高中英语真题:2016高考英语阅读理解选练（3）阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

Food sometimes gets poisoned with harmful things. A person who eats such food can get an illness called food poisoning. F ood poisoning is usually not serious, but some types are dead ly. The symptoms of food poisoning usually begin within hours of eating the poisoned food. Fever is one of the most commo n symptoms.Certain microorganisms(微生物) cause most types of food poisoning. Bacteria and other mi croorganisms can poison eggs, meat, vegetables, and many other foods. After entering the body, these tiny living things rel ease(释放) poisons that make people sick.Some chemicals can also cause food poisoning. They are oft en added to food while it is being grown, processed, or prepar ed. For example, many farmers spray chemicals on crops to k ill weeds and insects. Some people may have a bad reaction t o those chemicals when they eat the crops.Some plants and animals contain natural poisons that are har mful to people. These include certain kinds of seafood, grains, nuts, seeds, beans, and mushrooms.When people handle food properly, the risk of food poisoning i s very small. Microorganisms multiply rapidly in dirty places a nd in warm temperatures. This means that people should nev er touch food with dirty hands or put food on unwashed surfac es. Food should be kept in a refrigerator to stop microorganis ms from growing. Meat needs to be cooked thoroughly to kill any dangerous microorganisms. People should also wash foo d covered with chemicals before eating it. Finally, people sho uld not eat wild mushrooms or other foods that grow in the wil d. Some of these foods may contain natural materials that are poisonous to humans. In addition, some types of fish can be poisonous.Most people recover from food poisoning after a few days of r esting and drinking extra water. If people eat natural poisons, they must go to the hospital right away to have their stomachs emptied.1. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Food when poisoned can make people sick.B. Food pois oning means death.C. Food poisoning comes in varieties.D. Food poisoning canbe serious.2. We know from the passage that the symptoms of food pois oning .A. are always accompanied by a feverB. are too common to be notedC. can be noticed within hoursD. can be ignored3. Food poisoning can be caused by all the following EXCEPT .A. some chemicalsB. low temperaturesC. some tiny living thingsD. certain natural materials4. From Paragraph 5, we can learn that .A. mushrooms should not be eatenB. vegetables are safer than meat and seafoodC. natural poisons are more dangerous than chemicalsD. different types of food should be handled differently5. It can be inferred from the passage that .A. natural materials are safe in food processingB. chemicals are needed in food processingC. food poisoning can be kept under controlD. food poisoning is out of control【参考答案】1--5 、BCBDC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。

ADear Alfred，I want to tell you how important your help is to my life.Growing up, I had people telling me I was too slow, though, with an IQ of 150 at 17, I‘m anything but stupid. The fact was that I was found to have ADIID(注意力缺陷多动障碍). Anxious all the time, I was unable to keep focused for more than an hour at a time.However, when something did interest me, I could become absorbed. In high school, I became curious about the computer, and built my first website. Moreover, I completed the senior course of Computer Basics, plus five relevant pre-college courses.While I was exploring my curiosity, my disease got worse. I wanted to go to college after high school, but could n‘t . So, I was killing my time at home until June 2012 when I discovered the online computer courses of your training center.Since then, I have taken courses like Data Science and Advanced Mathematics. Currently, I‘m learning your Probability course. I have hundreds of printer paper, covered in self-written notes from your video. This has given me a purpose.Last year, I spent all my time looking for a job where, without dealing with the public , I could work alone, but still have a team to talk to. Luckily, I discovered the job—Data Analyst—this month and have been going full steam ahead. I want to prove that I can teach myself a respectful profession, without going to college, and be just as good as, if not better than, my competitors. 学科&网Thank you. You‘ve given me hope that I can follow my heart. For the first time, I feel good about myself because I‘m doing something, not because someone told me I was doing good. I feel新东方在线高考网（/）网友分享whole.This is why you‘re saving my life.Yours,Tanis56. why did‘t Tanis go to college after high school?( B)A.She had learned enough about computer scienceB. She had more difficulty keeping foucesedC.She preferred taking online coursesD.She was too slow to learn57.

Living just a few blocks from the beach, Natalie can see the o cean and hear the waves from her house. ―It‘s the ocean that makes Rockaway so special,‖ she says.On October 29, 2012, that ocean turned fierce. That night, Hurricane Sandy attacked the East Coast, and Rockaway was hit especially hard. Fortunately, Natali e‘s family escaped to Brooklyn shortly before the city‘s bridges closed.新东方在线高考网（/）网友分享When they returned to Rockaway the next day, they found their neighborhood in ruins. Many of Natalie‘s friends had lost their homes and were living far away. All around her, people we re suffering, especially the elderly. Natalie‘s school was so damaged that she had to temporarily attend a school in Brooklyn.In the following few days, the men and women helping Rockaway recover inspired Natalie. V olunteers came with carloads of donated clothing and toys. Neighbors devoted their spare time to helping others rebuild. Teenagers climbed dozens of flights of stairs to deliver water and food to elderly people trapped in powerless high-rise buildings.―My mom tells me that I can‘t control what happens to me,‖ Natalie says. ―but I can always choose how I deal with it.‖Natalie‘s choice was to help.She created a website page matching survivors in need with donors who wanted to halp. Natalie posted introduction about a boy named Patrick, who lost his baseball card collecting when his house burned down. Within days, Patrick‘s collection was replaced.In the coming months, her website page helped lots of kids: Christopher, who received a new basketball; Charlie, who got a new keyboard. Natalie also worked with other organizations to bring much-need supplies to Rockaway. Her efforts made her a famous person. Last April, she was invited to the White House and honored as a Hurricane Sandy Champion of Change.Today, the scars(创痕)of destruction are still seen in Rockaway, but hope is in the air. The streets are clear, and many homes have been rebuilt. ―I can‘t imagine living anywhere but Rockaway,‖ Natalie declares. ―My neighborhood will be back, even stronger than before.‖59.When Natalie returned to Rockaway after the hurricane ,she found___ B ___.A.some friends had lost their livesB.her neighborhood was destroyedC.her school had moved to BrooklynD.the elderly were free from suffering60.According to paragraph4,who inspired Natalie most?( A)A.The people helping Rockaway rebuild新东方在线高考网（/）网友分享B.The people trapped in high_rise buildingsC.The volunteers donating money to suevivorsD.Local teenagers bringing clothing to elderly people61.How did Natalie help the survivors?( D)A.She gave her toys to other kidsB.She took care of younger childrenC.She called on the White House to helpD.She built an information sharing platform62.What does the story intend to tell us?( A)A.Little people can make a big differenceB.A friend in need is a friend indeedC.East or west,home is bestD.Technology is powerCCalifornia Condor’s Shocking RecoveryCalifornia condors are North America‘s largest birds, with wind-length of up to 3 meters. In the 1980s, electrical lines and lead poisoning(铅中毒) nearly drove them to dying out. Now, electric shock training and medical treatment are helping to rescue these big birds.In the late 1980s, the last few condors were taken from the wild to be bred(繁殖).Since 1992,there have been multiple reintroductions to the wild, and there are now more than 150 flying over California and nearby Arizona, Utah and Baja in Mexico.Electrical lines have been killing them off. ―As they go in to rest for the night, they just don‘t see the power lines,‖ says Bruce Rideout of San Diego Zoo. Their wings can bridge th e gap between lines, resulting in electrocution(电死) if they touch two lines at once.So scientists have come up with a shocking idea. Tall poles, placed in large training areas, teach the birds to stay clear of electrical lines by giving them a painful but undeadly electric shock. Before the training was introduced, 66% of set-free birds died of electrocution. This has now dropped to 18%.新东方在线高考网（/）网友分享Lead poisoning has proved more difficult to deal with. When condors eat dead bodies of other animals containing lead, they absorb large quantities of lead. This affects their nervous systems and ability to produce baby birds, and can lead to kidney(肾) failures and death. So condors with high levels of lead are sent to Los Angeles Zoo, where they are treated with calcium EDTA, a chemical that removes lead from the blood over several days. This work is starting to pay off. The annual death rate for adult condors has dropped from 38% in 2000 to 5.4% in 2011.Rideout‘s team thinks that the California condors‘ average survival time in the wild is now just under eight years. ―Although these measures are not effective forever, they are vital for now,‖h e says. ―They are truly good birds that are worth every effort we put into recovering them. ‖63.California condors attract researchers‘ interest because they . (D)A.are active at nightB.had to be bred in the wildC.are found on in CaliforniaD.almost died out in the 1980s64. Researchers have found electrical lines are .( B)A.blocking condors‘ journey homeB. big killers of Califorbnia condorsC. rest places for condors at nightD. used to keep condors away65.According to Paraghaph 5 ,lead poisoning .( D)A.makes condors too nervous to flyB. has little effect on condors‘ kidneysC. can hardly be gotten rid of form condors‘ bloodD. makes it different for condors to produce baby birds66.The passage shows that .( C)A.the average survival time of condors is satisfactoryB.Rideout‘s research interest lies in electric engineeringC.the efforts to protect condors have brought good results新东方在线高考网（/）网友分享D.researchers have found the final answers to the problemDWhy College Is Not HomeThe college years are supposed to be a time for important growth in autonomy(自主性) and the development of adult identity. However, now they are becoming an extended period of adolescence, during which many of today‘s students are not shouldered with adult responsibilities.For previous generations, college was decisive break from parental control; guidance and support needed help from people of the same age and from within. In the past two decades, however, continued connection with and dependence on family, thanks to cell phones, email and social media, have increased significantly. Some parents go so far as to help with coursework. Instead of promoting the idea of college as a passage from the shelter of the family to autonomy and adult responsibility, universities have given in to the idea that they should provide the same environment as that of the home.To prepare for increased autonomy and responsibility, college needs to be a time of exploration and experimentation. This process involves ―trying on ‖ new ways of thinking about oneself bothe intellectually(在思维方面) and person ally. While we should provide ―safe spaces‖ within colleges, we must also make it safe to express opinions and challenge majority views. Intellectual growth and flexibility are fostered by strict debate and questioning.Learning to deal with the social world is equally important. Because a college community(群体) differs from the family, many students will struggle to find a sense of belonging. If students rely on administrators to regulate their social behavior and thinking pattern, they are not facing the challenge of finding an identity within a larger and complex community.Moreover, the tendency for universities to monitor and shape student behavior runs up against another characteristic of young adults: the response to being controlled by their elders. If acceptable social behavior is too strictly defined(规定) and controlled, the insensitive or aggressive behavior that administrators are seeking to minimize may actually be encouraged.It is not surprising that young people are likely to burst out, particularly when there are reasons新东方在线高考网（/）网友分享to do so. Our generation once joined hands and stood firm at times of national emergency. What is lacking today is the conflict between adolescent‘s desire for autonomy and their understanding of an unsafe world. Therefore, there is the desire for their dorms to be replacement homes and not places to experience intellectual growth.Every college discussion about community values, social climate and behavior should include recognition of the developmental importance of student autonomy and self-regulation, of the necessary tension between safety and self-discovery.67.What‘s the author‘s attitude toward continued parental guidance to college students?( B)A.SympatheticB.DisapprovingC.SupportiveD.Neutral68.The underlined word ―passage‖ in Paraghaph 2 means .( A)A.changeB.choiceC.textD.extension69.According to the anthor ,what role should college play?( D)A.to develop a shared identity among studentsB.to de fine and regulate students‘ social behaviorC.To provide a safe world without tension for studentsD.To foster students‘ intellectual and personal development70.Which of the following shows the development of ideas in the passage?( C)新东方在线高考网（/）网友分享I:Introduction P：Point Sp：Sub-point（次要点）C：Conclusion(2016江苏高考英语)请阅读下列短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

e﹣learning courses？A．To learn information technology on﹣line．B．To do their assignments independently．C．To update their mobile devices regularly．D．To talk face to face with their teachers．58．（6分）Chimps（黑猩猩）will cooperate in certain ways，like gathering in war parties to protect their territory．But beyond the minimum requirements as social beings，they have little instinct （本能）to help one another．Chimps in the wild seek food for themselves．Even chimp mothers regularly decline to share food with their children．Who are able from a young age to gather their own food．In the laboratory，chimps don't naturally share food either．If a chimp is put in a cage where he can pull in one plate of food for himself or，with no great effort，a plate that also provides food for a neighbor to the next cage，he will pull at random﹣﹣﹣he just doesn't care whether his neighbor gets fed or not．Chimps are truly selfish．Human children，on the other hand are extremely corporative．From the earliest ages，they decide to help others，to share information and to participate a achieving common goals．The psychologist Michael Tomselle has studied this corporativiness in a series of expensive with very young children．He finds that if babies aged 18months see an unrelated adult with hands full trying to open a door，almost all will immediately try to help．There are several reasons to believe that the urges to help，inform and share are not taught．but naturally possessed in young children．One is that these instincts appear at a very young age before most parents have started to train children to behave socially．Another is that the helping behavices are not improved if the children are remanded．A third reason is that social intelligenct．Develops in children beforetheir general cognitive（认知的）skills，at least when compared with chimps..In tests conducted by Tomtasell，the children did no better than the chimps on the physical world tests，but were considerably better at understanding the social worldThe cure of what children's minds have and chimps'don't in what Tomaseflo calls what．Part of this ability is that they can infer what others know or are thinking．But that，even very young children want to be part of a shared purpose．They actively seek to be part of a"we"，a group that intends to work toward a shared goal．58．what can we learn from the experiment with chimps？A Chimps seldom care about others'interests．B．Chimps tend to provide food for their children．C．Chimps like to take in their neighbors'food．D．Chimps naturally share food with each other．59．Micheal Tomasello's tests on young children indicate that theyA．have the instinct to help others．B．know how to offer help to adults．C．know the world better than chimps．D．trust adults with their hands full60．The passage is mainly aboutA．the helping behaviors of young children．B．ways to train children's shared intentionality．C．cooperation as a distinctive human nature．D．the development of intelligence in children．61．（8分）El Nifio，a Spanish term for"the Christ child"，was named by South American fisherman who noticed that the global weather pattern，which happens every two to seven years，reduced the amount of fishes caught around Christmas．El Nifio sees warm water，collected over several years in the western Pacific，flow back eastwards when winds that normally blow westwards weaken，or sometimes the other way round．The weather effects both good and bad，are felt in many places．Rich countries gain more from powerful Nifio，on balance，than they lose．A study found that a strong Nifio in 1997helped American's economy grow by 15billion，partly because of better agricultural harvest，farmers in the Midwest gained from extra rain．The total rise in agricultural in rich countries in growth than the fall in poor ones．61．What can we learn about El Nino in Paragraph 1？A．It is named after a South American fisherman．B．It takes place almost every year all over the world．C．It forces fishermen to stop catching fish around Christmas．D．It sees the changes of water flow direction in the ocean．62．What may El Ninos bring about to the countries affected？A．Agricultural harvests in rich countries fall．B．Droughts become more harmful than floods．C．Rich countries'gains are greater than their losses．D．Poor countries suffer less from droughts economically．63．The data provided by ODI in Paragraph 4 suggest thatA．more investment should go to risk reductionB．governments of poor countries need more aidC．victims of El Nino deserve more compensationD．recovery and reconstruction should come first64．What is the author's purpose in writing the passage？A．To introduce El Nino and its origin．B．To explain the consequences of El Nino．C．To show ways of fighting against El Nino．D．To urge people to prepare for El Nino．65．（12分）Not so long ago，most people didn't know who Shelly Ann Francis Pryce was going to become．She was just an average high school athlete．There was every indication that she was just another American teenager without much of afuture．However，one person wants to change this．Stephen Francis observed then eighteen﹣year﹣old Shelly Ann as a track meet and was convinced that he had seen the beginning of true greatness．Her time were not exactly impressive，but even so，he seemed there was something trying to get out，something the other coaches had overlooked when they had assessed her and found her lacking．He decided to offer Shelly Ann a place in his very strict training seasons．Their cooperation quickly produced results，and a few year later at Jamaica's Olympic games in early 2008，Shelly Ann，who at that time only ranked number 70 in the world，beat Jamaica's unchallenged queen of the sprint（短跑）．"Where did she come from？"asked an astonished sprinting world，before concluding that she must be one of those one﹣hit wonders that spring up from time to time，only to disappear again without signs．But Shelly Ann was to prove that she was anything but a one﹣hit wonder．At the Beijing Olympic she swept away any doubts about her ability to perform consistently by becoming the first Jamaican woman ever to win the 100 meters Olympic gold．She did it again one year on at the World Championship in Briton，becoming world champion with a time of 10.73﹣﹣﹣the fourth record ever．Shelly﹣Ann is a little woman with a big smile．She has a mental toughness that did not come about by chance．Her journey to becoming the fastest woman on earth has been anything but smooth and effortless．She grew up in one of Jamaica's toughest inner﹣city communities known as Waterhouse，where she lived in a one﹣room apartment，sleeping four in a bed with her mother and two brothers．Waterhouse，one of the poorest communities in Jamaica，is a really violent and overpopulated place．Several of Shelly﹣Ann's friends and family were caught up in the killings；one of her cousins was shot dead only a few streets away from where she lived．Sometimes her family didn't have enough to eat．She ran at the school championships barefooted because she couldn't afford shoes．Her mother Maxime，one of a family of fourteen，had been an athlete herself as a young girl but，like so many other girls in Waterhouse，had to stop after she had her first baby．Maxime's early entry in to the adult world with its responsibilities gave her the determinationto ensure that her kids would not end up in Waterhouse's roundabout of poverty．One of the first things Maxime used to do with Shelly﹣Ann was taking her to the track，and she was ready to sacrifice everything．It didn't take long for Shelly﹣Ann to realize that sports could be her way out of Waterhouse．On a summer evening in Beijing in 2008，all those long，hard hours of work and commitment finally bore fruit．The barefoot kid who just a few years previously had been living in poverty，surrounded by criminals and violence，had written a new chapter in the history of sports．But Shelly﹣Ann's victory was far greater than that．The night she won Olympic gold in Beijing，the routine murders in Waterhouse and the drug wars in the neighbouring streets stopped．The dark cloud above one of the world's toughest criminal neighbourhoods simply disappeared for a few days．"I have so much fire burning for my country，"Shelly said．She plans to start a foundation for homeless children and wants to build a community centre in Waterhouse．She hopes to inspire the Jamaicans to lay down their weapons．She intends to fight to make it a woman's as well as a man's world．As Muhammad Al i puts it，"Champions aren't made in gyms．Champions are made from something they have deep inside them．A desire，a dream，a vision．"One of the things Shelly﹣Ann can be proud of is her understanding of this truth．65．Why did Stephen Francis decide to coach Shelly﹣Ann？A．He had a strong desire to free her family from trouble．B．He sensed a great potential in her despite her weaknesses．C．She had big problems maintaining her performance．D．She suffered a lot of defeats at the previous track meets．66．What did the sprinting world think of Shelly﹣Ann before the 2008 Olympic Games？A．She would become a promising star．B．She badly needed to set higher goals．C．Her sprinting career would not last long．D．Her talent for sprinting was known to all．67．What made Maxime decide to train her daughter on the track？A．Her success and lessons in her career．B．Her interest in Shelly﹣Ann's quick profit．C．Her wish to get Shelly﹣Ann out of poverty．D．Her early entrance into the sprinting world．68．What can we infer from Shelly﹣Ann's statement underlined in Paragraph 5？A．She was highly rewarded for her efforts．B．She was eager to do more for her country．C．She became an athletic star in her country．D．She was the envy of the whole community．69．By mentioning Muhammad Ali's words，the author intends to tell us that．A．players should be highly inspired by coachesB．great athletes need to concentrate on patienceC．hard work is necessary in one's achievementsD．motivation allows great athletes to be on the top70．What is the best title for the passage？A．The Making of a Great AthleteB．The Dream for ChampionshipC．The Key to High PerformanceD．The Power of Full Responsibility．第四部分：任务型阅读（共1小题；每小题10分，满分10分）请阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。

Scientists in UK have grown a living human "brain". The team at Aston University created tiny bunch of cells which act like a mini nervous system.They believe it could help find a cure for worse mental conditions like Parkinson’s disease. Professor Michael Coleman is leading the research program. He explained, "We are aiming to be able to study the human brain at the most basic level, using an actual living human cell system. Cells have to be alive and operating efficiently to enable us to really understand how the brain works. "The experiment involves changing cells from a cancer tumour (肿瘤）and making them behave like brain cells.Although far from finished, researchers hope the false brain cells will give them a greater understanding of how real brains work. This, in turn, could significantly further research into conditions which affect the brain. Neil Hunt, chief leader of the research group, said, "It is still very early days, but in the future the research could lead to a useful tool for looking into dementia (痴呆)."The technique could also provide a way to carry on animal test and is being supported by the Humane Research Trust (HRT). The scientists predict that over the next ten years a million people will develop dementia. Professor Coleman believes their findings could change this. He said，"We hope our research will provide scientists with a new and highly relational human experimental model to help them understand the brain better and develop new drugs to control the related disease. However, the biggest challenge at present is that we are greatly short of fund, which will slow our research."1. UK scientists grow a living human "brain" in order to ______.A. study the structure of human brainB. make use of living human cell systemC. discover how human brain really worksD. separate cells from a cancer tumour2. According to Neil Hunt, research into brain cells ______.A. will get finished as early as possibleB. will make people discover dementiaC. will affect the brain growth in many waysD. will help to treat some diseases in nerve system3. From the last paragraph，we can know that ______A. the technique provided by HRT is immatureB. animal tests are no longer allowed by lawC. a million people suffer from brain diseasesD. the research program lacks financial support4. The text is intended to ______.A. tell us about a breakthrough in medical researchB. introduce a research program in human's brainC. introduce the progress of drugs for dementiaD. tell us about health problem in nerve system【参考答案】1—4、CDDB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。

高中英语真题:2016高考英语阅读类训练（14）阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

Most young architects—particularly those in big cities—can only dream about working in a building of their own. And making that dream come true often means finding a building n o one else seems to want,which is exactly what happened to David Yocum and his partner,Brian Bell. Their building is a for mer automobile electrical-parts firm in . From the outside,it looks too old,even somethin g horrible,but open the door and you are in a wide,open court yard,lined on three sides with rusting (生锈的)walls.In 2000,Yocum and Bell found this building in the city’s West End. Built in 1947,the structure had been abandoned years e arlier and the roof of the main building had fallen down. But th e price was right,so Yocum bought it. He spent eight months of his off-hours on demolition (拆除),pulling rubbish out through the roof,because it was too da ngerous to go inside the building. The demolition was hard wo rk,but it gave him time to think about what he wanted to do,and“to treasure what was there—the walls,the rust,the light. “ Yocum said. “Every season,more paint falls off the walls and more rust develops. It’s like an art i nstallation (装置)in there—a slow-motion show. “Since the back building had been constructed without window s,an all-glass front was added to the building to give it a view of the co urtyard,and skylights were installed in the roof. The back of th e building is a working area and a living room for Yocum and his wife. A sort of buffer (缓冲) zone between the front and the back contains a bathroom, a kitchen and a mechanical room,and the walls that separate t hese zones have openings that allow views through to the fro nt of the studio and the courtyard beyond.Yocum and ,who have just completed an art gallery for the cit y,feel that the experience from the decoration of their building, focusing on the inside rather than the outside,has influenced t heir work. It has also given these architects a chance to show how they can make more out of less.1. According to the passage,it isfor most young architects in big cities to work in a building of t heir own.A. easyB. unnecessaryC. unrealisticD. common2. Yocum bought the old building because .A. it was a bargain to himB. it was still in good conditionC. it was located in the city centerD. it looked attractive from the outside3. Working on the old building,Yocum and Bell .A. pulled rubbish out through the roofB. removed the skylights from the bathroomC. presented a slow-motion show in an art galleryD. built a kitchen at the back part of the old building4. It can be inferred from the passage that Yocum and Bell.A. benefited a lot from pulling down the roofB. turned more old buildings into art galleriesC. got inspiration from decorating their old buildingD. paid more attention to the outside of the art gallery5. The main idea of the passage is that .A. people can learn a lot from their failuresB. it is worthwhile to spend money on an old buildingC. people should not judge things by their appearanceD. creative people can make the best of what they have【参考答案】1--5 、CAACD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。

2016高考全国卷2英语试题与答案与解析(word精校版)

WORD格式整理版2015 年高考全国卷 2 英语试题第Ⅰ卷第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40 分）AMy color television has given me nothing but a headache. I was able to buy it a little over a year ago because I had my relatives give me money for my birthday instead ofclothes that wouldn’t fit.I let a salesclerk fool me into buying a discontinued model.I realized this a day later, when I saw newspaper advertisements for the set atseventy-five dollars less than I had paid. The set worked so beautiful when I firstgot it home that I would keep it on until stations signed off for the night.Fortunately,I didn ’t get any channels showing all-night movies or I would never have gotten tobed.Then I started developing a problem with the set that involved static(静电 )noise. For some reason,when certain shows switched into a commercial, a loud noise would sound for a few seconds.Gradually,this noise began to appear during a show,and to get rid of it, I had to change to another channel and then change it back. Sometimes thistechnique would not work,and I had to pick up the set and shake it to remove the sound.I actually began to build up my arm muscles(肌肉 ) shaking my set.Whenneither of these methods removed the static noise,I would sit helplessly and wait for the noise to go away. At last I ended up hitting the set with my first, andit stopped working altogether. My trip to the repair shop cost me $62, and the sit isworking well now, but I keep expecting more trouble.21. Why did the author say he was fooled into buying the TV set?A. He got an older model than he had expected.B He couldn ’t return it when itwas broken.B He could have bought it at a lower price.D He failed to find any movieshows on it.22. Which of the following an best replace the phrase“ signed off” in paragraph 1?WORD格式整理版A. ended all their programs B provided fewer channelsC changed to commercialsD showed all-night movies23. How did the author finally get this TV set working again?A.By shaking and hitting it B By turning it on and offC By switching channelsD By having it repaired24. How does the author sound when telling the story?A.Curious B Anxious C Cautious D HumorousBYour house may have an effect on your figure. experts say the way you design yourhome could play a role in whether you pack on the pounds or keep them off.you can make your environment work for you instead of against you. Here are some ways to turn yourhome into part of your diet plan.Open the curtains and turn up the lights. dark environments are more likely toencourage overeating, for people are often less self-conscious(难为情 ) when they ’re in poorly lit places– and so more likely to eat lots of food. If your home doesn’t have enough window light, get more lamps and flood the place with brightness.Mind the colors. Research suggests warm colors fuel our appetites. In one study,people who ate meals in a blue room consumed 33 percent less than those in a yellowor red room. Warmcolors like yellow make food appear more appetizing,while cold colors make us less hungry. So when it’s time to repaint, go blue.Don’t forget the clock– or the radio.People who eat slowly tend to consume about 70 fewer calories(卡路里) per meal than those who rush through their meals. Beginkeeping track of the time, and try to make dinner last at 30 minutes. And while you’re at it, actually sit down to eat. If you need some help slowing down, turning on relaxing music. It makes you less likely to rush through a meal.Downsize the dishes. Big serving bowls and plants can easily makes us fat. We eatabout 22 percent more when using a 12-inch plate instead of a 10-inch plate. When wechoose a large spoon over a smaller one, total intake(摄入) jumps by 14 percent. And we’ll pour about 30 percent more liquid into a short, wide glass than a tall, skinnyglass.25. The text is especially helpful for those who care about ____.A.their home comforts B their body shapeC house buyingD healthy diets26. A home environment in blue can help people ____.A.digest food better B reduce food intakeC burn more caloriesD regain their appetites27. What are people advised to do at mealtimes?A.Eat quickly.B Play fast musicC Use smaller spoonsD Turn down the lights28.What can be a suitable title for the text?A.Is Your House Making You Fat?B Ways of Serving DinnerC Effects of Self-ConsciousnessD Is Your Home Environment Relaxing?CMore students than ever before are taking a gap year(间隔年 ) before going to university.It used to be the“year off ” between school and universit y. The gap-year phenomenon originated( 起源 ) with the months left over to Oxbridge applicants betweenentrance exams in November and the start of the next academic year.This year,25,310students who have accepted places in higher education institutions have put off their entry until next year, according to statistics onuniversity entrance provided by the University and College Admissions Service(UCAS).That is a record 14.7% increase in the number of students taking a gap year. TonyHiggins from UCASsaid that the statistics are g ood news for everyone in higher education.“Students who take a well-planned year out are more likely to be satisfied with, andcomplete, their chosen course. Students who take a gap year are often more mature and responsible,” he said.But not everyone is happy. Owain James, the president of the National Union ofStudents(NUS),argued that the increase is evidence of student hardship– young people are being forced into earning money before finishing their education.“New students are now aware that they are likely to leave university up to￡ 15,000 in debt. It isnot surprising that more and more students are taking a gap year to earn money to supportto work during term time and the figure increases to 90% during vacating periods,”he said.29. What do we learn about the gap year from the text?A.It is flexible in length.B It is a time for relaxationC It is increasingly popularD It is required by universities30. According to Tony Higgins. students taking a gap year ____.A. are better prepared for college studies B know a lot more about theirfuture jobC are more likely to leave university in debtD have a better chance to entertop universities31. How does Owain James feel about the gap-year phenomenon?A.He’s puzzled B He’s worriedC He’s surprisedD He’s annoyed32.What would most students do on their vacation according to NUS statistics?A.Attend additional courses.B Make plans for the new termC Earn money for their educationD Prepare for their graduate studiesDChoose Your One-Day-Tours!Tour A - Bath &Stonehenge: including entrance fees to the ancient Roman bathrooms and Stonehenge - ￡ 37 until 26 March and￡ 39 thereafter.Visit the city with over 2,000years of history and Bath Abbey,the Royal Crescent and the Costume Museum, Stonehenge is one of the world's most famous prehistoric monuments dating back over 5,000 years.Tour B -Oxford& Startford i ncluding entrance fees to the University St Mary's Church Tower and Anne Hathaway's -￡ 32 until 12 March and￡ 36 thereafterOxford:Includes a guided tour of England's oldest university city and colleges.Look over the "city of dreaming spires(尖顶） "from St Mary ’s Church Tower.

高中英语真题:2016高考英语阅读理解和单项选择选练（2）阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

Wilderness“In wilderness (荒野) is the preservation of the world. ” This is a famous saying f rom a writer regarded as one of the fathers of environmentalis m. The frequency with which it is borrowed mirrors a heated d ebate on environmental protection: whether to place wilderne ss at the heart of what is to be preserved.As John Sauven of Greenpeace points out, there is a strong appeal in images of the wild, the untouched; more than anythi ng else, they speak of the nature that many people value mos t dearly. The urge to leave the subject of such images untouc hed is strong, and the danger exploitation (开发) brings to such landscapes (景观) is real. Some of these wildernesses also perform functions that humans need—the rainforests, for example, store carbon in vast quantities. T o Mr. Sauven, these “ecosystem services”far outweigh the gains from exploitation., a visiting fellow at the Hudson Institute, takes the opposing v iew. He acknowledges that wildernesses do provide useful se rvices, such as water conservation. But that is not, he argues, a reason to avoid all human presence, or indeed commercial and industrial exploitation. There are ever more people on the Earth, and they reasonably and rightfully want to have better l ives, rather than merely struggle for survival. While the ways of using resources have improved, there is still a growing nee d for raw materials, and some wildernesses contain them in a bundance. If they can be tapped without reducing the services those wildernesses provide, the argument goes, there is no f urther reason not to do so. Being untouched is not, in itself, a characteristic worth valuing above all others.I look forward to seeing these views taken further, and to their being challenged by the other participants. One challenge tha t suggests itself to me is that both cases need to take on the q uestion of spiritual value a little more directly. And there is a p ractical question as to whether wildernesses can be exploited without harm.This is a topic that calls for not only free expression of feeling s, but also the guidance of reason. What position wilderness s hould enjoy in the preservation of the world obviously deserves much more serious thinking.1. John Sauven holds that .A. many people value nature too muchB. exploitation of wildernesses is harmfulC. wildernesses provide humans with necessitiesD. the urge to develop the ecosystem services is strong2. What is the main idea of Para. 3?A. The exploitation is necessary for the poor people.B. Wildernesses cannot guarantee better use of raw materials .C. Useful services of wildernesses are not the reason for no e xploitation.D. All the characteristics concerning the exploitation should be treated equally.3. What is the author’s attitude towards this debate?A. Objective.B. Disapproving.C. Sceptical.D. Optimistic.4. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage?CP: Central Point P: Point Sp: Sub- point(次要点) C: Conclusion【参考答案】1—4、BCAD阅读下列四篇短文，从每小题后所给的A,B,C或D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

2016年高考全国甲卷(全国Ⅱ)英语试卷及答案(解析版)

2016年高考全国甲卷（全国Ⅱ）英语试卷及答案总评：2016年全国卷II稳中有变，难度适中，全面科学的考查了学生对基础知识的掌握和语言运用的能力。

阅读理解从文体上来看，与前几年的出题思路一致：一篇广告，一篇说明文，两篇记叙文；考查内容全面，其中以细节理解的考查为主，但是推理判断题比重有所增加，主旨大意题、词义猜测题也均有涉及。

七选五重在考查上下文衔接识别。

如何识别正确的生活知识，给出一些建议，这样的话题考生得心应手，因此七选五的常规选项筛选和辨析技巧都能派上用场，良好的时间分配定能攻克此题。

完形填空全文逻辑清晰，上下文线索明了，做题过程比较符合考生所谓“顺”的预期。

偏向词汇辨析考查的明显减少。

我们不难发现，在整体故事情节比较通畅的情况下，语意辨析的难度会降低，而纯粹的词汇辨析又居于少数，因此今年该题重在考查的就是对于语篇的细致理解，并没有在故事情感线索处及近义词辨析方面过多挖坑增加区分度。

全文线索清晰，词汇考查重在语篇理解，词组搭配考查多用基础词汇。

本篇完形填空重在考查语篇理解能力，且不在情节上、词汇考查上大做文章的趋势还是愈发明显的。

语法填空与短文改错与去年的试题难度基本一致。

突出了高考对于重点考点的重点考查，应该说大部分同学都能在这两个部分取得一个不错的分数，动词的时态语态、非谓语动词、名词的单数复数以及不同词性之间的词形转换仍然是我们考查的重点。

最后，从书面表达部分来看，仍然是忙碌的李华，是一篇书信作文中的邀请类作文，应该说也是未来出题的一种趋势，那就是回归到高考题的经典考法上来。

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。
