Whenthe world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit(联系)groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of eachother. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just fiveto ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them.Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and theirlanguages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade,industrialisation,the development of the nation-state and the spread of universal compulsory education, especially globalisation and better communications in the past few decades, allhave caused many languages to disappear, and dominant languages such as English, Spanish andChinese are increasingly taking over.At present, the world has about 6,800 languages. The distribution of these languages ishugely uneven. The general rule is that mild zones have relatively few languages, often spoken by many people, while hot, wet zones have lots, often spoken by small numbers. Europe has only around 200 languages;the Americas about 1,000;Africa 2,400;and Asia and the Pacific perhaps3,200, of which Papua New Guinea alone accounts for well over 800. The median number(中位数) of speakers is a mere 6,000, which means that half the world’s languages are spoken byfewer people than that.Already well over 400 of the total of 6,800 languages are close to extinction(消亡), with only a few elderly speakers left.Pick, at random, Busuu in Cameroon(eight remaining speakers), Chiapaneco in Mexico(150), Lipan Apache in the United States(two or three) or Wadjigu inAustralia(one, with a question-mark):none of these seems to have much chance of survival.28.What can we infer about languages in hunter-gatherer times?A.They developed very fast.B.They were large in number.C.They had similar patterns.D.They were closely connected.29.Which of the following best explains“ dominant” underlined in paragraph 2?plex.B.Advanced.C.Powerful.D.Modern.30.How many languages are spoken by less than 6,000 people at present?A.About 6,800.B.About 3,400.C.About 2,400.D.About 1,200.31.What is the main idea of the text?A.New languages will be created.B.People ’s lifestyle s are reflected in languages.C.Human development results in fewer languages.D.Geography determines language evolution.D(2018 课标全国Ⅰ ,D)We may think we ’re a culture that gets rid of our worn technology at the first sight ofsomething shiny and new, but a new study shows that we keep using our old devices( 装置 ) well after they go out of style. That ’s bad news for the environment —and our wallets — as these outdated devices consume much more energy than the newer ones that do the same things.To figure out how much power these devices are using, Callie Babbitt and her colleaguesat the Rochester Institute of Technology in New York tracked the environmental costs for eachproduct throughout its life — from when its minerals are mined to when we stop using the device. This method provided a readout for how home energy use has evolved since the early 1990s. Devices were grouped by generation. Desktop computers, basic mobile phones, and box-set TVs defined1992. Digital cameras arrived on the scene in 1997. And MP3 players, smartphones, and LCD TVsentered homes in 2002, before tablets and e-readers showed up in 2007.As we accumulated more devices, however, we didn ’t throw out our old ones. “The living-room television is replaced and gets planted in the kids ’ room, and s uddenly one day, you havea TV in every room of the house, ”said one researcher. The average number of electronic devices rose from four per household in 1992 to 13 in 2007. We’re not just keeping these old devices — we continue to use them. According to the analysis of Babbitt ’s team, old desktop monitors andbox TVs with cathode ray tubes are the worst devices with their energy consumption andcontribution to greenhouse gas emissions( 排放 ) more than doubling during the 1992 to 2007window.So what’s the soluti on( 解决方案 )?The team’s data only went up to 2007, but the researchers also explored what would happen if consumers replaced old products with new electronics thatserve more than one function, such as a tablet for word processing and TV viewing. They foundthat more on-demand entertainment viewing on tablets instead of TVs and desktop computers could cut energy consumption by 44%.32.What does the author think of new devices?A.They are environment-friendly.B.They are no better than the old.C.They cost more to use at home.D.They go out of style quickly.33.Why did Babbitt’s team conduct the research?A.To reduce the cost of minerals.B.To test the life cycle of a product.C.To update consumers on new technology.D.To find out electricity consumption of the devices.34.Which of the following uses the least energy?A.The box-set TV.B.The tablet.C.The LCD TV.D.The desktop computer.35.What does the text suggest people do about old electronic devices?A.Stop using them.B.Take them apart.C.Upgrade them.D.Recycle them.第二节 ( 共 5 小题 ; 每小题 2 分 , 满分 10 分 )(2017 课标全国Ⅲ )根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

最新2019届（新课标）全国卷英语高考模拟试卷（一）时间：120分钟；总分150分第Ⅰ卷第一部分听力（共两节，满分30 分）（略）第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题：每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
AWhen I was a kid in the 1960s. my parents had a country store in the small town of Frankfort, Maine. No neighboring houses could be seen from our place，and new salesmen were always amazed at the amount of business we did. Dad's motto was, “We sell everything.” If he didn't ha ve something in store, he would pick it up for customers on his weekly trip to Bangor.One time Dad was in Bangor getting shoes for someone at a shoe factory. He saw big boxes full of shoes and asked about them. They were the mates(一双鞋中的一只) to faulty shoes that had been thrown away. He looked through the boxes and realized that there were usable brand-new shoes in there. He offered the manager five cents a shoe. Dad made the deal and got the manager to reserve any future boxes for him.Of course Mon, his bu siness partner, was more practical, and her first reaction was, “But what are you going to do with them?” Dad bought an old school bus. He cleaned it up, removed the seats and placed big containers down both sites of the aisle(通道). When all was ready, the whole family helped to put the shoes in place. At first, it looked like we had plenty of room on the bus, but Dad kept bringing home more boxes.There was no sign on the Shoe Bus. The only advertising Dad did was to place a piece of paper beside the store exit that read “Shoes $1 a pair.”When folks asked about the deal. they learned it wasn’t that easy because they had to find their own pairs. The attraction was a combination of getting a good deal on a quality pair of shoes and the thrill of the hunt.To this day I still run into people who talk about the fun they had searching for pairs in Dad's Shoe Bus.21. The author's parents ran their store well becauseA. they always had enough supplies in store.B. they won the great support of new salesmen.C. they opened it in a very crowded neighborhood.D. they did all they could to meet their customers' need.22. Why did the customers think it fun shaping in the Shoe Bus?A. There were free bus rides offered on them.B. 'They could receive better customer service.C. They could match pairs of shoes by themselves.D. There was a wide variety of shoes to choose from.23. What can we learn about the author's father from the text?A. He had a good nose for business.B. He was clever at transforming a store.C. He was patient with customersD. He had a strong preference for bargains.BFor the past 15 years, factory owner Kamal Parmar has been running an after-school program for slum kids in Ahmedabad, India, helping them with basic skills like reading and writing and even preparing for their school tests.Parmar’s story began one afternoon 15 years ago. He stopped a few kids returning home from the local school and took their exam paper and asked them a few questions. Shockingly, he made a shocking discovery--the students, even the older ones, knew nothing about reading except the alphabet. And that left him thinking that something should be done for these children.So he invited the kids to visit his workshop every evening, where he set up a temporary classroom with metal desks. The shabby school started off with 10 students. Today, the Footpath School has a total of 155 students and many of the kids that Parmar has taught in the past 15 years have gone to attend college and build successful careers.Despite having studied only till the seventh grade, he has been able to teach the kids by inventing creative techniques. He asks them to read first and then to form questions on their own and read them out. In this way, many kids learn all seven subjects in six months.Parma r’s family are very supportive of his project and are proud to see how much of an impact he has had on the kids. His students love him. Ten of his ex-students are currently serving as teachers at the school and he doesn’t have to employ any teachers.For t hose who are inspired by his story, but can’t actually volunteer at school, Parmar has a simple piece of ads ice: “Try to educate just one child a year, and see the difference it makes to the society.”24. Why did Parmar start the school?A. To earn some extra money.B. To become a good teacher.C. To help the poor kids with their education.D. To make himself famous.25. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to?A. The students’ poor reading ability.B. The students’ bad living conditi ons.C. The students’ terrible school exam result.D. The students’ lack of basic life skills.26. Which words can be used to describe Parmar?A. Diligent and intelligent.B. Selflessly and imaginative.C. Modest and patient.D. Humorous and rich.27. Parm ar’s advice in the last paragraph is to call on more people to.A. teach poor kidsB. work in his own factoryC. contribute more money to schoolsD. listen to his storiesCIf you want to be productive, you must complete work. Almost everything we do has many stages to completion and in many situations, you don’t actually create value until you finish the last stage. Farmers can’t sell their grain until it is harvested. Automakers can’t sell cars that have made it 90% of the way through the assembly line(生产线). Most employers aren’t going to pay you for having a degree unless you finished the last class and graduated.Now all those things require starting, but if you have work in progress, the most valuable thing you can do is to pick something and finish it. Finishing is where you start benefiting from the value you’ve created. I’ve noticed that many successful people aren’t the ones who are the smartest or have the best ideas. They are often the ones who do the best job of taking an idea and completing it. A good idea fully carried out is better than a great idea that never gets completed.Does this mean you need to finish everything you start? Not necessarily, but if you don’t think something is worth finishing, be honest with yourself and terminate the project. Don’t leave hundreds of half finished efforts lying around physically or mentally acting like you are going to come back and pick them up. If you need to drop something , do so strategically and intentionally. If you’ve put significant e ffort into a project, you may still benefit from finishing it even if you wouldn’t start it again based on changed circumstances. For example, if you are in your last few months before graduating from college and realize you don’t want to career in what yo u are majoring in, you probably should go ahead and graduate because there is significant value in having the degree---even if you don’t intend to actually work in that field.What projects do you have that are currently in progress? Can you find something and finish it?28. Why do many people become successful according to the author?A. They are the smartest.B. They have the best ideas.C. They start things smoothly.D. They make ideas fully completed.29. What does the underlined word “terminate” in paragraph 3 mean?A. Develop.B. End.C. Plan.D. Support.30. According to the author, which of the following is the correct way of creating value?A. A man decides to finish all he starts to doB. Farmers hurry to sell their crops before they are ripeC. A college student chooses to study until he gets his degreeD. A student keeps a half-filled stamp album around for future use31. What is the best title for the text?A. Finishing vs. Starting.B. Well Begun is Half Done.C. Planning vs. Performing.D. It is Easier Said than Done.DThe Nazca Lines are a series of large ancient geoglyphs (地画) in the Nazca Desert, in southern Peru. It is ranging from geometric patterns to drawings of different animals and stylizedhuman-like forms. The ancient lines can only be truly taken in from high in the air, leaving generations puzzled as to how these precise works could have been completed long before the documented invention of human flight.The Lines were first spotted when commercial airlines began flying across the Peruvian desert in the 1920s. Who built them and what was their purpose? Are they roads, star pointers, maybe even a gigantic map? If the people who lived here 2,000 years ago had only a simple technology, how did they manage to construct such precise figures? Did they have a plan? These markings are like a vast puzzle.The Nazca Lines are the most outstanding group of geoglyphs in the world. There are also huge geoglyphs in Egypt, Malta, United States (Mississippi and California), Chile, Bolivia and in other countries. But the Nazca geoglyphs, because of their numbers, characteristics, dimensions and cultural continuity as they were made and remade throughout a certain history period, form the most impressive archeological (考古学的) group.The Nazca plain is unique for its ability to preserve the markings upon it, due to the combination of the climate (one of the driest on Earth, with only twenty minutes of rainfall per year) and the flat, stony ground which minimizes the effect of the wind at ground level. With no dust or sand to cover the plain and little rain or wind to erode (腐蚀) it, lines drawn here tend to stay drawn. These factors, combined with the existence of lighter-colored subsoil beneath the desert surface, provide a vast writing pad that is suited to the artist who wants to leave his mark eternal.32. What can we know about the Nazca Lines from the first two paragraphs?A. They were built as a big map.B. They were formed by nature.C. They are ancient lines in caves.D. They are huge markings in a desert.33. How many factors make the Nazca Lines the most impressive?A. One.B. Two.C. Three.D. Four.34. Why are the Nazca Lines well preserved?A. Because of the wind at ground level.B. Because of the existence of soft soil.C. Because of the climate and geography.D. Because of the thick sand on the top.35. What does the underlined word “eternal” probably mean?A. Non-stop.B. Ever-lasting.C. Real-life.D. High-end.第二节（共 5 小题，每小题 2 分，满分 10 分）据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。

Instead,he simply asked,“The address?”An hour later Steve arrived in his truck.He looked exactly as I had imagined he might:broad and bearlike,in well-worn clothing.“Can you fix it?”I asked with a mixture of doubt and hope.Steve looked at me as if responding to my lack of faith.With a cheerful shrug that suggested my crisis was all in a day’s work for him,he said,“Sure.”After a short while,Steve told me that he had to get a tool and tear up the street to the main sewer line.He would first have to get permission from the town.I registered appropriate panic.“How long will all this take?”Again,a shrug.“I should have it done by evening.”I did not want to watch the digging of my property unfold and went into town to visit some fiends.I felt somewhat guilty upon driving off in my clean vehicle,leaving Steve to such a disagreeabletask.Finally,when I went home,a sweeter sight I never saw;a period of newly paved street and all was tidy and relatively dry.I need to say,in my own defense,that I am not a weak father of two children.I’ve traveled all over the world,served in the United States Navy and earned a PhD.But the broken sewer line was my limit.Then I thought about Steve.Big,rough,and how people might judge him,if not for his appearance then for his work.And I was taken by the very idea that,no matter what crisis occurs, there is somebody,somewhere,who has the appropriate tools and settles it.24.What do we know about Steve?A.He wears neat and new clothes.B.He is quite confident of his skills.C.He always complains about his job.D.He hesitates to accept the repair work.25.What did Steve think of the author’s crisis?A.It’s a great challenge.B.It’s beyond his ability.C.It’s a part of his routine.D.It’s none of his business.26.Why did the author leave home during the repairs?A.He liked to take his time riding outside.B.He drove to turn to his friends for help.C.He was afraid of being looked down upon.D.He was unwilling to face the embarrassing situation.27.What can be inferred from the text?A.Action speaks louder than words.B.God helps those who help themselves.C.Every profession produces its top experts.D.Hope for the best,but prepare for the worst.CThe Detroit Symphony Orchestra will be performing works by Georges Bizet Friday morning. You might enjoy classical music and like to attend the performance,but live far away from America’s Motor City.On Saturday.the GoGo group Curtis Johnson is performing at the Kennedy Center in Washington.D.C.If you live overseas.going to that show is probably out of the question.But there is a solution!These and other concerts are available“live”on the Internet.You can hear them in real time with an electronic device.Both performances will be available on the World Wide Web.They are part of a growing number of concerts broadcast on computers,tablets and smart phones.These digital concerts are known as live-streaming.Technology expert Michael Antonoff says better and less costly equipment is making it easier for performers and theaters to offer music“live”online.The quality of the sound and video pictures are improving all the time,he says.Those online concerts now have as many as40,000viewers per show.People in100nations are watching.It is a huge part of our increasing global reach.For international performers,Kennedy Center officials see a jump in online viewership from the home countries of the performer.There is hometown pride when an artist is performing in one ofAmerica’s best-known concerts,says the Kennedy Center’s Garth Ross.At a recent Kennedy Center concert,a performer said he was so happy that his disabled mother back in California could watch his performance.It is not just music being streamed on the web.On December10,the producer of musical“Daddy Long legs”put the show on the web free of charge.It was the first live webcast of a New York musical.Over150,000peoplefrom135nations watched,producer Ken Davenport said.In other words,it would take his musical 2.7years of sold-out performances to draw that many people.28.Which of the following can replace the underlined phrase“out of the question”in Paragraph 2?A.Impossible.B.Easy.C.Exciting.D.Concerning.29.What results from the improvement of equipment?A.The equipment is becoming more expensive.B.Few people like watching performances at spot.C.People can watch digital concerts free of charge.D.More and more people enjoy the performances online.30.How do the international artists feel about their performances?A.Proud.B.Anxious.C.Relaxed.D.Stressed.31.What is the best title for the text?A.A Solution to Live Concert ProblemsB.Detroit Symphony Orchestra PerformanceC.American Concerts Available WorldwideD.Development of Music Electronic DeviceDRecycling is essential in today’s world.The most important reason for this is that human progress and industry have made it possible for people to have lots of things,and when people have many material possessions,they are bound to throw some of them away.This creates a lot of garbage which in turn destroys the environment.Recycling is a way for us to keep the world clean as items are broken down and used again, preventing the littering of the environment.Instead of throwing all your garbage into the trash can, you should separate paper,metal,glass,and plastic into different post should also be recycled as this is excellent food for farm animals and also makes for great fertilizer(肥料). You should try to buy products that have been recycled.You can see if an item has been made from recycled materials by its label;if it’s been recycled,it will say so.Also,instead of always buying new clothes,you can arrange to have a clothing swap with your friends.You bring clothes you don’t want and pick items you want from what other people have brought.Not only does this save the environment,but it also saves your pocketbook.Remember,what is one person’s junk can be someone else’s treasure!The saying can be applied to all sorts of things:books,CDS,furniture,etc.Also,try shopping at second-hand stores,because they often have lots of items still in good shape for you to choose.Many countries have made it easy for people to recycle,as alongside the normal garbage trucks, special garbage trucks come and pick up recyclables.However,in many countries around the world the responsibility is left up to the individual to recycle.Therefore,it must be made a priority (优先考虑的事)in society so we can continue to make our environment livable.32.Why is more waste being made in today’s world?A.People dislike the updated items.B.People own abundant belongings.C.People intend to live a simple life.D.People have made great progress in industry.33.What does the underlined word“this”in Paragraph3refer to?A.Exchanging clothes with friends.B.Shopping at second-hand stores.C.Throwing away old clothes.D.Picking up new items.34.To make the environment enjoyable,we should.A.always buy new clothesB.choose recyclable productsC.go shopping at chain storesD.arrange more garbage trucks35.What can we learn from the last paragraph?ernments do nothing in recycling.B.Normal vehicles can pick up recyclables.C.The individual seldom cares about recycling.D.Everyone should feel socially responsible for rcling.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

(2019年河南焦作调研)What's your idea of a good time? What about dancing in a rainy field with one hundred and fifty thousand other people while a famous rock band plays on a stage so far away that the performers look like ants?It may sound strange but that is what many hundreds of thousands of young people in the UK do every summer. Why ? Because summer is the time for outdoor music festivals.Held on a farm, the time Glastonbury Festival is the most well-know and popular in the UK. It began in 1970 and was attended by one thousand five hundred people each paying an admission price of £1 including free milk from the farm.Since then the Glastonbury Festival has gone from strength to strength—in 2004 one hundred and fifty thousand fans attended, paying £112 for tickets to the three-day event. Tickets for the event sold out within three hours. Acts included veteran superstars such as Paul McCartney and James Brown, as well as new talent, like Franz Ferdinand and Joss Stone. Although many summer festivals are run on a profit-making basis, Glastonbury is a charity event, donating millions of pounds to local and international charities.Glastonbury is not unique in using live music to raise money for global poverty. In July of this year, the Live 8 concerts will be held simultaneously in London, Paris, Rome and Berlin. Superstars such as Madonna, Sir Elton John and Stevie Wonder will perform in order to highlight international poverty and debt.1.What does the author mean by saying “the Glastonbury Festival has gone from strength to strength” in the fourth paragraph?A.The festival has achieved growing success.B.Great efforts have been made to hold the festival.C.The festival has brought in a large amount of moneyD.There have been thousands of fans attending the festival.2.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.The Glastonbury Festival is run on a profit-making basis.B.Tickets for the 2004 Glastonbury Festival were in great demand despite the high price.C.Both James Brown and Joss Stone were born in poor families.D.In the 1970 Glastonbury Festival, one could have lunch on the farm for free.3.We can learn from the last paragraph thatA.The Glastonbury Festival is not so popular as the Live 8 concertsB.The Live 8 concerts are held every year in London.C.London, Pares, Rome and Berlin are famous for outdoor music festivalsD.Some superstars are concerned about global poverty.4.What is the best title for the passage?A.How to have a good timeB.Charity events around the worldC.The Glastonbury FestivalD.Superstars' performances in charity events语篇解读本文主要介绍了the Glastonbury Festival及其慈善行为。

When it was her turn to pay, the cashier greeted her by name and asked her how she was doing. The woman looked down, shook her head and said, “Not so good. My husband just lost his job and my son is up to his old tricks again. The truth is, I don’t know how I’m going to get through the holidays.” Then she gave the cashier food stamps.My heart ached. I wanted to help but didn’t know how. Should I offer to pay for her gro ceries or ask for her husband’s resume? I did nothing—yet. And the woman left the store. As I walked into the parking lot, I spotted the woman returning her shopping cart, and I remembered something in my purse that could help her in a different but hopefully profound （意义深远的）way. It wasn’t a handful of cash or a lead on a job for her husband, but maybe—just maybe—it would make her life better.“Excuse me,” I said, my voice trembling a bit. “I couldn’t help overhearing what you saidto the cashier. It sou nds like you’re going through a really hard time right now. I’m so sorry. I’d like to give you something.” And I handed her a business-sized card.A few weeks earlier, a colleague gave me a similar card as encouragement for a project I was working on. When I read the card, I felt a warm glow spread inside of me. Deeply touched, I came home and ordered my own box of cards and started sharing them too.When the woman read the card’s only two words, she began to cry. And through her tears, she said, “You have no idea how much this means to me.”I was a little shocked by her reply. Having never done anything like this before, I hadn’t anticipated the reaction I might receive. All I could think to respond was, “Would it be OK to give you a hug?” After the hug, I walked back to my car and began to cry too. The words on the card: You Matter.24. What’s one of the woman’s problems?A. Her son often plays tricks on others.B. Her family can’t spend their holidays.C. Her family’s total income will decrease.D. She can’t afford the groceries.25. How did the author help the woman?A. By giving her some money.B. By returning her shopping cart.C. By helping her husband find a job.D. By inspiring her with confidence.26. What made the author want to have her own cards?A. The cashier’s greeting.B. The woman’s trouble.C. The card she received.D. Her colleague’s advice.27. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “anticipated” in the last paragraph?A. Prevented.B. Expected.C. Accepted.D. Noticed.CDieting to slim down always sounds great in theory. But with so many different types of diets, it’s tough to know where to start. Certain set of rules ab out food and exercise can last for two days, two months, or the rest of your life. Some recommend limiting your calories, while others suggest reducing your carbs（碳水化合物）. We don’t blame you if it all starts to makeyour head spin.To help narrow the options down, some health experts at U.S. News and World Report evaluated 40 of the most popular diets, and then ranked them according to factors like nutrition, effectiveness, safety, and ease. Overall, Weight Watchers was named the best diet for weight loss.The final results might not be what you think of. But if you think about it, it’s easy to see why Weight Watchers is such a star for weight loss. “Not only does it provide a healthy, effective program to shed pounds, but it also provides support for dieters through group meetings. That will keep you motivated in the long run,” the experts said.Meanwhile, the popular keto diet tied for last place, along with the Dukan diet. Whole30, another low-carb diet, was also at the bottom of the list. Why did these mainstream meal plans get a thumbs down from the experts? “The keto diet is just not sustainable over the long term,” nutritionist Lisa Drayer said. “It doesn’t teach you how to acquire healthy eating habits. It’s good for a quick fix, but most people I know can hardly give up pasta and bread, let alone beans and fruit.”“Still, that doesn’t mean you should nix（否决）your New Year’s resolution altogether,” Drayer said. “Just make sure your diet fits with your lifestyle and goals—no matter which one you choose. Before you get started, read up on the surprising things doctors wish you knew about losing weight.”28. What can we learn from the first paragraph?A. It’s hard to choose a proper diet.B. Some diets can result in a headache.C. Dieting to slim down is easy in practice.D. Different diets can be used altogether.29. What’s the reason for Weight Watchers’ standing out?A. It supports dieters both physically and mentally.B. The method it provides is cheaper and easier.C. It searched for and learned from most popular diets.D. It focuses much attention on its users’ safety.30. What problem do people usually meet in losing weight?A. Some diets are harmful to health.B. Many diets are hard to carry out.C. Body weight sometimes declines sharply.D. It’s difficult to make a decision to lose weight.31. What does Drayer advise dieters to do?A. Make higher goals.B. Keep suitable diets.C. Abandon present diets.D. Learn from other dieters.DIn a test, scientists at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory（PNNL）in southeastern Washington mixed low-activity radioactive waste—that is, waste with very small concentrations of radioactivity—with liquid glass, then let it harden into a durable（持久的）, solid material. This process immobilized（使固化）the radioactive and chemical materials within the glass, the PNNL said.“The radioactive elements are chemically bound as part of the glass material,” Will Eaton, who led the test, told Live Science. “And the glass material is a durable waste form that separates the radioactivity from the environment for a very long time.”For the experiment, carried out in April, scientists took about 3 gallons （11 liters）of low-activity waste from a tank at the Hanford Site, a nuclear production complex located next to the PNNL in southeastern Washington. This small-scale test is a key step forward in the goal of dealing with millions of gallons of dangerous waste that was made from more than 40 years of plutonium（钚）production at Hanford, whose reactors produced plutonium for America’s defense program, the PNNL said.To trap the dangerous liquid waste in glass, scientists mixed it with glass-forming materials, such as silica, and then slowly pumped the mixture into a melter that reached 2,100 degrees Fahrenheit（1,148 degrees Celsius）. At the end of the test, the scientists had about 20 pounds（9 kilograms）of glass.If the glass breaks, as it did in the test, then you have many pieces of glass. The wastecomponents are chemically bound and are a part of the glass material. The dissolution（分解）of the glass over time（which happens very slowly）depends on surface area, so cracking has a very small effect on leaking into the environment.Later this year, researchers plan a second vitrification test on about 2 gallons（7.5 liters）of waste from a different tank at Hanford. However, this waste will test different filtration- and ion-exchange methods, the PNNL said.Once this test is completed, the low-activity waste glass containers will be stored in the Integrated Disposal Facility at the Hanford Site.32. What’s the significance of the test?A. It makes reactors produce less radioactive waste.B. It provides an alternative material for the defense program.C. It helps increase the production of plutonium from reactors.D. It contributes to a new method of treating radioactive waste.33. What can we know about the test?A. The mixture was melted at a high temperature.B. Liquid waste was poured into a glass container.C. Solid waste powder was mixed with liquid glass.D. A whole piece of clear glass was gained at the end.34. What does the fifth paragraph mainly talk about?A. Instructions for breaking up the glass.B. Possible result of the dissolution of the glass.C. Technical requirements for keeping the glass.D. Ways to prevent waste entering the environment.35. What would be the best title for the text?A. Special Kind of Glass Being TestedB. Radioactive Waste Trapped Inside GlassC. Durable Material Made of Glass and WasteD. New Way Found to Recycle Radioactive Waste第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

2019高考英语阅读理解解析版汇编（21）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项。
(2019·河南省六校联考)Food is always the best weapon to fight against time rather than using cosmetics and health products. The food on the following list will help you to keep fit, maintain a healthy heart, increase immunity and spend everyday happily.Avoid Memory LossFresh cheese will contribute to memory improvement because of its linoleic acid. It is also good for your bones due to the high calcium level. Eggs, milk, whole wheat bread, peanut butter, green pepper, cauliflower, pork liver and oysters are also good for your memory. A cup of red wine everyday is good for the nerve cells.Fight Against FatChoosing the right food is an easy way to keep fit, like eating tuna fish, which is low in sugar and fat and also has few calories. Furthermore, it contains a variety of high quality protein and other nutrients, and it tastes good. Rich in iron, it is especially good for young women. Tuna fish is considered to be a great source of protein. Eating 85 grams of tuna fish will provide you with 20 grams of protein; therefore you don't have to worry about gaining weight when you eat it. Eating tuna fish is definitely a good choice to help keep fit.Clean BloodBreakfast with bread and honey is a wise choice for women. And the darker the honey, the better it is for you. According to research, dark honey is the best protection for human cells as it contains abundant elements with anti-oxidant functions. The elements found in honey will help clean your blood and prevent cardiac and cerebral diseases. If you like to exercise in the winter, you should eat more honey. The carbohydrates in honey will maintain your blood sugar level.Increase ImmunityOranges contain the most vitamin C, 30 percent more than other kinds of fruit. The simplest and mosteffective way to prevent winter colds is to eat oranges. 1 or 2 oranges a day will satisfy the body's demand for vitamin C.Young HeartFlavonol in broccoli florets can make people stronger and prevent cancer. Research conducted on 34,000 women revealed that flavonol can protect the heart and lower myocardial infraction from happening by a rate of 15－20 percent. However, flavonol in other plants such as tea or apples do not have this ability. Other than broccoli florets, walnuts are also good for the heart as they contain unsaturated fatty acid.Breast ProtectionAccording to latest US research, the risk of breast cancer in women who eat an egg everyday is 18 percent lower than those who don't eat eggs. Swedish scientists have found that rye has the same function as it has the ability to inhibit the growth of cancer cells.Maintain Your YouthNot everyone likes peanut butter, but no one should neglect it because of its strong anti-oxidation functions that come from the vitamin E it contains. It is also good energy food. Unsaturated fatty acid in peanut butter can help people feel full and the carbohydrates in it can give people greater physical strength and vigor.1.Who will pay much attention to this passage?A.Those who are suffering diseases.B.Those who are intended to keep fit and stay beautiful.C.Those who are in need of advice on health.D.Those who are old and in bad condition.2.Which statement is TRUE?A.Only eggs, milk, whole wheat bread, peanut butter are good for your memory.B.Fresh cheese is also good for your bones due to its linoleic acid.C.A cup of red wine everyday can avoid memory loss.D.Containing a variety of high quality protein and other nutrients, Tuna fish doesn't taste good.3.If you want to clean your blood, what should you take in?A.Whole wheat bread.B.Honey.C.Tea.D.Oranges.4.What can we conclude from the last two paragraphs?A.All of us don't like peanut butter though we can't neglect it.B.Eating an egg every day can inhibit the growth of cancer cells.C.Peanut butter isn't popular because it is good energy food.D.The more eggs, the less risk of breast cancer.语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。

一轮复习高考英语二模试卷分类汇编阅读理解(及答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1．（2019•天津）阅读理解Would you BET on the future of this man？He is 53 years old. Most of his adult life has been a losing struggle against debt and misfortune. A war injury has made his left hand stop functioning, and he has often been in prison. Driven by heaven-knows-what motives, he determines to write a book.The book turns out to be one that has appealed to the world for more than 350 years. That former prisoner was Cervantes, and the book was Don Quixote（《堂吉诃德》）. And the story poses an interesting question: why do some people discover new vitality and creativity to the end of their days, while others go to seed long before？We've all known people who run out of steam before they reach life's halfway mark. I'm not talking about those who fail to get to the top. We can't all get there. I'm talking about people who have stopped learning on growing because they have adopted the fixed attitudes and opinions that all too often come with passing years.Most of us, in fact, progressively narrow the variety of our lives. We succeed in our field of specialization and then become trapped in it. Nothing surprises us. We lose our sense of wonder. But, if we are willing to lean, the opportunities are everywhere.The things we learn in maturity seldom involve information and skills. We learn to bear with the things we can't change. We learn to avoid self-pity. We learn that however much we try to please, some people are never going to love us-an idea that troubles at first but is eventually relaxing.With high motivation and enthusiasm, we can keep on learning. Then we will know how important it is to have meaning in our life. However, we can achieve meaning only if we have made a commitment to something larger than our own little egos（自我）, whether to loved ones, to fellow humans, to work, or to some moral concept.Many of us equate（视……等同于）"commitment" with such "caring" occupations as teaching and nursing. But doing any ordinary job as well as one can is in itself an admirable commitment. People who work toward such excellence whether they are driving a truck, or running a store-make the world better just by being the kind of people they are. They've learned life's most valuable lesson.（1）The passage starts with the story of Cervantes to show that_________.A. loss of freedom stimulates one's creativityB. age is not a barrier to achieving one's goalC. misery inspires a man to fight against his fateD. disability cannot stop a man's pursuit of success（2）What does the underlined part in Paragraph 3 probably mean？A. End one's struggle for liberty.B. Waste one's energy taking risks.C. Miss the opportunity to succeed.D. Lose the interest to continue learning.（3）What could be inferred from Paragraph 4?A. Those who dare to try often get themselves trapped.B. Those who tend to think back can hardly go ahead.C. Opportunity favors those with a curious mind.D. Opportunity awaits those with a cautious mind.（4）What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph 5?A. A tough man can tolerate suffering.B. A wise man can live without self-pity.C. A man should try to satisfy people around him.D. A man should learn suitable ways to deal with life.（5）What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?A. To provide guidance on leading a meaningful adult life.B. To stress the need of shouldering responsibilities at work.C. To state the importance of generating motivation for learning.D. To suggest a way of pursuing excellence in our lifelong career.【答案】（1）B（2）D（3）C（4）D（5）A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文，讲述要成功，就需要不断的学习，这样的生活才会有意义。

I realized that whenever I’m watching TV or typing a report, I always start mindlessly cracking sunflower seeds. My friend doesn’t like sun flower seeds, and, to him, it seems unnecessary to work so much just to get one small seed.When we were young, the whole family would usually get together for Chinese New Year. Then, we all lived close to one another, usually in a small city, and sometime even neighbors would go door-to-door on Chinese New Year’s Eve to check out what every household was making.I remember my parents would be in the kitchen cooking. Out in the living room, a large table would already be laid out, complete with fancy tablecloth, ready-made dumping fillings, and dishes full of candy, fruits and sunflower seeds.Some of the dishes were to be offered to our ancestors later, while others were for neighbors and children to eat before the evening feast. I must have learned how to crack sunflower seeds back then.I don’t think it’s right to criticize one’s choice in food or eating habits, no matter how strange they may seem.It’s not only in China. When I went abroad, I found people had all sorts of strange habits when it came to food. In Denmark, they put salted red fish on bread and eat it for dinner, no matter how much it ruins your breath. They think it’s a delicacy, and it’s connected to their culture. I think it’s a wonderful tradition.24. What did the writer become aware of?A. She had ever typed a report about seeds.B. She are various snacks while watching TV.C. She had a habit of cracking sunflower seeds.D. She damaged her teeth by eating sunflower seeds.25. What does the writer prove by mentioning Chinese New Year?A. The traditions of celebrating it disappear.B. Children can eat delicious food on that day.C. The families get together for it.D. Eating sunflower seeds is related to it.26. The writer’s attitude to Denmark’s way of eating bread is______.A. acceptableB. criticalC. neutralD. doubtful27. What lesson can we learn from the story?A. One kind of food doesn’t necessarily suit everyone.B. Eating habits come from a certain culture.C. It is good to form healthy eating habits.D. Changing your eating habits will change your life.CIn 2011, British wildlife photographer David Slater traveled to the Tangkoko Nature Reserve on the island of Sulawesi in Indonesia. After following about 25 endangered black monkeys in the forest, Slater set up his camera. The monkeys went up to it, and were attracted by it immediately. Finally, they began playing with the camera and took photos of themselves. One monkey took many photos, some of which appeared with a July 2011 Daily Mail article about Slater playing with the monkeys. One of the photos became the cover of a book of Slater’s work. Wildlife Personalities, which was published in 2014 by Blurb, Inc., in San Francisco. Slater is considered as the copyright owner of the photos.In September 2015, however, the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) considered the monkey it calls Naruto as the copyright owner of the photos. Through his “friends” at PETA, Naruto was suing (控诉) the photographer and the publishing company Blurb for copyright: “The photos resulted from the purposeful actions of Naruto and were not helped by Slater, resulting in works of authorship… by Naruto.”“If a human had taken a photo with Slater’s camera, that person would own the copyright to the photo,” says Jeff Kerr o£ PETA. “Naruto should be treated no differently.”The lawyer for Slater and Blurb, Andrew Dhuey, required that the case be dismissed in November 2015. Dhuey mentioned a 2004 case in which the court had to decide whether whales could sue the US Navy for the danger they’d received from machines used by the Navy. The court ruled that they could not.In January, the court ruled in favor of dismissing the case. PETA lawyer Jeff Kerr objected, “We believe it has been stated clearly in the Copyright Ac t. The Act allows courts to fill in decisions like this one.”28. What’s the purpose of Paragraph 1?A. To tell a story to support the topic.B. To give the background information.C. To express the author’s opinion.D. To attract readers’ attention.29. Why did PETA challenge the copyright of the photos?A. The camera was not Slater’s.B. Slater did harm to Naruto.C.

Slater can’t use t he photos anymore.D.Slater should pay some money to PETTA.DAs Congress and the public wrestle with the Facebook scandal, many people are now realizing the risks of data collection to them. Facebook recently admitted that nearly all of its 2.2 billion users have had data scraped（篡改）by “ill-natured” people or companies. The firm itself has joined calls for better privacy regulations.For years, watchdogs have been warning about sharing information with data-collecting companies. Most casual internet users are only now realizing how easy and common it is for irresponsible and unknown organizations to collect detailed digital data of them. They do this by combining the separate bits of information consumers have given up to e-tailers, health sites, quiz apps and countless other digital services.A study from researchers at the University of Queensland shows that staying off of Facebook for five days can actually lower levels of the stress in the body. Yet despite the study, and the recent DeleteFacebook movement, Facebook user statistics remain strong.As scholars of public responsibility and digital media systems, we know that the business of social media is based on user data and offering it for sale. There’s no single way for them to protect data as many users might expect. Like the social pollution of fake news, bullying（欺诈）and junk mail that Facebook’s platform spreads, the company’s privacy crisis also results from a power imbalance—Facebook knows nearly everything about its users, who know little to nothing about it.It’s not enough for people to delete their Facebook accounts. Nor is it likely that anyone will successfully replace it with a non-profit alternative centering on privacy and responsibility. Besides, this problem is not specific just to Facebook! Other companies, including Google and Amazon, also gather and use extensive personal data, and are locked in a digital arms race that we believe threatens to destroy privacy altogether.32. What does the underlined word “this” in the second pa ragraph refer to?A. Sharing information with data-collecting.B. Collecting detailed digital data of consumers.C. Combining the separate information of companies.D. Quiz apps and countless other digital services.33. We can infer from the text that protecting personal data is .A. difficultB. easyC. voluntaryD. dangerous34. What would be the best title for the text?A. The Personal Data of People.B. The Online Quiz App.C. The Business of Facebook.D. Fa cebook’s Privacy Troubles.35. What will the writer most probably discuss next?A. Policy for Google and Amazon.B. Business pattern of Facebook.C. Age range of Facebook consumers.D. Measures about personal data security.第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Sadly, not all managers agree with the policy.Companies that offer employees Friday afternoons off usually expect the hours to be made publishers Pan Macmillan and Penguin Random House (PRH) are among those offering summer hours.At PRH, those who wish to take off Friday afternoons are expected to work an extra 45 minutes a day from Monday to Thursday.On Fridays, a rota(值班表)ensures each team has been covered.“Most of us don't leave at exactly l p．m.，”Editor Anderson says.“Depending on your workload, y ou might just leave an hour or so early, but it's still nice to do.”Simon Hayward, CEO of Cirrus, says that the “Summer Fridays” policy requires trust, and that managers need to be seen to take advantage of the offer too.“If a manager offers summer Fridays and then obviously expects employees to work on Friday afternoons, there is a risk associated with it that reduces the sense of wellbeing(幸福)．I think there's a genuine fear in some organizations about flexible working hours.Do you trust your employees to do their best for the business as well as for themselves and their families，or do you fundamentally mistrust them？”Managers in the former camp tend to be comfortable with summer hours.Those in the_latter worry that summer Fridays will lead to late Monda ys and longlunch Tuesdays.文章大意：本文主要讨论星期五下午的休假制度。

A person who does not sleep dies faster than a person who does not eat. We spend about a third (1/3) of our lives sleeping. That’s about 121 days a year!How much sleep do we need? We are all different. A baby needs 16 hours of sleep every day. Children 6 to 12 years old need an average (平均) of 10 to 12 hours of sleep. Teenagers need 9 to 10 hours of sleep. An adult needs an average of 7 to 8 hours a night. There are some people who need only 3 hours of sleep. Others need 10 hours of sleep. After the age of 50, the average sleep time goes down to 6.5 hours a night. We need less sleep as we get older.About one in three Americans has a problem with sleep. Many of these people can’t fall asleep. The name of this problem is insomnia. Some people say, “I didn’t sleep all night.” But that’s not really true. They may sleep lightly and wake up several times. In the morning, they only remember the times they were awake (醒着), so they think they were awake all night. This is not a new problem. Many famous people in history had insomnia. Some of these people had special ideas to make them sleep. Benjamin Franklin had four beds. He moved from one to another to fall asleep. MarkTwain had a different way. He lay on his side (侧卧) across the end of the bed!【小题1】 If you are thirteen years old, you need at least ______ hours of sleep.A．16 B．12 C．9 D．7【小题2】 What does the underlined word “insomnia” mean in this passage?

B．Go to Sleep!C．Sleep Time D．Famous PeoplePassage CTo find out whether bees（蜜蜂）can see colours, the following experiment is made. A round table is put in a garden, and on the table is a piece of blue cardboard（硬纸版）with a drop of syrup（糖浆）on it. After a short time, bees come to the syrup. The bees then fly to their hive（蜂房）and give the syrup to other bees in the hive. Then they return to thefeeding-place which they have found. After a while, the blue cardboard with the syrup on it is taken away. Instead of this card, a blue card is now put on the left side of the first feeding-place and a red card to its right. These new cards have no syrup on them. Very soon bees arrive again, and fly straight to the blue card. None go to the red card.Picture 11. How many cards do you need to prepare for the experiment?A.

2019 年高考英语阅读理解一轮练（2）ASome years ago, writing in my diary used to be a usual activity. I would return from school and spend the expected half hour recording the day's events, feelings,and impressions in my little blue diary. I did not really need to express my emotions by way of words, but I gained a certain satisfaction from seeing my experiencesforever recorded on paper. After all, isn't accumulating memories a way of preserving the past?When I was thirteen years old, I went on a long journey on foot in a great valley, well equipped with pens, a diary, and a camera. During the trip, I was busy recording every incident, name and place I came across. I felt proud to be spending my timeproductively, dutifully preserving for future generations a detailed descriptionof my travels. On my last night there, I wandered out of my tent, diary in hand.The sky was clear and lit by the glare of the moon, and the walls of the valley looked threatening behind their screen of shadows. I automatically took out my pen...At that point, I understood that nothing I wrote could ever match or replacethe few seconds I allowed myself to experience the dramatic beauty of the valley.All I remembered of the previous few days were the dull characterizations I had set down in my diary.Now, I only write in my diary when I need to write down a special thought orfeeling. I still love to record ideas and quotations that strike me in books, orobservations that are particularly meaningful. I take pictures, but not very oftenonly of objects I find really beautiful. I'm no longer blindly satisfied with having something to remember when I grow old. I realize that life will simply pass me byif I stay behind the camera, busy preserving the present so as to live it inthe future.and notes.I don't want to wake up one day and have nothing but a pile of picturesMaybe I won't have as many exact representations of people and places; maybe I'llforget certain facts, but at least the experiences will always remain inside me.I don't live to make memories--I just live, and the memories form themselves.1.Before the age of thirteen, the author regarded keeping a diary as a way of________.A. observing her school routineB. expressing her satisfactionC. impressing her classmatesD. preserving her history2.What caused a change in the author's understanding of keeping a diary?A.A dull night on the journey.B. The beauty of the great valley.C.A striking quotation from a book.D. Her concerns for future generations.3.What does the author put in her diary now?A. Notes and beautiful pictures.B. Special thoughts and feelings.C. Detailed accounts of daily activities.D.

The bear was thin and small, moving aimlessly.Just a few minutes later, I heard my daughter shouting, “Dad! The bear is right behind us!”An agreesive bear will usually rush forward to frighten away its enemy but would suddenly stop at the last minute. This one was silent and its ears pinned back---- the sign (迹象)of an animal that is going in for the kill. And it was a cold April day. The bear behaved abnormally, probably because of hunger.I held my camera tripod (三脚架) in both hands to form a barrier as the bear rushed into me. Its huge head was level with my chest and shoulders, and the tripod stuck across its mouth. It bit down and I found myself supporting its weight. I knew I would not be able to hold it for long.Even so, this was a fight I had to win: I was all that stood between the bear and my family, who would stand little chance of running faster than a brown bear.The bear hit at the camera, cutting it off the tripod.I raised my left arm to protect my face; the beast held tightly on the tripod and pressed it into my side. My arm could not move, and I sensed that my bones were going to break.Drawing back my free hand, I struck the bear as hard as I could for five to six times. The bear opened its mouth and I grasped its fur, trying to push it away. I was actually wrestling (扭打) with the bear at this point. Then, as suddenly as it had begun, the fight ended. The bear moved back toward the forest, before returning for another attack----- The first time I felt panic.Apparently satisfied that we caused no further threat, the bear moved off, destroying a fence as it went. My arm was injured, but the outcome for us could hardly have been better. I’m proud that my family reminded clear-headed when panic could have led to a very different outcome.25. The brown bear approached the family in order to _______.A. catch shore birdsB. start an attackC. protect the childrenD. set up a barrier for itself26. The bear finally went away after it _______.A. felt safeB. got injuredC. found some foodD. took away the camera27. The writer and his family survived mainly due to their ______ .A. prideB. patienceC. calmnessD. cautiousnessCEating too much fatty food, exercising too little andsmoking can raise your future risk of heart disease. But there is another factor that can cause your heart problems more immediately: the air you breathe.Previous studies have linked high exposure (暴露）to environmental pollution to an increased risk of heart problem, but two analyses now show that poor air quality can lead to heart attack or stroke (中风）within as little as a few hours after exposure. In one review of the research, scientists found that people exposed to high levels of pollutants (污染物）were up to 5% more likely to suffer a heart attack within days of exposure than those with lower exposure. A separate study of stroke patients showed that even air that the U. S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) considers to be of “moderate”(良好）quality and relatively safe for our health can raise the risk of stroke as much as 34% within 12 to 14 hours of exposure.The authors of both studies stress that these risks are relatively small for healthy people and certainly modest compared with other risk factors such as smoking and high blood pressure. However, it is important to be aware of these dangers because everyone is exposed to air pollution regardless of lifestyle choices. So stricter regulation by the EPA of pollutants may not only improve environmental air quality but could also become necessary to protect public health.28. The text mainly discusses the relationship between ________.A. heart problems and air qualityB. heart problems and exercisingC. heart problems and smokingD. heart problems and fatty food29. The underlined word “modest”in Paragraph 3 most probably means________.A. relatively highB. extremely lowC. relatively lowD. extremely high30. What can we learn from the text?A. Eating fatty food has immediate effects on your heart.B. The EPA conducted many studies on air quality.C. Moderate air quality is more harmful than smoking,D. Stricter regulations on pollutants should be made.31. The author’s purpose of writing the text is most likely to ________ .A. informB. persuadeC. describeD. entertainDSpring is coming, and it is time for those about to graduate to look for jobs. Competition is tough, so job seekers must carefully consider their personal choices. Whatever we are wearing，our family and friends may accept us, but the workplace may not.A high school newspaper editor said it is unfair for companies to discourage visible tattoos (纹身）nose rings, or certain dress styles. It is true you can’t judge a book by its cover, yet people do “cover”themselves in order to convey (传递)certain messages. What we wear, including tattoos and nose rings, is an expression of who we are. Just as people convey messages about themselves with their appearances，so do companies. Dress standards exist in the business world for a number of reasons, but the main concern is often about what customers accept.Others may say how to dress is a matter of personalfreedom, but for businesses it is more about whether to make or lose money. Most employers do care about the personal appearances of their employees (雇员),because those people represent the companies to their customers.As a hiring manager I am paid to choose the people who would make the best impression on our customers. There are plenty of well-qualified candidates, so it is not wrong to reject someone who might disappoint my customers. Even though I am open-minded, I can’t expect all our customers are.There is nobody to blame but yourself if your set of choices does not match that of your preferred employer. No company should have to change to satisfy a candidate simply cause he or she is unwilling to respect its standards, as long as its standards are legal.32. Which of the following is the newspaper editor’opinion according to Paragraph 2?A. People’s appearances carry messages about themselves.B. Customers’choices influence dress standards in companies.C. Candidates with tattoos or nose rings should be fairly treated.D. Strange dress styles should not be encouraged in the workplace.33. What can be inferred from the text?A. Candidates have to wear what companies prefer for an interview.B. What to wear is not a matter of personal choice for companies.C. Companies sometimes have to change to respect their candidates.D. Hiring managers make the best impression on their candidates.34. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?A. Employees MatterB. Personal Choices MatterC. Appearances MatterD. Hiring Managers Matter35. The author’s attitude towards strange dress styles in the workplace may best be described as _________.A. enthusiasticB. negative C positiveD. sympathetic第二节（共5小题；每小题2，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

(A Strong Stock Marke t)The increase in the margin rate from 50% to 70% was not an attempt to stem any rampant speculation on the part of the public—actually the market seemed technically quite strong, with public participation essentially dignified—but rather an attempt by the Federal Reserve Board to preserve the sound underpinnings that existed in the market. Naturally, such a move had a momentarily chilling effect upon prices but if the FRB had been preoccupied with undue speculation, the increase might have been to the 80% or even 90% level. Such an increases in the margin rate is a confirmation of a strong stock market and since 19…,such increases have resulted in interim market highs over twelve months later. Obviously, there could be no guarantee that this would once again be the case, but if history is any guideline—and if business and corporate earnings were to continue on the same course—continued optimism over the outlook for the stock market would seem more prudent than pessimism.The margin increase underscored the good rise that stocks had enjoyed for the previous year—and the fact that a 50% rate was maintained as long as it was pointed up the fact that the rise was mainly conservative in that it was concentrated in the blue chips for the most part. In past Investment Letters we have voiced the thought that speciality stocks could outperform the general market from this point. We continue to believe that this could be the case. For example, steel stocks tend to sell at certain fixed price/earnings ratios. Below a certain ratio they are considered good value—above a certain ratio, overpriced. If a company produces a unique product it is far more difficult for market analysis to place a numerical ratio upon the company’s earnings. We have also contended in the past Letters that the stock marketreflects mass psychology as well as the business outlook. When investors—both the public and the institutions—are nervous and pessimistic they definitely hesitate to buy stocks： they seek low price/earnings multiples and high yields. These same investors—when they are in an optimistic frame of mind—become for less preoccupied with yields and more wiling to pay a premium(high p/e multiples) for accelerated growth. If the public’s attitude towards the auto industry is any measure, then this period seems to have been one of optimism.1. The title that best expresses the ideas of this passage is[A]. A Time to Sell Stock. . A Strong Stock Market [C]. Raising the Margin Rate [C]. Price/earnings Ratio in Steel2. When investors are pessimistic what do they do?[A]. They look to the FRB for help. . They buy steel[C]. They buy automobile stocks. [D]. They look for high yields.3. Why does the writer believe that speciality stocks could outperform the general market?[A]. Because analysis have difficulty in deciding upon a fixed price/earnings ratio. . Because the activity had been limited to blue chips.[C]. Because the rise was conservative.[D]. Because of the FRB action.4. When investors are optimistic, what do they do?[A]. They look for accelerated growth. . They buy speciality stocks. [C]. They look for high yields. [C]. They are more prudent.Vocabulary1. margin rate 保证金率，边际比率2. rampant 无约束力，猖獗的，蔓延的3. stem 遏制4. stem from 滋长，源自5. underpin 加强……基础，支持6. underpinning 支持物，基础（建筑物下的）7. preoccupy 先占，使专心于，吸引住8. undue 过分的，非法的，不适当的9. interim 间歇；暂时的，间歇的10. guideline 方针，指导路线11. underscore 在……下面划线，强调12. point up 加强，强调13. bluechip 兰筹股票14. blue-chip 兰筹的15. outperform 在使用上胜过16. overprice 将……标价过高17. numerical ratio 数率，数字比率18. earnings 收益，利润，收入19. contend 竞争，坚决主张，争论20. premium 佣金，酬金难句译注1.
