涿州市2014高考英语阅读理解、短文改错系列训练（4）及答案(第篇)Pop stars toda y enjoy what once only belonged to the royalty (皇室). Wherever they go, pe ople turn out in their thousands to greet them. The crowds go wild trying to catch a brief glimpse of their smiling, colorfully dressed idols. The stars are transported in their chauffeur driven Rolls Royc es, private helicopters or executive aeroplanes. They are surrounded by a permanent entourage(随从) of managers, press agents and bodyguards. Photographs of them appear regularly in the press and all their comings and goings are reported，for, like royalty, pop stars are news. If they enjoy many of the privileges of royalty, they certainly share many of the inconveniences as well. It is dangerous for them to make unscheduled appearances in public.They must be constantly shielded from the adoring crowds who idolize them. They are no longer private individuals, but public property. The financial rewards they receive for this sacrifice cannot be calculated, for their rates of pay are great.And why not? Society has always rewarded its top entertainers lavishly. The great days of Hollywood have become legendary: famous stars enjoyed fame, wealth and adulation (奉承) on an all time scale. By today’ s standards, the excesses of Hollywood do not seem quite so spectacular. A single gramophone record nowadays may earn much more in royalties than the films of the past ever did. The competition for the title “Top of the Pops” is fierce, but the rewards are truly huge.It is only right that the stars should be paid in this way. Don’t the top men in industry earn enormous salaries for the service they perform to their companies and their countries? Pop stars earn vast sums in foreign currency —often more than large industrial companies —and the taxman can only be grateful for their massive annual contributions to the exchequer(国库). So who would begrudge them their rewards?It’ s all very well for people in boring jobs to complain about the successes and rewards of others. People who make envious remarks should remember that the most famous stars represent only the tip of the iceberg. For every famous star, there are hundreds of others struggling to earn a living. A man working in a steady job and looking forward to a pension at the end of it has no right to expect very high rewards. He has chosen security and peace of mind, so there will always be a limitto what he can earn. But a man who attempts to become a star is taking enormous risks. He knows at the outset that only a handful of competitors ever get to the very top. He knows that years of concentrated effort may be rewarded with complete failure.But he knows, too, that the rewards for success are very high indeed: they are the payback for the huge risks involved and once he makes it, he will certainly earn them. That’ s the essence of private enterprise.[语篇解读] 明星的生活总是令人羡慕不已。

短文改错第一篇Last year, our school offered optional courses for the students in Senior 2. At the begin of the term, our teacher introduced several courses to us, included Music Appreciation, Advanced Math, Western Art, and etc. We selected the courses we were liked, filled in the forms, and handing them in. Several days late, the optional courses started. We went into different classroom to begin our study. During the lessons, some of us enjoyed beautiful music, but others learned amazing knowledge in math. Everyone gained which they couldn’t get in the regular lessons. Thanks of the optional courses, we had the opportunities to learn what we were really interested.We voluntarily participated in an activity organized by our school in Saturday. We got together at the Goodwill Square and handed our leaflets to passers-by, tell them the significance of environmental protection. The leaflets soon attract the attention of the public. Some of us also delivered a public speech to tell people some knowledges about how to protect the environment. They were also told where to take action in a properly and efficient way. This activity was offered us a chance to contribute to our society but I have learned much from it. I think someone should be concerned about our environment and take active part in improving it.I woke up lately yesterday because my alarm clock didn't ring. With no time for the breakfast, I rushed out of my house. I had intended to catch the 7: 30 subway, and I didn't make it. Have a little time left. I take a taxi instead. I arrived at the school only find, with great sadness mixed with some relief, that the school where should have been full of students was empty. It was Saturday. However, our ill luck showed no sign of coming at an end. When I returned home, I found myself lock out. I had forgotten to bring the key. Just my luck.短文改错第四篇People sometimes look at me in surprise when I say that I don’t need more stuff, and that I’m constant getting rid of what I do not have. “Are you crazy? When would you want less stuff?”Less is better. Less means you spend less. You need little storage. Less means you worry less. You are less disturbing by things. Less means you are freer. You can focus better things. Less means you can travel more quickly. You spend less time on stuff, and more time do stuff. Less is more. We both know this saying, that was first popularized by an architect. Own less stuff gives us more time and more meaning in our lives.短文改错第五篇Three years ago, I was addicted to computer games. I played with games day and night on weekends. I lost interesting in my studies and I was often absent from school.My parents got very worrying about me. They persuaded me to quit play games, but I wouldn’t give up my bad habit. Later my English teacher gave me some advices on how to quit the bad Habit.

涿州市2014高考英语阅读理解、短文改错系列训练（16）及答案It was late in a spring afternoon. I was sitting at a fruit stand beside Beihai Lakelooking at the shinning ripple(波纹), which awoke me to a full sense of life.A mother and her daughter were sitting opposite to me. The latter, a lovely girlof seven or eight with a pretty, small nose, was occupied with an ice cream. Hermother, holding the child’s sweater, was whispering to her.A sudden breeze blew and the child sneezed. Her mother rapidly put the sweateron her and began to button it up. In her hurry the buttons were wrongly matched,which was unnoticed by her until several had been done. The mother at once unbuttonedthe sweater and did it again. Such an unimportant incident, however, did notescape the child’s eye. “Ha-ha, mum, see how your mind has wandered!” said thegirl with a loud laughter, which brought a bit angry look to the mother’s face.As an onlooker, I imagined a good dressing down for the little girl because of theimpolite remark she made. But instead there was only an embarrassing intervalof a few seconds. Then I heard the mother’s gentle voice: “Yes, it surely has,for my heart has gone out to you!” said the mother, pointing a kind finger at thegirl’s little chest. The child blinked(眨眼) puzzlingly, hiding her red face inthe arms of her mother who hugged her gently. A smile of satisfaction spread overthe mother’s face.I was deeply moved by the scene of motherly love. What was the most praiseworthything about the mother was her way of treating the child’s behavior. Nowadays manypeople seem to forget that the best way to educate a child is not tolerating or blaming,or even moral lecturing, but tender enlightening with love. （苏州东山中学高考模拟卷）1.

Other reason is that many parents think it useless of the girls to study and they do not like them to go to school. A third reason is what some children are not interesting in their lessons.

They group together in logs and breathe air through their skin until they can find water again.The new scientific discovery came after a trip to Belize.“We kicked over a log and the fish just came crowding out，”Taylor told Reuters in neighboring Guatemala by telephone. He said he will make his study on the fish known to the public in an American magazine early next year.In lab tests, Taylor said he found the fish can live up to 66 days out of water without eating.Some other fish can live out of water for a short period of time.The walking catfish found in Southeast Asia can stay on land for hours at a time, while lungfish found in Austra，but only in an inactive state. But no other known fish can be out of water as long as the Mangrove Rivulus and remain active, according to Patricia Wright, a biologist at Canada’s University of Guelph.Further studies of the fish may tell how animals changed over time.“These animals live in conditions similar to those that existed millions of years ago ，when animals began making the transition (过渡) from water onto land, ”Wright said.[语篇解读] 最新发现：有一种鱼，即使离开水也能存活。

涿州市2014高考英语阅读理解、短文改错系列训练（9）及答案(第篇)I am a writer. I spend a great deal of my time thinking about the power of language —the way it can evoke (唤起)an emotion, a visual image, a complex idea, or a simple nguage_is_the_tool_of_my_trade. And I use them all — all the Englishes Igrew up with.Born into a Chinese family that had recently arrived in California, I’ ve been giving more thought to the kind of English my mother speaks. Like others, I havedescribed it to peopl e as “broken” English. But I feel embarrassed to say that.It has always bothered me that I can think of no way to describe it other than“broken” , as if it were damaged a nd needed to be fixed, as if it lacked a certain wholeness. I’ve heard other terms used, “limited English” , for example. But they seem just as bad, as if everything is limited, including people’ s perceptions (认识) of the limited English speaker.I know this for a fact, because when I was growing up，my mother’ s “limited” English limited my perception of her. I was ashamed of her English. I believed that her English reflected the quality of what she had to say. That is, because sheexpressed them imperfectly her thoughts were imperfect. And I had plenty of evidence to support me: the fact that people in department stores, at banks, and at restaurants did not take her seriously, did not give her good service, prete nded not to understand her, or even acted as if they did not hear her.I started writing fiction in 1985. And for reasons I won’t get into today, I began to write stories using all the Englishes I grew up with: the English she used with me, which for lack of a better term might be described as “broken”； and what I imagine to be her translation of her Chinese, her internal (内在的) language, and for that I sought to preserve the essence，but neither an English nor a Chinese structure. I wanted to catch what language ability tests can never show: her intention, her feelings, the rhythms of her speech and the nature of her thoughts.[语篇解读] 本文主要记叙了作者在不同时期对母亲所使用的语言的不同看法。

涿州市2014高考英语阅读理解、短文改错系列训练（3）及答案(第******篇)The year 2009 is the Year of Ox. The ox is a representative of the farming culture of China. In the farming economy (经济), oxen are the major animals pulling plows (犁)．Of course, the good of oxen is not limited to plo wing. In fact, they are seen as “boats_on_land” for their ability to carry loads. Besides, the whole body of an ox is full of treasures. Their meat and milk are food full of nutrition, and their skin can be used to make clothes and shoes. With all these qualities, oxen are regarded as generous creatures.In the past, oxen played an important role in the spiritual life of the Chinese. Even today, oxen still play a special part in some folk activities. For example, some people who live in southwest China will cook cattle bone soup and share it among family members when holding the ceremony for children who reach 13. They believe that the cattle bone soup represents the blood relationship among family members. In order to express their love for oxen, people in some other areas will run to shake off diseases on the 16th day of the first month by the lunar calendar (农历), and during their run they will take their oxen along，which indicates they regard the creature as human.Because of the contribution of oxen in their lives, the Chinese people are very grateful to the animal. In addition, the use of oxen in ceremonies and the thanks people owe to oxen help to develop various traditional customs, which becomes an important part of the folk culture of the Chinese nation.[语篇解读] 牛年说牛，文章介绍了有关牛的一些民间文化。

涿州市2014高考英语阅读理解、短文改错系列训练（4）及答案(第篇)Pop stars toda y enjoy what once only belonged to the royalty (皇室). Wherever they go, pe ople turn out in their thousands to greet them. The crowds go wild trying to catch a brief glimpse of their smiling, colorfully dressed idols. The stars are transported in their chauffeur driven Rolls Royc es, private helicopters or executive aeroplanes. They are surrounded by a permanent entourage(随从) of managers, press agents and bodyguards. Photographs of them appear regularly in the press and all their comings and goings are reported，for, like royalty, pop stars are news. If they enjoy many of the privileges of royalty, they certainly share many of the inconveniences as well. It is dangerous for them to make unscheduled appearances in public.They must be constantly shielded from the adoring crowds who idolize them. They are no longer private individuals, but public property. The financial rewards they receive for this sacrifice cannot be calculated, for their rates of pay are great.And why not? Society has always rewarded its top entertainers lavishly. The great days of Hollywood have become legendary: famous stars enjoyed fame, wealth and adulation (奉承) on an all time scale. By today’ s standards, the excesses of Holl ywood do not seem quite so spectacular.A single gramophone record nowadays may earn much more in royalties than the films of the past ever did. The competition for the title “Top of the Pops” is fierce, but the rewards are truly huge.It is only right tha t the stars should be paid in this way. Don’t the top men in industry earn enormous salaries for the service they perform to their companies and their countries? Pop stars earn vast sums in foreign currency —often more than large industrial companies — and the taxman can only be grateful for their massive annual contributions to the exchequer(国库). So who would begrudge them their rewards?It’ s all very well for people in boring jobs to complain about the successes and rewards of others. People who make envious remarks should remember that the most famous stars represent only the tip of the iceberg. For every famous star, there are hundreds of others struggling to earn a living. A man working in a steady job and looking forward to a pension at the end of it has no right to expect very high rewards. He has chosen security and peace of mind, so there will always be a limit to what he can earn. But a man who attempts to become a star is taking enormous risks. He knows at the outset that only a handful of competitors ever get to the very top. He knows that years of concentrated effort may be rewarded with complete failure.But he knows, too, that the rewards for success are very high indeed: they are the payback for the huge risks involved and once he makes it, he will certainly earn them.

涿州市2014高考英语阅读理解、短文改错系列训练（10）及答案(第篇)Three years ago，five parrots were set free in a wild place of Arizona，thousands of miles from the Channel Islands in Jersey where they had been looked after by zookeepers. No evolutionary strategies inf ormed them how to behave in this new landscape of mountainous pine forest unoccupied by their kind for 50 years. To the researchers’ surprise, they failed to make contact with a group of wild parrots imported from Mexico and set free at the same time. Within 24 hours the reintroducing ended in failure, and the poor birds were back in cages, on their way to the safety of the Arizona reintroduction programme.Ever since then, the programme has enjoyed great success，mainly because the birds now being set free are Mexican birds illegally caught in the wild, confiscated (没收)on arrival north of the border, and raised by their parents in the safety of the programme.The experience shows how little we know about the behaviour and psychology(心理) of parrots, as Peter Bennett, a bird researcher，points out: “Reintroducing species of high intelligence like parrots is a lot more difficult. People like parrots, always treating them as nothing more than pets or valuable ‘collectables’．”Now that many species of parrot are in immediate danger of dying out, biologists are working together to study the natural history and the behaviour of this family of birds. Last year was an important turning point：conservationists founded the World Parrot Trust, based at Hayle in Cornwall, to support research into both w ild and caged birds.Research on parrots is vital for two reasons. First, as the Arizona programme showed, when reintroducing parro ts to the wild, we need to be aware of what the birds must know if they are to survive in their natural home. We also need to learn more about the needs of parrots kept as pets, particularly as the Trust’s campaign does not attempt to discourage the practice, but rather urges people who buy parrots as pets to choose birds raised by humans.[语篇解读] 本文通过在亚利桑那州五只鹦鹉被释放的故事，说明了鹦鹉引入计划的重要性以及对鹦鹉生活习性等各方面进行研究的重要性和对鹦鹉进行研究的重要原因。

涿州市2014高考英语阅读理解、短文改错系列训练（12）及答案(第篇)Can you believe your eyes? A recent experiment suggests that the answer to that question may depend on your age.Martin Doherty, a psychologist at the University of Stirling in Scotland, led the team of scientists. In this experiment, Doherty and his team tested the perception(观察力) of some people, using pictures of some orange circles. The researchers showed the same pictures to two groups of people. The first group included 151 children aged 4 to 10, and the second group included 24 adults aged 18 to 25.The first group of pictures showed two circles alone on a white background. One of the circles was larger than the other, and these people were asked to identify the larger one. Four-year-olds identified the correct circle 79 percent of the time. Adults identified the correct circle 95 percent of the time.Next, both groups were shown a picture where the orange circles, again of different sizes, were surrounded by gray circles. Here’s where the trick lies in. In some of the pictures, the smaller orange circle was surrounded by even smaller gray circles —making the orange circle appear larger than the other orange circle, which was the real larger one. And the larger orange circle was surro unded by even bigger gray circles — so it appeared to be smaller than the real smaller orange circle.When young children aged 4 to 6 looked at these tricky pictures, they weren’t fooled—they were still able to find the bigger circle with roughly the same accuracy as before. Older children and adults, on the other hand, did not do as well. Older children of ten identified the smaller circle as the larger one, and adults got it wrong most of the time.As children get older, Doherty said, their brains may develop the ability to identify visual context. In other words, they will begin to process the whole picture at once: the tricky gray circles, as well as the orange circle in the middle. Asa result, they’re more likely to fall for this kind of visual trick.1. Doherty and his team of scientists did an experiment to evaluate________.A. children’s and adults’ eye-sightB. people’s ability to see accuratelyC. children’s and adults’ brainsD. the influence of people’s age[解析] 考查细节理解能力。

涿州市2014高考英语阅读理解、短文改错系列训练（13）及答案The snow started to fall several hours before her labor began－ a few flakes first, in the dull gray late－ afternoon sky, and then wind－ driven swirls around the edges of their wide front porch﹙门廊﹚. He stood by her side at the window, watching Sharp gusts of snow billow, then swirl and drift to the ground. All around the neighborhood, lights came on, and the naked branches of the trees turned white. After dinner he built a fire, going out for wood he had piled against the garage the previous autumn. The air was bright and cold against his face, and the snow in the driveway was already halfway to his knees. He gathered logs, shaking off their soft white caps and carrying them inside. The kindling﹙因火柴﹚ caught fire immediately, and ha sat for a time at the stove, cross－legged, adding logs, watching the flames leap, and feeling sleepy. Outside, snow continued to fall quietly through the darkness, bright and thick. By the time he rose and looked out of the window, their car had become a soft white hill on the edge of the street. Already his footprints in the driveway had filled and disappeared.He brushed ashes from his hands and sat on the sofa beside his wife, her feet propped on pillow, her swollen ankles crossed, a copy of Dr.Spock balanced on her belly. Absorbed, she licked her index finger absently each time she turned a page. Her hands were slender, her finger short and sturdy, and she bit her bottom lip lightly, intently, as she read. Watching her, he felt a rush of love and wonder: that she was his wife, that their baby, due in just three weeks, would soon be born. Their first child, this would be. They had been married just a year.She looked up, smiling, when he tucked the blanket around her legs.“You know, I have wondering what －it－ is like,” she said.“Before we are born, I mean. It is too bad we can not remember.” She opened her robe and pulled up the sweater she wore underneath, revealing a belly as round and hard as a melon. She ran her hand across its smooth surface, firelight playing across her skin, casting reddish gold onto her hair.“Do you suppose it is like being inside a great lantern? The booksays light permeates﹙渗透﹚ my skin, and that the baby can already see.”“I do not know,” he said.She laughed.“Why not?” she asked. “You are the doctor.”“I am just an orthopedic surgeon,” he reminded her.“I could tell you the ossification pattern for fetal﹙胎儿的﹚ bones, but that is about it.”He lifted her foot, both delicate and swollen inside the light blue hands, and began to massage it gently. Her breathing filled the quiet room, and her foot warmed his hands, In pregnancy she seemed to him beautiful but fragile, fine blue veins faintly visible through her pale white skin.The scene happened＿when it was early in the eveningwhen it was early in the morningwhen a child was bornafter a baby was bornWhat can we learn from their conversation?The woman was expecting her first childThe man showed little concern foe his wifeThe couple had not been prepared for a babyThe man was anything but a doctorWhat does the underlined word “it”﹙in paragraph 4﹚ refer to ?A.

[答案] B***************************************************结束“Glad to find you so merry, my girls,” said a cheery voice at the door, and actors and audience turned to welcome a tall, motherly lady with a “Can I help you” look about her which was truly delightful. She was not elegantly dressed, but a noble-looking woman, and the girls thought the gray cloak（斗篷）and unfashionable bonnet（宽檐帽）covered the most splendid mother in the world.“Well, dearies, how have you got on today? There was so much to do, getting the boxes ready to go tomorrow, that I didn’t come home to dinner. Has anyone called, Beth? How is your cold, Meg? Jo, you look tired to death. Come and kiss me, baby.”While making these maternal（母性的）inquires, Mrs. March got her wet things off, her warm slippers on, and sitting down in the easy chair, drew Amy to her lap, preparing to enjoy the happiest hour of her busy day. The girls flew about, trying to make things comfortable, each in her own way. Meg arranged the tea table. Jo brought wood and set chairs, dropping, over-turning, and clattering everything she touched. Beth trotted (小跑) to and fro between parlor(客厅) and kitchen, quiet and busy, while Amy gave directions to everyone, as she sat with her hands folded.As they gathered about the table, Mrs. March said, with a particularly happy face, “I’ve got a treat for you after supper.”A quick, bright smile went round like a streak of sunshine. Beth clapped her hands, regardless of the biscuit she held, and Jo tossed up her napkin, crying, “A letter! A letter! Three cheers for Father!”“Yes, a nice long letter. He is well, and thinks he shall get through the cold season better than we feared. He sends all sorts of loving wishes for Christmas, and an especial message to you girls,” said Mrs. March, patting her pocket as if she had got a treasure there.“Hurry and get done!
