高中英语真题:2014高考英语阅读理解精英训练题(14)及答案阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A,B,C, D )中,选出最佳选项。
ARecent studies suggest that family arrangements in Western so cieties have not changed as much in the last few centuries as is generally believed. Yet most sociologists agree that in modern societies, there are fewer opportunities for friendship and suppo rt from relatives. Parents and children often live apart from othe r relatives, and seldom visit them. Also, the family moves when a parent accepts a job in another place or when it decides to liv e in a better neighbourhood. Together, loneliness and mobility (迁移) force immediate family members to depend heavily on one another for affection and companionship.Because the family is one of the few ongoing sources of affectio n and companionship in modern societies, a high percentage of people continue to marry, even though it is possible for a single man and woman to live together without marrying. On the other hand, because affection and companionship have become so important, families are more likely to break up if the husband’s o r wife’s emotional (情感的) needs are not met within the family circle—even if all other family functions (功能) are being satisfactorily performed, and in this sense, affectio n and companionship have become the touchstone of the mode rn family.1. It is generally believed that ___________.A. many people spend their lives in familiar communitiesB. a person can easily get in touch with relatives in times of diffi cultyC. the organization of the family has changed a great dealD. Western societies have not changed much in the past few ye ars2. Sociological studies show that ______________.A. the more the family moves, the less support it gets from its di stant relativesB. parents and children live together to make up for the lack of r elatives outside the familyC. family arrangements have changed and so there is little nee d for companion of relativesD. family members are separated from each other because of lack of support from relatives3. The underlined word in the last paragraph may be replaced b y “___________”.A. resultB. troubleC. functionD. standard4. In the last paragraph, the writer mainly wants to say ________ ___.A. affection and companionship are important for the family and they can be gained from nowhere but the familyB. affection and companionship can come from the family and a t the same time safeguard the familyC. there are few ways to gain affection and companionship but t he best way to get them is from the familyD. in modern societies a lot of families break up and it’s just for the lack of affection and companionship参考答案CADB第三部分:阅读理解(共两节,满分40分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

2014高考英语阅读理解精英定时系列训练题(13)
2014高考英语阅读理解精英定时系列训练题〔13〕与答案【湖北省黄梅一中2013综适宜应训练〔5〕】 C What is the nature of the scientific attitude, the attitude of the man or woman who studies and applies physics, biology, chemistry, geology, engineering, medicine or any other science?We all know that science plays an important role in our societies. However, many people believe that our progress depends on two different aspects of science. The first aspect is the application of the machines, products and systems of knowledge that scientists and technologists develop. The second is the application of the special methods of thought and action that scientists use in their work.What are these special methods of thinking and acting? First of all, it seems that a successful scientist is curious - he wants to find out how and why the universe works. He usually pays attention to problems which he notices have no satisfying explanation, and looks for relationships even if the data available seem to be unconnected.Moreover, he thinks he can improve the existing conditions and enjoys trying to solve the problems which this involves.He is a good observer, accurate, patient and objective and uses the facts he observes to the fullest. For example, trained observers obtain a very large amount of information about a star mainly from the accurate analysis of the simple lines that appear in a spectrum〔光谱〕.He does not accept statements which are not based on the most complete evidence available.He rejects authority as the only basis for truth.Scientists always check statements and make experiments carefully and objectively.Furthermore, he does not readily accept his own idea, since he knows that man is the least reliable of scientific instruments and that a number of factors tend to disturb objective investigation. Lastly, he is full of imagination since he often has to look for relationships in data which are not only complex but also frequently incomplete.Furthermore, he needs imagination if he wants to guess how processes work and how events take place.These seem to be some of the ways in which a successful scientist or technologist thinks and acts.66. Many people believe that science helps society to progress through.A. knowledge onlyB. more than one aspectC. technology onlyD. the use of machines67. Which of the following statements about a curious scientist is TRUE?A. He doesn’t find confidence and pleasure in work.B. He is interested in problems that are explained.C. He makes efforts to investigate potential connections.D. He looks for new ways of acting.68. According to the passage, a successful scientist would NOT.A. easily believe in unchecked statementsB. easily criticize others' research workC. always use his imagination in workD. always use evidence from observation69. What is the author’s attitude towards the topic?A. Critical.B. Objective.C. Unclear.D. Prejudiced.70. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. Application of technology.B. Progress in modem society.C. Scientists' ways of thinking and acting.D. How to become a successful scientist.【参考答案】66—70、BCABC阅读理解-----1I travel a lot, and I find out different “styles〞(风格) of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office?〞Foreign tourists are often confused(困惑的) in Japan because most streets there don’t have names; in Japan, people use landmarks(地标) in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.〞In the countryside of the American Midwest, there are not usually many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat; in many places there are no towns or buildings within miles. Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distances. In Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.〞People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the map; they measure distance in time, not miles. “How far away is the post office?〞you ask. “Oh,〞they answer, “it’s about fiveminutes from here.〞You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it?〞They don’t know.It’s true that a person doesn’t know the answer to your que stion sometimes. What happens in such a situation? A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.〞But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know.〞People in Yucatan believe that “I don’t know〞is impolite. They usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A tourist can get very, very lost in Yucatan!56. When a tourist asks the Japanese the way to a certain place, they usually ______.A. describe the place carefullyB. show him a map of the placeC. tell him the names of the streetsD. refer to recognizable buildings and places57. What is the place where people measure distance in time?A.New York.B.Los Angeles.C.Kansas.D.Iowa.58. People in Yucatan may give a tourist a wrong answer ______.A. in order to save timeB. as a testC. so as to be politeD. for fun59. What can we infer from the text?A. It’s important for travelers to understand cultural differences.B. It’s useful for travelers to know how to ask the way properly.C. People have similar understandings of politeness.D. New Yorkers are generally friendly to visitors.1答案56.D 57.B 58.C 59.AThis was no ordinary class. The students who came together were all science or engineering professors at CornellUniversity. They had interrupted their research to accept an invitation to take part in an unusual experiment: “an interesting week of poetry〞. This class was part of a study to answer the questions: Why is science difficult for many nonscience students? What can teachers learn about teaching if they take a class that is not in their field?The students in the poetry class listened to lectures and took notes. They had reading tasks and hadto write three short papers. All students noticed one thing—the importance of spoken words. In science and engineering classes, the instructors put tables and drawings on the blackboard. But in this poetry class, the instructors just talked. They didn’t write anything on the board.The scientists and engineers noticed one similarity between science and poetry. In both subjects, students need to find layers (层次)of meaning . Some layers are simple, clear, and on the surface; other layers are deeper and more difficult. This search for different levels of meaning doesn’t happen much in undergraduate(本科)science classes, but it is important later, in graduate school. And it is always important in humanities(人文科学).Both the poetry instructors and their students learned something about teaching from this experience. One poetry instructor, for example, now sees the importance of using informative as he teaches. Most of the scientists agreed on several points. First, humanities classes might help science students to see patterns and decide which information is important. Second, the poetry class was fun. One engineer decided, “We need to change the way we teach engineering to make it an enjoyable experience for students.〞But perhaps the most important result of the experience was this: All of the professors began to think about how they teach and how they can teach better.49. What do we know about this unusual class?A. The teachers did lots of writing on the board.B. The teacher were invited to attend several lectures.C. The students were professors from a university.D. The students were studying science and humanities.50. The experiment was designed to find out .A. how to teach the students in the science classB. whether poetry is difficult for science studentsC. what to be taught in the humanities classD. why many humanities students find science hard51. Finding levels of meaning is .A. important for graduate students in humanitiesB. difficult for graduate students in humanitiesC. common for undergraduate students in scienceD. easy for undergraduate students in science52. What did the science professors learn after the experiment?A. They should change the way they teach.B. A poem could be explained in clear definitions.C. A poetry class could be more informative.D. Their teaching was an enjoyable experience.2.答案49.C 50.D 51.A 52.AWe can achieve knowledge either actively or passively(被动地). We achieve it actively by direct experience, by testing and proving an idea, or by reasoning.We achieve knowledge passively by being told by someone else. Most of the learning that takes place in the classroom and the kind that happens when we watch TV or read newspapers or magazines is passive. Conditioned as we are to passive learning, it’s not surprising that we depend on it in our everyday communication with friends and co-workers.Unfortunately, passive learning has a serious problem. It makes us tend to accept what we are told even when it is little more than hearsay and rumor(谣言).Did you ever play the game Rumor? It begins when one person writes down a message but doesn’t show it to anyone. Then the person whispers it, word for word, to another person. That person, in turn, whispers it to still another, and so on, through all the people playing the game. The last person writes down the message word for word as he or she hears it. Then the two written statements are compared. Typically, the original message has changed.That’s what happens in daily life. The simple fact that people repeat a story in their own wordschanges the story. Then, too, most people listen imperfectly. And many enjoy adding their own creative touch to a story, trying to improve on it, stamping〔打上标记〕it with their own personal style. Yet those who hear it think they know.This process is also found among scholars and authors: A statement of opinion by one writer may be restated as a fact by another, who may in turn be quoted by yet another; and this process may continue, unless it occurs to someone to question the facts on which the original writer based his opinion or to challenge the interpretation he placed upon those facts.48. According to the passage, passive learning may occur in _______.A. doing a medical experimentB. solving a math problemC. visiting an exhibitionD. doing scientific reasoning49. The underlined word “it〞in Paragraph 2 refers to _____.A. active learningB. knowledgeC. communicationD. passive learning50. The author mentions the game Rumor to show that _____.A. a message may be changed when being passed onB. a message should be delivered in different waysC. people may have problems with their sense of hearingD. people tend not to believe in what they know as rumor51. What can we infer from the passage?A. Active learning is less important.B. Passive learning may not be reliable.C. Active learning occurs more frequently.D. Passive learning is not found among scholars.3.答案48.C 49.D 50.A 51.B【湖北省黄梅一中2013综适宜应训练〔5〕】 DJames Cooke, of Islip,N.Y.,can’t recognize other people. “I see eyes, nose, cheekbones, but no face,〞he said. “I’ve even passed by my son and daughter without recognizing them.〞He is not the only one. Those with prosopagnosia, also known as face blindness, can see perfectly well, but their brains are unable to piece together the information needed to understand that a collection of features represents an individual’s face. The condition is a neurological〔神经病学的〕mystery, but new research has shed light on this strange disease.Some scientists had believed that faces and voices, the two main ways people recognize one another, were processed separately by the brain. Indeed, a condition parallel to prosopagnosia, called phonagnosia, similarly leaves a person unable to distinguish a familiar voice from an unfamiliar one. But by testing for these two conditions at the same time, researchers at the Max Planck Institute recently found evidence that face and voice recognition may be linked in a unique person-recognition system.The scientists observed the brain activity of 19 healthy volunteers as they were led through tasks that tested their ability to recognize both faces and voices. The researchers found that regions of the brain, associated with facial recognition, are directly linked to regions responsible for voice recognition.This research helps explain why a person with prosopagnosia may still have difficulty determining who a person is even after he has begun to speak. The challenge for scientists is to find out where this system breaks down. Are these connections in the brain missing entirely, or are people unable to recognize faces and voices simply unable to use these links in some way?It is unclear how many people have these conditions. Many don’t even realize they have problems with facial or voice recognition. While some develop these difficulties after a brain injury, others develop it in childhood.71. James Cooke can’t recognize other people because .A. his eyesight is failingB. he prefers to walk hurriedlyC. he suffers from face blindnessD. he can’t tell facial expressions72. Which of the following is true of prosopagnosia?A. It is a common disease among adults.B. It may cause damage to the brain.C. It is always an inborn disease.D. There has been no cure for it.73. According to Paragraph 3, the underlined word “phon agnosia〞may be known as .A. voice blindnessB. memory lossesC. facial injuriesD. mental illness74. According to the recently discovered evidence, .A. different regions of the brain have to work separatelyB. people with phonagnosia are good at facial recognitionC. regions of the brain for personal recognition are connectedD. person recognition is controlled by the same part of the brain75. What can we know from the last two paragraphs?A. The causes of the two diseases have been discovered recently.B. The scientists are quite satisfied with the evidence and findings.C. Some people have problems with both facial and voice recognition.D. A lot of patients have been assisted medically and psychologically.【参考答案】71—75、CDACC。

2014高考英语阅读理解精英定时训练题(13)及答案【甘肃省嘉峪关市一中2013模拟】DEven plants can run a fever,especially when they’re under attack by insects or disease。
But unlike human, plants can have their temperature taken from 3,000 feet away—straight up。
A decade ago, adopting the infrared(红外线)scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites,physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress. The goal was to let farmers precisely target pesticide(杀虫剂)spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field, which invariably includes plants that don’t have pest problems。
Even better,Paley's Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye. Mounted on a plane flown at 3,000 feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops。

高考英语阅读理解精英定时练习题(14)及答案
2014高考英语阅读理解精英定时练习题(14)及答案阅读理解------A篇Honestly, since my daughter was born, I have thought a lot about how to raise a child. I once hearda story that told about when a baby was born. The story said that when a baby was born, a newmaster was born. The parents of that baby would become the servants. The question is: Why?Based on my observation, this phenomenon is true. Most parents who don't pay much attention totheir kids have difficulties with their kids' attitude.I'll make a comparison of how two families raise their children. The first one is a family with threechildren. Both mother and father never say "No" to their children's demands. As a result, all oftheir children became stubborn and won't listen to their parents’ words, "We can't." The second family educated their children strictly from one year old to high school. The parentsnever approved or agreed directly to give their children wh at they wanted. They always postponedone or two days, even if they could afford it. Due to the way their parents educated them, thesechildren understood that if they wanted something, they had to wait or they had to make an effortfirst. As a result, all the kids from the second family successfully graduated from university ontime.In my opinion, if we want to be successful parents and raise our children well, we have to startdisciplining them when they are toddlers but not wait until they become teenagers.46. Why did the writer give two different stories in this passage?A. To help prove his opinion about raising a child.B. To list different ways that parents may take.C. To criticize some parents’ foolish action.D. To prove that his way of education is right.the third paragraph mean?47. What does the underlined word “postponed” inA. Carried out at once.B. Gave up.C. Put off.D. Made a decision.48. In the writer’s opinion, which of the following about raising a child is TRUE?A. Children should be respected once they were born.B. Parents should educate their children as early as possible.C. It is right time to educate their children when they are teenagers.D. Children should be helped whenever they make mistakes.参考答案46—48、51ACBOne period of our lives when better results are demanded of us is, strangely enough, childhood. Despite being young we are expected to achieve good grades, stay out of trouble, make friends at school, do well on tests, perform chores at home and so on. It's not easy.The good news is that being likeable can help a child perform better. Likeable children enjoy many advantages, including the ability to cope more easily with stresses of growing up.In her book Understanding Child Stress, Dr. Carolyn Leonard states that children who are likeable and optimistic are able to gain support from others. This leads to focus and resilience, the ability to recover from or adjust early to life stress; a child who has adequate emotional_armor can continue down the path to success. Much research shows that resilience has enabled children to succeed in school, avoid drug abuse, and develop a healthy self-awareness.Why does a likeable child more easily handle stress and do better in his or her life? Because likeability helps create what's known as a positive feedback loop(回馈圈). The positive feelings you want to see in other people are returned to you, creating constant encouragement and motivation to deal with the daily stress of life.This feedback loop continues into adulthood. To return once again to the example of teaching, learning becomes easier with a likeable personality. Michael Delucchi of the University of Hawaii reviewed dozens of studies to determine if likeable teachers received good ratings because of their likeability or because they in fact taught well. Delucchi found that “Students who perceive(察觉) a teacher as likeable, in contrast to those who do not, may be more attentive to the information that the teacher delivers and they'll work harder on assignments, and they will learn more.”You may have noticed this pattern in your own life when you try to give some advice. Themore positive your relationship with that person, the more he or she seems to listen, and the more you feel certain that that person has heard you and intends to act on your words.1.The writer implies in the first paragraph that ________.A.children are expected more than we usually thinkB.life is not easy for every one of usC.better education results in smarter childrenD.to be a likable child is almost impossible2.According to Dr. Leonard, likeable children ________.A.can cope more easily with stress independentlyB.know how to avoid trouble and unpleasant eventsC.are always optimistic and ready to help those in needD.can achieve more and understand themselves better3.The term “emotional armor”in Paragraph 3 means________.A.mental support from friendsB.mental support from adultsC.failures in lifeD.ability to handle life stress4.The main purpose of the studies done by Michael Delucchi is to find ________.A.if a likeable teacher has a positive personalityB.if a likeable teacher draws more attentionC.how a teacher's likeability gains popularityD.how a likeable teacher's teaching style is formed5.The passage aims at proving that ________.A.likeable people do better in life generallyB.likeable people do better in their childhoodC.social creatures enjoy more advantagesD.likeable people give better adviceDiana Jacobs thought her family had a workable plan to pay for college for her 21-year-old twin sons: a combination of savings, income, scholarships, and a modest amount of borrowing. Then her husband lost his job, and the plan fell apart.“I have two kids in college, and I want to say ‘come home,’ but at the same time I want to provide them with a good education,” says Jacobs.The Jacobs family did work out a solution: They asked and received more aid from theschools, and each son increased his borrowing to the maximum amount through the federal loan (贷款) program. They will each graduate with $20,000 of debt, but at least they will be able tofinish school.With unemployment rising, financial aid administrators expect to hear from more families like the Jacobses.More students are applying for aid, and more families expect to need student loans. College administrators are concerned that they will not have enough aid money to go around.At the same time, tuition(学费)continues to rise. A report from the National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education found that college tuition and fees increased 439% from 1982 to 2007, while average family income rose just 147%. Student borrowing has more than doubled inthe last decade.“If we go on this way for another 25 years, we won't have an affordable system of higher education,” says Patrick M. Callan, president of the center. “The middle-class families have been financing it through debt. They will send kids to college whatever it takes, even if that meansa huge amount of debt.”Financial aid administrators have been having a hard time as many companies decide that student loans are not profitable enough and have stopped making them. The good news, however, is that federal loans account for about three quarters of student borrowing, and the government says that money will flow uninterrupted.1. According to Paragraph 1,why did the plan of the Jacobs family fail?A.The twins wasted too much money.B.The father was out of work.C.Their savings ran out.D.The family fell apart.2.How did the Jacobses manage to solve their problem?A.They asked their kids to come home.B.They borrowed $20,000 from the schools.C.They encouraged their twin sons to do part-time jobs.D.They got help from the schools and the federal government.3.Financial aid administrators believe that ________.A.more families will face the same problem as the Jacobses B.the government will receive more letters of complaint C.college tuition fees will double soonD.America's unemployment will fall4.What can we learn about the middle-class families from the text? A.They blamed the government for the tuition increase.B.Their income remained steady in the last decade.C.They will try their best to send kids to college.D.Their debts will be paid off within 25 years.5.According to the last paragraph, the government will________. A.provide most students with scholarshipsB.dismiss some financial aid administratorsC.stop the companies from making student loansD.go on providing financial support for college studentschildren lies in _________.A. the amount of intelligenceB. the different situations they faceC. the different attitudes to lifeD. the background of lifeExercise 4A punctual person is in the habit of doing a thing at the proper time and is never late in keeping an appointment.The unpunctual man, on the other hand, never does what he has to do at the proper time. He is always in a hurry and in the end loses both time and his good name. A lost thing may be found again, but lost time can never be regained. Time is more valuable than material things. In fact, time is life itself. The unpunctual man is for ever wasting and mismanaging his most valuableThe unpunctual person is always complaining that he finds no time to asset as well as others’.answer letters, or return calls or keep appointments promptly. But the man who really has a great deal to do is very careful of his time and seldom complains of want of it. He knows that he can not get through huge amount of work unless he faithfully keeps every piece of work when it has to be attended to.Question :According to the passage, which is right?A. The punctual person has no much work to do.B. The unpunctual person is very rich.C. The unpunctual person is often respected by his friends.D. The unpunctual person loses what can’t be regained again.Exercise 5Sandstorms can disturb people's travel and can sometimes destroy whole roads, and dry flat areas. Similar dust storms can be found on the planet Mars, and are thought to be seasonal. Today, the destruction of forests and too much farming of farmland call lead to sandstorms. Too much use of water resources can also cause sandstorms.Question :From the paragraph , we can learn that at present __________.A. sandstorms are more often seen on Mars than on EarthB. human activities are a major cause of sandstormsC. farming brings more harm than benefits to humansD. sandstorms have led to the lack of clean water resourcesI. 1. C。

These days everyone is worried about the size of their carbon footprint.In order to reduce global warming we need to make our carbon footprints smaller.But how much CO2 are we responsible for?A new book by Mike Berners Lee (a leading expert in carbon footprint) might be able to help.How Bad are Bananas? The Carbon Footprint of Everything looks at the different things we do and buy, and calculates the amount of CO2all of the following created: the ingredients (=parts of a mixture), the electricity used in the brewery, the equipment, the travel and commuting (交换) of the beer, and the packaging.It’s amazing how many different things need to be included in each calculation.And it’s frightening how much carbon dioxide everything produces.But all of this can help us decide which beer to drink.From Berners-Lee’s calculations, it’s clear that a pint (568ml) of locally-brewed beer has a smaller carbon footprint than a bottle of imported beer.This is because the imported beer has been transported from far away, and it uses more packaging.The local beer only produces 300g of CO2, but the imported beer produces 900g! So, one pint of local beeris better for the environment than three cans of cheap foreign lager (淡啤酒) from the supermarket.Berners-Lee has even calculated the carbon footprint of cycling to work.Nothing is more environmentally-friendly than riding a bike, surely? Well, it depends on what you’ve had to eat before.To ride a bike we need energy and for energy we need food.So if we eat a banana and then ride a kilometer and a half, our footprint is 65g of CO2.However, if we eat bacon before the bike ride, it’s 200g.In fact, bananas are go od in general because they don’t need packaging, they can be transported by boat and they grow in natural sunlight.So, does this mean that cycling is bad for the environment? Absolutely not, for a start, if you cycle, you don’t use your car, and the fewer cars on the road, the fewer traffic jams.And cars in traffic jams produce three times more CO2 than cars traveling at speed.Cycling also makes you healthy and less likely to go to a hospital.And hospitals have very big carbon footprints!So maybe it’s tim e for us all to start making some changes.Pass me a banana and a pint of local beer, please.5.According to Berners-Lee, which of the following produces the most carbon dioxide?A.A pint of local beer we drink.B.A pint of imported beer we drink.C.A banana we eat before a bike ride.D.The bacon we eat before a bike ride.6.Why are bananas good in general?A.They grow naturally.B.They produces less CO2.C.They don’t need packaging.D.They provide energy for cycling.7.The underlined word “brewery”in Paragraph 3 most probably means “___________”.A.a factory where beer is madeB.a machine which makes beerC.a container where beer is storedD.one of the things from which beer is made8.To make our carbon footprints smaller, we should often ___________.A.cycle to workB.drink more local beerC.calculate the amount of CO2D.buy cheap things from the supermarkets9.What’s the most suitable title for the passage?A.Bikes, Beer and BananasB.Starting to Make ChangesC.How Big Is Your Carbon Footprint?D.The Carbon Footprint of Everything参考答案(B) BBAACToday, there’s hardly an aspect of our life that isn’t being upended by the tons of information available on the hundreds of millions of sites crowding the Internet, not to mention its ability to keep us in constant touch with each other via / through electronic mail.“If the automobile and aerospace technology had exploded at the same pace as computer and information technology,” says Microsoft, “a new car would cost about $ 2 and go 600 miles on a small quantity of gas.And you could buy a Boeing 747 for the cost of a pizza.”Probably the biggest payoff, however, is the billions of dollars the Internet is saving companies in producing goods and serving for the needs of their customers.Nothing like it has been seen since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, when power-driven machines began producing more in a day than men could turn out in nearly a year.“We view the growth of the Internet and e-commerce as a global trend,” says Merrill Lynch, “along the lines of printing press, the telephone, the computer, and electricity.”You would be hard pressed to name something that isn’t available on theInternet.Consider: books, health care, movie tickets, construction materials, baby clothes, stocks, cattle feed, music, electronics, antiques, tools, real estate, toys, autographs of famous people, wine and airline tickets.And even after you’ve moved on to your final resting place, there’s no reason those you love can’t keep in touch.A company called FinalThoughts.com offers a place for you to store “afterlife e-mails” you can send to Heaven with the help of a “guardian angel”.Kids today are so computer literate that it in fact ensures the United States will remain the unchallenged leader in cyberspace for the foreseeable (能预测的)future.Nearly all children in families with incomes of more than $75,000 a year have home computers, according to a study by the David and Lucile Packard Foundation.Youngsters from ages 2 to 17 at all income levels have computers, with 52% of those connected to the Internet.Most kids use computers to play games (some for 30 hours or more a week), and many teenage girls think nothing of rushing home from school to have e-mail chats with friends they have just left.What’s clear is that, whether we like it or not, the Internet is an ever growing part of our lives and there is no turning back.“The Internet is just 20% invented,” says cyber pioneer Jake Winebaum.“The last 80% is happening now.”10.What can we learn from the M icrosoft’s remark?A.Today’s cars and airplanes are extremely overpriced.B.Information technology is developing at an amazing speedC.Information technology has reached the point where improvement is difficult. D.There’s more competition i n information technology industry than in car industry.11.According to the author, the biggest benefit of the Internet is that___.A.it saves companies huge amounts of moneyB.it speeds up profit making]C.it brings people incredible convenienceD.it provides easy access to information12.The author gives the example of FinalThoughts.com to make the point that____. A.there are some genius ideas on the InternetB.almost anything is available on the InternetC.people can find good bargains on the InternetD.some websites provide novel services to increase hits13.What can we learn from the fourth paragraph?A.There is a link between income and computer ownership.B.Many American children don’t put computers to good us e.C.Studies show that boys are more computer literate than girls.D.The U.S.will stay ahead in the information technology in years.14.Which sentence has the phrase that possesses the same meaning as the one underlined in the fifth paragraph?A.Some can tell you that he has changed their lives, while others think nothing of him.B.Think nothing of it.It was my pleasure.C.He thinks nothing of staying up all night in the Café bar.D.He thinks nothing of the pain in his back for the moment.15.What is the message the author intends to convey?A.The Internet is going to get firm hold of our lives some day.B.The Internet is going to influence our lives even more greatly.C.We should have a positive attitude towards the changes the Internet brings. D.Children should be well prepared for the challenges in the information age.参考答案(C) BABDCBYou can not see any object unless light from that object gets into your eyes. Some of the things you see give off light of their own. The sun, the stars, a lighted lamp are examples that can be seen by their own light. Such things are luminous. Most of the things you see are not giving off light of their own. They are simply reflecting light that falls on them from the sun or some other luminous bodies. The moon, for example, does not give off any light of its own. It is non-luminous. You see it becausesunlight falls on it and some of it reflects in our direction. So moon light is only second hand sunlight.When you look at a book, it sends to your eyes some of the light which falls on it, and you see the book. If light could be kept out from where you are so that there would be no light for the book to reflect, then you could not see the book even with your eyes wide open.Light travels so fast that the time in which it travels from the book you are reading to your eyes is so short as if there were no time at all. Light reaches us from the moon, which is about 380 000 kilometers away, in only a little more than a second.1. You can see the book because_______.A. your eyes are close to itB. it reflects some of the sunlightC. it has light of its ownD. your eyesight can get to it2. The underlined word “luminous” means_______.A. visibleB. all colorsC. giving off lightD. sunlight3. ________ have light of their own.A. The sun and the moonB. The stars and the earthC. The sun and the starsD. The moon and the earth4. Which of the following is true?A. All the things you can see give off light.B. Light from the book is much shorter than that from the moon.C. The moment you open your eyes the light from the book travels to your eyes.D. Light travels so fast that there is no time for you to read.(1—4 BCCC)【答案与解析】本文介绍了光的种类及其特征。

高中英语真题-2014高考英语阅读理解训练(13)及答案
高中英语真题:2014高考英语阅读理解训练(13)及答案阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。
【2014高考英语河北省衡水中学一调考试】ANew crime prediction software should reduce not only the m urder rate, but the rate of other crimes. Developed by Richard B erk, a professor at the University of Pennsylvania, the software has already used in Baltimore and Philadelphia to predict which individuals on probation(缓刑) or parole(假释) are most likely to murder and to be murdered.“When a person goes on probation or parole he is supervised(监督) by an officer. The question is ‘what level of supervision is ap propriate?’” said Berk. It used to be that parole officers used the person’s criminal record, and their judgment to make decisions .“This research replaces those seat-of-the –pants calculations,” he said.Technology helps determine level of supervision. On average there is one murder for every 100,000 people. Even among hig h-risk groups the murder rate is one in 100. Predicting such a rare event is very difficult, but advances in computer technology wo rks.Years ago, the researchers made a dataset of more than 60,0 00 various crimes. Using the software they developed, they fou nd some much more likely to commit murder when paroled or p robated. They could identify eight future murderers out of 100.Berk’s software examines roughly two dozen variables(可变因素), from criminal record to geographic location. The type of cri mes, and more importantly, the age at which that crime was co mmitted, were two of the most predictive variables.“People assume that if someone murdered then they will mu rder in the future,” said Berk. “ What really matters is what that person did as a young individual. Predicting future crimes soun ds well. But we aren’t anywhere near being able to do that.”“Berk’s scientific answer leaves policymakers with difficult qu estions. By labeling one group of people as high risk, and super vise them closely, there should be fewer murders, which the pot ential victims should be happy about. It also means that those high-risk individuals will be supervised more aggressively. For huma n rights advocates, that means punishing people who, most like ly, will not commit a crime in the future,” said Bushway. “It come s down to a question of whether you would rather make these e rrors or those errors.”21. The underlined words(in Para.3) probably mean___.A. calculations based on subjective opinionsB. calculations based on widespread votingC. calculations made by advanced technologyD. calculations based on serious considering22. For 650 people with crime records, how many potential mur derers would the software find?A. 6.5.B. 13.C. 52.D. 65.23. From Para 7, we can infer that______.A. the technology developed by Richard Berk will soon be wide ly used in theB. the technology would not be widely accepted in the short ter mC. whether a person murders or not largely decided by his upbri nging while youngD. if a person murdered when he was fifty, he is sure to murder again while on probation24. Bushway’s attitude to the technology put forward by Richard Berk is ____.A. positiveB. negativeC. objectiveD. indifferent25. Which would be the best title for the passage?A. Closely Supervise Potential MurdersB. Measures Taken to Prevent Criminal BehaviorC. Technology Revolutionizes Judges’ Way of WorkingD. Software is Developed to Predict Criminal Behavior【参考答案】 (A) ACBCD较难题目特训:介绍说明类The government of Norway is planning to build an unusual stor age center on an island in the Arctic Ocean. The place would b e large enough to hold about two million seeds. The goal is to r epresent all crops known to scientists. The British magazine Ne w Scientist published details of the plan last month. The structur e will be designed to protect the world’s food supply against nuc lear war, climate change and other possible threats. It will be built in a mountain on the Norwegian of . The mountain is less tha n one thousand kilometers from the North Pole, the northernmo st position on Earth.An international group called the Global Crop Diversity Trust is working on the project. The director of the group, Cary Fowler, spoke to New Scientist. He said the project would let the world r ebuild agriculture if in his words “the worst came to the worst”. i s expected to start work next year. The project is expected to c ost three million dollars. Workers will drill deep in the side of a s andstone mountain. Temperatures in the area never rise above zero degrees Celsius. The seeds will be protected behind concr ete walls a meter thick and high-security doors.The magazine report says the collection will represent the prod ucts of ten thousand years of farming. Most of the seeds at first will come from collections at seed banks in Africa, Asia and Lati n America. To last a long time, seeds need to be kept in very lo w temperatures. Workers will not be present all the time. But th ey plan to replace the air inside the storage space each winter. Winter temperatures on the island are about eighteen degrees below zero Celsius. The cold weather would protect the seeds even if the air could not be replaced.Mr. Fowler says the proposed structure will be the world’s most secure gene bank. He says the plant seeds would only be usedwhen all other seeds are gone for some reason.Norway first pr oposed the idea in the 1980s. But security concerns delayed th e plan. At that time, the Soviet Union was permitted use of Spits bergen. New Scientist says the plan won United Nations approv al in October at a meeting in of the Food and Agriculture Organ ization.55. The project is meant to_____.A. increase the world’s food production in the futureB. carry out some scientific experiments on plant genesC. protect crop seeds from dying out in case of possible disaste rsD. build an exhibition centre of the world’s plant seeds56. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the above passage?A. The government of will perform the project alone.B. Seeds to be collected there were produced ten thousand yea rs ago.C. Spitsbergen is chosen because it is away from the threat of unclear war forever.D. Temperature is a major consideration when choosing the sto rage place.57. We can infer from the text that_____.A. People will get newly-developed seeds from the center every yearB. The storage center will greatly promote the development of world agricultureC. Norway meant to have built the storage centre more than 20 years agoD. There haven’t been any seed storage centers in the world be fore58. What is probably the best title of the passage?A. Noah’s Ark of Plant Seeds in PlanB. The to Store SeedsC. Concerns of World Food SupplyD. A New Way to Feed the World【参考答案】5. 55-58 CDCA较难题目特训:介绍说明类Book reviews can be a great foot in the door if you’re looking to get your writing published somewhere. Most magazines, wheth er online or print, will include book reviews about books that tac kle the topics the magazine discusses. Also, most editors and s taff writers are usually too busy to read books and review them themselves (unless they are specifically assigned to a book review column). Therefore, writing book reviews can be a great wa y to get started with a writing career.Many people that are reading your review may not know anythi ng about the book you’re reviewing. Instead of making them go find information on their own by searching for the book title, star t out with a little description of the book. Make sure you avoid to o long of a summary, though, because if too much of your articl e is a summary of the book, it won’t be interesting. Start with a short paragraph or so that hits all the major points but doesn't gi ve too much away. You don’t want to tell your reader everything about the book, because then they won’t have to read it at all. Just give enough information so your reader is interested in rea ding the book.Some magazines like to publish book reviews that are complete ly objective(客观的). This means that they want a review of the book that does n't share your opinion and that in which your opinion isn't obvio us from reading what you wrote. If you hated a book, it might no t be a great book to review. You probably want to review books that you enjoyed. This will give your review a positive spin. Avoi d gushing about how much you loved the book, however. You s hould not include your personal reaction to the book until the ve ry end, where you include a sentence or two about whether or not you would recommend a book and to whom you would reco mmend it.A great way to get your review noticed is to look at a book throu gh a specific lens. Read the book as a feminist(女权主义者) would, for example, and talk about what a feminist might s ay to applaud or criticize the book. You can choose any number of lenses, and feminism is just one option. An economic lens, a family lens, the lens of a different nationality, or the lens of a ch ild could all be interesting ways to look at a book. If you look at a book in this way, instead of just reading it and forming your o wn opinion, it will be much more interesting and marketable. Thi s is especially the case if you look at a lens that relates to the s ubject of the magazine to which you are submitting. Feminist m agazines love book reviews about books read through a feminis t lens, for example, because it pertains to their readership. Another great way to write a book review is to talk about the wri ter’s style. Anyone can pick up a book and read for the plot, but it takes an experienced writer to note interesting things about a nother w riter’s style and write about them intelligently.67. What’s the first paragraph mainly about?A. Standards of good book reviews.B. Benefits of writing book reviews.to get your writing published.D. Topics usually discussed in magazines.68. Which of the following is a characteristic of a good book revi ew?A. Including much information on a major point of the book.B. Stating clearly the writer’s opinion of the book.C. Giving a brief summary of the book.D. Avoiding describing the book.69. The fourth paragraph is developed mainly by .A. giving examplesB. telling personal experiencesC. making comparisonsD. analyzing causes70. According to the text, only a skilled writer can .A. look at a book through a specific angleB. give an objective description of a bookC. find a book and understand its plot easilyD. pay close attention to another writer’s style【参考答案】6. 67-70 BCAD阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项( A.
