2016高考英语二轮阅读理解练习(1)及答案

2016高考英语二轮阅读理解练习（1）及答案2016高考英语阅读理解--日常生活类Papa’s Straw HatPapa was a ranger. He worked with horses. He always wore clean clothes with a hat even when he worked. His hat was always the same kind of a cowboy hat- large black hat of heavy wool. He wore his hat full and high. I think he wanted to look taller than he really was.Mama was proud of the way he looked when he wore his hat and his best clothes. But in some way she got the idea that papa would lose his hair if he kept wearing a heavy wool cowboy hat in the hot weather. She began to talk about his hats.“Papa,” she said one day, “why don't you get a nice cool straw hat? That heavy wool cowboy hat may cause losing hair!” Papa laughed at her and explained that the horses wouldn’t recognize him if he changed the hat. But she didn’t believe him.Mama talked and talked about the hat all summer long. At last papa answered, a little angry, “It would not the cowboy hat but a wife’s talking about the hat that makes me lose my hair.”Mama had a very serious look on her face. She went straight out and later came home with a straw hat. It was a bad year for ranger and we didn't have much money. She thought that if she spent the money for a straw hat, papa would wear it. When papa saw the hat, his face got red. Without a word, he pulled the straw hat down over his head until it hid his eyes and went on to train the horses.He was a good ranger and gentle to his horses. But as papa got close to the horses this time, they jumped high into the air, raising their front feet. All of them ran around in the rounded field and then raced toward the barn. Papa began to shout “Woo boys. Steady boys, steady.” But there was nothing equal to.Papa walked back straight to the stove in the kitchen, pushed the straw hat deep downinto the fire then turned to mama, in a way that even frightened me. “Now listen to me, mama. Understand this I will never wear a straw hat or any other kind of hat my horses do not like.” Then he put on his wool cowboy hat and walked out of the house.I never heard mama talk any more about hats. Perhaps, that is why when papa died many years later, there was a round spot on the top of his head where there was no hair.【小题1】According to the passage, a ranger is _______.A．a person wearing a woolen hatB．a position requiring clean clothesC．a person training horses for some purposeD．a person riding a carriage with horses【小题2】Mama bought papa a straw hat because _______.A．most cowboys preferred to wear itB．she was worried about his healthC．a woolen one didn’t suit papaD．it was cheap and she could save money【小题3】What quality can we learn from papa?A．Gentle. B．Patient. C．Committed. D．Modest.【小题4】It can be learned from the story that _______.A．this family were not rich but diligentB．papa didn’t love the straw hat and mamaC．protecting hair was very importantD．a cowboy hat was useful on farming阅读理解。

广东番禺县2016高考英语阅读理解二轮选练（5）【2014模拟】阅读理解。

请认真阅读下列短文 ,从短文后各题所给的A.B. C.D四个选项中 ,选出最佳选项。

Scientists from the University of East Anglia have identified four new man-made gases that are contributing to the damage to the ozone(臭氧) layer. Two of the gases are accumulating at a rate that is causing concern among researchers.Worries over the growing ozone hole have seen the production of chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) gases restricted since the mid 1980s. But the precise origin of these new, similar substances remains a mystery.Lying in the atmosphere, the ozone layer plays a critical role in blocking harmful UV rays, which cause cancers in humans and reproductive problems in animals.Scientists from the British Antarctic Survey were the first to discover a huge "hole" in the ozone over Antarctica in 1985. The evidence quickly pointed to CFC gases, which were invented in the 1920s, and were widely used in refrigeration. Extraordinarily, global action was rapidly agreed to deal with CFCs and the Montreal Protocol to limit these substances came into being in 1987. A total global ban on production came into force in 2010.Now, the newly discovered four new gases can destroy ozone and are getting into the atmosphere from as yet unidentified sources. Three of the gases are CFCs and one is a hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC), which can also damage ozone.The research has shown that four gases were not around in the atmosphere at all until the 1960s, which suggests they are man-made. The scientists discovered the gases by analyzing polar snow pack. Air from this snow is a natural archive of what was in the atmosphere up t0 100 years ago. The researchers also looked at modern air samples, collected at remote Cape Grim in Tasmania.They estimate that about 74,000 tonnes of these gases have been released into the atmosphere. Two of the gases are accumulating at significant rates. However, they don't know where the new gases are being released from and this should be investigated. Possible sources include chemicals for insecticide（杀虫剂） production and solvents （溶液） for cleaning electronic components. The three CFCs are being destroyed very slowly in the atmosphere - so even if emissions（散发） were to stop immediately, they will still be around for many decades to come.Of the four species identified, CFC-113a seems the most worrying as there is a very small but growing emission source somewhere, maybe from agricultural insecticides. We should find it and take it out of production.63. What do we know about the newly discovered gases?A. Some are surely produced by the development of agriculture.B. The CFCs will have a long impact once they are released.C. They gather together in the atmosphere at a medium speed.D. Their amounts are not large enough to cause damage to us.64. The underlined word "archive" in Paragraph 6 is closest to the meaning of"____ "A. stateB. resourceC. phenomenonD. storeroom65. What will the scientists probably attempt to do about the gases next?A. Find out what can replace things like insecticides and put them into use.B. Find out how they destroy ozone and get rid of those in the atmosphere.C. Find out where they are exactly from and stop them from being released.D. Find out if HCFC is more harmful than CFCs and take proper measures.【参考答案】63—65、BDC【2014模拟】阅读理解。

(一)A(2016·辽宁五校联考)It is best known as a city of monument.In the middle of traffic circles or on street corners，you’ll find statues，plaques (匾牌)，and simple blocks of marble there.They honor the people who helped shape the US.And on Oct.20，Lonely Planet，one of the world’s largest travel guides，named Washington D．C.the No.1 city in its list of “Best in Travel 2015”．“The year 2015 is a fantastic year to visit Washington D．C.，”Tom Hall，editorial director of Lonely Planet，told The Guardian. “The 150th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln’s assassination(暗杀) makes this year big for Washington D．C.The famous top hat of American’s 16th president and the gun that fired the deadly shot will be on display.Add that to its incredible eats，performing arts and museums.The nation’s capital is looking better than ever.”There are a lot of free museums in the city.When British scientist James Smithson died in 1829，he left a will giving his money to the United States to open a museum at Washington，under the name of the Smithsonian Institution.It has turned out to be a wonderful gift，and the institution now covers 19 museums.And of course，no Washington tour is complete without seeing the White House，the Capitol，and the Supreme Court，which are home to the three pillars (核心) of the US government.But there is more to explore in the center of US power.It is a city you can walk across，with wideopen avenues，old neighborhoods，and river views.And as USA_Today notes，diversity is another reason to “fall in love with the city”．“There is a lot of diversity in Washington D．C.，seen in its people，its neighborhoods and its landmarks.From Chinatown to Little Ethiopia，visiting the nation’s capital is like seeing the world in one trip，”said the newspaper.【解题导语】本文列举种种理由力证华盛顿是2015年最值得旅游的地方。

2016届高考高三英语二轮专题复习：阅读理解

2014届高考高三英语二轮专题复习：阅读理解AThe original plans for the park were on 8 acres next to the Burbank studios where his employees and families could go to relax. Although, World War II put those plans on hold. During the war, Disney had time to come up with new ideas, and creations for his magical park. It was soon clear that 8 acres wouldn't be enough.Finally in 1953, he had the Stanford Research Institute conduct a survey for a 100-acre site, outside of Los Angeles. He needed space to build rivers, waterfalls, and mountains; he would have flying elephants and giant teacups; a fairy-tale castle, moon rockets, and a scenic railway; all inside a magic kingdom he called "Disneyland."The search for the best venue for the park ended in the rural Anaheim, California with a purchase of a 160-acre orange grove near the junction of the Santa Ana Freeway (I-5) and Harbor Boulevard.Construction for Disneyland began on July 21, 1954, 12 months before the park was scheduled to open.Some 160-acres of citrus trees had been cleared and 15 houses moved to make room for the park. However, when the real designing came around, Disney met with inevitable questions. How do you make believable wild animals, that aren't real? How do you make a Mississippi paddle ship? How do you go about building a huge castle in the middle of Anaheim, California? Disney asked his movie studio staff for answers. The design of Disneyland was something never done before. There would be four uniquely different theme parts: Adventureland, Frontierland, Fantasyland Tomorrow land. Bit by bit, Disneyland got ready for Opening Day. The staff worked around the clock to get ready.But opening day was a terrible disaster. Besides the terrible opening day conditions, the park did eventually pick up. By 1965, ten years after opening day, 50 Million visitors had come through the gates.36. The passage is mainly about___________.A. How Disneyland came into beingB.

Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a similar problem. They often accept the opinions or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without thinking. They try to find a solution by trial and error. However, when all these methods fail, the person with a problem has to start analyzing. There are six stages in analyzing a problem.First the person must recognize that there is a problem. For example, Sam’s bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must see that there is a problem with his bicycle.Next the thinker must define the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must find out the reason why it does not work. For instance, he must determine if the problem is with the gears, the brakes, or the frame. He must make his problem more specific.Now the person must look for information that will make the problem clearer and lead to possible solutions. For instance, suppose Sam decided that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the gear wheels. At this time, he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about gears. He can talk to his friends at the bike shop. He can look at his gears carefully. After studying the problem, the person should have several suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an illustration. His suggestions might be: put oil on the gear wheels; buy new gear wheels and replace the old ones; tighten or loosen the gear wheels.Eventually one suggestion seems to be the solution to the problem. Sometimes the final idea comes very suddenly because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a new way. Sam, for example, suddenly sees that there is a piece of chewing gum between the gear wheels. He immediately realizes the solution to his problem: he must clean the gear wheels.Finally the solution is tested. Sam cleans the gear wheels and finds that afterwards his bicycle works perfectly. In short , he has solved the problem.43. By referring to Sam’s broken bicycl e, the author intends to _________.A. illustrate the ways to repair his bicycleB. discuss the problems of his bicycleC. tell us how to solve a problemD. show us how to analyze a problem44. Which of the following is NOT true?A. People do not analyze the problem they meet.B. People often accept the opinions or ideas of other people.C. People may learn from their past experience.D. People can not solve some problems they meet.45. As used in the last sentence, the phrase “in short” means _________.A. in the short termB. in detailC. in a wordD. in the end46. . In analyzing a problem we should do all the following except .A. recognize and define the problemB. look for information to make the problem clearerC. have suggestions for a possible solutionD. find a solution by trial or mistakeDThe campaign is over. The celebrations have ended. And the work for US president-elect Barack Obama has begun.The 47-year-old politician rose to the highest post because of his stand against the war in Iraq and his plans to fix a weak economy. But what will the first 47-year-old African-American president do for race relations?Obama’s victory appears to have given blacks and other minorities a true national role model. For years, many looked to athletes and musicians for inspiration. As Darius Turner, an African-American high school student in Los Angeles, told the Los Angeles Times, “Kobe doesn’t have to be e verybody’s role model anymore.”Recent polls（民意测验）also suggest that Obama’s victory has given Americans new optimism about race relations. For example, a USA Today poll found that two-thirds of Americans believe relations between blacks and whites “will finally be worked out”. This is the most hopeful response since the question was first asked during the civil rights revolution in 1963.However, it’s still too early to tell whether Obama’s presidency will begin to solve many of the social problems facing low-income black communities.Although blacks make up only 13 percent of the US population, 55 percent of all prisoners are African-American. Such numbers can be blamed on any number of factors on America’s racist past, a failure of government policy and the collapse(瓦解)of the family unit in black communities.It is unlikely that Obama will be able to reverse (扭转) such trends overnight. However, Bill Bank, an expert of African-American Studies, says that eventually young blacks need to find role models in their own communities. “That’s not Martin Luther King, and not Barack Obama,” he told the Los Angeles Times. “It’s actually the people closest to them. Barack only has so much influence.”In the opinion of black British politician Trevor Phi llips, Obama’s rise will contribute more to multiculturalism than to race relations in the US.“When the G8 meets, the four most important people in the room will be the president of China, the prime minister of India, the prime minister of Japan and Ba rak Obama,” he told London’s The Times newspaper. “It will be the first time we’ve seen that on our television screens. That will be a huge psychological shift (心理转变) for both the white people and the colored ones in the world.”47. For years, before Obama was elected president of the US, __________.A. Kobe was the only role model for all the blacksB. blacks could only find role models on the basketball courtC. minorities in America couldn’t find role models in their real lifeD. American blacks had no role model who was successful in political area48. According to Bill Bank, ____________.A. it’s better for young blacks to find role models in those who are close to themB. young blacks should not be so much influenced by ObamaC. blacks should find other role models because Obama is far from their realityD. Obama is not the proper role model for African-Americans49. What would be the best title for this passage?A. The First African-American PresidentB. America’s New R ole ModelC. Obama-- A Successful Black .D. Choosing a Right Role Model50. What will be the huge psychological shift Trevor mentioned at the end of the passage?A. The other three leaders all support Obama.B.

阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项(A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。

Batteries are included, but the charger’s not. The Nokia E-Cuconcept phone doesn’t need to plug in; it charges from any heatsource. Designer Patrick Hyland says it can even work off the warmthof your pocket. The first time“it would take approximately sevenhours to reach full charge, then after that it’s continuously chargingby keeping the phone in areas between 86 degrees and 104 degreesFahrenheit. ”That’s one hot pocket.He’s put a thermo generator(热偶发电器)inside the phone that transforms heat into electric potential energy. To better conduct the heat to that little power plant in your pocket, the E-Cu(E for energy, Cu for copper)is coated by copper backing with heat sinks like those normally used to keep electronics from overheating.Nokia doesn’t have current plans to build the phone, so for now it remains a concept. But Hyland says he’s open to anyone who wants to cooperate.For Americans this technology would certainly be convenient. It would also save a bit on energy bills and waste. “Annually, unwanted phone chargers produce 51, 000 tons of waste in additi on to the greenhouse gases creat ed by the production of the electricity needed to charge them, ”Hyland says. So a charger-free phone is also a green phone. Though adapting our plug-in habits would help a group of people, most cell phone related energy use comes from leaving your charger plugged in all day unnecessarily.The real potential for charger-free cell phone technology is what it could enable places where plugging in isn’t an option, like rural areas in the developing world.Cell phones are spreading faster than power lines and bringing with them countless opportunities, aid and health advances. A phone like the E-Cu, if it ever comes to be, would enable all manner of expanded aid and development by phone projects. Let’s hope Patrick finds a partner. 【文章大意】本文介绍的是一种不用插入电源、在口袋里即可获得电能的手机。

Engineering students are supposed to be examples of practicality and rationality(理性), but when it comes to my college education I am an idealist and a fool. In high school I wanted to be an electrical engineer and , of course, any reasonable student with my aims would have chosen a college with a large engineering department, many famous professors and lots of good labs and research equipment. But that’s not what I did.I chose to study engineering in a small liberal-arts(文科) university that doesn’t even offer a major in electrical engineering. Obviously, this was not a practical choice; I came here for more noble reasons. I wanted a broad education that would provide me with flexibility and a value system to guide me in my job.I wanted to open my eyes and expand my vision by communicating with people who weren’t studying science or engineering. My parents, teachers and other adults praised me for such a wise choice. The told me I was wise and grown-up beyond my18 years, and I believed them.I headed off to the college and sure I was going to have an advantage over those students who went to big engineering “factories” where they didn’t care if you had values or were flexible. I was going to be a complete engineer: technical expert and excellent humanist all in one.Now I’m not so sure. Somewhere along the way my noble ideas crashed into reality, as all noble ideas finally do. After three years of struggling to balance math, physics and engineering courses with liberal-arts courses, I have learned there are reasons why few engineering students try to reconcile engineering with liberal-arts courses in college.The reality that has blocked my path to become the typical successful student is that engineering and the liberal arts simply don’t mix as easily as I supposed in high school. Individually they shape a person in very different ways. The struggleto reconcile the two fields of study is difficult.1. At present, the writer is studying_________.A. Engineering at a college with a large engineering department.B. Engineering in a small liberal-arts university.C. Noble ideas have nothing to do with reality.D. The writer considered his noble ideas as valuable as others.2. What problem has the writer found in his study at college?A. He can’t get used to the engineer factory.B. Math, physics and engineering courses are too difficult to learn.C. It’s hard to combine engineering with the literal arts.D. He has made no progress in the literal arts.3. How has the writer felt about his choice?A. He felt proud at the beginning but a bit doubtful at present.B. He has been feeling positive all the time.C. he has decided to give up.D. He shares the same opinion with his parents and teachers.参考答案1—3、BACA2016高考训练题。

阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中, 选出最佳选项。

Mention the terms Italian Culture and Renaissance Art and one is immediately reminded of the mysterious smile of Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa.The renaissance period had a deep effect on European culture development. Having its beginnings in Italy，by the 16th century, it had spread to the rest of Europe。

Its influence was felt in different fields such as philosophy, literature, religion, science, politics，and, of course, art. The scholars of the renaissance period applied the humanist method in every field of study, and wanted human emotion and realism in art.Renaissance scholars studied the ancient Latin and Greek texts, searching the monastic（修道院的)libraries of Europe for works of ancient times that had become obscure，in their hunt for improving and perfecting their worldly knowledge. This was completely different from the religion that Christianity（基督教)stressed。

About 30 years ago, I left Cuba for the United States with my son. After getting settled finally in Brunswick, New Jersey, I enrolled(注册) my son in kindergarten. Several weeks later, my son's teacher asked me to meet him at his office.In the teacher's office, an exchange of greetings was followed by his questions：“Is your son mentally retarded(弱智的)? Does he suffer from any kind of mental disability？”Was he talking about my wonderful Scola? No, no, it can't be. What a helpless, lonely moment!I told him that Scola was a quiet, sweet little boy, instead. I asked him why he was asking me all these questions.My son could not follow the teacher's directions, he told me, and thus, Scola was disrupting the class. Didn't he know my son did not speak English yet?He was angry：“Why hasn't your son been taught to speak English? Don't you speak English at home？”No, I didn't speak English at home, I replied. I was sure my son would learn English in a couple of months, and I didn't want him to forget his native language. Well, wrong answer! What kind of person would not speak in English to her son at home and at all times? “Are you one of those people who come to this country to save dollars and send them back to their country, never wanting to be a part of this society？”Needless to say, I tried to tell him I was not one of “those people”. Then he told me the meeting was over, and I left.As I had expected, my son learned to speak English fluently before the school year was over. He went on to graduate from college and got a job, earning close to six figures. He travels widely and leads a well－adjusted, contented life. And he has benefited from being bilingual(双语的)．Speaking more than one language allows people to communicate with others; it teaches people about other cultures and other places—something very basic and obviously lacking in the “educator”I met in New Jersey.57．The teacher asked the author to his office ________．A．to discuss Scola's in－class performanceB．to get Scola enrolled in kindergartenC．to find a language partner for ScolaD．to work out a study plan for Scola58．What does the underlined word “disrupting” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A．Breaking. B．Following.C．Attending. D．Disturbing.59．The author's attitude towards being bilingual may best be described as ________．A．critical B．casualC．positive D．passive60．This text is likely to be selected from a book of________．A．medicine B．educationC．geography D．history【要点综述】本文作者通过说明自己儿子学习语言的过程和他最后的成功经历，说明了“双语”学习的重要性。
