48.Thanksgiving Day is a very important traditional holiday in America. On the fourth Thursday of each November, families and friends gather together for the occasion to celebrate with a traditional turkey dinner,usually in the mid-afternoon. Thanksgiving Day originated as a celebration of theyear's harvest and is similar to the Mid-Autumn Festival in China.This American tradition started in 1621 before the United States of Americawas established. It was a huge celebration for a hard-earned harvest in the firstyear after the first group of immigrants arriving in the New World.On September 6,1620,the Mayflower ship set sail from Plymouth, Devon, England, taking all the English Pilgrims to the New World. The English Pilgrims numbered about a hundred people, and left England to escape religious persecution.The Pilgrims sailed sixty-six days, arrived in the New World in November of the same year. They first settled in a cornfield abandoned by Native Indians and named it Plymouth Plantation.They worked on the land with much difficulty and were beset by a devastating plague in which half of the Pilgrim died in the long winter of 1620. In the spring of 1621, an Indian brave named Squanto and her Wampanoag tribe came to their help. The tribe taught the Pilgrims how to work the earth and plant corn, beans, pumpkins, squash and other crops.In late September 1621, the Pilgrims were pleased with their great harvest. To celebrate their first harvest, the Pilgrims wanted to thank God and the Native Indian. They invited Squanto and the entire Wampanoag tribe to celebrate together in a shared feast.The first Thanksgiving dinner is said to have lasted from three days to one week. It was indeed a time of happiness, fellowship and rejoicing for the Pilgrims. They arranged a friendly treaty with the Native American Indians, built houses in the wilderness, and raised sufficient crops to feed themselves for the upcoming long winter. The Pilgrims had become the first generation of settlers in this new land holding so much promise.From then on, Thanksgiving became a holiday for celebrating the harvest in the New World, and dates varied from October to November each year over the next 150 years.The first National Thanksgiving was declared by the Continental Congress in 1777. On October 3,1789, President George Washington declared that the people of the United States should observe (celebrate) “a day of public thanksgiving and prayer” on Thursday,26 November. In 1941,a Congressional Joint Resolution set the fourth Thursday of November as a national holiday for Thanksgiving.

中考英语：阅读理解练习及答案（6）Passage A中考科普环保类选练）Every year when the Italian artist Michelangelo’s (1475－1564) birthday comes around，computer users all over the world are filled with fear（恐惧） and use their computers with care. Some may even choose not to turn on their computers on March 3rd. All this fear and care are just because a deadly computer virus is expected to cause damages （伤害）on that day.What’s a computer virus then? Why do people get so afraid of it?A computer virus is， in fact， a little program that is put into other programs and that does something bad.

It hides itself in your computer system waiting for the right moment to make damages. And at the same time it keeps producing itself by copying itself onto other programs.The Michelangelo virus waits until the artist’s birthday comes around， and then it will wake up to do very bad things like destroying you files.（文件）So next time when you turn on your computer， look out for computer viruses!1.

He became an Olympic “dark horse” last Thursday by winning the gold medal in men’s freestyle aerial skiing(自由式滑雪空中技巧) at Turin in Italy. He made two almost perfect jumps for the highest score. Han had never won a world gold medal before， let alone(更不用说) in the Olympics!“I never thought this would happen，” said the 23-year-old. “I feel like I’m in a dream.” It’s China’s second gold medal at the Turin Olympics.

In 1995， a coach found his talent(才能). The coach，Yang Er’qi， said Han had the agility(灵活性) and courage to be a ski jumper. When Yang first took the 12-year-old to northern China，the boy couldn’t swim， skate or ski. But he wasn’t afraid of the high platform(跳台) and kept on training.Han almost left the sport after hurting his knee months before the Salt Lake Games. In that Olympics he only got 24th. “I was hopeless at that time， but my family and the coach stood firmly(坚强地) behind me， helping me through，” he recalled.Han Xiaopeng worked so hard that he won the gold medal in the Olympics at last. Because of his success， more and more people in China are becoming interestedin skiing. We are proud of him and we hope he will have another big success in the next winter Olympics.1.

Everyday we have to make many choices. For example, will I eat healthy food for lunch or will I eat junk food because it is tasty? Will I work hard in all my classes or will I waste time? We make choices like this every day.Making the wrong choices can bring unhappiness. We have realized that the choices we make can affect the rest of our lives.

2014年张静中学中考英语阅读理解及答案 (24)
2014年张静中学中考英语阅读理解及答案（24）CFor a long time being happy was considered natural，and there was nothing special to do about it. Now we know that we can work at getting along well with other people. It is possible to act in such a way that other people will like us better.One way is being unselfish，not wanting everything your own way or asking for the best share of everything, including the attention of your friends. Another way is to look for good points, not bad ones in other people.You don’t have to be spin eless(无骨气的)in order to be popular. In fact，you will be liked and respected(尊重)if you are not afraid to stand up for your rights(权利). But do it politely and pleasantly. One way to develop a good character is being friendly and polite to your own group, to older people，to strangers and especially to those who do not look important or do not interest you.You cannot expect to be pe rfect, so you must learn not to be too unhappy when you make a mistake. Everyone makes mistakes, and no one is to be blamed unless he refuses to learn from them. Many young people become discouraged(泄气的) when they know their unpleasant qualities—selfishness，laziness，etc. Just remember that we all have some of these faults and have to fight against them.When sometMng is wrong，it i s best to try to make it right. Perhaps you don’t like a teacher or a classmate. Try to see why，and look at yourself，too. Make sure that you are not doing something to make others dislike you. In time, things may turn out all right, then you simply have to learn to get along the best you can wi th the situation, without thinking too much about it. Worrying never helps in a situation you can’t change.27．Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined part?A.Not sharing anything with others.B.Not thinking too much of yourselfC.Not attracting the attention of your friends.D.Not making friends with people who have bad points.28．How can we get along well with others according to the passage?A.We should find out unpleasant qualities in others and in ourselves.B.We should show others our unpleasant qualities.C.We should stand up for our rights in any way we like.D.We should fight against our unpleasant qualities.29．What can we know from the passage?A.Even if we don’t have good relatio nships with others，we needn’t work at it.B.Even if someone is not important to us，we still need to treat him politely.C.Even if we are willing to learn from ouy mistakes，we are still to be blamed.D.Even if the situation cannot be changed, we still need to worry much about it.【主旨大意】如何让自己变得更快乐。

A friend of mine named Paul received an expensive car from his brother as a Christmas present.On Christmas Eve when Paul came out of his office，a street urchin was walking around the shining car.“Is this your car，Paul?”he asked.Paul answered，“Yes，my brother gave it to me for Christmas.”The boy was surprised.“You mean your brother gave it to you and it didn’t cost you nothing?Boy，I wish?”He hesitated. Of course Paul knew what he was going to wish for.He was going to wish he had a brother like that.

2014年考研英语试题及答案阅读理解一
2014年考研英语试题及答案阅读理解一Passage 1In 1939 two brothers, Mac and Dick McDonald, started a drive-in restaurant in San Bernadino, California. They carefully chose a busy corner for their location. They had run their own businesses for years, first a theater, then a barbecue(烤肉)restaurant, and then another drive-in. But in their new operation, they offered a new, shortened menu: French fries, hamburgers, and sodas. To this small selection they added one new concept: quick service, no waiters or waitresses, and no tips.Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another four cents. Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity, for the brothers had developed a strict routine for the preparation of their food, and they insisted on their cooks' sticking to their routine. Their new drive-in became incredibly popular, particularly for lunch. People drove up by the hundreds during the busy noontime. The self-service restaurant was so popular that the brothers had allowed ten copies of their restaurant to be opened. They were content with this modest success untilthey met Ray Kroc.Kroc was a salesman who met the McDonald brothers in 1954, when he was selling milk shake-mixing machines. He quickly saw the unique appeal of the brothers' fast-food restaurants and bought the right to franchise(特许经营)other copies of their restaurants. The agreement struck included the right to duplicate the menu. The equipment, even their red and white buildings with the golden arches(拱门).Today McDonald's is really a household name. Its names for its sandwiches have come to mean hamburger in the decadessince the day Ray Kroc watched people rush up to order fifteen-cent hamburgers. In 1976, McDonald's had over $ 1 billion in total sales. Its first twenty-two years is one of the most incredible success stories in modern American business history.1. This passage mainly talks about .A) the development of fast food servicesB) how McDonald's became a billion-dollar businessC) the business careers of Mac and Dick McDonaldD) Ray Kroc's business talent2. Mac and Dick managed all of the following businesses except .A) a drive-inB) a cinemaC) a theaterD) a barbecue restaurant3. We may infer from this passage that .A)Mac and Dick McDonald never became wealthy for they sold their idea to KrocB)The location the McDonalds chose was the only source of the great popularity of their drive-inC)Forty years ago there were numerous fast-food restaurantsD) Ray Kroc was a good businessman4. The passage suggests that .A) creativity is an important element of business successB) Ray Kroc was the close partner of the McDonald brothersC) Mac and Dick McDonald became broken after they sold their ideas to Ray KrocD) California is the best place to go into business5. As used in the second sentence of the third paragraph, the worduniquemeans .A)specialB)financialC )attractiveD)peculiarPassage2You're busy filling out the application form for a position you really need; let's assume you once actually completed a couple of years of college work or even that you completed your degree. Isn't it tempting to lie just a little, to claim on the form that your diploma represents a Harvard degree? Or that you finished an extra couple of years back at State University?More and more people are turning to utter deception like this to land their job or to move ahead in their careers, for personnel officers, like most Americans, value degrees from famous schools. A job applicant may have a good education anyway, but he or she assumes that chances of being hired are better with a diploma from a well-known university. Registrars at most well-known colleges say theydeal with deceitful claims like these at the rate of aboutone per week.Personnel officers do check up on degrees listed on application forms, then. If it turns out that an applicants lying, most colleges are reluctant to accuse the applicant directly. One Ivy League school calls them impostors(骗子); another refers to them asspecial cases. One well-known West Coast school, in perhaps the most delicate phrase of all, says that these claims are made byno such people.To avoid outright(彻底的)lies, some job-seekers claim that they attended or were associated with a college or university. After carefully checking, a personnel officer may discover that attending means being dismissed after one semester. It may bethat being associated with a college means that the job-seeker visited his younger brother for a football weekend. One school that keeps records of false claims says that the practice dates back at least to the turn of the century-that's when they began keeping records, anyhow.If you don't want to lie or even stretch the truth, there are companies that will sell you a phony(假的)diploma. One company, with offices in New York and on the West Coast, will put your name on a diploma from any number of non-existent colleges. The price begins at around twenty dollars for a diploma from Smoot State University.The prices increase rapidly for a degree from the University of Purdue. As there is no Smoot State and the real school in Indiana properly called Purdue University, the prices seem rather high for one sheet of paper.6. The main idea of this passage is that .A) employers are checking more closely on applicants nowB) lying about college degrees has become a widespread problemC) college degrees can now be purchased easilyD) employers are no longer interested in college degrees7. According to the passage, special cases refer to cases where .A) students attend a school only part-timeB) students never attended a school they listed on their applicationC) students purchase false degrees from commercial filmsD) students attended a famous school8. We can infer from the passage that .A) performance is a better judge of ability that a college degreeB) experience is the best teacherC) past work histories influence personnel officers more than degrees doD) a degree from a famous school enables an applicant to gain advantage over others in job petition9. This passage implies that .A) buying a false degree is not moralB)personnel officers only consider applicants from famousschoolsC)most people lie on applications because they were dismissed from schoolD)society should be greatly responsible for lying on applications10. As used in the first line of the second paragraph, the word utter means .A)addressB)thoroughC)ultimate。

BNow satellites are helping to forecast(预报)the weather. They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world. The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere(大气), because this is where the weather forms(形成). They send these pictures to the weather stations. So meteorologists(气象学家)can see the weather of any part of the world. From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixtycountries receive satellite pictures. When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare(比较)them with earlier ones. Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours. This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too. In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists. Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours. Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days. Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead(提前).1. Satellites travel _____________.A. in spaceB. in the atmosphereC. above the groundD. above space2. Why do we use the weather satellites to take pictures of the atmosphere? Because __________.A. the weather satellites can do it easilyB. clouds form thereC. the weather forms thereD. the pictures can forecast the weather3. Meteorologists forecast the weather __________.A. when they have received satellite picturesB. after they have compared new satellite pictures with earlier onesC. before they received satellite picturesD. during they study satellite pictures4. Maybe we’ll soon be able to forecast the weather for ________.A. one dayB. two daysC. five daysD. seven days or even longerA. taking pictures of the atmosphereB. receiving pictures of the atmosphereC. doing other work in many waysD. weather forecasting1.
