高中英语真题:2014高考英语阅读理解二轮限时
训练精品题（6）及答案
【深圳市2014高考英语综合能力测试题（5）】C
It was a beautiful summer afternoon. I happened to be at a local Walmart picking up some stuff for my wife when I laid my eyes on two young ladies. They were walking confidently, with their h eads held high, which made me believe that they were involved in some kind of competitive sport. They were wearing T-shirts, at the back of which printed, "Pain is temporary, but pride is forever." Thinking of these words, I automatically said to mys elf, "That's right! No pain, no gain."
Whatever is worth having is worth fighting for, and with fight, th ere comes pain! Fortunately, pain is just temporary. However, it is a necessary step you need to take to get your gain. Athletes and their coaches understand this so well. They spend so many hours and so much effort preparing for a competition. Some will think about giving up when the training is so painful, but coaches are there to remind them that "quitters never win a nd winners never quit".. So they know that when victory comes,
they will be proud of themselves and that pride can last a lifetim e.
You've probably heard the saying, "There's no such thing as a f ree lunch." Well, it is true. Everything in life has a price, whether you agree or not. To want something for free will always lead t o deception. Even if you get it, you will not value it or enjoy it, b ecause it is free.
No one has told you that life is easy! In fact it is a series of strug gles and fights. You will achieve what other people call "impossi ble" only when you are willing to endure pain and overcome fea r and doubt. Your achievement in life is in direct proportion to h ow much sacrifice you are willing to make.
Successful people are usually and wrongly labeled as lucky or highly favored by circumstances. However, if you hear their per sonal stories, you will realize that they went through a lot of trial s, but still kept on going, enduring the pain to make where they are today. If we understand that every effect has its cause, then we will grasp the fact that we do have a chance to influence th
e outcome we get in life.
36. According to the passage, which of the following statement s is TRUE?
A. Athletes are too proud to give up.
B. Gain is necessary for getting your pain.
C. If you get something free, you will not treasure it.
D. The author noticed the two ladies because they were havi ng a competition.
37. What can we learn from Paragraph 5?
A. Life is short.
B. Life is meaningful.
C. Life is colorful.
D. Life is tough.
38. From the last paragraph we know that_________.
A. success comes from perseverance
B. success comes from taking risks or chances
C. successful people are often looked down upon
D. successful people are never regarded as lucky dogs
39. Which part of a website is the passage probably taken from ?
A. Culture.
B. Education.
C. Sports.
D. Entertainment.
40. What's the best title for the passage?
A. No pain, no gain.
B. Pride is forever.
C. Pain is temporary.
D. Successful people are lucky.

较难题目特训：介绍说明类
A recent study, while showing a generally positive attitude towa rd science, also suggests a widespread worry that it may be “ru nning out of control”. This idea is dangerous.
Science can be a force for evil as well as for good. Its applicatio ns can be channeled either way, depending on our decisions. T he decisions we make, personally or collectively, will determine the outcomes of science. But here is a real danger. Science is a dvancing so fast and is so strongly influenced by businesses th at we are likely to believe whatever decisions we come to will m ake little difference. And, rather than fighting for the best possibl e policies, we may step back and do nothing.
Some people go even further. They say that despite the moral a nd legal objections(反
对), whatever is scientifically possible will be done—somewhere, sometime. They believe that science will get out of control in the end. This belief is dangerous too, because it fuels a sense of hopelessness and discourages then from making ef forts to build a safer world.
In our interconnected world, the lack of agreement in and out of the world of science can lead to the failure to control the use of science. Without a common understanding, the challenges of “controlling” science in this century will be really tough. Take hu man cloning for example. Despite the general agreement amon g scientists on its possible huge impact(影
响) on traditional moral values, some countries still go ahead wi th the research and development of its related techniques. The
outcomes are hard to predict.
Therefore, discussions on how science is applied should be ext ended far beyond scientific societies. Only through the un
ited efforts of people with hope, can we be fully safe against the misuse of science and can science best serve mankind in the f uture.
1. What can we conclude from the recent study?
A. People think highly of science.
B. People hold mixed opinions about science.
C. Science is getting dangerously out of control.
D. Science is used for both good and bad purposes.
2. According to the passage, what will happen if we hold that sc ience is getting beyond control?
A. The development of science will hopelessly slow down.
B. Businesses will have even greater influence on science.
C. The public will lose faith in bringing about a bright future.
D. People will work more actively to put science under control.
3. The discussion should reach beyond scientific societies beca use .
A. scientists have failed to predict the outcomes
B. the ties between different areas need strengthening
C. united efforts are necessary for the development of science
D. people need to work together to prevent the bad use of scien ce
4. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. Science and its applications bring us many dangers.
B. The development of science mostly lies in people’s attitudes.
C. Mankind can largely take control of science with their efforts.
D. The future of science will be influenced by the dangerous ide as.

I believe that my country, , is a perfect example for a place whe re food is particularly important. When we were little children, w e began to understand how much a loaf of bread meant to our p arents—
to some it might sound silly but for me the custom of kissing bre ad before you started cutting it was simply amazing. It's not so c ommon nowadays to treat food that way, since you hardly ever bake your own bread. Besides, everyone would call you crazy if you tried to kiss every bread roll before you ate them! But thou gh we no longer make our food from scratch (起
点), some customs have been kept--
that's why I feel so sorry every time I have to throw any food aw ay—
even though I no longer live with my parents and nobody would blame me for this anymore!
Many people of our nation are still working as farmers, eating w hat they grow and harvest and therefore enjoying everything m ore. It's widely known that you value more anything that needs your effort in the first place. In most homes in Poland, especiall y those of farmers, the whole family would try and have their m eals together--extremely difficult now, but so rewarding (值
得) ! You can share other members' troubles and successes, gi ve your children some attention, or just sit down for a moment i nstead of rushing through life aimlessly. Furthermore, your bod y, and stomach in particular will be very grateful (感
激) for such a time!
In , a wedding, Christmas or even a birthday is celebrated with a great meal. Women in the house get together and cook, some times for a few days before the event, and the extremely good o r unusual food will be remembered and widely talked about. You cannot over-
value the importance of food in the country. What's more, almos t everyone in will be as interested in the topic as I am.
56. When the writer was a child, he / she ________.
A. found people were crazy about bread
B. began to realize the importance of food
C. thought that cutting bread was amazing
D. learned people hardly baked their own bread
57. The writer feels very sorry when he/she has to throw away any food because
A. he/she makes food from scratch
B. his/her par ents would blame him/her
C. some customs still have effect on him/her
D. many p eople are still working hard as farmers
58. From the text, we can learn that, in , ________.
A. most meals can be interesting topics for a long time
B. the whole family often have meals together nowadays
C. it's common for women to get together to cook for a few d ays
D. family members can know more. about each other by havi ng meals together
