He is presently a corporation lawyer in Miami, Florida.What is the main idea of the passage?A.How Joshua Bingham became a lawyer.B.Bingham is a diligent student.C.Joshua Bingham received excellent education.D.A good lawyer needs good education.2.Two friends have an argument that breaks up their friendship forever, even though neither one can remember how the whole thing got started. Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the country. In fact, according to an official report on youth violence, “In our country today, the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment, but the terrible reality of violence.” Given that this is the case, why aren't students taught to manage conflicts the way they are taught to solve maths problems, drive cars, or stay physically fit?This article is mainly about________.A.the lives of school childrenB.the cause of arguments in schoolsC.how to analyse youth violenceD.how to deal with school conflicts3.Grownups are often surprised by how well they remember something they learned as children but have never practised ever since. A man who has not had a chance to go swimming for years can still swim as well as ever when he gets back in the water. He can get on a bicycle after many years and still ride away. He can play with a ball as well as his son. A mother who has not thought about the words for years can teach her daughter the poem that begins “Twinkle, twinkle, little star” or remember the story of Cinderella or Goldilocks.What is the main idea?A.People remember well what they learned in childhood.B.Children have a better memory than gro wnups.C.Poem reading is a good way to learn words.D.Stories for children are easy to remember.4.One of the greatest contributions to the first Oxford English Dictionary was also one of its most unusual. In 1879, Oxford University in England asked Professor James Murray to serve as an editor for what was to be the most ambitious dictionary in the history of the English language. It would include every English word possibleand would give not only the definition but also the history of the word and quotations (引文)showing how it was used.This was a huge task. So Murray had to find volunteers from Britain, the United States, and the British colonies to search every newspaper, magazine, and book ever written in English. Hundreds of volunteers responded, including William Chester Minor. Dr Minor was an American surgeon who had served in the civil war and is now living in England. He gave his address as “Broadmoor, Crowthorne, Berkshire”, 50 miles from Oxford.Minor joined the army of volunteers sending words and quotations to Murray. Over the next years, he became one of the staff's most valued contributors.But he was also a mystery. In spite of many invitations, he would always decline to visit Oxford. So in 1897, Murray finally decided to travel to Crowthorne himself. When he arrived, he found Minor locked in a booklined cell at the Broadmoor Asylum for the criminally insane.Murray and Minor became friends, sharing their love of words. Minor continued contributing to the dictionary, sending in more than 10,000 submissions in 20 years. Murray continued to visit Minor regularly, sometimes taking walks with him around the asylum grounds.In 1910, Minor left Broadmoor for an asylum in his native America. Murray was at the port to wave goodbye to his remarkable friend.Minor died in 1920, seven years before the first edition of the Oxford English Dictionary was completed. The 12 volumes defined 414,825 words, and thousands of them were contributions from a very scholarly and devoted asylum patient.What does the text mainly talk about?A.The history of the English language.B.The friendship between Murray and Minor.C.Minor and the first Oxford English Dictionary.D.Broadmoor Asylum and its patients.二、细节理解1.Below is a selection about Guinness(吉尼斯) World Records.Top 6 Unusual Guinness World Records· Fastest 100m running on all foursThe 2008 Guinness World Records Day was, according to CWR, their biggest day of recordbreaking ever, with more than 290,000 people taking part in record attempts in 15 different countries. Kenichi Ito's record attempt was part of this special day. He is just another example of Japanese with“super powers”. His “super power” is to run with great speed on all fours.

安徽省高考英语二轮小专题复习 落实应用之故事型阅读理解
专题限时训练(十三) [故事型阅读理解] (限时:25分钟)AI still remember—my hands and my fingers still remember—what used to lie in store for us on our return to school from the holidays. The trees in the school yard would be in full leaf again and the old leaves would be lying around like a muddy sea of leaves.“Get that all swept up!” the headmaster would tell us. “I want the whole place cleaned up, at once!” There was enough work there, to last over a week. Especially since the only tools with which we were provided were our hands, our fingers, our nails. “Now see that it's done properly, and be quick about it,” the headmaster would say to the older pupils, “or you'll have to answer for it!”So at an order from the older boys we would all line up like peanuts about to cut and gather in crops. If the work was not going as quickly as the headmaster expected, the big boys, instead of giving us a helping hand, used to beat us with branches pulled from the trees. In order to avoid these blows, we used to bribe(贿赂) the older boys with the juicy cakes we used to bring for our midday meal. And if we happened to have any money on us, the coins changed hands at once. If we did not do this, if we were afraid of going home with an empty stomach or an empty purse, the blows were redoubled. They hit us so violently and with such evil enjoyment that even a deaf and dumb person would have realized that we were being whipped not so much to make us work harder, but rather to beat us into a state of obedience(服从) in which we would be only too glad to give up our food and money.Occasionally one of us, worn out by such calculated cruelty, would have the courage to complain to the headmaster. He would of course be very angry, but the punishment he gave the older boys was always very small—nothing compared to what they had done to us. And the fact is that however much we complained, our situation did not improve in the slightest. Perhaps we should have let our parents know what was going on, but somehow we never dreamed of doing so; I don't know whether it was loyalty or pride that kept us silent, but I can see now that we were foolish to keep quiet about it, for such beating is completely foreign to our nature.1. Th e statement “my hands and my fingers still remember” (Para.1) means that “________”.A.the author's hands were severely injured in the cleaning upB.the author seldom did such hard work as the cleaning upC.the author was bullied by the big boys in the cleaning upD.the author's hands were his only tool for the cleaning2. The headmaster would tell the students to clean up the school yard at the beginning of the term because________.A.he was too lazyB.there were many fallen leaves on the groundC.the school yard was covered with mudD.the students didn't finish their homework3. The headmaster asked the older boys to________.A.beat those who worked slowlyB.treat the small boys as peanutsC.take charge of the process of the cleaningD.do the cleaning all by themselves4. According to Para.3, if the author had any money on him, he most probably________.A.gave it to the big boys so as to please themB.gave it as a bribe to the headmasterC.spent it all on his midday mealD.spent it buying midday meals for the big boys5. When receiving complaints, the headmaster would deal with the big boys by means of ________.A.slight punishmentB.harsh criticismC.complete indifferenceD.good beatingBThe 30 miles of steep roads that snake through the mountains of Logan Canyon in Utah are enough to make most drivers' hands sweat. But Andersen, a 46yearold father of four, wasn't expecting any trouble on the road last New Year's Eve, when he set off for a ski trip to the Bear River Mountains with nineyearold daughter Mia, fouryearold son Baylor, and nineyearold n eighbour Kenya. Andersen had driven through the Canyon hundreds of times over the years.The weather was fine,but the higher they drove, the more slippery the roads became. Rounding a sharp Uturn at mile marker 473, Andersen saw a truck that had skated off the road and immediately tapped his brakes. In an instant, the car was sliding at 25 miles per hour towards the shoulder of the highway, then rolling down a steep tenfoot dam towards the extremely cold Logan River. As it hit the water, the car tipped towards the passenger side, hesitated, and then rolled onto its roof and sank into the river.There was no time to tell the kids what to do. The crash had broken a few windows, and within seconds, the upsidedown car was filled with water. “It was frightening how fast we were completely underwater,” remembers Andersen, a softspoken product development manager. “You're thinking, is this how it's all going to end?”Having lost all sense of direction, Andersen began to search the freezing water for the kids. Mia had been right next to him in the front seat; now, in the blackness, he couldn't find her. I thought,“If I don't get out, maybe none of us are going to get out.” Andersen got out of his seat belt, swam through a broken window, and, deeply and quickly, breathed air at the surface. That's when he saw a group of men, about ten in all, appear at the top of the dam. One after another, they raced down into the water. Helping onto safety all the three children, they began to shout atthe father, “Who else is in the car?” Andersen says respec tfully, “It_was_like_the_sight_of_angels_(天使). ”1. What might be the main reason for the car accident?A.The sharp Uturn.B.The steep dam.C.The sudden brake.D.A truck hitting the car.2. Andersen didn't expect any trouble on the road because ________.A.he was familiar with the roadB.he was good at drivingC.his hands didn't have sweatD.the weather was fine3. What can be learned from the last paragraph?A.Andersen lost conciousness in the water.B.Strangers helped Andersen out of the car.C.Andersen liked Mia most among the children.D.Strangers teamed together to save the three children.4. The underlined sentence is to express Andersen's feeling of being________.A.tiredB.excitedC.doubtfulD.grateful5. Which of the following can be the best title of the text?A.Stay calm when in troubleB.Drive rounding a UturnC.Miracle rescue from an icy riverD.Mystery of the Bear River MountainsCDetective Keeling took his client—a goodlooking lady into the back yard of the store together. The lady opened a door in the wall and they entered the small room behind the store. They crossed the room to a locked door.Mr Keeling took some special keys from his pocket. Moments later, one of the keys unlocked the door. The lady went into the store. She said she would hide under the table to keep watch on her husband. Mr Keeling did not follow her.The detective went quickly to the policeman's house. Then the two men hurried to the jewellery store. They looked through the window. The policeman was surprised. He spoke to Mr Keeling,“I don't understand. You told me, ‘Robbins took a young woman to a restaurant.’ Where is she?”“There she is!” said Mr Keeling. He pointed through the window.“Do you know the lady with Robbins?” asked the policeman.“That's his secret friend,” said Mr Keeling.“No! You're wrong! That's Robbins' wife,” said the policeman. “I've known her for fifteen years.”“What?” the detective shouted. His face became pale. “Who is under the table in the store?”He started to kick the door of the jewellery store.Mr Robbins came to the door and opened it. The policeman and the detective ran into the store.“Look under that table!” shouted the detective. “Be quick!”The policeman lifted the cloth and put his arm under the table. He pulled out a black dress, a black veil and a woman's wig(假发).“Is this young lady your wife?” Mr Keeling asked the jeweller. He pointed at the woman.“Yes! She is my wife!” said Mr Robbins angrily. “Why did you kick my door? Why are those clothes under my table?”“Please check all the jewellery in your store, Mr Robbins,” the policeman said. “Is anything missing?”Some diamond rings and some expensive necklaces were missing. The missing jewellery was worth $800.Later that night, Mr Keeling was sitting in his office. He was looking through a big book of photographs. They were photographs of criminals. The policeman had brought the book to the detective's office. Suddenly, Mr Keeling stopped turning the pages. He looked at a picture of a handsome young man with a familiar face.The next morning, Mr Keeling paid the jeweller $800, then closed his office.1.

专题限时训练(十二) [人物型阅读理解] (限时:25分钟)APatti Page, the topselling female artist of the 1950s with more than 100 million records sold, died on January 2nd, 2013, when she was 85. She was one of the most beloved singers of the postwar era. Ta ke her Tennessee Waltz for example, it sold more than 10 million copies and was her biggest hit.Born in Claremore, Oklahoma, a small town near Tulsa, Page originally dreamed of a career in commercial art. Her first job in the art department at a local radio station soon led to performing on her own 15minute programme.At the age of 20, Page was discovered by bigband leader Jack Rael, who quit his job to become her manager. In 1948, she signed her first recording contract with Mercury Records and two years later enjoyed her first hit record. She stayed with Mercury for the next 14 years and recorded hit after hit including: With My Eyes Wide Open, I'm Dreaming, and Old Cape Cod.Her last hit was Hush…Hush, Sweet Charlotte, recorded for the Bette Davis movie of the same name. And then, there was Doggie in the Window. The creative tune was a huge hit, but with its repeated barking sounds and silly lyrics(歌词), the song has been used by many people as an example of all that was wrong with pop music in the early 1950s.Throughout the 1950s, Patti Page made regular appearances on television variety shows and in 1957 she was chosen to host the musical programme, The Big Record. The following year, Page appeared in her own CBS television series, The Patti Page Show. She continued to record and perform into the 21st century, most recently releasing an album of songs for children, a Christmas record, and a new “best of” collection.Besides music, Patti Page did a bit of acting. She costarred with the Oscarwinning Burt Lancaster in Elmer Gantry, and also starred on stage in the musical play Annie Get Your Gun.1. According to the passage, Patti Page ________.A.wanted to be a singer as a childB.was born in a small town in 1927C.was known mainly for her acting skillsD.started her work as a TV programme hostess2. According to the passage, which one of her following recorded songs was criticized?A.Old Cape Cod.B.Hush…Hush, Sweet Charlotte.C.Doggie in the Window.D.With My Eyes Wide Open, I'm Dreaming.3. Tennessee Waltz is mentioned in the passage in order to show that ________.A.Patti Page was a beloved singerB.Patti Page's songs were successfulC.Patti Page was the topselling female artistD.Patti Page was good at recording songs4. We can know from the passage that Patti Page ________.A.got to know Jack Rael in 1945B.left Mercury Records at the age of 35C.appeared in The Patti Page Show in 1957D.wrote many songs for children in her late life5. It is inferred from the passage that ________.A.Patti Page gave up singing in public in her late lifeB.Patti Page's gift in art began to be shown in her teensC.Patti Page's great success was due to her hard work and others' helpD.Patti Page was not only a successful singer but also a successful actress BAmerican actor Johnny Depp can best be described as unconventional. From his early life, his path into acting and even in his choice of movie roles, we can see that Depp has seldom taken the easy road. His willingness to take risks and do the unexpected has made Depp one of the few Hollywood actors able to achieve huge commercial success while maintaining his artistic reputation.Born in 1963, Depp was somewhat troublesome as a youth, occasionally turning to pettycrime and drugs. When his parents divorced in 1978, Depp dropped out of school against his mother's wishes and started a music band called the Kids. Although the band achieved some success, they were seldom able to make_ends_meet,_with Depp often unable to pay his rent, sleeping on friends' sofas and even in his car.In 1983, the everoptimistic Depp and his new wife, Lori Anderson, moved to Hollywood, California to further Depp's musical career. But life there continued to be a struggle and Depp was forced to take a job selling pens door to door to support his new family. His luck changed when Lori's exboyfriend, the famous actor Nicholas Cage, impressed by Depp's good looks and intelligence, suggested he become an actor and helped him get a small part in a movie. Several other minor movie roles—and a divorce from Lori—followed, before Depp got his big break three years later. He landed the leading role in the television series 21 Jump Street, playing a youthful undercover police officer. The hugely popular show turned Depp in to a teenage heartthrob overnight. He appeared on the cover of countless magazines and was much sought after by movie producers, eager to exploit his popularity with teenage girls.But Depp left 21 Jump Street after three years, when it was at the height of its popularity, later admitting that he hated the show's unoriginal storylines and his “pretty boy” character. In the decade that followed, Depp rejected repeated offers of “pretty boy” roles in bigbudget Hollywood films. Instead he established himself as a serious, somewhat dark, peculiar performer, consistently selecting roles in smaller, independent films that surprise critics and audiences alike.Even in the movie that made Depp an international superstar, The Pirates of the Caribbean (2003), he was barely recognizable as Captain Jack Sparrow, the British, longhaired goldentoothed pirate. This and subsequent hit movies have placed Deppat the very top of the commercial film industry (with a paycheck of $20 million for each such movie), but he still continues to make the smaller, stranger films for which he is so greatly admired.1. As a youth, Depp could be described as a ________.A.serious criminalB.trouble makerC.drug addictD.successful musician2. The underlined expression “make ends meet” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to “________”.A.get together after a showB.meet their audienceC.play to the endD.earn enough to live3. In which order did the following events take place in Depp's life?a. met Nicholas Cageb. started a band called the Kidsc. played a British pirated. sold pens door to doore. got married to Lori Andersonf. starred in a TV showA.d, b, e, a, c, fB.b, e, d, a, f, cC.a, b, f, c, d, eD.e, d, a, c, f, b4. Why did Depp leave the TV show 21 Jump Street?A.The show was no longer popular.B.He wanted to perform in movies.C.He thought the show was terrible.D.He rejected planned changes to his role.5. Depp's choice of movie roles throughout most of his career suggests that ________.A.he valued interesting work over moneyB.he believed he couldn't play “pretty boy” roles wellC.he was very popular with Hollywood movie producersD.he was more interested in shocking audiences than entertainingCGreg Woodburn, a student at the University of Southern California, spends a lot of time cleaning sneakers he collected. But soon the shoes will be sent to poor children in the United States and 20 other countries, thanks to Woodburn's Share Our Shoes (S. O. S.) charity.A high school track star in the town of Ventura, California, Woodburn was treated in hospital for months with knee and hip injuries.“I started thinking about the health benefits, the friendship and the confidenceI got from running, ” he says,“And I realized there are children who don't even have shoes. ”Woodburn gathered up his old sneakers, then asked his friends to donate. His goal was to have 100 pairs by Christmas 2006. When he collected more than 500 pairs, he decided to turn the shoe d rive into a yearround endeavour.Back then, the sneakers came from donation boxes at the YMCA and the local sporting goods store and from doortodoor pickups. Woodburn has now set up collection boxes at two high schools, city gym and recreation centre. He has started accepting adult sizes and sandals(凉鞋). So far, S. O. S. has collected and donated more than 3, 000 pairs.Woodburn has cleaned all the shoes. After sorting the shoes by size, Woodburn selects the good shoes for the washing machine and the wor nout ones for recycling.To ship the footwear, Woodburn teamed with Sports Gift, a nonprofit organization that provides soccer and baseball equipment to children around the world. Keven Baxter, founder and president, says, “We'd send kids balls and shoes. I've heard that for many of these kids, these old sneakers are the only shoes they had. They wear them to school and to do sports. So Greg's running shoes were a nice addition for us.”For many recipients(接受者), the shoes represent opportunity. Two young boys in Southern California attended school on alternate days because they shared a pair of shoes. They were too big for one boy and too small for the other. Thanks to S. O. S., each brother received his own pair of shoes. The boys now attend school daily and enjoy their learning. When they graduate, they say, they will help a stranger, just as Woodburn helped them.1. What caused Greg Woodburn to donate old shoes for poor children?A.The benefits from playing sports.B.News about some poor children.C.His reflection on school life.D.The medical treatment he received.2. When collecting more sneakers than expected, Woodburn decided to________.A.include adult sizes and sandalsB.set up branches in different citiesC.collect shoes throughout the yearD.expand his endeavour in the whole city3. How did Woodburn manage to deliver the shoes collected?A.By sending them by mail.B.By working with Sports Gift.C.By advertising for those in need.D.By offering them from door to door.4. What can we learn from Keven Baxter's remarks?A.Sports Gift is popular around the world.B.Many children need Greg's old sneakers.C.Greg's running shoes are the best gifts for children.D.Children need more soccer and baseball equipment than shoes.5.

专题限时训练(十四)[时闻型阅读理解](限时:25分钟)AMIT researchers and their colleagues are working to find out whether energy from trees can power a network of sensors (传感器) to prevent spreading forest fires.What they learn could also raise the possibility of using trees as silent guards along the nation's borders to discover potential threats such as smuggled (走私的) radioactive materials.The US Forest Service currently predicts and tracks fires with a variety of tools, including remote automated weather stations. But these stations are expensive and sparsely (稀疏地) distributed. Additional sensors could save trees by providing better local climate data to be used in fire prediction models and earlier warnings. However, recharging or replacing batteries by hand at very hard-to-reach locations makes it impractical and costly.The new sensor system seeks to avoid this problem by developing trees into a self-sustaining power supply. Each sensor is equipped with a battery that can be slowly recharged using electricity produced by the tree. “A single tree doesn't generate a lot of power, but over time the trickle (细流) charge adds up, just like ‘________’”,said Shuguang Zhang, one of the researchers on the project and the associate director of the MIT's Centre for Biomedical Engineering (CBE).The system produces enough electricity to allow the temperature and humidity sensors to wirelessly send out signals four times a day, or immediately if there's a fire. Each signal spreads from one sensor to another, until it reaches an existing weather station that sends the data by satellite to a forestry command centre in Boise, Idaho.Scientists have long known that trees can produce extremely small amounts of electricity. But no one knew exactly how the energy was produced or how to take advantage of the power.1.What are the disadvantages of the remote automated weather stations?A.They cost too much.b.They are of poor quality.c.They are not enough.d.They can't reach remote places.A.a, b B.b, dC.a, c D.b, c2.Which of the following is the best sentence to fill in the blank?A.Far water does not put out near fire.B.All rivers run into the sea.C.Many a little makes a mickle.D.It never rains but it pours.3.What Shuguang Zhang said in Paragraph 4 means that ________.A.a single tree is enough to generate much powerB.the power from the tree can't be storedC.trees can generate enough power for our lifeD.a tree can produce the electricity to meet the needs of a sensor4.What would the author talk about after the last paragraph of the passage?A.The amount of electricity trees produce.B.How trees produce electricity.C.Trees' contribution to society.D.The research process of tree power.5.What would be the best title for the passage?A.Preventing forest fires with tree powerB.Trees can produce electricityC.Tree power in daily lifeD.Developing new energyB(NEW YORK) A French tourist highly praised for rescuing a two-year-old girl in Manhattan said he didn't think twice before diving into the freezing East River.Tuesday's Daily News said 29yearold Julien Duret from France was the man who left the spot quickly after the rescue last Saturday.He lifted the little girl out of the water after she fell off the bank at the South Street Seaport museum. He handed the girl to her father, David Anderson, who had dived in after him.“I didn't think at all,” Duret told the Daily News. “It happened very fast. I reacted very fast.”Duret, an engineer on vacation, was walking with his girlfriend along the pier(码头) when he saw something falling into the water.He thought it was a doll, but realized it was a child when he approached the river. Immediately, he took off his coat and jumped into the water.When he reached the girl, she appeared lifeless, he said. Fortunately, when she was out of the water, she opened her eyes.Anderson said his daughter slipped off the bank when he was adjusting his camera. An ambulance came later for her, said Duret, who was handed dry clothes from onlookers. Duret caught a taxi with his girlfriend shortly after.The rescue happened on the day before he left for France. Duret said he didn't realize his story of heroism had greatly moved New York until he was leaving the city the next morning.“I don't really think I'm a hero,” said Duret. “Anyone would do the same thing.”1.Why was Duret in New York?A.To meet his girlfriend.B.To spend his holiday.C.To work as an engineer.D.To visit the Andersons.2.What did Duret do shortly after the ambulance came?A.He was interviewed by a newspaper.B.He went to the hospital in the ambulance.C.He disappeared from the spot quickly.D.He asked his girlfriend for his dry clothes.3.Who dived after Duret into the river to save the little girl?A.David Anderson.B.A passerby.C.His girlfriend.D.A taxi driver.4.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.Duret thought twice before he jumped into the cold water.B.Duret dived into the water before the girl's father.C.The rescue happened on the day Duret left for France.D.Duret didn't think he was brave enough to be a hero.5.What is probably the headline of this news report?A.A Careless FatherB.A Poor GirlC.Warmhearted OnlookersD.Brave Frenchman FoundCScientists have not found any signs of life on Mars yet, but they say a robotic vehicle called “Curiosity” is helping them learn a lot about the planet's history and climate.Curiosity landed on Mars in August 2012 after travelling through space for more than eight months. It was sent to Mars by scientists from NASA in the United States.Curiosity is about the size of a car and has six wheels. It also has a robotic arm, cameras, and instruments that allow it to examine things it finds on the surface. Then it sends the information back to the earth.Curiosity's main task is to find out if anything could live on Mars, either now or in the past. On Nov. 2, NASA scientists held a press conference (新闻发布会) to discuss what Curiosity had found in its first two months on Mars.Curiosity has found soil that is similar to the sand formed by volcanoes (火山) on the earth. Scientists say that studying the minerals in Martian soil will help them understand what conditions were like on the planet in the past. Curiosity also found smooth stones like the ones found on river beds and seashores on the earth, where their rough edges have been worn down by water. Mars is very cold and dry now, but scientists say the smooth stones tell them that a river used to run through the place where they were found.Curiosity has been testing the atmosphere around Mars for a type of gas called methane (甲烷), but so far it has not found any. On the earth, most methane is produced by plants or animals. Methane on Mars might indicate that some type of tiny plants or animals lived there.Curiosity is the fourth robotic vehicle to be sent to Mars. It will continue to explore the planet for about two years.1. Which of the following descriptions about Curiosity is TRUE?A.It landed on Mars in January 2012.B.It is small in size and has four arms.C.It took over eight months to arrive in Mars.D.It was sent to Mars by scientists from Russia.2. According to the information sent back by Curiosity, scientists believe that________.A.there's no air on MarsB.Mars is warm and wet nowC.the soil on Mars is richD.there used to be water on Mars3. The underlined word “they”in Paragraph 5 refers to“________”.A.smooth stonesB.riversC.robotic vehiclesD.volcanoes4. We know from the sixth paragraph that________.A.some tiny animals once lived on MarsB.there are no plants or animals on Mars nowC.the atmosphere around Mars is full of methaneD.Curiosity is designed to test the atmosphere around the earth5. What is the main idea of the passage?A.Humans benefit a lot by going to Mars.B.Scientists will stop the research on Mars soon.C.It is possible to build an earthlike environment on Mars.D.A robotic vehicle helps scientists get useful information from Mars.专题限时训练(十四)A【要点综述】本文是一篇新闻报道,介绍了科学家们的发现:树能为预防森林火灾的传感器供电。

安徽省2015年高考英语二轮小专题复习落实应用之阅读与理解12 Active listening is the art of listening to feelings,then reflecting them back.Active listening does not require that you agree with your child's feelings,but it allows your child to feel connected and understood and provides an opportunity to explore those mysterious impulses(冲动)known as emotions.Fouryearold Chrissy ran through the front door,slamming(砰地关上)it so forcefully that the pictures fell off the wall.“I hate Tammy!”she cried. Then Chrissy threw herself onto the sofa in a storm of sobs.Her mom,Diane,looked up from the bills she was going to pay.Resisting the impulse to scold(责骂)Chrissy for slamming the door,she asked quietly,“What's the matter with you,Chrissy?”Chrissy said sadly,“Tammy took my ball! Tammy is bi gger than me.It isn't fair for her to take away my ball.”“It must be pretty frustrating to be picked on by a big girl,”Diane said.“Yeah.I'm mad,”the little girl said firmly.“I don't want to play with her anymore.”She sat quietly for a moment,watching as Diane put stamps on envelopes. After a while,Chrissy said,“Mom,can I go to play out in the backyard?”Diane gave her daughter a hug.Chrissy left,seeming to forget her anger.By simply reflecting back her daughter's underlying feelings,Diane allowed Chrissy the opportunity to explore what was going on for her,and in the process,Chrissy discovered a solution to her own problem.Some other time,Diane might be able to talk with Chrissy about avoiding future problems and perhaps ask her what she could do to express her anger instead of slamming the door.Like most adults,sometimes what children really need is for someone to listen and understand.Active listening opens the door for real connection and problem solving and works toward building a lifelong relationship of love and trust.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A.Active Listening Does Count!B.Children Need to Be Understood!C.It Is Wrong for Children to Express AngerD.Listening Helps Understand What Children Think答案 A [标题概括题。

专题限时训练(三十六) [说明文型读写任务] (限时:每篇30分钟)ADiet is very important in people's life. From 1986 to 2010, people's diet changed a lot. Grain was no longer regarded as the main food. And as the proportion(比例) of fruit and vegetables declined, the consumption of milk and meat increased.What caused these changes? There are two reasons. One is that with the development of science, people began to realize the importance of maintaining a balanced diet. The other is that people had more money to spend and could afford more expensive food. They tried to change their lowpriced diet into a more varied one. They were eager to build up a strong body by improving their living standards.With the development of our economy and improvement of our food supply, further changes will take place in people's diet.[写作内容]1. 以约30个词概括短文的要点。

安徽省高考英语二轮小专题复习 落实应用之社会生活型阅读理解2
专题限时训练(二十一) [社会生活型阅读理解(二)] (限时:25分钟)AIncreased use of the Internet and mobile phones is undermining pupils' capacity for independent study and promoting poor grammar.Cranfield School of Management found almost 6 in 10 schoolchildren were copying information directly from websites for homework tasks without properly reading it.More than a quarter thought it was an acceptable practice, even though they know it was considered plagiarism (剽窃).The study, based on a sample of around 260 pupils aged from 11 to 18 at a secondary school in the Midlands, raised fresh concerns that modern technology was having a destructive effect on young people.Andrew Kakabadse, Professor of International Management Development at Cranfield, said, “Our resea rch shows that technology obsession prevents spelling skills, encourages plagiarism, and disturbs classroom learning.“Despite school policies restricting mobile phone usage, students use the phone frequently, with the majority making calls from the toilets. The mobile phone continues to be a main channel of social communication during the school day.”The report revealed that socalled “textspeak” was increasingly finding it was into pupils' school work.3 in 10 students admit to using text message shortc uts, such as “r u ok” in essays and classroom tasks.It followed a study earlier this year that found almost half of teachers failed to understand some pupils' writing because it was so full of confusing language. Phrases such as “innit” and “Gr8” were reg ularly found in school work.The Cranfield study found that mobile use was so common that many pupils chose to ignore school rules on phones.More than a third said they would use their phones in class, while nearly three quarters said they would not even make an excuse to leave class to answer a phone call.1. The underlined word “undermining” in the first paragraph can best be replaced by “________”.A.determiningB.keepingC.weakeningD.increasing2. It can be inferred from what Kakabadse said that ________.A.he is in favour of students' mobile phone usage at schoolB.he believes schools are responsible for technology obsessionC.the research finds a new way to improve school managementD.it is hard to limit students' mobile phone usage at school3. What can we learn from the passage?A.Most students' writing skills are becoming worse.B.Text message language may affect pupils' language skills.C.Students like to invent new words in their writing.D.30% of pupils often send text messages when studying.4. The passage is mainly about ________.A.the negative effect of technology on students' studyB.technology's positive influence on students' achievementC.the importance of online social communicationD.the rapidly growing role of communication technologies5. What's the attitude of the author to the problem?A.Optimistic.B.Approving.C.Anxious.D.Tolerant.BAn “apple polisher” is one who gives gifts to win friendship or special treatment. It is not exactly a bribe(贿赂), but is close to it.All sorts of people are “apple polishers”, including politicians and people in high offices—just about everybody. Oliver Cromwell, the great English leader, offered many gifts to win the support of George Fox and his party, but failed.There are other phrases meaning the same thing as “applepolishing”—“s oftsoaping” or “butteringup”. A gift is just one way to “softsoap” somebody, or to “butter him up”. Another th at is just as effective is flattery, giving someone high praise—telling him how good he looks, or how well he speaks, or how talented and wise he is.Endless are the ways of flattery. Who does not love to hear it? Only an unusual man can resist the thrill of being told how wonderful he is. In truth, flattery is good medicine for most of us, who get so little of it.We need it to be more sure of ourselves. It cannot hurt unless we get carried away by it. But if we just lap it up for its good value and nourishment, as a cat laps up milk, then we can still remain true to ourselves.Sometimes, however, flattery will get you nothing from one who has had too much of it. A good example is the famous 12th century legend of King Canute of Denmark and England. The king got tired of listening to endless sickening flattery of his courtiers(朝臣). They overpraised him to the skies, as a man of limitless power.He decided to teach them a lesson. He took them to the seashore and sat down. Then he ordered the waves to stop coming in. The tide was too busy to listen to him. The king was satisfied. This might show his followers how weak his power was and how empty their flattery was.1. Which of the following activities has nothing to do with “applepolishing”?A.A boy tells his girlfriend how pretty she looks.B.An employee tells her boss how good he is at management.C.A knight is said to be of limitless power by his followers.D.A teacher praises her students for their talent and wisdom.2. What does the writer want to prove with Cromwell's example?A.Everybody can be an “applepolisher”.B.Cromwell was not a good “applepolisher”.C.George Fox and his party were not “applepolishers”.D.There are people who don't like being “applepolished”.3. Which of the following statements about flattery is TRUE according to the author?A.Too much flattery can carry us away.B.Flattery is too empty to do people any good.C.Flattery can get you nothing but excessive(过度的) pride.D.Flattery is one of the ways to applepolish people.4. Why did King Canute of Denmark and England take his followers to the seashore?A.Because he was sick of his normal life.B.Because he disliked being overpraised any more.C.Because he wanted them to realize how wise he was.D.Because he wanted them to see how weak he was as a king.5. Who does the author think that flattery can do good to?A.Those who are politicians or in high offices.B.Those who lack confidence.C.Those who are really excellent.D.Those who think highly of themselves.COver 70 per cent of the “dou ble singlechild couples” in China need help from their parents in taking care of their own kids, according to a recent survey.Women of China magazine and a consulting company carried out a survey recently on young couples of the “singlechild” generation, the Morning Post reports. The couples surveyed were around 29 and have been married for three years on average, with university education and monthly income of 4,000 yuan($531). Among them, 43.5 per cent have kids.Results show that 71.9 per cent of the young couples have help from their parents in taking care of their kids.Grown up as the “singlechild”, the only child in a family since the family planning policy which was adopted in 1979, this generation depends much on their parents.The parent s of the “singlechild” generation focused more on their children's physical wellbeing rather than their attitudes and values, according to some psychologists.The research also found that the “double singlechild couples” follow a rather traditional value system.Survey shows that 27.5 per cent of them got married after dating for one to two years, 25.2 per cent two to five years, and 20 per cent didn't tie the knot until dating for five years. Also, 30 per cent of the couples were schoolmates, while 43.8 per cent were introduced by someone.Since their marriage is based on enduring relationships, 65.2 per cent of the husbands and 62.9 per cent of the wives think that compromise(妥协)and tolerance(宽容) are necessary in their marriage. Meanwhile, 21.7 per cent of the husbands and37.1 per cent of the wives support the idea that happiness is the key standard fora marriage.1. The best title for the passage should be “________”.A.Mum and Dad, take care of my kid pleaseB.Double singlechild couplesC.The problem of the single childD.A recent survey by Women of China2. Which of the following is NOT supported by the passage?A.The majority of the “double singlechild couples” in China depend much on their parents.B.The parents of the “singlechild” generation cared more about their study and education.C.Onefifth of the couples surveyed didn't get married until dating for five years.D.All the couples surveyed have university education and 30 per cent of them were schoolmates.3. Which of the following descriptions about “double singlechild couples” is TRUE?A.They are single children in either family and they are independent on their parents.B.They are single children in either family and they are dependent on their parents.C.They have at least two children and can afford to support themselves.D.They, who were introduced by someone, follow a rather traditional value system.4. The traditional value system mentioned in the passage refers that________.A.parents are concerned about their children's physical life as well as the spiritual lifeB.most couples were introduced by someone and made dating for a long time C.once begun, “double singlechild couples” marriage will last foreverD.the couples think that compromise and tolerance are necessary in their marriage5. According to the passage, we can learn that ________ is necessary in a marriage.A.wealthB.healthC.understandingD.education专题限时训练(二十一)A【要点综述】使用互联网和手机的学生越来越多了。

[学以致用]When I was growing up in the suburbs of New York,our first local Earth Day was organized around a drive to a town field where families were urged to dump items from their basements for recycling rather than tossing them in the trash.It was an eye-opening concept for a kid in 1970.But as an environmental reporter,I have come to dread(格外可怕)the large amount of deals and promotions that arrive via e-mail or in my office or home mailbox on Earth Day.Like Valentine's Day,Earth Day has become a huge marketing opportunity —aparadoxical(冲突的)way to promote consumption and sell stuff.In fact,Earth Day is such a good sales hook that so-me shops,like Target,have expanded Earth Day into Earth Month.There isn't time to give you a full rundown of the Earth Day shopping opportunities I was alerted to this past week.They included deals on buying bottled water and earth-friendly diaper wipes.My award for the silliest promotion:a plan to gift 25 of the most environmentally conscious stars unique,useful and fabulous “green” products and services,including skin care products,cat litter,cheesecake and artwork.My guess is most of the stuff will end up in celebrities' garbage.What's the author's attitude towards the deals promotions on Earth Day?A.Objective.

安徽省高考英语二轮小专题复习 落实应用之社会生活型阅读理解1
专题限时训练(二十) [社会生活型阅读理解(一)] (限时:25分钟)AI've spent over a year in India, and in those 365 plus days, I've learned a lot about getting around Indian cities. My biggest lessons have been learned through being cheated, particularly by taxi and rickshaw (人力车) drivers, but that doesn't mean those are bad ways to travel, as long as you know what you're doing. Below are the best ways to get around the city of Delhi, India, and tips for how to keep from being the victim of scams (欺诈).Taking taxis is a great way to get around the city of Delhi and chances are, if you arrive in Delhi by plane, as soon as you make it through customs, you'll be swarmed by Indian taxi drivers. At the Delhi airport, be sure to arrange for a taxi to your hotel at one of the two Delhi Traffic Police Taxi Booths. One is inside the airport, and the other is outside. The key is to make sure to go to a booth run by the police, rather than by independent taxi drivers.Rickshaws are one of my favourite ways to get around Indian cities, in part because it's how the locals often travel. Autorickshaws are more common, but bicycle rickshaws are still used in Old Delhi. If you do have a chance to take a bicycle rickshaw, you should do it at least once for a unique experience that should only set you back about 15 rupees. Autorickshaw rates around Delhi range between 30 and 80 rupees, depending on the distance.If you really want to travel around Delhi like the locals, take a public bus. Indian buses become very crowded and most do not have air conditioning. They are, however, very cheap. A bus trip won't set you back any more than 15 rupees, as long as you stay within the city limits. Since Indian buses get so crowded, try to board the bus at the start of the route so you can get a seat.The train is a great way to get around within the city of Delhi. Fares are reasonable, between 6 and 22 rupees. All departure announcements are in both Hindi and English, and tokens can be purchased for between 6 and 22 rupees.1. The author is trying to ________ in Delhi through this text.A.give some advice of travellingB.expect us to travel aroundC.show his/her experiencesD.explain the difficulties of travelling2. To avoid being cheated, you ought to ________ if you want to take a taxi at the Delhi airport.A.pay more to the drivers to keep safeB.show your ticket to the driverC.go to a policerun boothD.go out of the airport3. The author suggests taking a rickshaw in order to ________.A.save some moneyB.enjoy the comfortable tripC.gain a unique experienceD.help the local rickshaw drivers4. What can we infer from the passage?A.You won't have to pay much if you travel around by bus in India.B.It will be difficult for you to get a seat if you get on the bus halfway.C.A rickshaw driver only charges whatever amount you give him.D.You'll have to speak English if you travel around in India.5. Which may be the topic that follows?A.Hotel recommendations in DelhiB.Weather conditions in DelhiC.Food and drink in DelhiD.Car rentals in DelhiBLife is to be enjoyed. There's no point in giving up something you enjoy unless you get something back that's even better. When people eat more healthfully, exercise, quit smoking, and manage stress better, they find that they feel so much better that it reconstructs the reason for making these changes from fear of dying to joy of living. The latest studies show that when you exercise and eat right:YOUR BRAIN receives more blood flow and oxygen, so you become smarter, think more clearly, have more energy, and need less sleep. Two studies showed that just walking for three hours per week for only three months caused so many new neurons (神经细胞) to grow that it actually increased the size of people's brains!YOUR FACE receives more blood flow, so your_skin_glows more and wrinkles less. You look younger and more attractive. In contrast, an unhealthy diet, chronic emotional stress and smoking reduce blood flow to your face so you age more quickly. Smoking accelerates aging because nicotine causes your arteries (动脉) to narrow down, which decreases blood flow to your face and makes it wrinkle earlier. This is why smokers look years older than they really are.YOUR GENES change. In May, a study was published in the proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences showing that changing your lifestyle changes your genes.YOUR TELOMERES (染色体端粒) get longer. Telomeres are the ends of our chromosomes (染色体) that control how long we live. As telomeres become shorter, then cells age more quickly, thus shortening your life.Besides, one of the most interesting findings in the study was that the mothers' awareness of stress was more important than what was really occurring in their lives. The researchers gave the women a questionnaire and asked them to rate on a threepoint scale how stressed they felt each day, and how out of control their lives felt to them. The women who were aware that they were under heavy stress had significantly shortened and damaged telomeres compared with those who felt more relaxed. On the contrary, some of the women who felt relaxed despite raising a disabled child had mo re normalappearing telomeres.In other words, if you feel stressed, you are stressed; if you feel fine, youare fine.1. Which of the following are good for lengthening one's life, according to the passage?① eat healthy food ② drink plenty of water③ take exercise ④ get up early⑤ go to sleep early ⑥ release one's stressA.①③⑥ B.①②③C.①⑤⑥ D.③④⑥2. The underlined words “your skin glows” in Paragraph 3 are closest in meaning to “________”.A.your skin becomes white as there is plenty of sunshineB.your skin becomes smooth as there is much blood in itC.your skin looks pink as you are healthyD.your skin becomes soft as you exercise enough3. In the author's opinion, when you exercise and eat right, you will experience some changes EXCEPT ________.A.brains becoming clevererB.faces having fewer wrinklesC.arteries turning narrowerD.genes being changed4. From the last but one paragraph we learn that ________.A.mothers will have more damaged telomeres if they raise a disabled child B.mothers don't know how to handle stress effectivelyC.some women were asked to fill out a questionnaire about educating children D.mothers' positive attitudes are the key to managing their stress5. The best title for the passage would be “________”.A.Eat better, live betterB.Feel better, live longerC.Less stress, fewer diseasesD.Smoke more, age soonerCBig Brothers Big Sisters is based on the simplicity and power of friendship.

I thought it would be fun for me to get involved in making time to do something because sometimes it's all work and no play.”Big Brothers Big Sisters has been of great benefit and enjoyment to both Emily and Sarah.

安徽2021年高考英语二轮小专题复习落实应用之阅读与理解10Word版含答案
[学以致用](2021·江西卷,C)Many people think that listening is a passive business.It is just the opposite.Listening well is an active exercise of our attention and hard work.It is because they do not realize this,or because they are not willing to do the work,that most people do not listen well.Listening well also requires total concentration upon someone else.An essential part of listening well is the rule known as“bracketing”.Bracketing includes the temporary giving up or setting aside of your own prejudices and desires,to experience as far as possible someone else's world from the inside,stepping_into_his_or_her_shoes. Moreover,since listening well involves bracketing,it also involves a temporary of the other person.Sensing this acceptance,the speaker will seem quite willing to open up the inner part of his or her mind to the listener.True communication is under way.The energy required for listening well is so great that it can be accomplished only by the will to extend oneself for mutual growth.The phrase“stepping into his or her shoes”in Paragraph 2 probably means________.A.preparing a topic list firstB.focusing on one's own mindC.directing the talk to the desired resultsD.experiencing the speaker's inside world答案D[句意理解题。

安徽省2015年高考英语二轮小专题复习落实应用之阅读与理解13 When I was growing up in the suburbs of New York,our first local Earth Day was organized around a drive to a town field where families were urged to dump items from their basements for recycling rather than tossing them in the trash.It was an eyeopening concept for a kid in 1970.
But as an environmental reporter,I have come to dread(非常害怕)the large amount of deals and promotions that arrive via email or in my office or home mailbox on Earth Day.Like Valentine's Day,Earth Day has become a huge marketing opportunity —aparadoxical(矛盾的)way to promote consumption and sell stuff.
In fact,Earth Day is such a good sales hook that some shops,like Target,have expanded Earth Day into Earth Month.
There isn't time to give you a full rundown of the Earth Day shopping opportunities I was alerted to this past week.They included deals on buying bottled water and earthfriendly diaper wipes.
My award for the silliest promotion:a plan to gift 25 of the most environmentally conscious stars unique,useful and fabulous “green” products and services,including skin care products,cat litter,cheesecake and artwork.My guess is most of the stuff will end up in celebrities' garbage.
What's the author's attitude towards the deals promotions on Earth Day?
A.Objective. B.Optimistic.
C.Supportive. D.Critical.
答案 D [考查观点态度。
根据第二段中的“I have come to dread(非常害怕)the large amount of deals and promotions”以及第五段中的“My award for the silliest promotion”可知,作者对商家的促销活动持批评态度。
