2011年高考英语 重庆卷阅读真题
2011年重庆卷AThere was a gardener who looked after his garden with great care. To water his flowers, he used two buckets. One was a shiny and new bucket. The other was a very old and dilapidated one, which had seen many years of service, but was now past its best.Every morning, the gardener would fill up the two buckets. Then he would carry them along the path, one on each side, to the flowerbeds. The new bucket was very proud of itself. It could carry a full bucket of water without a single drop spilled. The old bucket felt very ashamed because of its holes: before it reached the flowerbeds, much water had leaked along the path.Sometimes the new bucket would say, “See how capable I am! How good it is that the gardener has me to water the flowers every day! I don’t know why he still bothers with you. What a waste of s pace you are!”And all that the old bucket could say was, “I know I am not very useful, but I can only do my best. I’m happy that the gardener still finds a little bit of use in me, at least.”One day, the gardener heard that kind of conversation. After watering the flowers as usual, he said, “You both have done your work very well. Now I am going to carry you back. I want you to look carefully along the path.”Then the two buckets did so. All along the path, they noticed, on the side where the new bucket was carried, there was just bare earth; on the other side where the old bucket was carried, there was a joyous row of wild flowers, leading all the way to the garden.56. What does the underlined word “dilapidated” probably mean?A. Dirty.B. Dark.C. Worn-out.D. Plain-looking.57. What was the old bucket ashamed of?A. His past.B. His aging.C. His manner.D. His leaking.58. The new bucket made conversations with the old one mainly to ______.A. laugh at the old oneB. take pity on the old oneC. show off its beautiful looksD. praise the gardener’s kindness59. Why was the old bucket still kept by the gardener?A. Because it was used to keep a balance.B. Because it stayed in its best condition.C. Because it was taken as a treasure.D. Because it had its own function.BMapping Your WorldDifferent forms of maps are appearing. They allow independent travelers to get local knowledge of places they are visting, from the official to the unusual. Meanwhile, hi-tech developments are creating new ways for us to map the world. Here are two of our favorites:Green MapsGreen Maps allows people to share with the world their knowledge of environmentally friendly places and attractions in the local areas. Users add information with a set of icons (图标) , making it easy to read any map, whatever the nationalities of those who produce it. At present there are over five hundred map projects being developed in 54 countries. Green Maps’ advertised idea is “think global, map local”. It is a wonderful way of gaining all sorts of information of a place, ranging from community gardens to good places of birdwatching.Green Maps is not specifically intended for travelers. Not all of its maps are online, so it may be necessary for some users to communicate with producers through the Green Maps website.Map MashupsMany people use online maps developed by Google, but not many know about the mashups of them. Working in a similar way to Green Maps, Map Mashups allows people to add icons of their own to existing maps to express a certain topic. The mashups is so called because it combines all the knowledge you could ever need. It ranges from the extremely useful, such as where all the World Heritage Sites are, to the most bizarre (古怪的), such as where America’s drunkest cities are. With the mashups added to the basic Google Maps, a multi-layered map can be created.60. According to the passage, which of the following is a characteristic of Green Maps?A. Aiming at environmental protection.B. Introducing local attractions with icons.C. Offering advice to independent travelers.D. Collecting icons worldwide for local maps.61. Which of the following icons is most probably NOT used in Green Maps?A. B.C. D.62. “Map Mashups”is named with the word “mashups” because ______.A. it is produced by users all over the worldB. it gathers various kinds of informationC. it shares icons with Green MapsD. it is a branch of Google Maps63. What do Green Maps and Map Mashups have in common?A. They are created by local people.B. They are environmentally friendly.C. Users can edit maps on the Internet.D. Users need to communicate with producers.CGetting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thing. However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out.Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War Ⅱ. Advertise ments repeatedly sell the idea: clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease. On the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist (免疫学家), encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter position is gaining some ground.64. The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because ______.A. they lived healthily in a dirty environment. B they thought bath houses were to dirty to stay inC. they believed disease could be spread in public bathsD. they considered bathing as the cause of skin disease65. Which of the following best describes Henry IV’s attitude to bathing?A. Afraid.B. Curious.C. Approving.D. Uninterested.66. How does the passage mainly develop?A. By providing examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By following the order of time.D. By following the order of importance.67. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A. To stress the role of dirt.B. To introduce the history of dirt.C. To call attention to the danger of dirt.D. To present the change of views on dirt.DWilliam Butler Yeats, a most famous Irish writer, was born in Dublin on June 13, 1865. His childhood lacked the harmony that was typical of a happy family. Later, Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered “little of childhood but its pain”.In fact, he inherited excellent taste in art from his family --- both his father and his brother were painters. But he finally settled on literature, particularly drama and poetry.Yeats had strong faith in coming of new artistic movements. He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish national theatre in the late 1890s. His early theatrical experiments, however, were not received favo rably at the beginning. He didn’t lose heart, and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama.Compared with his dramatic works, Yeats’s poems attract much admiring notice. The subject matter includes love, nature, history, time and aging. Though Yeats generally relied on very traditional forms, he brought modern sensibility to them. As his literary life progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide recognition.He had not enjoyed a major public lift since winning the Nobel Price in 1923. Yet, he continued writing almost to the end of his life. Had Yeats stopped writing at age 40, he would probably now be valued as a minor poet, for there is no other example in literary history of a poet who produces his greatest works between th e ages of 50 and 75. After Yeats’s death in 1939, W.H. Auden wrote, among others, the following lines:Earth, receive an honored guest:William Yeats is laid to rest.Let the Irish vessel (船) lieEmptied of its poetry.68. Which of the following can describe Yeats’s family?A. It filled Yeats’s childhood with laughter.B. It was shocked by Yeats’s choice.C. It was a typically wealthy family.D. It had an artistic atmosphere.69. According to the passage, what do we know about Yeats’s life?A. Yeats founded the first Irish theater.B.Yeats stuck to modern forms in his peotry.C. Yeats began to produce his best works from the 1910s.D. Yeats was not favored by the public until the 1923 Noble Prize.70. What kind of feeling is expressed in W.H.Auden’s lines?A. Envy.B. Sympathy.C. Emptiness.D. Admiration.71. What is the passage mainly about?A. Yeats’s literary achievements.B. Yeats’s historical inf luence.C. Yeats’s artistic ambition.D. Yeats’s national honor.ESkeptics are a strange lot. Some of them refuse to admit the serious threat of human activities to the environment, and they are tired of people who disagree with them. Those people, say skeptics, spread noting but bad news about the environment. The “eco-guilt” brought on by the discouraging news about our planet gives rise to the popularity of skeptics as people search for more comforting worldviews.Perhaps that explains why a new book by Bjorn Lomborg received so much publicity. That book, The Skeptical Environmentalist, declares that it measures the “real state of the world” as fine. Of course, another explanation is the deep pockets of some big businesses with special interests. Indeed, Mr. Lomborg’s views are similar to those of some industry-funded organizations, which start huge activities through the media to confuse the public about issues like global warming.So it was strange to see Mr. Lomborg’s book go largely unchallenged in the media though his beliefs were contrary to most scientific opinions. One national newspaper in Canada ran a number of articles and reviews full of words of praise, even with the conclusion that “After Lomborg, the environmental movement will begin to die down.”Such one-sided views should have immediately been challenged. But only a different review appeared in Nature, a respected science magazine with specific readership. The review remarked that Mr. Lomborg’s “preference for unexamined materials is incredible (不可信的)”.A critical eye is valuable, and the media should present information in such a way that could allow people to make informed decisions. Unfortunately, that is often inaccessible as blocked by the desire to be shocking or to defend some special interest. People might become half-blind before a world partially exhibited by the media. That’s a shame, because matters concerning the health of the planet are far too important to be treated lightly.72. According to the passage, which of the following may be regarded as “skeptics”?A. People who agree on the popularity of “eco-guilt”.B. People who disbelieve the serious situation of our planet.C. People who dislike the harmful effect of human activities.D. People who spread comforting news to protect our environment.73. Which of the following can be a reason for t he popularity of Lomborg’s book?A. Some big businesses intend to protect their own interests.B .The book challenges views about the fine state of the world.C. The author convinces people to seek comforting worldviews.D. Industry–funded media present confusing information.74. The author mentioned the review in Nature in order to ______.A. voice a different opinionB. find fault with Lomborg’s bookC. challenge the authority of the mediaD. point out the value of scientific views75. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the passage?A. To encourage the skeptics to have a critical eye.B. To warn the public of the danger of half–blindness with reviews.C. To blame the media’s lack of responsibility in information.D. To show the importance of presenting overall information by the media.KeysA篇CDADB篇BBBCC篇CACDD篇DCDA E篇BAAD。

重庆市2011英语短文填空练习
2011年重庆市英语中考专题练习----短文填空【题型要求】：根据短文的内容及上下文意思，在空格中填入一个意思，语法正确的单词形式。
这实际上是完形填空的变体，但比完形填空更难。
它没有选项的提示，只是文章内容的暗示，如果没有读懂短文的意思，就无法做这种题。
短文的题材很多，有故事，科普小品，风土人情，人物，文化，体育等，一般以故事性题材为主，少科普性，否则会更难。
考查的内容也相当广泛，但常以动词（同义词区别及形式），介词，形容词（副词）的级，名词的数，习惯用语的搭配，连词（含引导词）等为主。
【解题技巧】：1.第一遍通读全文，对文章有一个整体认识，了解故事的时间，地点，人物等之间的关系，为下一步填空打下坚实的基础，切忌看一空填一空。
2.第二遍逐句阅读并填空，根据句子的语法以及上下文的整体逻辑关系用恰当的词填入空白，特别是有时根据意思可能有多种用法时，应填入恰当的单词并符合英美人的习惯表达，不要受汉语的影响。
例如：“我看一看你的信”，关于“看”的就有六个，这就需要进行筛选，只能用read，不能用watch，see，look，have a look at, look at等。
3.第三遍复查答案。
将填完的短文再完整地阅读一次，以检查全文是否通顺，所填答案是否最为合理，形式是否正确等等。

They allow independent travelers to get local knowledge of places they are visiting, from the official to the unusual. Meanwhile, hi-tech developments are creating new ways for us to map the world. Here are two of our favorites;Green MapsGreen Maps allows people to share with the world their knowledge of environmentally friendly places and attractions in the local areas. Users add information with a set of icons (图标), making it easy to read any map, whatever the nationalities of those who produce it. At present there are over five hundredMap projects being developed in 54 countries Green Maps’ advertised idea is “think global, map local”. It is a wonderful way of gaining all sorts of a place, ranging from community garden to good places of bird watching.Green Maps is not specifically intended for travelers. Not all of its maps are online, so it may be necessary for some users to communicate with producers through the Green Maps website.Maps MashupsMany people use online maps developed by Google, but not many know about the mashups of them. Working in a similar way to Green Maps, Maps Mashups allows people to add icons of their own to existing maps to express a certain topic. The mashups is so called because it combines all the knowledge you could ever need. It ranges from the extremely useful, such as where all the World Heritage Site are, to the most bizarre (古怪的)，such as where America’s drunkest cities are. With the mashups added to the basic Google Maps, amulti-layered (多层的) map can be created.40．According to the passage, which of the following is a characteristic of Green Maps? A．Aiming at environmental protection.B．Introducing local attractions with icons.C．Offering advice to independent travelers.D．Collecting icons worldwide for local maps.41．Which of the following icons is most probably NOT used in Green Maps A．B．C．D．42．Map Mashups is named with the word “mashups”becauseA．it is produced by users all over the worldB．it gathers various kinds of informationC．it shares icons with Green MapsD．it is a branch of Google Maps43．What do Green Maps and Map Mashups have in common?A．They are created by local people.B．They are environmentally friendly.C．Users can edit maps on the Internet.D．Users need to communicate with produces.Getting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thing However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, king of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out.Though the belief in the merit(优优) of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War II. Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea: clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease. On the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist(优优优优), encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter position is gaining some ground. 44．The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because . A．they lived healthily in a dirty environmentB．they thought bath houses were too dirty to stay inC．they considered bathing as cause of skin diseaseD．They believed disease could be spread in public baths45．Which of the following best describes Henry IV’s attitude to bathing?A．Curious B．Afraid C．Approving D．Uninterested 46．How does the passage mainly develop?A．By following the order of time.B．By making comparison.C．By providing examples D．By following the order of importance. 47．What is the author’s purpose in writing the passages?A．To call attention to the danger of dirt.B．To introduce the history of dirt.C．To present the change of views on dirt.D．To stress the role of dirt.William Butler Yeats, a most famous Irish writer, was born in Dublin on June 13, 1865. His childhood lacked the harmony that was typical of a happy family. Later, Yeats shocked his family by saying that he remembered "little of childhood but its pain". In fact, he inherited (继承) excellent taste in art from his family — both his father and his brother were painters. But he finally settled on literature, particularly drama and poetry.Yeats had strong faith in the coming of new artistic movements. He set himself the fresh task in founding an Irish national theatre in the late 1890s. His early theatrical experiments, however, were not received favorably at the beginning. He didn't lose heart, and finally enjoyed success in his poetical drama.Compared with his dramatic works, Yeats's poems attract much admiring notice. The subject matter includes love, nature, history, time and aging. Though Yeats generally relied on very traditional forms, he brought modern sensibility to them. As his literary life progressed, his poetry grew finer and richer, which led him to worldwide recognition.He had not enjoyed a major public life since winning the Nobel Prize in 1923. Yet, he continued writing almost to the end of his life. Had Yeats stopped writing at age 40, he would probably now be valued as a minor poet, for there is no other example in literary history of a poet who produces his greatest works between the ages of 50 and 75. After Yeats's Death in 1939, W. H. Auden wrote, among others, the following lines:Earth, receive an honoured guest:William Yeats is laid to rest.Let the Irish vessel (船) lieEmptied of its poetry.48．Which of the following can describe Yeats's family?A．It filled Yeats's childhood with laughter.B．It was shocked by Yeats's choice.C．It was a typically wealthy family.D．It had an artistic atmosphere.49．According to the passage, what do we know about Yeats's life?A．Yeats founded the first Irish theater.B．Yeats stuck to modern forms in his poetry.C．Yeats began to produce his best works from the 1910s.D．Yeats was not favored by the public until the 1923 Noble Prize.50．What kind of feeling is expressed in W. H. Auden's lines?A．Envy B．Sympathy C．Emptiness D．Admiration 51．What is the passage mainly about?A．Yeats's literary achievements B．Yeats's historical influenceC．Yeats's artistic ambition D．Yeats's national honorSkeptics are a strange lot. Some of them refuse to admit the serious threat of human activities to the environment, and they are tired of people who disagree with them. Those people, say skeptics, spread nothing but bad news about the environment. The “eco-guilt” brought on by the discouraging news about our planet gives rise to the popularity of skeptics as people search for more comforting worldviews.Perhaps that explain why a new book by Bjorn Lomborg received so much publicity. That book, The Skeptical Environmentalist, declares that it measures the “real state of the world” as fine. Of course, another explanation is the deep pockets some big businesses with special interests. Indeed, Mr. Lomborg’s views are similar to those of some Industry-funded organizations, which start huge activities though the media to confuse the public about issues like global warming.So it was strange to see Mr. Lomborg’s book go largely unchallenged in the media though hisbeliefs were contrary to most scientific opinions. One national newspaper in Canada ran a number of articles and reviews full of words of praise, even with the conclusion that “After Lomborg, the environmental movement will begin to die down.”Such one-sided views should have immediately been challenged. But only a different review appeared in Nature, a respected science magazine with specific readership. The review remarked that Mr. Lomborg’s “preference for unexamined materials is incredible (不可信的)”。
