一轮复习高考英语专题复习阅读理解(附答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解Eating red meat is linked to cancer and heart disease, but are the risks big enough to justify giving up juicy burgers and delicious steaks? Probably not, according to researchers who reviewed data from 12 clinical trials involving about 54,000 people. In a series of controversial papers, the researchers argue that the increased health risks tied to red meat are small and uncertain, and that cutting back likely wouldn't be worth it for people who enjoy meat.Those conclusions go against established medical advice. They were swiftly attacked by a group of famous U.S. scientists who took the unusual step of trying to stop the papers from being published until their criticisms were addressed.The new work does not say red or processed meats like hot dogs and bacon are healthy, or that people should eat more of them. The team's reviews of past studies generally support the ties to cancer, heart disease and other bad health outcomes. But the authors say the evidence is weak, and that there's not much certainty meat is really the cause, since other diet and lifestyle factors could be at play.If the latest example of how divisive nutrition research has become, with its uncertainties leaving the door open for conflicting advice. Critics say findings often aren't backed by strong evidence. Defenders counter that nutrition studies can rarely be conclusive because of the difficulty of measuring the effects of any single food, but that methods have improved.Based on their analyses, the researchers said people do not have to cut back for health reasons. But they noted that their own advice is weak, and acknowledged that they didn't consider factors such as animal welfare and the environment. Indeed, the case that meat production is bad for animal welfare and the environment is stronger than the case that it's bad for human health, according to an editorial that accompanies the report.Not all of the report authors agreed with its conclusions. Three of the 14 researchers said they support reducing red and processed meats. A coauthor of one of the reviews is also among those who called for a publication delay.Those who pushed to postpone publication also questioned why certain studies were included in the reviews while others were left out.As for his own diet, Dr. Gordon Guyatt, a member of the international research team that conducted the reviews, said he no longer thinks red or processed meats have significant health risks. But he said he still avoids them out of habit, and for animal welfare and environmental reasons.(1)What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?A.To introduce a new relationship between health and eating red meat.B.To urge more people to keep away from eating red meat regularly.C.To present a new controversial view on impacts of eating red meat.D.To criticize nutrition studies for lacking of conclusive evidence.(2)What is the author's attitude towards the new research?A.Doubtful.B.Positive.C.Disapproving.D.Objective.(3)Guyatt's avoiding red meats has the weakest connection with_______.A.health risksB.diet habitsC.animal welfareD.environmental protection(4)What can we learn from the recent research?A.Red meats don't have significant health risks.B.Reducing meat consumption will be worth it.C.The report authors have reached a consensus.D.Consuming red meat will do good to health.【答案】(1)C(2)D(3)A(4)A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文,作者对于吃红肉是否与癌症和心脏病有关引用了研究发现、结果、例子等客观数据和事实来写这篇文章。

Language is a major problem for the European Union (EU). The agreement or treaty which created the organization that eventually became the EU,the Treaty of Rome,stated that each country' s language must be treated equally.The original six countries had only three languages between them:French, German andDutch/Flemish.However,there are now 15 countries in the EU,with a total of 12 languages.EU documents must be translated into all these languages,and at official meetings the speeches must be translated into all the languages by interpreters.All this translating is very expensive and time consuming(费时的).It is said that nearly half of all employees of the EU are engaged in translating documents and speeches,and nearly half of the EU's administrative(管理方面的)costs are spent on this task.In the near future it is probably that several more countries,most of them having their own languages,will join the EU,thus making the situation even worse.The problem is not just cost:there are practical difficulties as well.With 12 languages,there are 132 possible “translation situations” that might be needed.It is often difficult to find people in the right place at the right time who can translate from (for example) Danish into Greek,or Dutch into Portuguese,at a high professional standard.In practice the problem has been made less severe by the use of English in many contacts between EU officials,since almost all of them speak some English.However,any move to reduce the number of official languages(perhaps to four or five)would be a blow to the price of the smaller countries.Another commonly suggested solution is to make English the official language for all EU business.However,this is strongly resisted by powerful member countries like France and Germany.1.What's the main purpose of this passage?A. To give a solution to a problem.B.To find out a problem and show how severe it is.C.To criticize the European Union for ill efficiency.D.To show that the problem cannot be solved.答案:B 推理判断题。

A Throughout my childhood,I constantly dreamed of being an only child— having no one around to fight with,to share with,to grab the remote control away from me in the middle of a “big game”. But I have an elder sister,whom I have always called “Kicki,” instead of her real name Christie,because I used to have trouble pronouncing the “r” and “s”. I started playing basketball in primary school.My dad was the coach of my team,and my mom kept scoring.So my sister,not old enough to stay home alone,was forced to come to all my games.I remember looking toward the stands for my mother’s approval and seeing my sister’s face,confused.It was obvious that she wasn’t excited,but she cheered along with the crowd anyway.

The good news is that something as simple as a 10-minute break,if used correctly,can help reduce the effects of digital intensity.“If you give yourself a break,and do something like mediation,reading,drawing—anything that turns your brain to something more relaxing,” says Dr Michael Bohan,the director of Microsoft’s Human Factors Engineering Lab,“the brain will begin to produce alpha waves.” After the break,“you’ll be more engaged and focused,”he adds.“Taking breaks lets you refresh,and maintain better brain health across the day.”

Scientists in UK have grown a living human "brain". The team at Aston University created tiny bunch of cells which act like a mini nervous system.They believe it could help find a cure for worse mental conditions like Parkinson’s disease. Professor Michael Coleman is leading the research program. He explained, "We are aiming to be able to study the human brain at the most basic level, using an actual living human cell system. Cells have to be alive and operating efficiently to enable us to really understand how the brain works. "The experiment involves changing cells from a cancer tumour (肿瘤)and making them behave like brain cells.Although far from finished, researchers hope the false brain cells will give them a greater understanding of how real brains work. This, in turn, could significantly further research into conditions which affect the brain. Neil Hunt, chief leader of the research group, said, "It is still very early days, but in the future the research could lead to a useful tool for looking into dementia (痴呆)."The technique could also provide a way to carry on animal test and is being supported by the Humane Research Trust (HRT). The scientists predict that over the next ten years a million people will develop dementia. Professor Coleman believes their findings could change this. He said,"We hope our research will provide scientists with a new and highly relational human experimental model to help them understand the brain better and develop new drugs to control the related disease. However, the biggest challenge at present is that we are greatly short of fund, which will slow our research."1. UK scientists grow a living human "brain" in order to ______.A. study the structure of human brainB. make use of living human cell systemC. discover how human brain really worksD. separate cells from a cancer tumour2. According to Neil Hunt, research into brain cells ______.A. will get finished as early as possibleB. will make people discover dementiaC. will affect the brain growth in many waysD. will help to treat some diseases in nerve system3. From the last paragraph,we can know that ______A. the technique provided by HRT is immatureB. animal tests are no longer allowed by lawC. a million people suffer from brain diseasesD. the research program lacks financial support4. The text is intended to ______.A. tell us about a breakthrough in medical researchB. introduce a research program in human's brainC. introduce the progress of drugs for dementiaD. tell us about health problem in nerve system【参考答案】1—4、CDDB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。

Listen carefully, working people, we would like to tell you something that could save your precious time and money! Best of all, it is free!It’s “no”.What do you ask? We’ll say it again: “No”.Sweet and simple “no”.Say “no” at your office and see how quickly that pile of work on your desk disappears.“Saying ‘no’ to others means you are saying ‘yes’ to yourself, ” said Leslie Charles, a professional speaker from East Lansing, Michigan.“Time is precious. People are spending money buying time. And yet we are willing to give up our time because we can’t say ‘no’.”Susie Watson, a famous writer, said people who always say “yes” need to say “no” without guilt(内疚)or fear of punishmen t. “I would rather have someone give me a loving ‘no’ than an obligated(强制的) ‘yes’, ” she said.Susie Watson says she feels “no” obligation to give an explanation when she says “no” either socially or professionally. Does she feel guilty about it? “Not at all, ” said Watson, who is director of advertising and public relations at Timex Corp in Middlebury, Conneticut. “Most people are afraid of saying ‘no’… My advice is to say ‘yes’ only if you don’t mean ‘no’.”Watson said “no” is the most effective weapon a gainst wasting time. “Every year there are more demands on your time… Other people are happy to use up your time, ” Watson said. Time saving appears to be “no’s” greatest friend.“No” can be your new friend, a powerful tool to take back your life. “No” may even take you further in the business world than “yes”.“No” is power and strength. “No” now seems completely correct. “Saying ‘no’ isn’t easy. But finally it’s greatly liberating,” Charles said. But, he added, a “no” project needs to be worked on every day because it is hard to change long-term habit.But, he also warns: “Don’t go to extremes. Don’t find yourself saying ‘no’ to everything. In return you should learn to hear ‘no’.”1. The sentence “Saying ‘yes’ to yourself” means _______.A. you can have more time to play with othersB. you needn’t care about other’s feeling if you are happyC. you are selfish and treat others rudelyD. you can deal with your business as you have planned2. When you say “no” to others you should say it in a _______.A. secret wayB. polite wayC. proud wayD. guilty way3.

If a person says “no” to everything, the result he or she receive may be that he or she _______.A. enjoys a wonderful lifeB. makes a lot of moneyC. faces difficulty in lifeD. forgets to say “yes” in the end1、答案解析:答案为D。

2015届成都市武侯区高考英语一轮复习阅读理解训练(2)及答案

成都市武侯区2015阅读理解一轮训练(2)及答案阅读理解Grasslands need time to rest when cattle and other animals feed on them. Moving animals from one area of pasture (牧场) to another can provide the time needed for new growth. This is called rotational grazing .(循环放牧)Rotational grazing is good for the land and the animals, and it can save money. This form of grazing can reduce the need for pesticide (农药) treatments by reducing the growth of weeds. And it can limit the need for chemical fertilizers by letting animal wastes do the job of natural fertilizer. Rotational grazing can even help prevent wildfires by keeping grasslands in good condition.Letting animals feed continually and intensively (集中地) in the same grazing areas can require costly replanting. Animals eat the most desirable growth first. When that keeps happening, the roots do not have enough time to recover. As a result, less desirable plants may replace them. Intensively used grasslands are also harmed as the soil is continually crushed under the weight of heavy animals.While rotational grazing can save money over time, it also requires planning. And that starts with a good map to mark fences, water supplies and grazing areas.Changing methods of grazing also requires time. Farmers may want to put up electric fences to enclose (圈起) grazing areas, called paddocks. The paddocks will need water. Some farmers design a path for animals from different paddocks to drink from a common watering place.Farmers can start rotational grazing by removing animals from a pasture when the grass is eaten to less that five centimeters. The pasture is then kept empty until the grass grows to more than fifteen centimeters high.Sheep and goats may require special preparations. They may need stronger fences than other animals. And while they eat the grass, they may need guard animals to protect them from animals that would like to eat them.67. Grasslands won't depend on chemical fertilizers when __________________.A. the soil of grasslands is naturally richB. animal wastes serve as natural fertilizerC. rotational grazing can prevent wildfiresD. grasslands are usually in good condition68. The function of putting up electric fences is to _____________.A. divide the pasture into paddocksB. encourage animals to get aroundC. stop animals staying at one placeD. provide water supplies for animals69. Why do sheep and goats need guard animals?A. They can easily jump over fences.B. They don't like to stay in the paddockC. wild animals are likely to attack themD. Tigers and lions prefer sheep and goats70. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Giving grasslands a restB. How to feed animalsC. Keeping animals moving in pasturesD. Grass growth and grazing ways【答案】阅读理解:(D) BACA阅读理解。

The baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital. She is quiet but alert(警觉). Twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it. She stares at it carefully. A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another, this time with the spots differently spaced. As the cards change from one to the other, her gaze(凝视)starts to lose its focus--until a third, with three black spots, is presented. Her gaze returns: she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card. Can she tell that the number two is different from three, just 24 hours after coming into the world?Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment, but with three spots shown before two, shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes. Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects (a comb, a key, an orange and so on), changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves. Could it be the pattern that two things make, as opposed to three? No again. Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three, or three to two. The effect even crosses between senses. Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two; likewise(同样地)when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots. 1.Babies are sensitive to the change in _______.A. the size of cardsB. the colour of picturesC. the shape of patternsD. the number of objects2.Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats?A. To reduce the difficulty of the experimentB. To see how babies recognize soundsC. To carry their experiment furtherD. To keep the babes interest.3.Where does this text probably come from?A. Science fictionB. Children’s literatureC. An advertisementD. A science report参考答案1—3、DCD试题分析:本文属于科学研究类的短文,研究婴儿对于外界声音和变化的反应。

Simon Vanderpool, a special education teacher in Lexington, Kentucky, decided to do something about it. He started a program called Books and Barbers. Children go to the barber, choose a book and read out loud while the barber cuts their hair. The child gets a sticker and can take the book home. And there is an added bonus: money. The kids get paid to read.Vanderpool says barber shops are places where kids can feel comfortable. “Once a student feels comfortable, that's whenever the brain opens up, and that they are able to start focusing on nothing but learning.〞 Amir Shalash owns a barber shop. But he is doing more than cutting children's hair. He is listening to them, and helping them with their reading.Most of the children getting haircuts at barber shops are boys. Vanderpool's idea was to do more than just help them with reading and money. The teacher wants to help kids who are growing up in a home without a father like he did. “Also, I created the program in order to provide a positive mentor (指导者) for the kids that go into the barber shop, and are able to have someone that they can rely on and they can trust in, and just build a bond between the two of them.〞 Shalash says he and his fellow barbers like being mentors. “The biggest thing is that we try to influence as many kids as we can, and that was my whole intention of it.〞4.Why did Simon Vanderpool start Books and Barbers?A.To help children kill time.

Last July, my 12-year-old car died on California’s Santa Ana Freeway. It was an hour before sunset, and I was 25 miles from home. I couldn’t reach anyone to pick me up, so I decided to take a bus. Not knowing the routes, I figured I’d just head east.A bus pulled up, and I asked the driver how far she was going. “Four more lights,” she said. There was another bus I could take from there. This clearly was going to be a long night.She dropped me off at the end of her route and told me which bus to look for. After waiting 30 minutes, I began to think about a very expensive taxi ride home. Then a bus pulled up. There was no lighted number above its windshield(挡风玻璃). It was out of service.

A few days earlier, her brother had run out of gas. A good Samaritan picked him up, took him to a service station and then back to his car. “I’m just passing the favor along, ” she said.

Are you preparing for a big test? If so, you may want to go play some basketball in between hitting the books. Doctors are starti ng to find more and more information that suggests a connectio n between exercise and brain development. Judy Cameron, a s cientist at Oregon Health and , studies brain development. Acc ording to her research, it seems that exercise can make blood v essels(血管), including those in the brain, stronger and more fully develo ped. Doctor Cameron is sure that this allows people who exerci se to think better. As she says, “ while we already know that ex ercise is good for the heart, exercise can actually cause physic al changes in the brain.”The effects of exercise on brain development can even be seen in babies. Babies who do activities that requires a lot of movem ent and physical activity show greater brain development than b abies who are less physically active. Even a little movement can show big results. Margaret Barnes, a scientist, also believes i n the importance of exercise. She thinks that many learning dis abilities that children have in primary school or high school can result from a lack of movement as babies. “Babies need movem ent that encourages and excites their five senses. They need to set up a connection between motion and memory. In this way, as they get older, children will begin to connect physical activity with higher learning,” says Margaret.Older people can develop their brains as well. studied a group of seniors who have a short—term memory increase of up to 40 percent after exercising just t hree hours a week. The exercise does not have to be very diffic ult, but it does have to increase the heart rate. Also, just like the motion for babies, exercise for older people should not be too s imple. Learning some new skills or actions, such as with yoga o r tai-chi helps to open up memory paths in the brain that may not ha ve been used for a long time. For most people, any type of phys ical activity that increases the heart rate is helpful. The main ai m is to increase the brain’s flow of blood. And your brain can be nefit from as little as two to three hours of exercise a week.1. What is the main idea of this passage?A. How exercise makes people strong.B. How to get good scores on a test.C. How exercise helps the brain.D. How the brain can change.答案解析:答案为C。

(2013·毕业班质检,B)The “Give It Up for Earth Day” encourages people to commit to giving up actions that are harmful to the environment, such as using poisonous cleaners.Throughout the month of April, Canadians are being asked to “Give It Up for Earth Day!” Earth Day has been celebrated every year on April 22 since 1970. Earth Day Canada president Jed Goldberg says that as people become more environmentally aware, they want to find ways to reduce their environmental influence, not just celebrate one special event.“Earth Day is a great launching_pad for thinking about environmental action every day,”said Goldberg. “Choosing healthier options, even for the short term, can lead to thinking about the influence of our decisions for a lifetime.”That's the reason behind the “Give It Up for Earth Day” campaign. It's designed to encourage healthy habits that benefit people and the planet. It challenges everyone to help create a healthier world by making changes in their daily routine.“We wanted to plan an actiontargeted campaign that will give people a chance to act on their concern for the environment in a positive way,”said Goldberg.The campaign has identified four daily actions that can add up to huge environmental savings. They include pledging (保证) to turn off the TV, give up the use of poisonous cleaners, reduce consumption of consumer products and cut out meat.At the end of April, all of the pledges will be recorded and converted (转化) into the number of TV hours not watched, dollars not spent on unnecessary items, electricity saved, greenhouse gas emissions (排放) avoided by cutting out meat, and poisonous chemicals produced from homes and landfills.“What we're trying to achieve this year for Earth Day is to give people a chance to do something that is meaningful and measurable,” said Goldberg.文章大意:4月22日是世界地球日,活动“Give It Up for Earth Day”倡导人们在地球日这一天为保护环境做一些有意义、行之有效的事情。

2022高考英语战术纪律性特训八阅读理解训练篇章(一)Travel in EuropeInstead of Santorini, TinosSantorini has been struggling with overtourism for years, a victim of its own success, and the Greek government, sought to lure tourists back following an 8-year financial crisis. Now this idyllic destination has reached saturation point (饱和点).A more authentic Greece — the one that Santorini offered before the crowds — can be found in the Cycladic haven of Tinos. With its own enchanting sunsets and rugged charm, this under-the-radar gem is an alluring alternative. Instead of Amsterdam, Delft and The HagueIn 2017, Amsterdam was visited by 19 million people, two million more than those who live in the entire country. The city has a particular problem with tourists on a tight budget — many arriving via low-cost airlines from Britain, France, Germany and beyond, and staying at Airbnbs, in hostels or in their cars. The crowds there get so dense that on weekend summer nigh ts rescue workers often can’t get to people who fall sick or faint.Another two destinations can be easily combined: Delft, about 10 miles away, and The Hague, the seat of Dutch government. Both are ideal for visitors looking for great museums, canals, wild North Sea beaches — and no crowds. Instead of Barcelona, ValenciaFor a less frenetic dose of cosmopolitan Mediterranean charm, head 350 kilometers down the coast to Valencia, Spain’s third-largest city, with 800,000 residents and barely 2 million visitors per year. Founded as a retirement community for Roman soldiers, it has many of the same attributes as Barcelona — both were ancient walled cities —with a sprawling, maze-like(迷宫般的) center filled with Gothic, Romanesque, Renaissance and Baroque architecture. All styles were combined in Valencia Cathedral, built between the 13th and 18th centuries; architectural purists (纯粹主义者) should not miss the 15th-century Silk Exchange, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a stunning reminder of the city’s mercantile importance.1. What can we learn about Santorini?A. It is still a popular place for tourists.B. It is an attractive choice.C. It will win tourists back.D. It suffered overtourism.2. In Amsterdam, the crowds are so dense that .A. the streets are bustling with noise and excitementB. some people can’t be treated in timeC. more visitors will be disturbedD. many people fall sick or faint3. What’s the author’s purpose of writing this passage?A. Recommend some better places to visit.B. Introduce some new places to visit.C. Criticize some crowded places.D. Blame the improper tourism.Wherever we humans go, we leave behind a mess. That goes for space, too. An estimated 500,000 pieces of debris (碎片) litter the Earth’s orbit as a result of man’s explorations of space. Some satellites have been hit by fast-moving pieces of junk. The remains of old rockets can be the size of a bus, while other pieces of debris are simply tiny spots of paint.Today, we h uman beings are responsible for the junk dashing around Earth at high speed, and if we don’t start actively removing the largest pieces, the risk of collisions will only grow worse. “Imagine how dangerous sailing the high seas would be, if all the ships ev er lost in history were still floating on top of the water,” says Jan Wörner, ESA director general. “That is the current situation in orbit, and it cannot be allowed to continue.”It’s almost as if we need a truck to remove all of the failed satellites fro m our orbit. By 2025, the agency plans on launching the world’s first orbiting junk collector, a four-armed robot that tracks down space waste. The first-of-its-kind task, known as ClearSpace-1, will start collecting only a single piece of space junk to prove the concept works. The target in this case is called Vespa, a leftover from ESA’s Vega rocket launch in 2013. This piece of junk weighs roughly the same as a small satellite and has a simple shape that should make it easy to be grabbed with four robotic arms. Once it’s safely in the arms of the garbage collector, it will then be dragged out of orbit and allowed to burn up in the atmosphere.In addition, an Australian company, Electro Optic Systems, has received a $3.5 million government fund to develop the world’s first laser tracking(激光跟踪) technology. Hi will replace existing radar(雷达) networks that currently monitor that part of space. The goal is to track small objects with great accuracy.1. Why does Jan Wörner refer to ships on the high seas?A. To explain the danger of space debris.B. To describe the universe’s huge space.C. To praise man’s explorations of space.D. To compare the oceans with the universe.2. How do humans plan to handle debris?A. By ClearSpace-1 and Vespa.B. By ESA’s Ve ga rocket launch and radar networks.C. By the orbiting junk collector and the laser tracking technology.D. By truck to remove all of the failed satellites and track small objects.3. What is not the $3.5 million government fund used for?A. Developing th e world’s first laser tracking technology.B. Replacing existing radar networks.C. Tracking small objects with great accuracy.D. Monitoring a part of space.4. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Dangerous Space ExplorationB. Cleaning up Space Junk PiecesC. Developing Space TechnologyD. Launching a Four-Armed RobotResearchers studied data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, organized by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in the United States and looked at the relationship between cups of coffee drunk per day, and both total body fat percentage and abdominal or trunk fat.They found that women aged 20—44 who drank two or three cups of coffee per day had the lowest level of obesity, 3.4% lower than people who did not consume coffee. Among women aged between 45—69, those who drank four or more cups had an obesity percentage 4.1% lower.Overall, the average total body fat percentage was 2.8% lower among women of all ages who drank two or three cups of coffee per day.The findings were consistent whether the coffee consumed was caffeinated(含咖啡因的) or decaffeinated and among smokers/non-smokers and those suffering from chronic diseases when compared to those in good health.In men, the relationship was less significant although men aged 20—44 who drank two or three cups per day had 1.3% less total fat and 1.8% less trunk fat than those who did not consume coffee.Around 7 million tons of coffee is consumed globally every year. Dr. Lee Smith, senior author of the study, said: “Our research suggests that there may be active compounds in coffee other than caffeine that manage weight and which could potentially be used as anti-obesity compounds.”“I could be possible that coffee, or its eff ective ingredients could be integrated into a healthy diet strategy to reduce the burden of chronic conditions related to the obesity,” Dr. Lee Smith added. “It is important to interpret the findings of this study in light of its limitations — the study was at a specific point in time so trends cannot be established. However, we don’t believe that someone’s weight is likely to influence their coffee consumption.”1. What can be inferred from the text?A. Coffee has less effect on men than women in fat according to the findings.B. The women aged 20—44 like to drink two or three cups of coffee per day.C. The researchers found that the coffee consumers preferred caffeinated coffee.D. Trends will be established to limit people’s weight by their coffee consump tion.2. What in coffee mainly influences hardly fat according to Dr. Lee Smith?A. The caffeine.B. The decaffeinated.C. The effective compounds.D. The rich nutrition.3. What might the study be used for?A. Developing a new coffee.B. The treatment of obesity.C. The treatment of heart disease.D. The study of physical differences between the sexes.4. Where is this text most likely from?A. A diary.B. A guidebook.C. A novel.D. A magazine.In a time when a dangerous number of people are overweight, many people seem to have forgotten the most important way to keep healthy and slim —exercise. And as a new study carried out on mice in the lab has shown, exercise done early in life can reward you in your adult years.A team of researchers at the University of California studied the effects of early exercise on adult physical activity, body mass and eating. They found that early-age exercise of mice has positive effects on adult levels of voluntary exercise in addition to reducing body mass.“These results may have an effect on the importance of regular physical education in elementary and middle schools,” said Theodore Garland, a professor of biology, who led the research project. “If kids exercise regu larly during their school years, then they may be more likely to exercise as adults, which could have far-reaching positive effects on human health and well-being.”Although the positive effects of early-life exercise lasted for only one week, it is important to note that one week in the life of a mouse is the same as about nine months for humans. “Our results suggest that any positive effect of early-life exercise on adult exercise will need to be kept up if they are to be long-lasting.”His team of researchers found, too, that all mice that had access to early exercise were lighter in weight than non-exercised mice.Garland explained, in general, that exercise will stimulate appetite sooner or later. However, it is possible that certain types of exercise, done for certain periods of time or at certain light levels, might not stimulate appetite much, if at all, at least for some individuals.“If we could understand what sorts of exercise these might be, then we might be able to tailor exercise recommendations in a way that would bring the benefits of exercise without increasing appetite, leading to a better chance of weight loss,” he said.1. What does the first paragraph mainly talk about?A. The positive effects of mice.B. The possible risks of doing exercise.C. The positive effects of early-life exercise.D. New ways to fight against being overweight.2. How long do the positive effects of early-life exercise last for a mouse?A. One day.B. One week.C. One month.D. Nine months.3. What does the underlined word “stimulate” in Paragraph 6 mean?A. Decline.B. Improve.C. Vary.D. Harm.4. What can help us choose proper exercise without changing our appetite?A. Early-life exercise.B. Kids being encouraged to do exercise as early as possible.C. Better understanding the effects of different types of exercise.D. Having regular physical education in elementary and middle schools.七选五训练篇章If you’re going abroad for college, you might be thinking about how to get yourself a saf e and cozy home for the years ahead.

If you are just a fre shman or don’t know many people, don’t hesitate to approach some upperclassmen. More often than not, upperclassmen have more experience with renting and are more familiar with the surrounding area of your school.Another good idea is to talk to seniors who are currently living off campus. These seniors’ landlords will most likely be looking for new tenants(房客) after graduation of these seniors.Also, registered realtors(房地产经纪人) might be able to find you a place for a fee.

My daughter has been in karate (空手道) since the first grade,and has been in high honor and gifted classes her whole life.She is always a joy,and at 15,though people tell me we should be fighting and she should be hanging out at malls and chasing boys,she is none of that.My 11-year-old son,Tom,for years would fight with me over everything.If I said the sky was blue,he would say it was black.For years he was failing several subjects.We took games away and then TV; we tried a reward program,but nothing worked long.He would bring a grade up to get his stuff (物品) back,and then go back to where he had been.My daughter told me one day to bring him to her karate class,and maybe life in the martial arts (武术) would help him turn around.At first he didn't like it because he had to ask permission to do anything,and he had to say “yes,sir” and “no,sir” for everything.He even had to respect his sister,because she was of a high rank.So he wanted to stop.However,my husband told our son,“If I can do this at 40 something years old,so can you.”And then I would take my whole family three or four times a week to learn martial arts.My son learned so much about a better way of living:respecting others,following the rules,and above all respecting himself.I am proud to say both of my kids are now high honor students,and we could not be closer than we are.There is always an answer to your problem.If you do your research or just ask another person,or even a kid for help,you will find it.And when it comes to our kids,the right answer is always worth finding.【解题导语】作者通过自己的经历告诉父母们,在教育孩子的过程中遇到困难不要放弃,只要努力总会找到解决问题的办法。

]黑龙江省大庆市喇中2016高考英语阅读练习——新闻报道类The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of September 2 ,1666. In four days it destroyed more than three-quarters of the old city, where most of the houses were made of wood and close together. Over one hundred people became homeless, but only a few lost their lives. The fire started on Sunday morning in the house of the King's baker (面包师) in Pudding Lane. The baker, with his wife and family, was able to get out through a window into the roof. A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery into a small hotel next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning.By eight o'clock three hundred houses were on fire. On Monday nearly a kilometer of the citywas burning along the River Thames. Tuesday was the worst day. The fire destroyed many well-known buildings, old St Paul's and the Guildhall among them.Samuel Pepys, the famous writer, wrote about the fire, "People threw their things into the river. Many poor people stayed in their houses until the last moment. Birds fell out of the air because of the heat."The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire. With nothing left to burn, the fire became weak and finally died out. After the fire, Christopher Wren, the architect (建筑师), wanted a city with wider streets and fine new houses of stone. In fact, the streets are still narrow, but he did build more than fifty churches, among them the new St Paul's.The fire caused great pain and loss, but after it London was a better place: a city for the future and not just of the past.【小题1】It seems that the writer of the text was most sorry for the fact that _____.A.some people lost their livesB.the birds in the sky were killed by the fireC.many famous buildings were destroyedD.the King's bakery was burned down【小题2】Why did the writer cite (引用) Samuel Pepys?A.To give the reader a clearer picture of the fire.B.Because Pepys also wrote about the fire.C.To show that poor people suffered most.D.Because Pepys was among those putting out the fire.【小题3】How was the fire put out according to the text?A.The King and his soldiers came to help.B.All the houses made of wood in the city were destroyed.C.People managed to get enough water from the river.D.Houses standing in the direction of the fire were pulled down.【陕西省2014五校联考】B阅读下列四篇短文, 从每小题后所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中, 选出最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。
