2016浙江省高考英语二轮练习：阅读理解(3)解析答案
2016浙江省高考英语二轮练习：阅读理解（3）解析答案写人记事（阅读理解）Some years ago,writing in my diary used to be a usual activity.I would return from school and spend the expected half hour recording the day’s events,feelings,and impressions in my little blue diary.I did not really need to express my emotions by way of words,but I gained a certain satisfaction from seeing my experiences forever recorded on paper.After all,isn’t accumulating memories a way of preserving the past?When I was thirteen years old,I went on a long journey on foot in a great valley,well-equipped with pens,a diary,and a camera.During the trip,I was busy recording every incident,name and place I came across.I felt proud to be spending my time productively,dutifully preserving for future generations a detailed description of my travels.On my last night there,I wandered out of my tent,diary in hand.The sky was clear and lit by the glare of the moon,and the walls of the valley looked threatening behind their screen of shadows.I automatically took out my pen...At that point,I understood that nothing I wrote could ever match or replace the few seconds I allowed myself to experience the dramatic beauty of the valley.All I remembered of the previous few days were the dull characterizations I had set down in my diary.Now,I only write in my diary when I need to write down a special thought or feeling.I still love to record ideas and quotations that strike me in books,or observations that are particularly meaningful.I take pictures,but not very often—only of objects I fin d really beautiful.I’m no longer blindly satisfied with having something to remember when I grow old.I realize that life will simply pass me by if I stay behind the camera,busy preserving the present so as to live it in the future.I don’t want to wake up one day and have nothing but a pile of pictures and notes.Maybe I won’t have as many exact representations of people and places; maybe I’ll forget certain facts,but at least the experiences will always remain inside me.I don’t live to make memories—I just live,and the memories form themselves.1.Before the age of thirteen,the author regarded keeping a diary as a way of .A.observing her school routineB.expressing her satisfactionC.impressing her classmatesD.preserving her history2.What caused a change in the author’s understanding of keeping a diary?()A.A dull night on the journey.B.The beauty of the great valley.C.A striking quotation from a book.D.Her concerns for future generations.3.What does the author put in her diary now?()A.Notes and beautiful pictures.B.Special thoughts and feelings.C.Detailed accounts of daily activities.D.Descriptions of unforgettable events.4.The author comes to realize that to live a meaningful life is .A.to experience itB.to live the present in the futureC.to make memoriesD.to give accurate representations of it语篇解读:本文为记叙文。

water and soap to wash hands, containers, and surfaces that come into contact(接触) withthe food.Don' t put your hands near your mouth until you' ve washed them, and don' t allow yourpet to touch your face right after it has eaten meat.If owners choose to feed bones to their pets, they should watch their pet carefully when it iseating bones.Burk also says, "If the pet eats a big piece of bone that

sky that move so quickly that sometimes you only see them outof the comer of your eye.These are some of the huge number of bits of rock and dust that are floating around in space, called meteoroids.Normally, we cannot see them at all, but if they travel tooclose to the Earth, they get caught by the pull of the Earth, and begin to fall towards us.They fallfaster and faster, until they hit our atmosphere (大气层), by which time they are going so fast thatthey begin to bum up, and all that you see is a flash of light that moves very quickly across the skyand disappears.These shooting stars, or meteors as they are properly called, are quite common,and sometimes you may see several in a night.Most meteoroids are very small bits indeed, and they bum up long before they get to theEarth.However, a very few do manage to get all the way through the atmosphere, and actually fallto the ually they do not do much damage, although this is not always the case.Meteoroids that

market like this in 25 years," says travel expert Peter Greenberg."Everything is on sale.Even the high end of the market is quietly offering add-ons: a free night here, aspa(水疗) pass there."In a bad economy, this comes as good news for many.Whether you want to fly across thecountry or drive across the state line, here are places that offer plenty to do.For anyone who can' t bear to sit still, big cities are the best choice for weekend trips.Zero inon cities that attract business travelers during the week.The big-name hotels empty out on theweekends and will give tourists a better deal.Chicago, Illinois: One of America' s best-looking city centers, especially in the spring andsummer.Spend a sunny day in Millennium Park, or consider an evening at Grant Achatz' s Alinearestaurant in Lincoln Park.Las Vegas, Nevada: It' s never been so easy to score a deal on the Strip.Five-star hotels aremarked down to three-star prices.Book a luxury suite (豪华套房)for $89 a night at .San Francico,

山东济南市2016高考英语二轮阅读理解新编【3】及答案
山东济南市2016高考英语二轮阅读理解新编【3】及答案［2014·高三模拟］Text messages，emails and using computers to learn could be stunting(抑制）children’s vocabulary，experts fear。
That is because our brains are hard。
wired to learn new words when we hear others use them in everyday conversation。
But learning with smartphones, tablets and computers, instead of listening to a teacher or parent, means young people are not being given the chance to hear a wide range of words. The oral tradition of passing on knowledge is being eroded, with both adults and children spending too much time looking at screens。
Marco Catani, of the Institute of Psychiatry，said, “We have less time to talk to each other and our children are taught through devices。
They have access to the Internet, iPhones，mobile phones and tablet computers. These are visual rather than auditory, so it is likely that they will end up with a lower average number of words than previous generations." Constant computer use has been blamed in the past for shorter attention spans，a culture of instant gratification and making young people more self。
2016英语二text3
2016英语二text3第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节(共15题：每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
CReading can be a social activity.Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them.Now,the website turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book.Then the person leaves it in a public place,hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson,the managing director of BookCrossing,says,“The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read.BookCrossing combines both.”Members leave books on park benches and buses,in train stations and coffee shops.Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it.E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found.Bruce Peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the“real”and not the virtual(虚拟).The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.29.Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?A.To explain what they are.B.To introduce BookCrossing.C.To stress the importance of reading.D.To encourage readers to share their ideas.30.What does the underlined word“it”in Paragraph2refer to?A.The book.B.An adventure.C.A public place.D.The identification number.31.What will a BookCrosser do with a book after reading it?A.Meet other readers to discuss it.B.Keep it safe in his bookcase.C.Pass it on to another reader.D.Mail it back to its owner.32.What is the best title for the text?A.Online Reading:A Virtual TourB.Electronic Books:A new TrendC.A Book Group Brings Tradition BackD.A Website Links People through Books。
2015年英语(一)真题阅读理解text 3详解
2015年英语（一）真题阅读理解text 3详解阅读理解的第三篇属于非理科专业学生不太熟悉的话题——统计数据检查和同行评审，但是好在生词量不大，虽然有专有名词，也可以忽略。
难点体现在考察得比较细，同学们需要细心看才能做正确。
第31题，It can be learned from Paragraph 1 that______.(从第一段可以看出什么)。
还是问的主要内容，那么根据西方人的思维和写作习惯，主要的和重要的都在前面，因此，重点是读第一句话。
The journal Science is adding an extra round of statistical checks to…(科学杂志在…基础上增加了另外一轮统计数据检查)。
对比答案，只有B选项journals are strengthening their statistical checks.提到了加强统计数据检查。
但是答案中说的journals,(许多期刊杂志)，文中第一句是The journal Science,可能一些同学会心存疑惑，文中第二句就提到了The policy follows similar efforts from other journals,(这个做法是效仿其他杂志的做法)，说明很多杂志都这样做了。
第32题，The phrase “flagged up ”(Para.2)is the closest in meaning to _____.(文中第二段的flagged up是什么意思)。
要推断be flagged up的含义需要结合上下文，原文是Manuscript will be flagged up for additional scrutiny(附加的详细审阅) by…(某团体), or by…(某些人),or by…(某群人).句子的意思是手稿要被...或…或…进行附加的详细审阅。
表示“要”怎么样。
Be marked for 字面意思为“被标记为”，其实含义就是“以…为特征，要…样”。

Experts believe that storms and severe weather in North Ame rica and Asia have disrupted bird flight paths across the world and swept huge numbers of bird species towards the British I sles.Birds flying to the other side of the Atlantic or to the Pacific to l ay their eggs have been trapped in Britain and , adding their n umbers to native species, and causing great excitement in the bird-watching community.Local birdwatchers have already observed a total of 442 speci es in the British Isles this year. The highest number ever seen in one year is 445, in 2008.“We only need four more to break our record,” said Lee Evans , who runs the British Birding Association. “With three months to go I’m sure we’ll do it.”Last month an extremely rare Siberian Rubythroat bird was se en in , sending hundreds of birdwatchers north in the hope ofcatching a glimpse of this colourful Asian beauty. Another ver y uncommon bird, the bufflehead duck was cited in Cornwell a nd caused similar excitement. “I couldn’t believe it,” said Evan s. “The poor thing was completely knackered. It must have be en blown to England by the storms while trying to fly from Can ada to the southern for the winter. That’s 3000 miles!”Evans said that global warming over the past decade was pla ying a key role in transforming bird movements across the wo rld. In addition, melting Arctic sea ice may also be opening up bird flight paths over the North Pole, making it easier for birds from the Pacific — such as the slaty-backed gull and tufted puffin, both of which appeared in Lond on earlier this year — to reach Britain.Bird-watching is becoming an increasingly popular hobby among a ll age groups, added Evans. “A fifth of our members are under 18. This is a round-the-year hobby that you can enjoy from the kitchen window or fro m a car. More and more people are bird-watching, and as a result more and more unexpected species are being spotted in the British Isles.”1. What is the passage mainly about?A. The results of global warming.B. Changes in the British bird population.C. Increasing environmental pollution.D. Worsening British weather.2. The underlined word “knackered” is closest in meaning to _ _________.A. boredB. knockedC. spottedD. tired3. How many more bird species are needed to equal the British bird-watching record?A. 3.B. 4.C. 442.D. 445.4. According to the passage, which of the following birds com es from Asia?A. Slaty-backed gull. B. Bufflehead. C. Rubythroat.D. Tufted puffin.5. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a possible rea son for seeing more bird species in ?A. An increase in the number of birdwatchers.B. A growth in the number of native species.C. Storms due to global warming.D. The melting Arctic ice cap.【参考答案】1—5、BDACB阅读理解。

2016湖北枣阳市高考英语二轮教育类阅读理解选练（3）及答案2016高考英语阅读理解——教育类My students often tell me they don’t have “enough time” to do all their schoolwork. My reply is often brief –You have as much time as the president. I usually carry on a bit about there being 24 hours per day for everyone, and suggest that “not enough time” is not an acceptable explanation of not getting something done.Once in graduate school, I tried to justify myself to one of my professors by saying that I was working. His answer to me was, “That’s irrelevant. What’s important is the quality of your work.” Since then I have had time to reflect on the “hard worker” dodge(伎俩), and I have come to some conclusions – all relevant to the issue of how much time we have.If you look at the matter analytically, you can identify two parts of the problem. There is, of course, the matter of “time”, which we can think of as fixed. Then there is the issue of “work” during that time, which can vary in intensity. But, as my professor suggested, it’s not diligenc e but the quality of the product that is important.That led me to a new idea, the quality of work. That concept is perhaps best explained by a sign I once saw on the wall in someone’s office –Don’t work harder but work smarter! There’s a lot of sense in that idea.If you can’t get more time, and few of us can, the only solution is to improve the quality of work. That means thinking of ways of getting more out of the same time than we might otherwise get. That should lead us to an analysis of our wo rk habits. Since “work” for students usually means “homework”, the expression “work habits” should be read as “learning habits”.Then, as a smart student, you will seek to improve those skills that you use in study, chiefly reading and writing. If you learn to read better and write better, there are big benefits that pay off across the board in all your studies.【小题1】From the passage, we know that the author is _____.A．a poet B．an educatorC．an editor D．a director【小题2】We can infer from the first two paragraph that we students _____.A．have enough time B．can meet the presidentC．get something done well D．should accept the explanation【小题3】The underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 means _____.A．That is impossible B．That is not importantC．That is unbearable D．That is not acceptable【小题4】The main purpose of writing the passage is to give _____.A．information B．encouragementC．criticism D．advice2016高考英语阅读理解——教育类It’s so difficult to follow the ups and downs of a 2-year-old. One moment he’s beaming and friendly; the next he’s sullen（愠怒的）and weepy, often for no apparent reason. These mood swings, however, are just part of growing up. They are signs of the emotional changes taking place as your child struggles to take control of actions, impulses, feelings and his body.At this age, your child wants to explore the world and seek adventure. As a result, he’ll spend most of his time testing limits, his own, yours and his environments. Unfortunately, he still lacks many of the skills required for the safe accomplishment of everything he needs to do, and he often will need you to protect him.When he oversteps a limit and is pulled back, he often reacts with anger and frustration, possibly with a temper tantrum (发脾气). He may even strike back by hitting, biting and kicking. At this age, he doesn’t have much control over his emotional impulse (冲动). So his anger and frustration tend to erupt suddenly in the form of cry ing, hitting or screaming. It’s his only way of dealing with the difficult realities of life. He may even act out in ways that unintentionally harmhimself or others. It’s all part of being 2.It’s not uncommon for toddlers to be angels when you’re not around, because they don’t trust people enough to test their limits. But with you, your toddler will be willing to try things that may be dangerous or difficult, because he knows you’ll rescue him if he gets into trouble.Whatever protest pattern he has developed around the end of his first year will probably persist for some time. For instance, when you’re about to leave him with a sitter, he may become angry and throw a tantrum in anticipation (预想) of the separation. Or he may cry and cling to you. Or he could simply become subdued and silent. Whatever his behavior, try not to overreact by scolding or punishing him. The best tactic(策略) is to reassure him before you leave that you will be back and, when you return, to praise him for being so patient while you are gone. Take comfort in the fact that separations should be much easier by the time he’s 3 years old.【小题1】The “ups and downs” (Para. 1) of a 2-year-old refers to ________.A．his falling down and standing upB．his successes and failures in doing thingsC．his good and bad traitsD．his mood swings【小题2】A 2-year-old still lacks all of the following EXCEPT _____________.A．signs that express his emotional changesB．skills necessary for accomplishing certain thingsC．control over his emotional impulsesD．good methods of dealing with the difficult realities of life【小题3】Which of the following is true?A．A 2-year-old doesn’t know how to express his anger and frustration.B．A 2-year-old often intentionally harms himself or others.C．A 2-year-old depends on his parents to do everything new and challenging.D．A 2-year-old trusts his parents more than other people【小题4】When a mother is about to separate with her baby, she’d better __________.

''If you can see the magic in a fairytale童话）, you can face the future”-- Danielle SteelWho have not read fairytales? We all have had the experience of taking great delight in the beauty and innocence of fairytales．May it be Cinderella or Sleeping Beauty．．．Fairytale is a word which cannot be new to us. But have you ever travelled ages back to the earliest of times and uncovered the fascinating facts about these stories?The history of the fairytale is particularly difficult to track．The oral tradition of the fairytale came long before the written page．The oldest known fairytales date back to ancient Egypt around 1300B.C.and now, after travelling through various periods of time, they have grown and matured in various aspects and have become the most popular forms of stories for young childrenThe characters and themes of fairytales are simple and similar: Princesses and goose girls, youngest sons and brave princes, wicked, stepmothers, fairy godmothers, talking animals, glass mountains, witches, castles and the like. The tale goes into an unreal world and in this never-never land our heroes kill the enemy, succeed to kingdoms and marry the ever beautiful princesses. W. H Auden said, “The way to read a fairytale is to throw yourself in.” It is very true indeed or you will not be able to feel the ecstasy of reading a fairytale. So whenever you read a fairytale, imagine you are the hero/heroine and you will be carried to a mysterious land where everything will be as you want. Every child believes in fairies（仙女), dragons, etc. Yet, as we grow up we fail to believe in these fantasy-based characters．Fairytales are told to children when they are young. This is very essential indeed, for if in the beginning of our lives, our minds are touched by the beauty, innocence and the morals in these tales, we will be able to obtain the optimistic side of happenings．In life, sometimes, believing in such mystics can lead to great happiness．Well, I don’t know about you, but I do believe in fairies…and who knows I may someday meet one because, after all, believing is just the beginning! And as J.M. Barries said, “When you say I don’t believe in fairies, a fairy somewhere drops dead.” And I wouldn’t want anyone dead on my account, would you?1．In Paragraph 1, the writer mentioned Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty to __A．tell the beauty and innocence of the fairytalesB．present us the fascinating facts behind themC．show us that fairytales are something we are familiar withD．describe his feeling towards fairytales2．The underlined word '"ecstasy" in Paragraph 3 probably means “___”A．delight B．innocenceC．mystery D．the optimistic side3．Why is it important to tell the fairytales to the children when young?A．Because they can gain great happiness．B．Because it is easier for the children to throw themselves in the roleC．Because they tend to have wild imaginationD．Because when they see the magic in the tales in the beginning, they can face the future 4．How do you understand the sentence in the last paragraph "When you say I don't believe in fairies, a fairy somewhere drops dead.” ?A．If you don’t believe in the tales, the fairy will be really sad．B．We need the beauty, innocence, and moral of the fairytales to stay optimistic．C．If nobody believes in us, we will be heartbroken．D．The writer is just trying to be humorous by saying this．参考答案1—4、CADB阅读理解。

浙江桐庐县2016高考英语（二轮）阅读理解能力训练（3）及答案2016高考英语阅读理解--政治经济文化类13、With all the wars，fighting and sadness in the world today, it’s not only necessary, but also essential to have a good sense of humor just to help us get through each and every day of our lives. Putting a smile on someone's face when you know they are feeling down in the dumps （处于沮丧中), as the saying goes，makes me feel good and warms my heart.How would you feel if you could not joke around with your wife，husband, child, co-worker，neighbor，close friend，or even just someone that you are standing in line with at your corner store？I am always saying things that make others smile or laugh, even if I don't know the person I’m joking around with。
My Grandma always found humor in everything she did, even if it was the hardest job anyone could imagine. This not only relieves stress in any situation，but also is common courtesy (礼貌）to speak to others that are around you。

2015 Text 3（英语⼆）办公室语⾔的起源Even in traditional offices, "the of corporate America has gotten much more emotional and much more right-brained than it was 20 years ago," said professor Nancy Koehn.She started spinning off examples."If you and I parachuted back to Fortune 500 companies in 1990, we would see much less frequent use of terms like journey, mission, passion.There were goals, there were strategies, there were objectives, but we didn't talk about energy; we didn't talk about passion."Koehn pointed out that this new era of corporate vocabulary is very "team"-oriented —and not by coincidence.Let's not forget sports — in male-dominated corporate America, it's still a big deal.It's not explicitly conscious; it's the idea that I'm a coach, and you're my team, and we're in this together.There are lots and lots of CEOs in very different companies, but most think of themselves as coaches and this is their team and they want to win."These terms are also intended to infuse work with meaning—and, as Khurana points lingua franca Harvard Business School 哈佛商学院教授南希·科恩说道，即使是在传统的办公室，“美国企业的通⽤语已变得⽐⼆⼗年前更有感染⼒和更有创造性。
