A land of diversity一、阅读理解Vinegar makes salad, fries and dumplings taste better, and you can even use it to clean your windows. And now, according to scientists, it may even the planet’s population survive climate change.Researchers from the RIKEN Center for Sustainable Resource Science (CSRS) in Japan found that growing plants in vinegar makes them more resistant to droughts. This could mean that in the future, worries about climate change affecting the world’s supply of food will be much lower. The discovery was made after the researchers studied the Arabidopsis, a plant known for its ability to survive in dry weather. It was found that when the plant was placed in drought-like conditions, it produced a chemical called acetate（醋酸盐）—the main component of vinegar.After discovering this, the scientists experimented further by adding acetate to the soil of other plants, before they stopped giving them water completely. After leaving the plants for 14 days, they found that the ones treated with acetate had survived, while the untreated plants had dried up and died.It’s hoped that this simple method of survival could soon be used to help farmers in dry countries keep their crops alive. "In the experiment, we targeted the staple foods of the world—rice, wheat and maize—and the basic plant of breeding species, rapeseed（油菜籽）," Jong Myong Kim, co-author of the study, told Popular Science magazine.Kim also told the magazine he’s already been in touch with people all over the world who are interested in trying this simple and cost-effective method out for themselves from flower growing companies to amateur gardeners. Although at this point keeping thirsty plants alive isn’t as easy as just pouring vinegar over them, Kim said he and his team are working on making the process as simple as possible. "Now we are trying to cooperate with some farmers, and also some companies, to make a method to apply this system, "he said. And for those of us who always forget to ask our neighbors to water our plants when we go away, hopefully this means the end of returninghome from a trip to find our favorite flowers have died.1.What is the article mainly about?A. The world’s food supply will be increased.B. Plants better survive droughts.C. The Arabidopsis is resistant to droughts.D. Vinegar could be used to fight droughts.2.It was discovered that acetate can .A. be used by farmers to replace soilB. only be produced by the ArabidopsisC. help plants survive dry conditionsD. be used to improve poor soil3.What are the target plants of the experiment?A. all breeding species.B. wheat and Arabidopisis.C. rice and maize.D. rapeseed and Arabidopisis.4.Jong Myong Kim’s experiment of trying out the method .A. can make people’s trips pleasantB. turned out a worldwide successC. is as simple as pouring vinegar over the plantsD. appeals to many flower growing companies【文章大意】本文属于科普类文章。

I love to read before I go to sleep.It usually makes me feel calm.But a big part of this depends on what I read.I love to read Oor Wullie and The Broons.Very often I'm smiling before I go to sleep.I decide to write about this in a blog because I find that so many of us go to sleep with stress.Before we go to sleep，we may run over the day in our minds，and worry about tomorrow.We also may watch the news on TV，read the news on our smart phones or tablets，or even answer work emails.But the news is rarely proclaiming(宣告)all the good that's happening in the world and work emails make us feel that we're still at work.All these things may leave us a stressful sleep.Oor Wullie and The Broons are not the only things I ever read at night.I sometimes read novels but，with the odd exception，I mostly avoid anything that is too mentally taxing or stimulating late at night unless it's something that inspires me or is clearly helpful in my life.And even if I do read something mentally stimulating，when I feel myself getting tired I lay that book down and pick up a trusty old Oor Wullie or The Broons for the last 10 or 15 minutes.Doing this makes my mind quiet and helps ensure I get a peaceful night's sleep.Reading about Wullie or Maw and Paw Broon is like a comfort blanket for me.I'd suggest you find lighthearted reading as a comfort blanket at bedtime，especially if you find yourself stressed or depressed a lot of the time，or if you find difficulty winding at the end of a day.It is the thing that can gently turn your attention towards lightness and ease.If your material makes you laugh，then you may feel even better.Several studies show that laughter boosts happy chemicals in the brain，it strengthens the immune system，it's good for the heart，and it is most definitely good for mental health.It even helps us improve our relationships.And if you do happen to pick up a copy of Oor Wullie or The Broons，I hope you find it just as entertaining as I do.1．What can we learn about Oor Wullie and The Broons?A．They make people run over the past days.B．They are the best books to be read before people sleep.C．They are extremely popular with young people.D．They make people feel relaxed and happy.2．What can we know from the text?A．Oor Wullie and The Broons are the author's favorite books.B．A comfortable blanket makes people go to sleep easily.C．The author sometimes reads something about inspirations.D．Reading something stimulating at night helps get a peaceful sleep.3．What is Paragraph 6 mainly about?A．What material brings us laughter.B．How laughter affects our health.C．What benefits laughter brings to us.D．Why laughter is good for us.4．What's the main purpose of the text?A．To show the importance of reading before sleeping.B．To prove the importance of a good mood before sleeping.C．To tell us how to make ourselves stay relaxed before sleeping.D．To explain how to choose a book worthy to be read before sleeping.【解题导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。

题组提分练41 阅读提速练限时35分钟加黑体小题训练说明文和议论文阅读理解A体裁：说明文话题：文学与艺术难度：★★☆☆☆Plays are an important part of British culture. The West End theatre district in London is the best place to watch a professional play, but acting also takes place in every school and village hall across the country.There are over 2,500 nonprofessional drama groups in the UK today and they are an active part of community life. People from all walks of life take on acting roles in addition to their regular jobs. They do it for fun, for the love of acting and as a way to meet new people.Not everyone in a drama club is a skilled actor, but enthusiasm is considered to be more important than talent. Friends, family members and neighbours enjoy getting together to watch the final performance and telling the people they know to “break a leg (走运)”. It's a great way of bringing communities together. Also, in many rural parts of Britain, nonprofessional theatre is the only chance people have to see plays for miles around.Many people get a taste for acting at school. Every school puts on a play at least once per year, usually at Christmas, and parents love coming to watch their children perform. Any British person surely has happy memories of being in their school's Christmas play, whether they played the role of Mary or Joseph or perhaps even a sheep or a donkey.Another Christmas theatre tradition is the pantomimes (舞剧), which are a type of musical comedy for families. The audience is encouraged to participate in the performance—singing along with the music and shouting to the actors. Pantomimes are really fun to watch, especially for children.British people love going to the theatre, professional or not, and many of them also enjoy performing. If you have the chance, go and see a play in the UK.【语篇解读】文章介绍了英国的非专业戏剧的表演的情况。

“Her grades are fine； I'm not worried about that， but she just doesn't seem tolove learning any more，” Alice's mum said.She's absolutely right.I'd noticed the same thing about her daughter over theprevious two or three years when I'd been Alice's middle school English， Latin， and writing teacher，and I have an answer， right there on the tip of my tongue， to what has gone wrong.Yet I'm torn between my responsibility to help Alice and the knowledge that what I have to say is a truth I'm not sure this mother is ready to hear.The truth for this parent and so many others is this： Her child has sacrificedher natural curiosity and love of learning at the altar(圣坛 )of achievement，and it's our fault.Alice's parents， her teachers ， society at large— we are all supposed to be blamed in this crime against learning.From her first day of school，we pointed her toward that altar and trained her to measure her progress by means of points， scores ，and awards.We taught Alice that her potential is tied to her intellect(智力 ) ， and that her intellect is more important than her character.We taught her to come home proudly bearing grade As， championship prizes，and college acceptance， and not on purpose，we taught her that we don't really care how she obtains them.We taught her to protect her academic and extracurricular perfection at all costs and that it's better to quit when things get challenging rather than risk losing that perfect record.Above all else ，we taught her to fear failure.That fear is what has destroyed her love of learning.1． Both the mother and the author have noticed that ________.A． Alice hates to tell them the truthB． Alice's test scores are not so goodC． Alice chooses several subjects to learnD． Alice doesn't enjoy studying any more2． What do es the underlined word“torn ”mean in the passage?A． pained to choose B． guilty to quitC． tired to manage D．certain to decide3． What does the teacher think of the girl?A． Her academic perfection results from her character.B． She is a gifted girl with spirits of challenging.C． She is perfect in her character development.D． Her academic performance is great.4． What leads to the girl's change?A． A few failure experiences.B． Fear of failing to get good grades.C．Her mother's over-protection.D． Her not being accepted by colleges.【解题导语】本文经过Alice的例子说了然父亲母亲、老师和社会有时会抹杀孩子的好奇心和对学习的热爱。

To be sure, only children experienced some things differently fromthose with sisters and brothers. Many feel more pressure to succeed.They also tend to look only to their parents as role models in theabsence of brothers and sisters.In India, 10-year-old Saviraj Sankpal founded a support group forthe tiny minority of only children. Among other things, the group does volunteer work to counter(反对) the myth that they are not responsible. “People think we’re treated too kindly and ruined, ”says Sankpal, a computer engineering student. “But I’d like to remind them how lonely it can get. ”Most only children, however, say they wish for sisters or brothers only when it comes to caring for aging, unhealthy parents. Britain’s David Emerson,co-author of the book, The Only Child, says that such a person bears terrible burden in having to make all the decisions alone. Emerson knows from experience: After his father died, he chose to move his elderly mother from their family home, where she was vulnerable(易受攻击的) to house breakers, to a new one with more security. “The move was quite hard on her, and she might feel that I pushed her into it, ” he says. “After all, I am left with that responsibility. ”In the future, more and more only children will likely face similar choices. With working mothers increasing, many families are finding they simply don’t have the time, money or energy to have more than one child. As only children become common, perhaps the world will realize that the charge made against them is unjust. 【文章大意】本文主要讲述了独生子女在社会生活中所遇到的种种困难和各种挑战, 他们要面对社会对独生子女的诸多偏见。

]B(2017·云南省第二次检测)Officials in northern Japan are trying to reach out to foreign visitors by using comical(滑稽的) signs to inform them about local customs and food.It's hoped that the signs will make life easier for visitors.The signs are in use in the city of Morioka，where officials hope they will makevisitors who don't speak Japanese feel more welcome，The Japan Times reports.Twentysix signs are available for businesses to download online：one shows a cheerful little pig inside a bowl to inform diners that the dish contains pork.Another tells people to dry off before entering the changing room at hot springs，and shows a drippingwet man in a puddle(水坑) so large that a rubber duck has appeared in it.Short English phrases beneath each sign explain the meaning.Takefumi Shimomukai，who heads the Morioka Regional Development Bureau，says they want to do something simple but fun to attract people's interest.The area is less of a draw for foreigners than cities like Tokyo and Kyoto，and communication troubles have made some locals reluctant(不情愿的) to reach out to visitors.“Until recently some owners believed their profits from serving only locals were enough，and due to the language barrier，they may have left foreign visitors with a feeling that they were not welcome，”he says.More hitech approaches to dealing with communication problems have been rolled out elsewhere in Japan as the number of foreign visitors st year，a new app was trialed that translates rail announcements into a visitor's own language，and some regions offer 24hour multilingual(多语言的) hotlines for advice on everything from finding a doctor to sending luggage home.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。
