If you ride the subway or bus 2 you live, you can appreciate some of the benefits of public transportation. With many people 3 (share) one bus or train, there is less traffic and, more 4 （importance）, less pollution.Which of the types of mass transit 5 (describe) below are you familiar with? If a regular bus can hold dozens of people, imagine what a bus 6 (two) the size can hold!

2023-2024学年广东茂名人教版高考专题英语高考模拟1.阅读理解第1题. If you feel sick or uncomfortable, you might seek out a doctor. But what to do if you don’t quite know where you fit into this world and you’re tired of carrying that burden alone?I answered strangers’ questions on life puzzles at the entrance to the New York City subway at 57th and 8th. A group of strangers had stopped by because they were carrying around some deep, meaningful questions that had long gone unanswered, like why c an’t I be happier in my life?And then I spotted her, who would be my toughest questioner of the day. She was about 6 years old and held her mother’s hand as she craned (伸长脖子) her neck to stare at us. Her mother stopped, but the girl hesitated. It’s OK, I offered. Do you have a question? The girl smiled at her mother, then let go of her hand to walk over towards us. She looked me dead in the eye and said: How do I know I’m real?Suddenly I was back in graduate school. Should I talk about the French philosopher Rene Descartes to prove our existence, with the phrase I think, therefore I am? Or, mention English philosopher G. E. Moore and his famous here is one hand, here is the other, to prove the existence of the external world? But then the answer came to me. I remembered that the most important part of philosophy was feeding our sense of wonder. Close your eyes, I said. She did. Well, did you disappear? She smiled and shook her head, then opened her eyes. Congratulations, you’re real.She grinned (露齿而笑) broadly and walked over to her mother, who looked back at us and smiled.（1）Why did the author show up at the entrance of the subway?A: To take the subway.B: To look for strangers’ help.C: To offer advice on life puzzles.D: To help strangers carry their bags.（2）What made the little girl stare at the author?A: Curiosity.B: Horror.C: Excitement.D: Nervousness.（3）How did the girl find the answer?A: By hearing a story.B: By learning philosophy.C: By referring to others’ words.D: By having a real experience.（4）Which of the following can best describe the author?A: Strict and smart.B: Honest and brave.C: Clever and helpful.D: Humorous and sociable.【答案】CADC【解答】第2题.A new study provides scientific evidence to support the idea that stress can cause a person's hair to turngray. A team from America's Harvard University said the new study is the first to show a clear link betweenstress and graying hair.Researchers from America's Harvard University discovered a clear link between stress and graying hairrecently. The team used experiments with mice to look at how stress affects stem cells in hair follicles（毛囊）.Most people have about 100,000 hair follicles on their head. The follicles are responsible for makingmelanocytes, the cells that give hair its color. As people age, melanocyte production is reduced. This causes aperson's hair to begin turning gray naturally. At first, the researchers suspected that an immune attack caused by a stressful event might be targetingthe melanocyte stem cells. That theory, however, turned out to be false. The mice lacking immune cells stillshowed signs of graying hair. The team also thought the hormone cortisol（皮质醇）, which always increasesin the body during times of stress, might be a likely cause. However, when researchers removed the gland（腺）that produces the cortisol hormones, the hair of mice still turned gray. The scientists then centered theirexperiments on the body's sympathetic nervous system（交感神经）. This is the body system that controls"fight-or-flight" reactions in dangerous situations. When the mice were subjected to short term pain or placedin stressful laboratory conditions, these nerves released a chemical called norepinephrine. The researchersfound that when the norepinephrine was released, all the melanocyte stem cells were highly activated andchanged into pigment-producing cells. This overproduction process resulted in the early loss of color producingcells.The scientists said their research could lead to new treatments for stress-related graying in the future.Graying hair is just one example of how stress affects the body. New experiments could also be carried out inother areas, as well, the team said. These could include studies to see whether stress can also cause changes inbody tissues. Hsu said she would also like to study whether stress has a large effect on the overall agingprocess. "We don't know if that is true yet. We are interested in finding out the link, " she said.（1）What did scientists discover according to the recent study?A: The mice isthe best subject.B: Gray hair has nothing to do with age.C: Stress causes changes in body tissues.D: Stress can cause gray hair.（2）What does paragraph3 mainly talk about?A: The research process.B: The scientific theory.C: The further investigation.D: The clear evidence.（3）What may expand in anount when people feel stressed?A: The hair follicles.B: The hormone cortisol.C: The gland.D: Themelanocyte.（4）What can be inferred from the last paragraph'?A: New treatments for stress-related graying have appeared.B: Stress has an effect on the overall aging process.C: Further study needs doing to sec the effect of stress.D: Stress can surely cause changes in body tissues.【答案】DABC【解答】1111第3题.For much of the past hundred years, classrooms have been designed with the teacher seated in front of desks for students. The desks are almost always positioned in lines facing the teacher. But educators now say children can do better in a less structured learning environment. And designers have been providing spaces and seating to meet those suggestions.Bob Pearlman works as an education consultant in the United States. He helps teachers and school administrators with educational planning and other issues. He told The Associated Press traditional classrooms are a thing of the past. Now students work in "extended learning areas" that include project—planning rooms, workrooms, and laboratories, as well as learning spaces for groups and individuals. Pearlman points to Albemarle County Public Schools, in Charlottesville, Virginia. The school system invited teams from all its schools to develop learning spaces that would help students deal with complex ideas and work on creative building projects. Now, its elementary school classes have exchanged traditional desks for things like soft seating and connectable tables. Another change to the design of classrooms is the ability to connect to the Internet. "Classrooms and libraries used to be the only spaces where students spent their school hours. Wireless, laptops and project learning have changed that," Pearlman said. He noted that this has made all school spaces into possible extended learning areas."Natural light, reduced outside noise and good air quality are all considerations in classroom design", says Aaron Jobson. He is with the Quattrocchi Kwok Architects in Santa Rosa, California. "More and more evidence connects the physical environment to learning outcomes," Jobson said. New designs include glass walls inside buildings and doors that increase connectedness among students and create more open space for teachers.（1）Where can students learn better?A: In well-ordered classrooms.B: In traditional classrooms.C: In less structured classrooms.D: In classrooms with modern equipment.（2）What's the change of the elementary school classes in Albemarle County?A: New desks are positioned facing teachers.B: Libraries become the places for students to learn.C: Soft seats and connectable tables are equipped.D: Students study at home through the Internet.（3）What can we infer from the text?A: School education is extremely important.B: Classroom design has nothing to do with learning outcomes.C: Teaching methods contribute much to students' exam results.D: Classroom design should take physical environment into account.（4）What's the best title of the text?A: The New Educational PlanningsB: Some Creative Teaching TheoriesC: Traditional Teaching MethodsD: The New Design of Classrooms【答案】CCDD【解答】（1）C 细节理解题。

2023-2024学年广东茂名人教版高考专题英语高考模拟1.阅读理解第1题.The young boy saw me, or rather, he saw the car and quickly ran up to me, eager to sell his bunches（串）of bananas and bags of peanuts. Though he appeared to be about twelve, he seemed to have already known the bitterness of life. "Bananas 300 naira. Peanuts 200 naira."He said in a low voice. I bargained him down to 200 total for the fruit and nuts. When he agreed, I handed him a 500 naira bill. He didn't have change, so I told him not to worry. He said thanks and smiled a row of perfect teeth.When, two weeks later, I saw the boy again, I was more aware of my position in a society where it's not that uncommon to see a little boy who should be in school standing on the corner selling fruit in the burning sun. My parents had raised me to be aware of the advantage we had been afforded and the responsibility it brought to us.I pulled over and rolled down my window. He had a bunch of bananas anda bag of peanuts ready. I waved them away. "What's up?" I asked him. "I (I)don't have money to buy books for school." I reached into my pocket and handed him two fresh 500 naira bills."Will this help?" I asked. He looked around nervously before taking the money. One thousand naira was a lot of money to someone whose familyprobably made about 5, 000 naira or less each year. "Thank you, sir," he said. "Thank you very much!"When driving home, I wondered if my little friend actually used the money for school-books. What if he's a cheat? And then I wondered why I did it. Did I do it to make myself feel better? Was I using him? Later, I realized that I didn't know his name or the least bit about him, nor did I think to ask.Over the next six months, I was busy working in a news agency in northern Nigeria. Sometime after I returned, I went out for a drive. When I was about to pull over, the boy suddenly appeared by my window with a big smile ready on his face. "Oh, Gosh! Long time.""Are you in school now?" I asked.He nodded."That's good," I said. A silence fell as we looked at each other, and then I realized what he wanted. "Here," I held out a 500 naira bill. "Take this." He shook his head and stepped back as if hurt. "What's wrong?" I asked. "It's a gift."He shook his head again and brought his hand from behind his back. His face shone with sweat（汗水）. He dropped a bunch of bananas and a bag of peanuts in the front seat before he said, "I've been waiting to give these to you."（1）What was the author's first impression of the boy?A: He seemed to be poor and mean.B: He seemed to have suffered a lot.C: He seemed younger than his age.D: He seemed good at bargaining.（2）The second time the author met the boy, the boy ______.A: told him his purpose of selling fruit and nutsB: wanted to express his thanksC: asked him for money for his schoolbooksD: tried to cheat him by his appearance（3）Why did the author give his money to the boy?A: Because he had enough money to do that.B: Because he had learnt to help others since childhood.C: Because he held a higher position in the society.D: Because he had been asked by the news agency to do so.（4）Which of the following best describes the boy?A: Brave and polite.B: Kind and smart.C: Honest and thankful.D: Shy and nervous.【答案】BABC【解答】（1）B 推理判断题。

茂名市最新高考英语阅读理解复习题(附答案)

茂名市最新高考英语阅读理解复习题(附答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解Do you know that junk food isn't healthy? Of course you do! Do you eat it anyway? Of course you do! But a new study shows teaching adolescents about the ways food companies fool them into thinking junk food is cool can encourage kids to fight back—by eating healthier.The pull of junk food can be super-strong. It's designed to tasty; which makes eating well one of the great health challenges of our time. Everyone from doctors to the government has been trying to handle it. Yet we keep eating junk food.Professor Christopher Bryan says, "Food companies want you to want junk food." They spend millions of dollars coming up with new ways to^ promote junk food consumption. They hire scientists to make new junk food almost irresistible. They might do this, for example, by adding more sugar. Rats fed junk food for six weeks will even walk across a floor that gives them electric shocks just to get more of such food.Food ads often make unhealthy junk food seem healthy by featuring professional athletes, fit-looking pop stars and smiling, active teens. "We thought when the students learned this, it would matter to them," Bryan says. He worked with 8th graders at a Texas school. Half of them got a lesson Bryan created. It focused on the ways junk food is advertised, or marketed. A second group received lessons that focused on health. These lessons informed students junk food is had, and that foods like apples or carrots are a better choice. The students learned a bad diet can lead to major weight gain, and that being overweight puts people at risk for serious diseases. They also learned how eating well now can keep you healthy when you're older.After the lessons, the kids in both groups were asked how they felt about junk food.
