高中英语真题-2014高考英语完形填空、阅读理解精品系列(12)含答案

高中英语真题:2014高考英语完形填空、阅读理解精品系列(12)含答案AThe Child Ego StateThe Child ego state is a set of behaviors, thoughts and feelings which are replayed from our own childhood.Perhaps the boss calls us into his or her office, we may immedi ately get a churning in our stomach and wonder what we have done wrong. If this were explored we might remember the time t he head teacher called us in to tell us off. Of course, not everyt hing in the Child ego state is negative. We might go into someo ne’s house and smell a lovely smell and remember our grandm other’s house when we were little, and all the same warm feelin gs we had at six years of age may come flooding back.The Child ego states are constantly being updated. For exampl e, we may meet someone who gives us the permission we nee ded as a child, and did not get, to be fun and joyous. We may w ell use that person in our imagination when we are stressed to r esist our old ways of thinking that we must work longer and longer hours to keep up with everything. We might ask ourselves “I wonder what X would say now.” Then on hearing the new perm issions to relax and take some time out, do just that and then re turn to the work renewed and ready for the challenge. Afterward s, rather than blaming ourselves for what we did or did not do, what tends to happen is that we automatically start to give ours elves new permissions and take care of ourselves. Alternatively, we might have had an extremely unpleasant expe rience yesterday which goes into the Child ego state as an anti que memory that stands in the way of our growth. Positive expe riences will also go into the Child ego state as antique memorie s. The positive experiences can then be drawn on to remind us that positive things do happen.The process of analyzing personality in terms of ego states is c alled structural analysis. It is important to remember that ego st ates do not have an existence of their own. They are concepts t o enable understanding. Therefore it is important to say “I want some fun” rather than “My Child wants some fun.” We may be i n our Child ego state when we say this, but saying “I” reminds u s to take responsibility for our actions.1. The writer uses two examples in Paragraph 2 in order to ____ _.A. support the idea in Paragraph 1B. explain whywe become nervousC. prove the Child ego state is negativeD. introduce the point of Paragraph 32. By asking “I wonder what X would say now”, we intend to ___ _______.A. blame ourselvesB. accept challengesC. keep up with everythingD. avoid stress3. According to the passage, the Child ego state __________.A. shows one’s wisdomB. influences on e’s actionsC. limits one’s thoughtsD. exists in one’s childho od4. The underlined word “this” in the last paragraph refers to ___ _______.A. structural analysisB. “My Child wants some fu n”C. the Child ego stateD. “I want some fun”*************************BThe Cave Crawler mining robotWhy do human beings still risk their lives under ground and doing one of the dirtiest and most dangerous jobs in the world? It’s an increasingly urgent question,given the recent high-profile(引人注目的)mining accidents in Sago, W. Va., and Huntington, Utah.A small group of engineers and robotics experts envision(展望)a day in the not-too-distant future when robots and other technology do most of the dangerous mini ng work..One of the first mining robots was developed five years ago at Carnegie-Mellon University’s Robotics Institute. It was called Groundhog and it looked like a golf cart. It used lasers to “see” in dark tunn els and ma p abandoned mines—some of the most dangerous work in the business.The latest prototype is called Cave Crawler. It’s a bit smaller tha n Groundhog, and even more advanced. It can take photos and video and has sensors mounted that can detect the presence o f dangerous gases. Incredibly, the robot has a real sense of logi c. If it comes across an obstacle it gets momentarily confused, i t has to t hink through the process and where to go next, and sometimes it throws a fit just lik e a real person.The biggest obstacle, though, is cost. The original research proj ect was federally funded, but that money has dried up, and it’s not clear where future funding will come from. Partly for that rea son, and partly because of advances in safety, mining is not ne arly as dangerous as it was in the past. Since 1990, fatalities ha ve declined by 67 percent, and injuries by 51 percent, accordin g to the National Mining Association.Someexperts predict that robots in mines will serve much of the s ame function that they do in the automotive industry. The robots do the most repetitive and dangerous jobs, but don’t eliminate t he need for human workers.5.The latest robot is more advanced than Groundhog mainly because .A. it can map abandoned minesB. the robot has a r eal sense of logicC. it can see in the dark tunnelD. it’s a b it smaller than Groundhog6.We can infer from the last paragraph that .A. the mine robots will have a very bright futureB. robots in mines will serve much in the automotive industryC. there will be no need for human workers in minesD. robots in mines have a long way to go7. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?A. High-profile mining acci dents in America.B. The development of robot.C. Could robots replac e humans in mines?D. Cave Crawler, the latest robot.参考答案 1---4. ADBD 5---7. BAC9(参考答案 BADA)MUMBAI, India —The children in their party clothes on the stage were very excite d when they received the award. And the two of them said, "It’s unbelievable!"Nine-year-old Rubina Ali, and Azharuddin Ismail, 10, were living a very diff erent life and apparently loving every minute of it. The two, som e of the child stars of the Oscar-winning Slumdog Millionaire (《贫民窟的百万富翁》)movie, know the Indian slums very well. That was where t hey grew up, and it is where they will return at the end of their H ollywood dream trip.But before going back home, there was an interview with the ho st, Ryan Seacrest. During the interview they smiled and repeate d their disbelief at what was happening to them. To their surpris e, their movie won the first place in the Oscars. When the two r eceived the award, it was late morning in the children’s home ci ty of Mumbai, where their family, friends and many fellow reside nts of the slums watched the results from Hollywood."I don’t really know what the Oscars are," Rubina’s mother said. "I’m just glad my daughter looks happy, though she told me sh e missed Indian food.""Our children lead a dog’s life," Rubina’s mother said, pointing a t the rubbish everywhere, the open drains (下水道) and the lack of education opportunities.In a few days they will be back in Mumbai and back in the slum s. Fortunately, according to media reports, the movie’s director, Danny Boyle, has promised to help the children he chose from t he slums go to a proper school.The two don’t need to worry about their daily lives because of th e Oscar success of Slumdog Millionaire. But the poverty and la ck of education opportunities —the central theme of the movie —is always all around.1. Which of the following is true about the two children?A. They played a major role in getting India children to receive e ducation.B. They were both excited about receiving the award.C. They were interviewed after they went back home.D. They were the only two child winners of the movie.2.

What will happen to the two children after they return to India ?A. They will stay at home as before.B. They will still worry about their daily lives.C. They will leave school to learn acting.D. They will have a better education.4、 The movie is successful mainly because________.A. it attracts the public attention to an existing social problemB. it has made the two children famousC. the two children will go to a better schoolD. the two children stars in the movie are from India slumsIn-line skating(滚轴溜冰)is a fun sport that everyone can enjoy. Follow these safety tips t o keep skating safe and fun.Step 1: Gear up!Even before you put on your skates, put on all your safety gear (护具).Step 2: Buckle up!Strap(绑紧)on your skates. Make sure they fit well and are snugly(紧贴)around your ankles. This helps your ankles stay strong and stra ight.Step 3: Fall down!You probably do not usually try to fall. But it is good to practice f alling on skates. Fall forward onto your knee pads. Put out your hands and let your wrist guards hit the ground. See? Are you su rprised that it doesn’t hurt?Practice falling until it is easy to fall forward and get up again. If you are not afraid to fall, you will try new things. Knowing how t o fall will help you be a better skater and find your balance. Wh en you can stay balanced, you won’t fall as much.Step 4: Stop!Make sure you can stop on your skates. The quickest and safes t is probably the brake stop. The brake is usually on the back of the right skate.The brake stop:Roll forward with your skates pointing the same way. Let your ri ght skate roll a little forward. Bend your knees as if you are sitti ng down. Then press your right heel down hard. This will make your brake pad drag on the ground until you stop.The T stop:Roll forward with your skates pointing the same way. Then turn your right foot out so the toes are pointing to your right. Drag yo ur right skate. Let the wheels drag on the ground until you come to a stop.Another way to stop is to run or jump onto the grass.Step 5: Roll around!Find a flat, smooth place to practice. Do not skate in streets. Pa rks and playgrounds are good places to practice. Look for “No skating” signs to make sure you can skate there.64. According to the article, which of these steps are most impo rtant for a new skater?A. Learn to fall and stop safely.B. Find a class an d skate fast.C. Relax and have fun.D. Buy expensive gear and skates.65. In the step right after “Buckle up!” you should practice how t o _____________.A. skate fastB. brakeC. fall safelyD. put on gear66. To begin a brake stop, you should let your right skate roll for ward, bend your knees, and ___.A. turn your footB. press your right heel downC. put your wrists out in frontD. tighten your skates67.

It gives step-by-step instructions.***********************************************************结束Teddy Bears have been a very popular children’s toy for many years. Most adults can remember their first stuffed(填充玩具)bear, and over the decades these toys have become nearly a s ymbol of their childhood. However, children are not the only one s with whom these toys have become popular, as many adults make it a habit to collect these toys as well.The Teddy Bear first became popular during the early 20th cent ury and was associated with then President Theodore Roosevel t. The story can date back to a hunting trip that President Roos evelt had taken where he was invited to be the one to shoot a bl ack bear that had been tied to a tree. Being a crazy outdoors lo ver and hunter, Roosevelt refused to kill the animal because he believed that shooting the helpless bear was unsportsmanlike a nd wrong. This story quickly spread through newspapers across the country, and in the end inspired the introduction of a stuffed toy called “Teddy’s bear”.These toys became popular soon after first introduced, and within ten years, they were being produced by dozens of companie s around the world. Within a generation, these stuffed bears we re “the” toy to have, and have always been within children’s toy boxes ever since.They are most often mass-produced in factories in order to keep up with the high demand. However, there are still companies that take great pride in their handmade designs; and while handmade teddy bears are often preferred, they are also generally more expensive than their m ass-produced ones.Today, these bears and other similar toys generate well over a billion dollars a year in profits for the companies that make the m. Walk through just about any toy store in America and you wil l find dozens of different teddy bears lining the shelves.68.

So, too, are health problems linked to b eing overweight.The WHO says a major reason for the rising obesity rates is an increase in imported foods. It says many Pacific islanders have replaced their traditional diets of vegetables and fruits with imported processed foods.Dr.Temu Waqanivalu is with the World Health Organization’s S outh Pacific office in Suva, Fiji.He says many of the imported pr oducts lack nutritional value.Temu Waqanivalu said: “In some of the places, you’d be amaze d to see how a bottle of Coke is cheaper than a bottle of water.I think that represents the kind of offenvironment we’ve created that doesn’t really encourage or make lifestyle choices an easy choice for the population.”And a lack of physical activity among many Pacific islanders onl y adds to the obesity problem.The WHO says more than 50 percent of the population is overw eight in at least ten Pacific island countries. The rate is as high as 80 percent among women in the territory(领地)of American Samoa. Fiji had the lowest obesity rate at 30 perce nt.In all, almost ten million people live in Pacific island countries. T he WHO estimates that about 40 percent of them have health di sorders related to diet and nutrition.Diabetes(糖尿病)rates are among the highest in the world. Forty-seven percent of the people in American Samoa have diabetes. So do 44 percent of the people in Tokelau, a territory of New Zealand.By comparison, the diabetes rate is 13 percent in the United St ates, a country that has its own problems with rising obesity. Officials also note an increase in nutritional problems like anemi a and not enough vitamin A in the diets of Pacific islanders. Dr. Waqanivalu says treating conditions related to obesity and diet puts pressure on limited health resources and budgets.72. The main reason why obesity rates are rising in many Pacific islanders is ________.A. the change of societyB. the change of eating habitsC. the change of life styleD. lack of exercise73. Imported products lack nutritional value but people love to b uy them because they are ____.A. cheapB. popularC. tastyD. convenient to get74.

Positive exper iences will also go into the Child ego state as antique memories. The positive experiences can t hen be drawn on to remind us that positive things do happen.The process of analyzing personality in terms of ego states is called structural analysis. It is imp ortant to remember that ego states do not have an existence of their own. They are concepts to enable understanding. Therefore it is important to say “I want some fun” rather than “My Child w ants some fun.” We may be in our Child ego state when we say this, but saying “I” reminds us t o take responsibility for our actions.1. The writer uses two examples in Paragraph 2 in order to _____.A. support the idea in Paragraph 1B. explain why we become nervousC. prove the Child ego state is negativeD. introduce the point of Paragraph 32. By asking “I wonder what X would say now”, we intend to __________.A. blame ourselvesB. accept challengesC. keep up with everythingD. avoid stress3. According to the passage, the Child ego state __________.A. shows one’s wisdomB. influences one’s actionsC. limits one’s thoughtsD. exists in one’s childhood4. The underlined word “this” in the last paragraph refers to __________.A. structural analysisB. “My Child wants some fun”C. the Child ego stateD. “I want some fun”*************************BThe Cave Crawler mining robotWhy do human beings still risk their lives under ground and doing one of the dirtiest and most dangerous jobs in the world? It’s an increasingly urgent question,given the recent high-profile(引人注目的)mining accidents in Sago, W. Va., and Huntin gton, Utah. A small group of engineers and robotics experts envision(展望)a day in the not-too-distant future when robots and other tec hnology do most of the dangerous mini ng work..One of the first mining r obots was developed five years ago at Carnegie-Mellon University’s Robotics Institute. It was called Groundhog and it looked like a golf cart. It used lasers to “see” in dark tunnels and ma p abandoned mines—some of the most dangerous work in the business.The latest prototype is called Cave Crawler. It’s a bit smaller than Groundhog, and even more a dvanced. It can take photos and video and has sensors mounted that can detect the presence o f dangerous gases. Incredibly, the robot has a real sense of logic. If it comes across an obstacleit gets momentarily confused, it has to t hink through the process and where to go next, and sometimes it throws a fit just like a real person.The biggest obstacle, though, is cost. The original research project was federally funded, but th at money has dried up, and it’s not clear where future funding will come from. Partly for that rea son, and partly because of advances in safety, mining is not nearly as dangerous as it was in th e past. Since 1990, fatalities have declined by 67 percent, and injuries by 51 percent, according to the National Mining Association.Someexperts predict that robots in mines will serve much of the same function that they do in th e automotive industry. The robots do the most repetitive and dangerous jobs, but don’t eliminate the need for human workers.5.The latest robot is more advanced than Groundhog mai nly because .A. it can map abandoned minesB. the robot has a r eal sense of logicC. it can see in the dark tunnelD. it’s a b it smaller than Groundhog6.We can infer from the last paragraph that .A. the mine robots will have a very bright futureB. robots in mines will serve much in the automotive industryC. there will be no need for human workers in minesD. robots in mines have a long way to go7. Which of the follow ing can be the best title of this passage?A. High-profile mining acci dents in America.B. The development of robot.C. Could robots replac e humans in mines?D. Cave Crawler, the latest robot.参考答案 1---4. ADBD 5---7. BAC9(参考答案 BADA)MUMBAI, India —The children in their party clothes on the stage were very excited when they received the award. And the two of them said, "It’s unbelievable!"Nine-year-old Rubina Ali, and Azharuddin Ismail, 10, were living a very different life and apparently loving every minute of it. The two, some of the child stars of the Oscar-winning Slumdog Millionaire (《贫民窟的百万富翁》)movie, know the Indian slums very well. That was where they grew up, and it is where they will return at the end of their Hollywood dream trip.But before going back home, there was an interview with the host, Ryan Seacrest. During the in terview they smiled and repeated their disbelief at what was happening to them. To their surpris e, their movie won the first place in the Oscars. When the two received the award, it was late m orning in the children’s home city of Mumbai, where their family, friends and many fellow reside nts of the slums watched the results from Hollywood."I don’t really know what the Oscars are," Rubina’s mother said. "I’m just glad my daughter looks happy, though she told me she missed Indian food.""Our children lead a dog’s life," Rubina’s mother said, pointing at the rubbish everywhere, the o pen drains (下水道) and the lack of education opportunities.In a few days they will be back in Mumbai and back in the slums. Fortunately, according to medi a reports, the movie’s director, Danny Boyle, has promised to help the children he chose from th e slums go to a proper school.The two don’t need to worry about their daily lives because of the Oscar success of Slumdog Mi llionaire. But the poverty and lack of education opportunities —the central theme of the movie —is always all around.1. Which of the following is true about the two children?A. They played a major role in getting India children to receive education.B. They were both excited about receiving the award.C. They were interviewed after they went back home.D. They were the only two child winners of the movie.2. When the children attended the Oscar ceremony in Hollywood, their family and friends were _ ________.A. watching TV in MumbaiB. doing what they did as usualC. seeing the movie Slumdog MillionaireD. having a family party3. What will happen to the two children after they return to India?A. They will stay at home as before.B. They will still worry about their daily lives.C. They will leave school to learn acting.D. They will have a better education.4、 The movie is successful mainly because________.A. it attracts the public attention to an existing social problemB. it has made the two children famousC. the two children will go to a better schoolD. the two children stars in the movie are from India slumsIn-line skating(滚轴溜冰)is a fun sport that everyone can enjoy. Follow these safety tips to keep skating safe and fun. Step 1: Gear up!Even before you put on your skates, put on all your safety gear(护具).Step 2: Buckle up!Strap(绑紧)on your skates. Make sure they fit well and are snugly(紧贴)around your ankles. This helps your ankles stay strong and straight.Step 3: Fall down!You probably do not usually try to fall. But it is good to practice falling on skates. Fall forward on to your knee pads. Put out your hands and let your wrist guards hit the ground. See? Are you su rprised that it doesn’t hurt?Practice falling until it is easy to fall forward and get up again. If you are not afraid to fall, you wil l try new things. Knowing how to fall will help you be a better skater and find your balance. Whe n you can stay balanced, you won’t fall as much.Step 4: Stop!Make sure you can stop on your skates. The quickest and safest is probably the brake stop. Th e brake is usually on the back of the right skate.The brake stop:Roll forward with your skates pointing the same way. Let your right skate roll a little forward. Be nd your knees as if you are sitting down. Then press your right heel down hard. This will make y our brake pad drag on the ground until you stop.The T stop:Roll forward with your skates pointing the same way. Then turn your right foot out so the toes ar e pointing to your right. Drag your right skate. Let the wheels drag on the ground until you come to a stop.Another way to stop is to run or jump onto the grass.Step 5: Roll around!Find a flat, smooth place to practice. Do not skate in streets. Parks and playgrounds are good pl aces to practice. Look for “No skating” signs to make sure you can skate there.64. According to the article, which of these steps are most important for a new skater?A. Learn to fall and stop safely.B. Find a class and skate fast.C. Relax and have fun.D. Buy expensive gear and skates.65. In the step right after “Buckle up!” you should practice how to _____________.A. skate fastB. brakeC. fall safelyD. put on gear66. To begin a brake stop, you should let your right skate roll forward, bend your knees, and ___ .A. turn your footB. press your right heel downC. put your wrists out in frontD. tighten your skates67. How is the passage organized?A. It tells stories about skating.B. It gives descriptions of skates.C. It uses a question-and-answer form.D. It gives step-by-step instructions.***********************************************************结束Teddy Bears have been a very popular children’s toy for many years.

Study author Brent Cok er said, “Surfing the Internet at times helps increase an employ ee’s attention.”“People need to relax for a bit to get back their attention,” Co ker said on the university’s website. “Having a short break, such as a quick surfing of the Internet, helps the mind to rest itself, leading to a higher total Internet attention for a day’s work, and as a result, increases productivity(生产效率),”he said.According to the study of 300 workers, 70 percent of people who use the Internet at work surf the Internet for their own reas ons during office hours. Among the most popular surfing activiti es are searching for information about products, reading online news, playing online games and watching videos. “Firms spend a lot of money on software to block their employees from watch ing video, using social networking sites or shopping online,” sai d Coker. “That’s not always a good idea.”However, Coker said the study looked at people who surfed t he Internet in moderation (适度), or were on the Internet for less than 20 percent of their total time in the office. “Those who spend too much time surfing the Internet will have a lower productivity than those without,” he sa id.51.

2014高考英语完形填空专题训练精品题(99)及答案C5[2013·新课标全国卷Ⅰ]--——-CIt happened to me recently.I was telling someone how much I had enjoyed reading Barack Obama's Dreams From My Father and how it had changed my views of our President。

A friend I was talking to agreed with me that it was,in his words,“a brilliantly(精彩地)written book”.However,he then went on to talk about Mr Obama in a way which suggested he had no idea of his background at all。

I sensed that I was talking to a book liar.And it seems that my friend is not the only one。

Approximately two thirds of people have lied about reading a book which they haven't.In the World Book Day’s “Report on Guilty Secrets”,Dreams From My Father is at number 9。

The report lists ten books,and various authors,which people have lied ab out reading,and as I’m not one to lie too often (I'd hate to be caught out),I’ll admit here and now that I haven't read the entire top ten.But I am pleased to say that,unlike 42 percent of people,I have read the book at number one,George Orwell’s 1984。

Beehives (蜂窝)-either recorded or real-may even prevent elephants from damaging farmer's crops.In 2002, scientist Lucy King and her team found that elephants avoid certain trees with bees living in them. Today, Lucy wants to see if African honeybees might discourage elephants from eating crops. But before she asked farmer to go to the trouble of setting up beehives on their farms, she needed to find out if the bees would scare elephants away.Lucy found a wild beehive inside a tree in northern Kenya and set up a recorder. Then she threw a stone into the beehive, which burst into life. Lucy and her assistant hid in their car until the angry bees had calmed down. Next ,Lucy searched out elephant families in Samburu National Reserve in northern Kenya and put a speaker in a close to each family.From a distance, Lucy switched on the pre-recorded sound of angry bees while at the same time recording the elephants with a video camera. Half the elephant groups left the area within ten seconds. Out of a total of 17 groups, only one group ignored the sound of the angry bees. Lucy reported that all the young elephants immediately ran to their mothers to hide under them. When Lucy Played the sound of a waterfall (瀑布) instead of the angry bees to many of the same elephant families, the animals were undisturbed. Even after four minutes, most of the groups stayed in one place.Lucy is now studying whether the elephants will continue to avoid the sound of angry bees after hearing it several times. She hasn't tested enough groups yet to know, but her initial (最初的) results were promising enough to begin trials with farmers. She has now begun placing speakers in the fields to see if elephants are frightened away.D.60.
