2012高考英语二轮复习专题限时训练专题2 阅读理解37（25分钟）AThe Cave Crawler mining robotWhy do human beings still risk their lives under ground and doing one of the dirtiest and most dangerous jobs in the world? It’s an increasingly urgent question,given the recent high-profile(引人注目的)mining accidents in Sago, W. Va., and Huntington, Utah. A small group of engineers and robotics experts envision(展望)a day in the not-too-distant future when robots and other technology do most of the dangerous mining work..One of the first mining robots was developed five years ago at Carnegie-Mellon University’s Robotics Institute. It was called Groundhog and it looked like a golf cart. It used lasers to “see” in dark tunnels and map abandoned mines—some of the most dangerous work in the business.The latest prototype is called Cave Crawler. It’s a bit smaller than Groundhog, and even more advanced. It can take photos and video and has sensors mounted that can detect the presence of dangerous gases. Incredibly, the robot has a real sense of logic. If it comes across an obstacle it gets momentarily confused, it has to think through the process and where to go next, and sometimes it throws a fit just like a real person.The biggest obstacle, though, is cost. The original research project was federally funded, but that money has dried up, and it’s not clear where future funding will come from. Partly for that reason, and partly because of advances in safety, mining is not nearly as dangerous as it was in the past. Since 1990, fatalities have declined by 67 percent, and injuries by 51 percent, according to the National Mining Association.Some experts predict that robots in mines will serve much of the same function that they do in the automotive industry. The robots do the most repetitive and dangerous jobs, but don’t eliminate the need for human workers.1.The latest robot is more advanced than Groundhog mainly because .A. it can map abandoned minesB. the robot has a real sense of logicC. it can see in the dark tunnelD. it’s a bit smaller than Groundhog2.We can infer from the last paragraph that .A. the mine robots will have a very bright futureB. robots in mines will serve much in the automotive industryC. there will be no need for human workers in minesD. robots in mines have a long way to go3. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage?A. High-profile mining accidents in America.B. The development of robot.C. Could robots replace humans in mines?D. Cave Crawler, the latest robot.BACBWal-Mart is not just the world's largest retailer （零售商）. It's the world's largest company, which sells in three months what number-two retailer Home Depot sells in a year.Wal-Mart exercises its power for just one purpose: to bring the lowest possible prices to its customers. At Wal-Mart, that goal is never reached. The retailer has a clear policy for suppliers: On basic products that don't change, the price Wal-Mart will pay, and will charge shoppers, must drop year after year. But what almost no one outside the world of Wal-Mart and none of its 21,000 suppliers know is the high cost of those low prices. To survive in the face of its pricing demands, makers of everything from bikes to jeans have had to close US plants in favor of obtaining products from abroad.Indeed, the real story of Wal-Mart, the story that never gets told, is the story of the pressure the biggest retailer constantly applies to its suppliers in the name of bringing us "every day low prices".The giant retailer' s low prices often come with a high cost. Wal-Mart' s pressure can crush the companies it does business with and force them to send jobs overseas. Are we shopping our way straight to the unemployment line? Of course, US companies have been moving jobs offshore for decades, long before Wal-Mart was a retailing power. But there is no question that the chain is helping accelerate the loss of American jobs to low-wage countries such as Thailand.People ask, "How can it be bad for things to come into the US cheaply?" Sure, it's great to have bargains. But you can' t buy anything if you' re not employed.There is no question that Wal-Mart's drive to squeeze out cost has benefited consumers. By now, it is accepted wisdom that Wal-Mart makes the companies it does business with more efficient and focused. Wal-Mart itself is known for continuous improvement in its ability to handle, move, and track goods. It is legendary （传奇）for forcing its suppliers to redesign everything from their packaging to their computer systems. It is also legendary for quite straightforwardly telling them what it will pay for their goods.1. How do suppliers meet the requirements of Wal-Mart?A. To sell even more goods in three months.B. To cut down the employment rate sharply.C. To charge shoppers at a much higher price.D. To run the business in a well-organized way.2. Wal-Mart's low price policy results in ____.A. more high-paying jobsB. better designed packagesC. bigger profit of its partnersD. more jobless American workers3. What can we infer from the passage?A. Still more quality goods will be provided.B. The food you get at Wal-Mart costs least.C. The value of Mal-Mart is over assessed.D. Wal-Mart is a very demanding company.4. What's the best title for the passage?A. The Fortune Wal-Mart MakesB. The Wal-Mart you don't KnowC. The Biggest Retailer—Wal-MartD. The Money Saving Tip in Wal-MartDDDBCThroughout the 1990s and 2000s until today, Domingo continued performing, singing many of the same roles but adding new roles as well, among them the title roles in Wagner‘s Parsifal and Mozart‘s Idomeneo, Rossini‘s Il barbiere di Siviglia as Figaro, Wagner’s Die Walküre as Siegmund, Lehár‘s The Merry Widow as Danilo and Alfano‘s Cyrano de Bergerac as Cyrano. From the middle 1990s to early in 2008 alone, he added 38 new roles, covering opera in six different languages (English, Italian, French, German, Russian and Spanish). The latest was the Italian opera by George Frideric Handel, Tamerlano.Giving him even greater international recognition outside of the world of opera, he participated in The Three Tenors（男高音）concert at the eve of the 1990 FIFA World Cup Final in Rome with José Carreras and Luciano Pavarotti. The event was originally planned to raise money for the José Carreras International Leukemia（白血病）Foundation and was later repeated a number of times, including at the three later World Cup finals (1994 in Los Angeles, 1998 in Paris, and 2002in Yokohama). Alone, Domingo again made an appearance at the final of the 2006 World Cup in Berlin, along with rising stars Anna Netrebko and Rolando Villazón. On 24 August 2008, Domingo performed a duet with Song Zuying, singing Ài de Huǒyàn (The Flame of Love) at the 2008 Summer Olympics closing ceremony in Beijing.The Beijing Olympics were the second Olympics he performed at; he sang the Olympic Hymn at the closing ceremonies of the Barcelona Olympics.At the Olympic games that followed, he would meet Sissel Kyrkjebø, who performed the Olympic Hymn at both the opening and closing ceremonies at those games.In what has been called his ‘final career move’, Plácido Domingo announced on 25 January2007 that in 2009 he would take on one of Verdi‘s most demanding baritone（男中音）roles, singing the title role in Simon Boccanegra. The first performance was at Berlin State Opera on October 24, followed by 29 other performances during 2009/2010 at major opera houses around the world.He would, however, continue to sing tenor roles beforehand and afterwards.On 16–17 April 2008 he sang during the visit of Pope Benedict XVI at Nationals Park and at the Italian embassy in Washington D.C. Since 1990 Plácido Domingo has received many awards and honors for his achievement in the field of music and in recognition of his many benefit concerts and contributions to various charities.On 15 March 2009, The Metropolitan Opera celebrated Domingo’s 40th anniversary with the company with an on-stage gala dinner at the Met’s 125th anniversary, in honour of his first performance in Adriana Lecouvreur as Maurizio opposite Renata Tebaldi on 28 September 1968. On 29 August 2009 he sang Panis Angelicus at the funeral mass of Senator Ted Kennedy in the Basilica of Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Boston, Massachusetts.On September 20, 2010, Domingo announced that he would renew his contract as General Director of the Los Angeles Opera through 2013.On September 27, 2010, Domingo announced that he will not renew his contract as General Director of the Washington National Opera beyond its June 2011 expiration date.Ever a sympathetic colleague, in March 2011 he refused to sing in Buenos Aires until the city settled a bitter musicians strike at the Teatro Colon.1. What can we conclude from the passage?A. Domingo can only sing in six different languages.B. Domingo won many awards because he sang a lot.C. José Carreras was later diagnosed with Leukemia.D. Domingo enjoyed world-wide popularity as a Tenor.2. Domingo does the following EXCEPT ___________.A. charity workB. promoting world sportsC. organizing anniversary celebrationsD. forming a peaceful society3. Singing at different events of world sports shows that Domingo ___________.A. prefers to try singing in different languages including ChineseB. enjoys watching sports events despite his busy performancesC. would be more than happy to do some benefit work for the worldD. knows clearly that singing for sports events helps him to be famous4. From paragraph 3, we can see that Domingo is a ___________ person.A. challengingB. strictC. responsibleD. hard-working DCCA。

手惰市安逸阳光实验学校高考英语二轮专题复习精品阅读理解部分之限时训练（四）阅读理解A breathtaking trick potentially left over from our ancestors might be found in us — the ability to sense oxygen through our skin. Amphibians(两栖动物), animals such as frogs that can live both on land and in water, have long been known to be capable of breathing through their skin. In fact, the first known lungless frog that breathes only through its skin was discovered recently in the rivers of Borneo. Now the same oxygen sensors found in frog skins and in the lungs of mammals have unexpectedly been discovered in the skin of mice.“No one had ever looked,” explained Randall Johnson, a biologist researcher.Mice and frogs are quite distant relatives, so the fact they have these molecules (分子) in common in their skin suggests they might well be found in the skin of other mammals, such as humans.“We have no reason to think that they are not in the skin of people too,” Johnson said.These molecules not only detect oxygen, but help increase levels of vital red blood cells, which carry oxygen around the body. Normal mice breathing in air that is 10 percent oxygen—a dangerously low level similar to conditions at the top of Mount Everest, and about half that of air at sea level. However, mice that had the oxygen sensor HIF-1 a genetically removed from their skin failed to produce this hormone (荷尔蒙) even after hours of such low oxygen.These findings, if they hold true in humans, suggest one could raise the level of oxygen circulating inside the body. This could help treat lung diseases and disorders such as anemia (贫血症) without injecting drugs, which make up a multibillion-dollar market, Johnson said.Athletes also often try to get more oxygen delivered to their muscles in order to improve their performance. They often do this by training at high altitudes or in low-oxygen tents. The new study suggests they might want to expose their skin as well as breathing in low-oxygen air to improve their performance. “It’s hard to say what exactly might be done, however—there’s a lot we don’t know yet,” Johnson explained. The scientists detailed their findings in the April 18 issue of the journal Cell.64. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Johnson believes that oxygen sensors also exist in human skin.B. People have to surf the Internet to read detailed findings.C. It has been proved that these findings help treat lung diseasesD. It has long been expected oxygen sensors exist in mice’s skin.65. One of the functions of the molecules mentioned above is _______.A. carrying oxygen around the bodyB.improving athletes’ performanceC. detectingoxygenD. increasing level of oxygen66. What is Johnson’s attitude to the application of the findings to the athletes’ training?A. NegativeB. DoubtingC.Positive D. Hesitating67. The best title of the passage may be _______.A. Great Findings Benefit Athletes A LotB. Frogs And Mice Are Distant RelativesC. First Known Animal Breathes Through SkinD. Humans Might Sense Oxygen Through Skin完形填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分）A farmer had some puppies (小狗) he needed to sell.

People still move for these reasons, but new reasons for human migration are arising, such as job relocation(重新安置) and overpopulation. Three million migrants are moving from poor countries to wealthier ones each year, and increasingly, their destination is a neighboring country in developing parts of the world. People are moving within the developing world for the same reasons as they migrate to wealthier nations. People from poor countries are going to less poor countries, fleeing wars and conflicts. They are also responding to population pressures because some countries are densely populated, and they often have high population growth. Those people need to go somewhere else.There are three main reasons why people move. The basic categories and percentages are as follows, according to the Current Population Surveys (CPS):Family-related reasons account for 26.3%, including changes in marital （婚姻的） status, establishing a household and other family reasons; work-related reasons 16.2%, including job transfer, retirement, and other job-related reasons; housing-related reasons 51.6%, including new and better houses, better neighborhood, cheaper housing and other housing reasons; the remaining 5.9% of other reasons are attending college, the change of climate and health reasons.Americans have been migrating south and west for decades in search of better job opportunities and warmer climates. They have also been moving to places a little far from cities, in search of bigger yards and houses, lower crime rates and better schools. In 1950, nearly a fifth of the population lived in the nation’s 20 largest cities. In 2006, it was about one in ten. That’s why many American people say, “Big Cities Shrink as People Move South, West.”Between March 2005 and March 2007, 73.4 million Americans moved. Fifty-six percent of these moves were within the same country. Twenty percent were between counties but in the same state. Nineteen percent were moves to a different state. Some families even went abroad. Title: People on the 71参考答案阅读理解64----67 ACCD完形填空36－40 CBADB; 41－45 ABCCC; 46－50 DBADA; 51-55 DDAAB任务型阅读：71. move, 72. history, 73. increasing, 74.richer/wealthier, 75.

2012高考英语二轮复习专题限时训练专题2 阅读理解35（25分钟）AThis is an open letter to the three people who stole my handbag from the department store I am employed as a shop assistant.When you took my bag, I don’t know what you thought you were going to get. With my wages, there's not much left on a Tuesday. I hope the ￡5 was useful to you . I have informed the social security office so you won’t be able to cash the child benefit next week. I hope that won't leave you too short. But if you really need a couple of pounds, I suppose you could always cash one of the two checks left in my check book. Of course, I phoned the bank right away and the check-casing card is no longer valid, so it won’t be much use to you.Actually I don’t mind about the money too much. We single parents who work to support our families understand only too well what it means to be short of cash. However, I don’t suppose it went very far among the three of you. Sorry about that!I wish you had left the bag behind and just taken the wallet and check book. There were all kinds of papers in it, and notes and things that I really need. I really think that was very inconsiderate of you. I mean, how would you like something like that to happen to you?Well, perhaps the bag will turn up. It wasn’t even an expens ive one, just a plain, old brown leather shoulder bag. You probably dumped it in the nearest rubbish bin or threw it into the bushes. We've looked around, of course, but no one saw which way you went after you left the shop.I'm not really angry with you. I know how the pressures of modern living can affect us, but I am sad at the loss of my personal things. I feel violated and helpless. The police were very icy, and they just shrugged their shoulders. “It happens all the time,” the y told me. Some small comfort, I suppose. But I’ve lost just a little more faith in human nature．And as my young son said when I told him what hadhappened, “Why? Mummy, why us?” I couldn't answer that question. I wonder if you can.1. In writing Paragraph 2, the writer wants to .A. describe the contents of the bag in detail.B. give some suggestions to the three thievesC. state the fact that she was careless with the moneyD. tell the thieves hardly any money was available2. Which of the following is the most valuable to the writer?A. The cash in her bag.B. The handbag itself.C. The papers and notes in the bag.D. The check books in the bag.3. What can we conclude about the police?A. They think the case quite common.B. They show sympathy for thewoman.C. They have doubts about human nature.D. They are unable to find thethieves.4. Why does the author write the letter?A. To give the thieves a serious warning.B. To express her affection for her valuable bag.C. To call people’s attention to their belongings.D. To complain about the fall of morality.BJob sharing refers to the situation in which two people divide the responsibility of one full-time job. The two people willingly act as part-time workers, enough hours between them to fulfillthe duties of a full-time worker. If they each work half the job, for example, they each receive 50per cent of the job’s wages, its holidays and its other benefits.Job sharing differs from conventional part-time work in that it occurs mainly in the more highly skilled and professional areas, which require higher levels ofresponsibility and employee commitment.Job sharing should not be confused with the term work sharing, which refers to increasing the number of jobs by reducing the number of hours of each existing job, thus offering more positions to the growing number of unemployed people. Job sharing, by contrast, is not designed to address unemployment problems; its focus, rather, is to provide well-paid work for skilled workers and professionals who want more free time for other activities.As would be expected, most job sharers are women. A survey carried out in 1988 by Britain’s Equal Opportunities Commission showed that 78 per cent of sharers were female, the majority of whom were between 20 and 40 years of age. Subsequent studies have come up with similar results. Many of these women were re-entering the job market after having had children, but they chose not to seek part-time work because it would have meant lower status. Job sharing also offered an acceptable shift back into full-time work after a long absence.The necessity of close cooperation when sharing a job with another person makes the actual work quite different from conventional one-position jobs. However, to ensure a greater chance that the partnership will succeed, each person needs to know the strengths, weaknesses and preferences of his or her partner before applying for a position. Moreover, there must be a fair division of both routine tasks and interesting ones. In sum, for a position to be job-shared well, the two individuals must be well matched and must treat each other as equals.1. In what way is work sharing different from job sharing?A. Work sharing is aimed at creating more jobs.B. Work sharing requires more working hours.C. Work sharing provides a more satisfactory salary.D. Work sharing depends on the employer’s decision.2. According to Paragraph 4, young mothers preferred job sharing to conventional part-time workmainly because _________.A. they were over ideal working agesB. they sought higher social statusC. they had difficulty finding full-time jobsD. they had to take care of both work and family3. In job sharing the partners should __________.A. enjoy equal social statusB. have similar work experienceC. know each other very wellD. keep in touch with each other4. The main purpose of the passage is to ___________.A. discuss how to provide more jobsB. describe job sharing in generalC. recommend job sharing to womenD. compare job sharing with work sharingCThe Child Ego StateThe Child ego state is a set of behaviors, thoughts and feelings which are replayed from our own childhood.Perhaps the boss calls us into his or her office, we may immediately get a churning in our stomach and wonder what we have done wrong. If this were explored we might remember the time the head teacher called us in to tell us off. Of course, not everything in the C hild ego state is negative. We might go into someone’s house and smell a lovely smell and remember our grandmother’s house when we were little, and all the same warm feelings we had at six years of age may come flooding back.The Child ego states are constantly being updated. For example, we may meet someone who gives us the permission we needed as a child, and did not get, to be fun and joyous. We may well use that person in our imagination when we are stressed to resist our old ways of thinking that we must work longer and longer hours to keep up with everything. We might ask oursel ves “I wonder what X would say now.” Then on hearing the new permissions to relax and take some time out, do just that and then return to the work renewed and ready for the challenge. Afterwards, rather than blaming ourselves for what we did or did not do, what tends to happen is that we automatically start to give ourselves new permissions and take care of ourselves.Alternatively, we might have had an extremely unpleasant experience yesterday which goes into the Child ego state as an antique memory that stands in the way of our growth. Positive experiences will also go into the Child ego state as antique memories. The positive experiences can then be drawn on to remind us that positive things do happen.The process of analyzing personality in terms of ego states is called structural analysis. It is important to remember that ego states do not have an existence of their own. T hey are concepts to enable understanding. Therefore it is important to say “I want some fun” rather than “My Child wants some fun.” W e may be in our Child ego state when we say this, but saying “I” reminds us to take responsibility for our actions.1. The writer uses two examples in Paragraph 2 in order to _____.A. support the idea in Paragraph 1B. explain why we become nervousC. prove the Child ego state is negativeD. introduce the point of Paragraph 32. By asking “I wonder what X would say now”, we intend to __________.A. blame ourselvesB. accept challengesC. keep up with everythingD. avoid stress3. According to the passage, the Child ego state __________.A. shows one’s wisdomB. influences one’s actionsC. limits one’s thoughtsD. exists in one’s childhood4. The underlined word “this” in the last paragraph refers to __________.A. structural analysisB. “My Child wants some fun”C. the Child ego stateD. “I want some fun”DCAD ABCB ADBD。

2012高考英语二轮复习专题限时训练专题2 阅读理解40（45分钟）ATess went to her bed room and pulled a glass jelly jar from its hiding place in the closet. She poured all the change out on the floor and counted it carefully. Three times, even. The total had to be absolutely exact. Then carefully placing the coins back in the jar and twisting on the cap, she slipped out the back door and made her way six blocks to the pharmacy（药房）.She waited patiently for the pharmacist to give her some attention but he was too busy at this moment. So she took a quarter from her jar and banged it on the glass counter. That did it!“And what do you want?” the pharmacist asked in an annoyed tone of voice. “I’m talking to my brother from Chicago whom I haven’t seen in ages,” he said without waiting for a reply to his question.“Well, I want to talk to you about my brother,” Tess answered back in the same annoyed tone. “He’s really, really sick… and I want to buy a miracle.”“I beg your pardon?” said the pharmacist.“His name is Andrew and he has something bad growing inside his head and my Daddy says only a miracle can save him now. So how much does a miracle cost?”The pharmacist’s brother was a well dressed man. He bent down and asked the little girl, “What kind of a miracle does your brother need?”“I don’t know,” Tess replied with her eyes welling up. “I just know he’s really sick and Mommy says he needs an operation. But my Daddy can’t pay for it, so I want to use my money.”“How much do you have?” asked the man from Chicago.“One dollar and eleven cents,” Tess answered. “And it’s all the money I have.”“Well, what a coincidence. A dollar and eleven cents—the exact price of a miracle for little brother,” smiled the man.“Take me to where you live. I want to see your brother and meet your parents. Let’s see if I have the kind of miracle you need.”The pharmacist’s brother, Dr. Carlton Armstrong, a surgeon, was expert in neurosurgery(神经外科). The operation was completed without charge and it wasn’t long before Andrew was home again and doing well.Mom and Dad were happily talking about the chain of events that had led them to this place. “That surgery,” her Mo m whispered. “was a real miracle. I wonder how much it would have cost?”Tess smiled. S he knew exactly how much a miracle cost…one dollar and eleven cents…plus the faith of a little child.1.

Psychologists at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand are studying the “shop-till-you-drop” habit as a behavioral disorder similar to compulsive eating. Compulsive shoppers frequently buy more than they can afford or more than they need, and it causes them distress.“It becomes a problem when you are out of control,” psychology lecturer Neville Blampiedsaid. “When you are feeling bad and blue, what do you do? Some pe ople eat chocolate cake and ice cream. Some people take the credit card and go out to the shop.” Bank managers understand the problem because they have to deal with people who have to be persuaded to stop using their cards drawing money.Compulsive shopping was first discovered in 1915, although it was then known as oniomania. Few studies have been done on the problem.An advertisement in a Christchurch paper, calling for people to take part in an experimental treatment program designed by Mr Wilson, attracted 10 replies. But the problem, said Mr Wilson, is “clearly not rare”. He thinks that compulsive shopping should not be treated with drugs. “As psychologists we are interested in non-drug treatments for behavioral difficulties,” Mr Wilson said.Compulsive eaters or shoppers get a kick from their habit. “Both activities provide an immediate kind of kick and you feel a bit better,” he said. “You have long-term problems, but human beings are extremely good at not seeing long-term problems and are very sensitive to short-term benefits,” he said.The aim of the treatment was to help people find better ways of managing their emotions. The program, consisting of 10 one-hour weekly lessons and two follow-up treatments, is loosely based on teaching stress management.“You often have to start to get people to correctly recognize their emotions. Not being able to know what you really feel weakens your ability to solve the problems connected with what’s making you feel that way,” Mr Wilson said.8. What is this article mostly about?A. Signs of compulsive shopping.B. Studies of compulsive shopping.C. comparison of compulsive shopping and compulsive eating.D. An experimental treatment program designed by Mr Wilson.9. The underlined word“it”in the first pa ragraph most probably refers to .A. a new psychological excuseB. compulsive eatingC. the study done by BlampiedD. the behavior of wild shopping10. Which of the following is considered important in treating compulsive shoppers?A. Teaching them to manage their money better.B. Teaching them to understand their emotions.C. Persuading them not to draw money from the bank.D. Treating them with right drugs.11. When the writer says that compulsive shoppers get a kick from their habit, he means thatthey .A. feel distressed after their wild shoppingB. feel better after treatment from psychologistsC. are better able to deal with stress problemsD. have a feeling of excitement after shoppingDAmerica has always had people of many different nationalities and languages. The 1990 census (人口普查) indicates that almost 14% of Americans speak a non-English language at home. Yet only 3% reported that they spoke English “not well” or “not at all ”. That means that slightly more than one out of 10 Americans could be considered bilingual. Besides that, many high school and college students—and even some elementary school students—are required to take a foreign language. Actually, a growing number of Americans are coming to appreciate the benefits of using different languages.Ethnic enclaves(少数民族聚居地) have preserved the language and culture of American immigrants. Some local residents can function quite well in their native language, without having to bother learning English. Regions such as southern Florida and the Southwest have numerous Spanish-speaking neighborhoods. In fact, Spanish speakers—numbering over 17 million—form the largest non-English linguistic group in America. But Chinese, Vietnamese, Italian, Polish and many other ethnic group add to the linguistic flavor of America. Foreign languages are so commonly used in some ethnic neighborhoods that visitors might think they are in another country!Although some Americans welcome this linguistic and cultural diversity, others have begun to fear that the English language is being threatened. Since the 1980s, the “English Only” movement has sought to promote legislation（立法）which would establish Engli sh as the “official language” and restrict the use of non-English language. However, some groups, including TESOL,the organization for Teachers of English to Speakers of Other Language, object to such “language restrictionism”. But so far, 19 states have passed “English Only” legislation, and the topic is the focus of an ongoing debate.Whether or not English is the official language of the United States, it remains the “language of wider communication”. Nearly everyone recognizes the need to develop the ability in using English in order to do well in America. Americans also recognize that English is the international language, and people with good English skills can get by in many international settings. On the other hand, in a world growing increasingly smaller, second language skills can be a great favor. They can build cross-cultural bridges and give people an edge in a variety of career field. Indeed, lack of foreign language skill can limit one’s chances for advancement and keep one in a cultural dead-end street.12. Ethnic groups have preserved their native languages because .A. their native languages are commonly used in their neighborhoodsB. ethnic groups are not allowed to speak EnglishC. ethnic groups can do very well in their native languagesD. ethnic groups don’t allow their natives to learn English13. The u nderlined word “bilingual” in paragraph 1 probably means.A. being able to speak two languagesB. being able to speak one languageC. being able to speak different languagesD. being able to speak many foreign languages14. Which of the following is TRUE about “English Only” movement?A. Its purpose was to establish a legislation of restricting the use of English.B. TESOL was in favor of “English Only” by objecting to “English plus”.C. It was launched because English was being threatened.D. A large majority of states supported the movemen t.15. What can be the best title of this passage?A. The English Only MovementB. Learn to speak EnglishC. English—an International LanguageD. Being BilingualEA villa (别墅) designed to resist earthquakes with “self-healing” cracks in its walls, thanks t o nanotechnology (纳米技术) applications with self-healing polymers (聚合物), is to be built on a Greek mountainside. The villa’s walls will include special particles that turn into a liquid when squeezed under pressure, flow into cracks, and then harden to form a solid material.The NanoManufacturing Institute (NMI), based in Leeds University, will play a key role in an EU project to construct the home by December 2010. The project, called “Intelligent Safe and Secure Buildings” (ISSB) is funded under the EU’s S ixth Framework program. This potentially life-saving scheme is led by German building manufacturer Knauf. The villa will be built in Amphilochia, in western Greece, where Knauf currently runs a manufacturing plant. If the experiment is successful, more tremor-resistant（防震）homes could be built in earthquake zones across the globe. NMI chief executive Professor Terry Wilkins said, “What we’re trying to achieve here is very exciting. We’re looking to use polymers in much tougher situations than ever before on a larger scale.” Monitors contained in the villa’s walls will be able to collect vast amounts of data about the building over time. Wireless sensors will record any stresses and vibrations, as well as temperature, humidity and gas levels.The walls are to be built from new load-bearing steel frames and high-strength gypsum（石膏）board. Prof Wilkins said, “If there are any problems, the intelligent sensor network will be able to alert residents immediately so they have time to escape.” If whole groups of houses are so constructed, we could use a larger network of sensors to get even more information. “If the house falls down, we have got hand-held devices that can be used over the rubble to pick out where the embedded（嵌入的）sensors are hidden to get some information about how the villa collapsed.” Also, we can get information abou t anyone who may be around, so it potentially becomes a tool for rescue.16. The aim of the passage is to .A. report a piece of interesting newsB. promote tremor-resistant homesC. inform us of the nanotechnology developmentD. tell us about a tremor-resistant home17. The villa can resist earthquakes because .A. it will be built on a special placeB. the cracks in its walls can be healed by the polymersC. the special particles can make its walls strongerD. the intelligent sensor network can tell people where there is a crack18. If the tremor-resistant home falls down, .A. rescue work can be done more quickly and accuratelyB. the intelligent sensor network will stop workingC. no one can be hurt in the earthquakeD. a warning signal will be given to other residents19. What Prof Wilkins said suggests that .A. he is doubtful about the projectB. he thinks the tremor-resistant home is perfectly designedC. he is confident in the tremor-resistant homeD. the tremor-resistant home still needs to be tested in a real situation20. It can be inferred from the passage that tremor-resistant home .A. is still being tried outB. is already under constructionC. has been in wide useD. will be put into wide use soonBCAC DDC BDBD AACD DBACA。

专题限时训练(三十)[社会生活型阅读理解(二)](限时：25分钟)(一)Someday a stranger will read your e-mail without your permission or scan the websites you’ve visited.Or perhaps someone will casually glance through your credit card purchases or cell phone bills to find out your shopping preferences or calling habits.In fact，it’s likely some of these things have already happened to you.Who would watch you without your permission? It might be a girlfriend，a marketing company, a boss，a policeman or a criminal.Whoever it is，they will see you in a way you never intended to be seen—the 21st century equal to being caught naked(裸露的)．Psychologists tell us boundaries are healthy, though it’s important to reveal(透露)yourself to friends，family and lovers in stages，at appropriate times.Actually few boundaries remain.The digital breadcrumbs(面包屑)you leave everywhere make it easy for strangers to reconstruct who you are，where you are and what you like.In some cases，a simple Google search can reveal what you think.Like it or not，increasinglywe_live_in_a_world_where_you_simply_cannot_keep_a_secret. The key question is：Does that matter? For many Americans, the answer apparently is “no”．When opinion polls ask Americans about privacy, most say they are concerned about losing it.A survey found a majority of people are pessimistic about privacy, with 60 percent of respondents saying they feel their privacy is slipping away, and that bothers them.()2.What would psychologists advise on the relationships between friends?A．There should be a distance even between friends.B．There should be fewer quarrels between friends.C．Friends should always be faithful to each other.D．Friends should open their hearts to each other.()3.Why does the author say“we live in a world where you simply cannot keep a secret”？A．There are always people who are curious about others’ affairs.B．Many search engines profit by revealing people’s identities.C．People leave traces around when using modern technology.D．Modern society has finally developed into an open society.()4.What do most Americans do with regard to privacy protection?A．They change behaviors that might disclose their identity.B．They talk a lot but hardly do anything about it.C．They rely more and more on electronic equipment.D．They use various loyalty cards for business deals.()5.According to the passage，privacy is like health in that ________.A．its importance is rarely understoodB．it is something that can easily be lostC．people will make every effort to keep itD．people don’t treasure it until they lose it(二)Since we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships.One strength of the human condition is our tendency to give and receive support from one another under stressful circumstances.Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties.Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to cope with major life changes and daily hassles(困难)．People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties.Studies over a range of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, reveal that the presence of social support helps people fend off(挡开) illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways.First, friends, relatives, and co-workers may let us know that they value us.Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by other despite our faults and difficulties.Second, other people often provide us with informational support.They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive.Engaging in leisure-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting(转移……注意力) us from our worries and troubles.Finally, other people may give us instructive support—financial aid, material resources, and needed services—that reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope with our problems.()1.Interpersonal relationships are important because ________.A．they are indispensable(不可缺少的) to people’s social well-being B．they awaken people’s desire to exchange resourcesC．they help people to cope with life in the information ageD．they can cure a range of illnesses such as heart disease, etc.()2.Research shows that people’s physical and mental health________.A．relies on the social welfare system which support themB．has much to so with the amount of support they get from others C．depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troubles D．is closely related to their strength for coping with major changes in their lives()3.Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “cushions”(Line 1，para.2) ?A．Adds up to.B．Does away with.C．Lessens the effect of.D．Lays the foundation of.()4.Helping a sick neighbor with some repair work is an example of________.A．informational supportB．instructive supportC．social companionshipD．the strengthening of self-respect()5.Social companionship is beneficial in that ________.A．it helps strengthen our ties with relativesB．it enables us to eliminate our faults and mistakesC．it makes our leisure-time activities more enjoyableD．it draws our attention away from our worries and troubles(三)Some years ago industries had more freedom than they have now，and they did not need to be as careful as they must today.They did not need to worry a lot about the safety of the new products that they developed.They did not have to pay much attention to the health and safety of the people who worked for them.Often new products were dangerous for the people who used them；often conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers.Of course sometimes there were real disasters(灾难) which attracted the attention of governments and which showed the need for changes.Also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore.At such times, there were inquiries into the causes of the disasters or the problems.New safety rules were often introduced as a result of these inquiries；however, the new rules came too late to protect the people who died or who became seriously ill.Today many governments have special departments which protect customers and workers.In the U．S., for example, there is a department which tests new airplanes and gives warnings about possible problems.It also makes the rules that aircraft producers must follow.Another department controls the foods and drugs that companies sell.A third department looks at the places where people work，and then reports any companies that are breaking the laws which protect the health and safetyof workers.Of course，new government departments and new laws cannot prevent every accident or illness，but they are having some good results.Our work places are safer and cleaner than before.The planes and cars which we use for travel are better.Producers are thinking more about the safety and health of the people who buy and use their products.()1.The main topic of the passage is________.A．conditions in the work placeB．the freedom of industries in the pastC．changes in industrial productionD．the safety and health of workers and customers()2.It can be inferred from the passage that in the past________.A．workers often got ill because of the poor working conditionsB．companies were free to put out any products they wanted toC．many people were killed by dangerous productsD．industries were as careful in management as they are today()3.It is implied in the passage that________.A．governments and companies had different opinions about the safety of productsB．governments paid little attention to the safety of productsC．government officials often did not listen to scientistsD．in the past no safety laws were introduced by governments()4.Some years ago safety rules________.A．were put forward due to scientists’ recommendationsB．came into being as a result of the work ers’ demandsC．were introduced because quite a number of people were killed or seriously injuredD．were effective enough to protect workers and customers()5.The special departments protect customers and workers in many ways EXCEPT by________.A．testing new productsB．controlling the sale of productsC．designing new productsD．inspecting work places专题限时训练(三十)(一)1.D推理判断题。

专题2 阅读理解34
2012高考英语二轮复习专题限时训练专题2 阅读理解34（25分钟）AThere is, for many of us, a moment in life when we make a choice that changes us forever. This moment marks a turning point, when we realize that the life we're living is not a mirror of who we really are.For some, the moment comes as a result of something dramatic: the sudden loss of a job, or the death of a loved one. For others, they have to deal with difficult situations, such as financial hardship. In these challenging times, it's more critical(关键时刻的) than ever for us to seize the possibility of positive change. As I travel and talk to people about their lives, I often see a distant, vacant look in their eyes -- a look that says “I’m so busy trying to survive my life that no soul left to live it”.As a result, we end up feeling lonely. Yet we keep on going the way we've been going. We tolerate high levels of stress at work, take important relationships for granted, or put our health needs on hold. We get so caught up in the details of living that our busyness becomes an excuse from the inner voice that begs us to listen. When you finally pay attention to that little voice and begin to make even small changes, you will slowly improve yourself.To start positive change, you need the power of your mind. I've come up with a five-step strategy that will help you. You will be able to identify what you want and then go after it. It's easier than you might think.1. Reset your happiness set point. Don't limit yourself! When I decided that I wanted more control over my life, I set goals in physical, emotional, financial, professional, material, and play. I challenged myself to consider every possible choice. Imagine things you've never believed you could achieve. Don't let your past determine your future.2. Trust your courage. Too often, when you're first learning to take control of your life, you doubt yourself. It's important to develop a strong connection with your innerguidance system. I've heard many stories about the persistent voice inside your head.3. Take action. Once you have set goals, adjusted your beliefs, and got ready, you can start making things happen. Again, turn to those people you respect -- the ones achieving what you desire -- for support and guidance. They will both inspire you and give you practical advice on what steps you need to take.4. Have faith. Believe that the positive energy of grace will support your efforts to improve your life. When you've done all you can, let go and trust that the right result will occur. When we have faith, we give up the need to be in control, and we set ourselves up to actually enjoy the process of change.5. Be patient. This can be the toughest step. It's not easy to trust that your life will improve in a best way. Remind yourself of the benefits of patience. In my experience, those life changes are always worth the wait.1. What does the author intend to say in the second paragraph?A. The start of some turning points in one’s life is caused by crisis.B. Loss of a job or the death of a loved one are all dramatic things.C. No one can live a life without any turning points.D. No one can predict his future of being good or not.2. In the author’s opinion, we should ______________.A. adjust our beliefs from time to timeB. always control ourselves for anythingC. keep on going the way we are goingD. seize the challenging times to live an active life3. The author suggests that when setting your happiness set points, you should _______.A. know the limitation of your set pointB. build self-confidence without doubtC. limit your goals in different waysD. consider every possible choice with care4. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. When you've done all you can, you may believe that the right result will occur.B. When you set goals, and take action, it is possible to make things happen.C. When you first learn to take charge of your life, you will always doubt yourself.D. If things do not happen in a way that is best, patience is always worth the wait.ADBCB“To be or not to be”．Outside the Bible, these six words are the most famous in all the literature of the world．They were spoken by Hamlet when he was thinking aloud, and they are the most famous words in Shakespeare because Hamlet was speaking not only for himself but for every thinking man and woman．To be or not to be----to live or not to live, to live richly and abundantly and eagerly, or to live dully and meanly and scarcely．A philosopher once wanted to know whether he was alive or not, which is a good question for everyone to put to himself occasionally．He answered it by saying, “I think, therefore I am．”But the best definition of existence I ever saw was one written by another philosopher who said, “To be is to be in relations．”If this is true, then the more relations a living thing has, the more it is alive．To live abundantly means simply to increase the range and intensity （强度）of our relations．Unfortunately, we are so constituted that we get to love our routine．But other than our regular occupation, how much are we alive? If you are interested only in your regular occupation, you are alive only to that extent．So far as other things are concerned----poetry and prose, music, pictures, sports unselfish friendships, politics, international affairs----you are dead．On the contrary, it is true that every time you acquire a new interest----even more, a new accomplishment----you increase your power of life．No one who is deeply interested in different kinds of subjects can remain unhappy．The real pessimist is the person who has lost interest．Bacon said that a man dies as often as he loses a friend．But we gain new life by contacts with new friends, and new ideas and thoughts, too．Where your thoughtsare, there will be your life also．If your thoughts are limited only to your business, only to your physical welfare, only to your narrow circle of the town in which you live, then you live in a narrow restricted life．But if you are interested in the characters of a good novel, then you are living with those highly interested people; if you listen intently to fine music, you are always away from immediate surroundings and living in a world of passion and imagination．To be or not to be ---- to live intensely and richly, or merely to exist, that depends on ourselves．Let us widen and intensify our relations．While we live, let us live．1．What does the author mainly want to do by this passage?A．Argue against an idea．B．Put forward an idea．C．Introduce some famous sayings．D．Explain some famous sayings．2．What does the underlined word “pessimist” most probably mean?A．Somebody who always expects the worst to happen．B．Somebody who is always interested in making new friends．C．Somebody who always lives in a world of passion and imagination．D．Somebody who likes to live a rich and abundant life．3．Which of the following behaviors is most probably NOT encouraged by the author?A．Thinking more than your own business．B．Caring only about your physical welfare．C．Reading good novels．D．Listening to fine music．4．What is the main idea of the passage?A．To be or not to be, that is a question．B．I think, therefore I am．C．To be is to be in relations．D．A man dies as often as he loses a friend．BABCCThe diversity of the original American Indian settlers was not quite as great as that of the 18th, 19th and early 20th centuries when waves of European, Asian and unwilling African immigrants arrived on American shores. However, the First Americans did have more far-going origins that were ever suspected. For example, Brace’s studies ha ve revealed that the Blackfoot, Iroquois, and other tribes from Minnesota, Michigan, Ontario, and Massachusetts came down from the Jomon, a prehistoric people of Japan. The Inuit in the far north and tribal groups who once lived down the Eastern seaboard into Florida appear to be a later branch from the trunk of the Jomon family tree. The Athabaskan-speaking people from the Yukon and northern-western Canada, who spread as far south as Arizona and northern Mexico, appear to trace their origins to China. “The ir facial shapes link them more closely to the living Chinese than to any other population in either part of the world,”says Brace.Johanna Nichols, a Professor of Slavic languages and literature at the University of California at Berkeley, says that new evidence from native languages throughout the New World strongly suggests that humans have been in the Americas since as early as 40,000 BC. She says that it is only along the west coast that languages appear to have come from immigrants who arrived after the ice age, 14,000 years ago.Nichols also has some different ideas about the direction in which the country was settled. Breaking with the traditional view of migrations, she says that the inside of North America was colonized not only from Siberia but also from the south.To bolster her argument for an early settlement date, Nichols points to findings from the Monte Verde site in southern Chile. It has been dated at 12,500 years old, which means the area was occupied during the last ice age. And, the Monte Verde people would have needed at least 6,500 years to travel from Alaska to Chile. Yet, that only takes us back to about 19,000 years ago. Her research suggests a very high degree of language diversity is something that happens only with time. She insists that the approximately 150 distinct native American language families we know oftoday must have required at least 35,000 years to develop.1. In the first paragraph the writer uses the word “unwilling” to show that _______.A. the Africans came against the will of most AmericansB. the Africans came without the approval of their parentsC. the Africans were taken here against their own willD. the Europeans who came at the time didn’t want the Africans to cometogether2. Which of the following statements is TRUE about the Athabaskan-speakingpeople?A. They were related to people living in Japan in prehistoric times.B. They were a branch from the trunk of the Jomon family tree.C. They have no links to any other people.D. They were thought to have certain links to the ancestors of the Chinesepeople.3. The underlined word bolster in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to _______.A. useB. haveC. supportD. build4. From the passage we can know _______.A. people in the Americas today are believed to have probably come down onlyfrom the northB. Nichols strongly suggests that humans have lived in the Americas for about6,500 yearsC. Nichols supports the traditional ideas about the direction in which the countrywas settledD. it surely takes a very long time for language diversity to come aboutCDCD。

D pleasure是不可数名词，意为“快乐、高兴”。
与不定冠词a连用表示一件令人愉快、高兴的事。
2. C make sense意为“有意义、讲得通、有道理”。
3. C 联系后面的because of the global economic crisis，我们知道这里是讲新毕业大学生不能就业的情况。
4. B This is my treat.＝ My treat.这次我请客。
这是英语中特有的表达方式。
5. D sense of time时间观念/ 意识。
类似结构还有：sense of direction方向感；sense of duty责任感；sense of taste味觉；sense of smell嗅觉。
6. D 句意：我们应该保证的是只要采取适当的措施就可以攻克来自甲流的威胁。
risk 冒险；adventure探险；shortcoming缺点；threat威胁。
7. A 表示找工作时的“有利条件”。
8. D 根据对话可知，孩子提醒妈妈许下的诺言(promise)，暑假带他去青岛。
9. B have a word with sb.是固定短语“和某人谈话”，符合题意。
10. D it’s a deal固定搭配，“一言为定”，口语中常用。
11. C point“点，标点，小数点”；track“行踪，小径”；spot“污点，地点”；trace “足迹，踪迹”。
12. B purpose“目的”；attempt“尝试”；desire “渴望”；intention “意图”，根据句意，应选B。

或者说，cause多指引起某事发生的客观因素，而reason用来解释某事为什么会发生，如the reason for your absence，the cause of your disease。
19. A 句意：由于政府继续推行不得人心的政策，所以其形象很差。
四个名词选项的主要含义： image形象，声誉，印象；appearance 外表，外貌；figure 数字，轮廓，身材；statue 塑像，雕像。
从语境看，没有人喜欢的计划还要继续推行，显然这样的政府的“声誉、形象”很糟糕了。
20. B 句意：如今的高中学生肩负着他人寄托的太多期待，这使他们越来越不自信。
四个选项的含义各不相同，motivation动机，目的；expectation期待，预期；amusement 娱乐；opportunity机会，时机。
语境提到他们“负担着”，那么不是负担着“动机”、“娱乐”或“机会”，而是肩负别人对他们的“期待”，因此选B。
