furthermore, the addictive nature of social media can result in decreased productivity and increased social isolation.(6) In conclusion, social media has undoubtedly transformed the way we communicate and interact with others. While it brings several advantages such as instant communication and the amplification of social movements, it also poses challenges such as privacy concerns and detrimental effects on mental health. Ultimately, it is essential for users to strike a balance and adopt responsible usage of these platforms to fully reap their benefits.1.

One of the main advantages of globalization is the facilitation of the global exchange of goods and services. This has led to greater availability and diversity ofproducts, enabling consumers to access goods from all over the world. Moreover, globalization has resulted in improved economic growth and job opportunities, particularly in developing countries that have become key players in the global market.However, globalization also presents some disadvantages. One major concern is the growing income inequality between developed and developing nations. While globalization has created wealth for some, it has simultaneously deepened poverty for others. Additionally, the outsourcing of jobs to cheaper labor markets has impacted local economies, leading to unemployment and social unrest.In conclusion, globalization is a complex phenomenon with both positive and negative aspects.
