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

阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。
English as a Foreign LanguageWho taught you to speak English? Yourparents, while you were a young child? Yourteachers at school? Perhaps even the BBCas a grown-up. Whoever it was, somehow youhave developed an understanding of what israpidly becoming a truly global language.There are now about 376 million people who speak English as their first language, and about the same number who have learnt it in addition to their mother tongue. There are said to be one billion people learning English now and about 80% of the information on the Internet is in English.Is this a good thing, or a bad thing? Should we celebrate the fact that more and more of us can communicate, using a common language, across countries and cultures? Or should we worry about the dangersof“mono-culturalism”, a world in which we all speak the same language, eat the same food and listen to the same music?Does it matter if an increasing number of people speak the same language? On the contrary, I would have thought-although I have never accepted the argument that if only we all understood each other better, there would be fewer wars. Ask the people of India(where many of them speak at least some English)and Pakistan(the same situation with India). . .If we all speak English, will we then all start eating McDonald’s burgers? Surely not. If English becomes more dominant(占主导地位的), will it kill other languages? I doubt it. When I travel in Africa or Asia, I am always surprised by how many people can speak not only their own language but often one or more other related languages, as well as English and perhaps some French or German as well.When we discussed this on Talking Point a couple of years ago, we receive d a wonderfully poetic email from a listener in Ireland. “The English language is a beautiful language. Maybe it’s like a rose, ”he said. “But who would ever want their garden just full of rose? ”Well, I love roses, and I think they make a beautiful addition to any garden. But the way I see it, just by planting a few roses, you don’t necessarily need to pull out everything else. If more and more people want to plant English roses, that’s fine by me.【文章大意】作者以独特的视角分析了英语的发展前景和人们的种种顾虑。
2016届高考高三英语二轮专题复习：阅读理解
2014届高考高三英语二轮专题复习：阅读理解AThe original plans for the park were on 8 acres next to the Burbank studios where his employees and families could go to relax. Although, World War II put those plans on hold. During the war, Disney had time to come up with new ideas, and creations for his magical park. It was soon clear that 8 acres wouldn't be enough.Finally in 1953, he had the Stanford Research Institute conduct a survey for a 100-acre site, outside of Los Angeles. He needed space to build rivers, waterfalls, and mountains; he would have flying elephants and giant teacups; a fairy-tale castle, moon rockets, and a scenic railway; all inside a magic kingdom he called "Disneyland."The search for the best venue for the park ended in the rural Anaheim, California with a purchase of a 160-acre orange grove near the junction of the Santa Ana Freeway (I-5) and Harbor Boulevard.Construction for Disneyland began on July 21, 1954, 12 months before the park was scheduled to open.Some 160-acres of citrus trees had been cleared and 15 houses moved to make room for the park. However, when the real designing came around, Disney met with inevitable questions. How do you make believable wild animals, that aren't real? How do you make a Mississippi paddle ship? How do you go about building a huge castle in the middle of Anaheim, California? Disney asked his movie studio staff for answers. The design of Disneyland was something never done before. There would be four uniquely different theme parts: Adventureland, Frontierland, Fantasyland Tomorrow land. Bit by bit, Disneyland got ready for Opening Day. The staff worked around the clock to get ready.But opening day was a terrible disaster. Besides the terrible opening day conditions, the park did eventually pick up. By 1965, ten years after opening day, 50 Million visitors had come through the gates.36. The passage is mainly about___________.A. How Disneyland came into beingB.

Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a similar problem. They often accept the opinions or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without thinking. They try to find a solution by trial and error. However, when all these methods fail, the person with a problem has to start analyzing. There are six stages in analyzing a problem.First the person must recognize that there is a problem. For example, Sam’s bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must see that there is a problem with his bicycle.Next the thinker must define the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must find out the reason why it does not work. For instance, he must determine if the problem is with the gears, the brakes, or the frame. He must make his problem more specific.Now the person must look for information that will make the problem clearer and lead to possible solutions. For instance, suppose Sam decided that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the gear wheels. At this time, he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about gears. He can talk to his friends at the bike shop. He can look at his gears carefully. After studying the problem, the person should have several suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an illustration. His suggestions might be: put oil on the gear wheels; buy new gear wheels and replace the old ones; tighten or loosen the gear wheels.Eventually one suggestion seems to be the solution to the problem. Sometimes the final idea comes very suddenly because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a new way. Sam, for example, suddenly sees that there is a piece of chewing gum between the gear wheels. He immediately realizes the solution to his problem: he must clean the gear wheels.Finally the solution is tested. Sam cleans the gear wheels and finds that afterwards his bicycle works perfectly. In short , he has solved the problem.43. By referring to Sam’s broken bicycl e, the author intends to _________.A. illustrate the ways to repair his bicycleB. discuss the problems of his bicycleC. tell us how to solve a problemD. show us how to analyze a problem44. Which of the following is NOT true?A. People do not analyze the problem they meet.B. People often accept the opinions or ideas of other people.C. People may learn from their past experience.D. People can not solve some problems they meet.45. As used in the last sentence, the phrase “in short” means _________.A. in the short termB. in detailC. in a wordD. in the end46. . In analyzing a problem we should do all the following except .A. recognize and define the problemB. look for information to make the problem clearerC. have suggestions for a possible solutionD. find a solution by trial or mistakeDThe campaign is over. The celebrations have ended. And the work for US president-elect Barack Obama has begun.The 47-year-old politician rose to the highest post because of his stand against the war in Iraq and his plans to fix a weak economy. But what will the first 47-year-old African-American president do for race relations?Obama’s victory appears to have given blacks and other minorities a true national role model. For years, many looked to athletes and musicians for inspiration. As Darius Turner, an African-American high school student in Los Angeles, told the Los Angeles Times, “Kobe doesn’t have to be e verybody’s role model anymore.”Recent polls（民意测验）also suggest that Obama’s victory has given Americans new optimism about race relations. For example, a USA Today poll found that two-thirds of Americans believe relations between blacks and whites “will finally be worked out”. This is the most hopeful response since the question was first asked during the civil rights revolution in 1963.However, it’s still too early to tell whether Obama’s presidency will begin to solve many of the social problems facing low-income black communities.Although blacks make up only 13 percent of the US population, 55 percent of all prisoners are African-American. Such numbers can be blamed on any number of factors on America’s racist past, a failure of government policy and the collapse(瓦解)of the family unit in black communities.It is unlikely that Obama will be able to reverse (扭转) such trends overnight. However, Bill Bank, an expert of African-American Studies, says that eventually young blacks need to find role models in their own communities. “That’s not Martin Luther King, and not Barack Obama,” he told the Los Angeles Times. “It’s actually the people closest to them. Barack only has so much influence.”In the opinion of black British politician Trevor Phi llips, Obama’s rise will contribute more to multiculturalism than to race relations in the US.“When the G8 meets, the four most important people in the room will be the president of China, the prime minister of India, the prime minister of Japan and Ba rak Obama,” he told London’s The Times newspaper. “It will be the first time we’ve seen that on our television screens. That will be a huge psychological shift (心理转变) for both the white people and the colored ones in the world.”47. For years, before Obama was elected president of the US, __________.A. Kobe was the only role model for all the blacksB. blacks could only find role models on the basketball courtC. minorities in America couldn’t find role models in their real lifeD. American blacks had no role model who was successful in political area48. According to Bill Bank, ____________.A. it’s better for young blacks to find role models in those who are close to themB. young blacks should not be so much influenced by ObamaC. blacks should find other role models because Obama is far from their realityD. Obama is not the proper role model for African-Americans49. What would be the best title for this passage?A. The First African-American PresidentB. America’s New R ole ModelC. Obama-- A Successful Black .D. Choosing a Right Role Model50. What will be the huge psychological shift Trevor mentioned at the end of the passage?A. The other three leaders all support Obama.B. Obama is an African-American president.C. None of the four leaders is white.D. The other three leaders except Obama are from Asian countries.A. ACDBB. ABDC. CACDD.

语鹅市安置阳光实验学校黑龙江2016高考英语阅读理解二轮训练（6）【2015高考复习】阅读理解Sons who have fond childhood memories of theirfathers are more likely to be emotionally stable in the face of daytoday stresses，according topsychologists who studied hundreds of adults of all ages.“As our study shows，fathers do play a unique and important role in the mental health of their children much later in life，”Psychology professor Melanie Mallers of California State University said.For this study,912 adult men and women between the ages of 25 and 74 completed short daily telephone interviews about that day's experiences over an eightday period.The interviews focused on the participants' psychological and emotional distress (i.e.，whether they were nervous，sad，etc.) and if they had experienced any stressful events that day.The participants were also required to answer questions such as，“How would you rate your relationship with your mother during the years when you were growing up？”and “How much time and attention did your mother give you when you needed it？”The same questions were asked about fathers.People who reported they had a good motherchild relationship reported three percent less psychological distress compared to those who reported a poor relationship，according to Mallers.Men who reported having a good relationship with their father during childhood were more likely to be less emotional when reacting to stressful events in their current daily lives than those who had a poor relationship，according to her findings.Also，the quality of mother and father relationships was significantly associated with how many stressful events the participants faced on a daily basis.In other words，if they had a poor childhood relationship with both parents，they reported more stressful incidents over the eightday study when compared to those who had a good relationship with their parents.Mallers theorized why healthy or unhealthy relationships may have an effect on how people handle stress as adults，“Perhaps having caring parents equips children with the experiences and skills necessary to more successfully navigate their relationships with other peoplethroughout childhood and into adulthood.”she said.【语篇导读】最新研究发现，孩提时的父母与子女的关系会影响孩子成人以后的处理压力的能力。

It's an interesting and original form of tourism which will no doubt revolutionize real travel, and even make actual life somewhat different.On the banks of the River Rin, in the city of St. Alban, you can now take a half virtual, half real tour on horseback with the help of a piece of electronic equipment, earphones, and a science-fiction style visor (面罩 ) which contains a small camera. This modern equipment is called Life Clipper. It is the original idea of both Swiss inventor Jan Torpus, who studied in Barcelona, and German technology expert Nikolas Neecke.According to the instructions for the Life Clipper, once a tourist is equipped, he'll need a guide to assist him to get used to seeing the world8through the visor. Once on the Rin riverbank, the tourist starts his journey with the sounds of the water, which are created by sensors(传感器).From here the tourist travels on foot to the St. Alban neighborhood,feeling and sensing the view with his hands, nose and mouth. What he sees are images between the year 1000 and the year 1500: carriages, princes, etc.This project sounds like something from science fiction and it looks funny when people in a visor try to touch a horse which isn't there. So far, this tourism has been a successonly in Basilea, and will be introduced anywhere else in the world in the near future.This is a fun and unusual way of travelling. Surely it won't be long before we see a new and improved form of Life Clipper - one that isn't just for sightseeing, but also for other parts of our life. For example, instead of taking a bus to the office or university, we just sit at homeand put on the visor, feeling as if we were m a different place, andvirtual work becomes reality.41.The underlined word "revolutionize" in Paragraph l is closest in meaning to "________".A. createB. changeC. copyD. cover42.Which is TRUE about the Life Clipper?A.It is a small camera.B.It was invented by Jan Torpus.C.The science-fiction style visor is a part of it.D.Tourists can have a totally virtual tour with it.43.Paragraph 3 is mainly about __________.A.the history of virtual tourismB.the advantages of virtual tourismC.the ways of attracting more touristsD.how to operate Life Clipper44.What can be inferred from the passage?A.Tourists can get used to seeing the world on their own once equipped.B.Tourists can touch what they see through the visor.C.Life Clipper can make tourists see images of ancient times.D.Life Clipper has been used in other areas of our lives.45.What would be the best title for the passage?A.Virtual tourism is more popularB.Virtual tourism is more fantasticC.What the future of virtual tourism will beD.Virtual tourism is born【参照答案】 41-45 BCDCD该篇为说明文。

In the late 1990s，a family visited the school where I taught deaf students。
They said they would be moving here and planned to send their deaf daughter to my school as a first grader。
They were upset that their child's kindergarten teacher told them not to have high hopes for her。
The teacher painted a bleak (暗淡的）picture for their little girl’s future. Standing behind them was Katherine，a beautiful five—year-old with long hair and dark eyes。
The whole time her parents were there she didn’t make a sound or use sign language, even when her parents asked her to do so.After a few weeks with Katherine, I discovered I was dealing with a very bright child. Although I was able to make her join in different learning activities，writing was always a struggle. I tried all kinds of methods to interest her in writing。

2016高考英语二轮阅读理解训练（6）[史地自然型阅读理解(一)]Squirrels often communicate with whistles, chirps and chucks, which sound like the word “chuck”. Whistles and chirps are lik e the sounds that many birds make.Now scientists have transl ated some of their squirrelspeak.Hare, a professor of zoology at the University of Maniloha in Winnipeg, and his team managed to record squirrels' alarm c alls.The researchers studied the sounds and then played the m back to 60 wild squirrels, which the scientists approached i ndividually with a video recorder to capture(抓拍)their responses.Some squirrels lifted their heads up and be came alert(警惕的)．Creatures that were more frightened simply ran for their l ives and dived into caves.“In effect then, whistles that mix with chucks say ‘there's an e nemy of average threat that's here’， and whistles without ch ucks say ‘there's an enemy of seemingly average threat arou nd here somewhere’， while pure chirps say, ‘I'm hiding here because there's an immediate danger.’” Hare told.Hare and some other researchers believe such sounds are part of an advanced language that develops just as all other co mmunication systems.Although squirrels risktheir lives when they call out to warn others of threats, other s quirrels might admire this behaviour, thus increasingly the call er's social status, like humans who look up to heroes. Hare ad ded that other animals, such as birds, probably understand at least some squirrel language, since they also may benefit fro m the alarm calls.In fact, another Canadian study found that deepvoiced, blackc apped chickadees have their own language, too.According to certain research, there are a lot of tidings in chickadees' calls, such as directing fellows' activities, keeping in contact betwe en mates, and raising alarms.While chickadees and other birds are often welcomed into g ardens by homeowners, squirrels are frequently viewed as pe sts(害兽). Hare wishes a greater understanding of the complex soci al lives and communication systems of squirrels will provide “hope that humans will gain a greater appreciation and stop do ing harm to these animals”．1．The text mainly talks about ________．A．the study on the language of squirrelsB．the comparison between squirrels and chickadees C．the calling for the protection of squirrelsD．the ways for squirrels to escape from their enemies2．If a squirrel is in a very dangerous situation, it would proba bly make ________．A．whistles with chucksB．pure chirpsC．whistles without chucksD．repeated chucks3．The underlined word “tidings” in Paragraph 6 probably me ans “________”．A．difficulties B．poisesC．messages D．languages4．What can be learned from this text?A．Squirrels communicate with each other as humans do. B．Some squirrels understand the recorded alarm calls. C．Other animals also well understand the language of squirr els.D．Birds such as chickadees don't have their own language.(二)【要点综述】本文主要讲了Hare以及他带领的团队对松鼠们所使用的语言进行的研究。

Physical fitne ss refers to good health, and is the result of regular exercise, proper diet and nutrition, and proper rest for physical recovery. A person who is physically fit will be able to walk or run without getting breathless and he or she will be able to carry out the activities of everyday living and will not need help. How much each person can do will depend on their age and whether they are a man or woman. A physically fit person usually has a normal weight for height. The relation between height and weight is called the Body Mass Index. A taller person can be heavier and still be fit. If a person is too heavy or too thin for the height it may affect the health. 矚慫润厲钐瘗睞枥。
Mental health refers to a person's emotional and psychological well-being. "A state of emotional and psychological well-being in which an individual is able to use his or her thinking and emotional (feeling) abilities, function in society, and meet the ordinary demands of everyday life." 聞創沟燴鐺險爱氇。

From the quality of our family time to our interactions at work, our relationships are largely responsiblefor our career success or failure. Here are some guidelines.People who focus on themselves when interacting with others rarely build positive lasting relationships. Instead，they should become good listeners and encourage others to talk about themselves.All the skills and education in the world will never impress anyone as much as sincere, heartfelt care for them. Plus, few things have a more positive effect on others than finding out and remembering things about them. Knowing a lot about people is a real display of your care for them，and it creates a lasting bond.Give your relationship something positive when you meet，such as ideas，opportunities，and resources. Besides giving, be willing to receive from the other person. In fact, one of the best ways to start a relationship is to ask for advice or a favor. Everyone loves to show his expert knowledge and authority on a subject, because it makes him feel honored and respected.Try to use conflict as a tool，not a weapon. The presence of conflict in a relationship is natural and healthy. Damage only occurs when we react inappropriately to it. To learn more about the other person and find a solution that serves both of you, relationships could become stronger and deeper.Relationships break up quickly when others can't count on you, so say what you mean and stick to your word. Few things damage a friendship more severely than breaking a trust.If people know more about the value of good relationships, they can achieve both personal satisfaction and professional success. If you aren't naturally gifted in this area, don't worry. You can learn to improve them in your life and career.1．relationship2．focus/concentration/center3．impress4．Displaying/Showing5．positive6．Turning/Referring7．appropriate8．strengthen/improve/enhance9．reliable/honest10．professionally[阅读理解之信息匹配(二)]-----A阅读下列应用文及相关信息，并按照要求匹配信息。

安徽凤台县2016高考英语阅读理解二轮（能力）练习(6)及答案阅读理解。
阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项(A、B、C和D）中，选出最佳选项.“Luck is a ma tter of preparation meeting opportunity," said the American talk show host Oprah Winfrey。
I’ve never watched her show，but when a self－made billionaire gives life advic e, it’s probably worth listening to。
Her point is that blind luck is very rare. You may have to be lucky to find a good job these days but that does not mean you should sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to you。
If you're a Chinese，you may already be familiar with the tale of a farmer waiting by a tree stump （树桩）for a rabbit to run out and break its neck。
A book written by the UK psychologist Richard Wiseman，called The Luck Factor, argues we can all make ourselves luckier。
It’s not about going to a temple to burn some incense (香）in hopes that the gods will give you good fortune;it’s practical advice you can follow each day。

安徽凤台县2016高考英语阅读理解二轮（能力）练习(1)及答案2016高考训练(由2014·湖北卷D改编）You've flown halfway around the world；you’ve sniffed out this place that nobody in Falongland or Thailand seems to have ever heard of；so what on earth is there to do here? You consider this question as you sink into an old wooden beach chair that holds you above the sand。
It was a long journey from Bangkok to Huaplee. By the time you found the bus station and got yourself sorted out，it took almost as long as the flight from Falongland。
Huaplee is located just south of Hua Hin, about two hundred kilometres from Bangkok，down the west side of the Gulf of Thailand。
Not many tourists find this place, and the ones that do wonder if finding it has been their purpose all along。
There’s an apparent laziness that surrounds you here. It’s what this place offers，and it’s free of charge。

When I was 8 years old, I decided to run away from home after a quarrel with my mother。
With my suitcase packed and some sandwiches in a bag，I started for the front door。
My mo m asked where I was going. “I’m leaving home,” I said.“What’s that you’re carrying?” she asked。
“Some clothes and food，" I replied。
“If you want to run away，that’s all right，” she said. “But you came into this home without anything and you can leave the same way.”I threw my suitcase and sandwiches on the floor and started for the door again.“Wait a minute," Mom said. “You didn’t have any clothes on when you arrived, and I want them back.”This infuriated me。
I tore my clothes off - shoes，socks，underwear and all — and shouted，“Can I go now?”“Yes，” my mom answered，“but once you close that door, don’t expect to come back。

“Luck is a ma tter of preparation meeting opportunity，” said the American talk show host Oprah Winfrey. I’ve never watched her show, but when a self－made billionaire gives life advice, i t’s probably worth listening to.Her point is that blind luck is very rare. You may have to be lucky to find a good job these days but that does not mean you should sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to you. If you’re a Chinese，you may already be familiar with the tale of a farmer waiting by a tree stump (树桩) for a rabbit to run out and break its neck.A book written by the UK psychologist Richard Wiseman, called The Luck Factor, argues we can all make ourselves luckier. It’s not about going to a temple to burn some incense (香) in hopes that the gods will give you good fortune；it’s practical advice you can follow each day.Wiseman conducted an experiment as part of his studies. First he separated volunteers into two groups：those who said they were lucky in life and those who said they were not. He gave everyone a newspaper and asked them to look through it to count how many photographs it had inside. On average, the unlucky people took about two minutes to count the photographs while the lucky people took just seconds. Why? On the second page of the newspaper, a command, “Stop counting. There are 43 photographs in this newspaper，” was written in big letters. The unlucky people mostly did not spot the message.It’s eas y to compare this situation to a young person looking for jobs in a local paper. They might search so hard for one type of position that they miss an even better opportunity. People who are “lucky”，in fact, keep an open mind and don’t go through the same routine every day.I first came to China in 2002 when it was considered a rather strange thing to do. Like many foreigners，my plan was to teach English for one year. Seven years later, and still here, I’ve had many great opportunities such as writing for newspapers and magazines. I did not dream these would have been possible. I’ve also never beensick, had an accident, got into a fight or had problems with the police. Coincidence? After reading about Professor Wiseman’s studies I think not.As Wiseman advises, I usually trust my own judgment. Your friends and parents may give you advice based on rational thi nking, but it’s important to consider how you feel about each choice you make. Your feeling acts as a warning for a potential problem. Finally, try to turn bad luck into good.Even if you do fall down and break a leg, the time spent at home can be used wisely to study English.1. Which of the follow ing proverbs most agrees with the writer’s point?A．Make the best of a bad job.B．Rome was not built in a day.C．All that glitters is not gold.D．A good heart conquers ill fortune.2. What do you know about Oprah Winfrey?A．She became famous through her family background.B．She was very lucky and seldom suffered setbacks in her life.C．She is a British talk show host.D．She became successful by her own effort.3. The writer quoted the Chinese tale of a farmer in order to show________.A. luck is in your own handB．bad luck can turn into goodC．you should not sit at home waiting for the opportunity to come to youD．man can conquer nature4.

We know that the earth has become warmer over the last century. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), a group established by the World Meteorological Organization and the United Nations Environment Program, reports that the average surface temperature of the earth has increased during the twentieth century by 0.6°+ 0.2°C.(The + 0.2°C means that the increase might be as small as 0.4°C or as great as 0.8°C). This may seem like a small shift, but although regional and short—term temperatures do fluctuate(变动) over a wide range, global temperatures are generally quite stable. In fact, the difference between today’s average global temperature and the average global temperature during the last Ice Age is only about 5 degrees C. Indeed, it’s warmer today around the world than at any time during the past 1,000years, and the warmest years of the previous century have occurred within the past decade.We also know that human activities—primarily the burning of fossil fuels—have increased the greenhouse gas content of the earth’s atmosphere significantly over the same period. Carbon dioxide is one of the most important greenhouse gases, which trap heat near the planet’s surface.The vast majority of climate researchers agree with these overall findings. The scientific disagreements that do still exist primarily concern detailed aspects ofthe processes that make up these largely accepted general themes.You can think of this website as a window into the world of scientific research. In this primer, you’ll find a general discussion of the physical processes underlying the earth’s climate, an outline of the kinds of data that may shed light on how the climate is changing—and the role of human activity in these changes—and a description a some of the questions and uncertainties that researchers continue to explore. This primer is organized into four interconnected sections: the Atmosphere; the Hydrosphere(水圈); the Cryosphere(低温层); and the Biosphere(生物层).4.We know from the text that “IPCC”___.A.engages in the climate and changes about the earth.B.is a group by scientists who like to walk around the moonC.works in the World Meteorological OrganizationD.often greets the passers-by from the outer space5.We know from the text that carbon dioxide ___.A.is one of the most important greenhouse gasesB.has fossil fuelsC.traps cold near the planet’s surfaceD.exist in human activities6.From the text, we know when we say the temperature of something has increased by about 0.7+ 0.2°C, the + 0.2°C means___.A.the increase might by as small as 0.3°C or as great as 0.7°CB.the increase might by as small as 0.5°C or as great as 0.8°CC.the increase might by as small as 0.5°C or as great as 0.9°CD.the increase might by as small as 0.4 C or as great as 0.8°C7.What would be the best title for this text?A.What Are the Scientific DisagreementsB.You Can Think of This WebsiteC.What Do We Know about Global Climate Change?D.The Vast Majority of Climate Researchers参考答案8-11AACC2016高考训练--阅读理解。
