高中英语真题:2014高考英语完形填空、阅读理解精品系列（12）含答案AThe 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 immedi ately get a churning in our stomach and wonder what we have done wrong. If this were explored we might remember the time t he head teacher called us in to tell us off. Of course, not everyt hing in the Child ego state is negative. We might go into someo ne’s house and smell a lovely smell and remember our grandm other’s house when we were little, and all the same warm feelin gs we had at six years of age may come flooding back.The Child ego states are constantly being updated. For exampl e, we may meet someone who gives us the permission we nee ded as a child, and did not get, to be fun and joyous. We may w ell use that person in our imagination when we are stressed to r esist our old ways of thinking that we must work longer and longer hours to keep up with everything. We might ask ourselves “I wonder what X would say now.” Then on hearing the new perm issions to relax and take some time out, do just that and then re turn to the work renewed and ready for the challenge. Afterward s, rather than blaming ourselves for what we did or did not do, what tends to happen is that we automatically start to give ours elves new permissions and take care of ourselves. Alternatively, we might have had an extremely unpleasant expe rience yesterday which goes into the Child ego state as an anti que memory that stands in the way of our growth. Positive expe riences will also go into the Child ego state as antique memorie s. 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 c alled structural analysis. It is important to remember that ego st ates do not have an existence of their own. They are concepts t o enable understanding. Therefore it is important to say “I want some fun” rather than “My Child wants some fun.” We may be i n our Child ego state when we say this, but saying “I” reminds u s 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 whywe 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 on e’s actionsC. limits one’s thoughtsD. exists in one’s childho od4. The underlined word “this” in the last paragraph refers to ___ _______.A. structural analysisB. “My Child wants some fu n”C. the Child ego stateD. “I want some fun”*************************BThe 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 mini ng 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 tunn els and ma p abandoned mines—some of the most dangerous work in the business.The latest prototype is called Cave Crawler. It’s a bit smaller tha n Groundhog, and even more advanced. It can take photos and video and has sensors mounted that can detect the presence o f dangerous gases. Incredibly, the robot has a real sense of logi c. If it comes across an obstacle it gets momentarily confused, i t has to t hink through the process and where to go next, and sometimes it throws a fit just lik e a real person.The biggest obstacle, though, is cost. The original research proj ect was federally funded, but that money has dried up, and it’s not clear where future funding will come from. Partly for that rea son, and partly because of advances in safety, mining is not ne arly as dangerous as it was in the past. Since 1990, fatalities ha ve declined by 67 percent, and injuries by 51 percent, accordin g to the National Mining Association.Someexperts predict that robots in mines will serve much of the s ame function that they do in the automotive industry.

So, too, are health problems linked to b eing overweight.The WHO says a major reason for the rising obesity rates is an increase in imported foods. It says many Pacific islanders have replaced their traditional diets of vegetables and fruits with imported processed foods.Dr.Temu Waqanivalu is with the World Health Organization’s S outh Pacific office in Suva, Fiji.He says many of the imported pr oducts lack nutritional value.Temu Waqanivalu said: “In some of the places, you’d be amaze d to see how a bottle of Coke is cheaper than a bottle of water.I think that represents the kind of offenvironment we’ve created that doesn’t really encourage or make lifestyle choices an easy choice for the population.”And a lack of physical activity among many Pacific islanders onl y adds to the obesity problem.The WHO says more than 50 percent of the population is overw eight in at least ten Pacific island countries. The rate is as high as 80 percent among women in the territory（领地）of American Samoa. Fiji had the lowest obesity rate at 30 perce nt.In all, almost ten million people live in Pacific island countries. T he WHO estimates that about 40 percent of them have health di sorders related to diet and nutrition.Diabetes（糖尿病）rates are among the highest in the world. Forty-seven percent of the people in American Samoa have diabetes. So do 44 percent of the people in Tokelau, a territory of New Zealand.By comparison, the diabetes rate is 13 percent in the United St ates, a country that has its own problems with rising obesity. Officials also note an increase in nutritional problems like anemi a and not enough vitamin A in the diets of Pacific islanders. Dr. Waqanivalu says treating conditions related to obesity and diet puts pressure on limited health resources and budgets.72.

高中英语真题:2014高考英语阅读理解基础全程训练（12）及答案较难题目特训：科普知识类People who are taking aspirin regularly to thin their blood and a re about to undergo coronary artery bypass surgery (冠状动脉旁路搭桥术) are usually to stop the aspirin a week before the operation – but they could be better off if they keep taking it.Taking aspirin up to the day coronary artery bypass grafting (移植) is performed seems to speed lung function recovery afterwa rds, without increasing the risk of bleeding significantly, accordi ng to a report from Israel.Release of a substance called thromboxane (血栓素) is associated with lung injury after heart bypass grafting, Dr Rabin Gerrah at Assuta Medical Center in Tel Aviv and his colle agues explained in the medical journal Chest. Aspirin is believe d to inhibit release of thromboxane, so Gerrah’s group theorize d that the administration of aspirin until the day of the surgery c ould improve outcomes.They therefore followed 14 patients who took 100 milligrams ofaspirin daily until the day of the surgery and 18 who stopped tak ing aspirin at least 7 days before the surgery.Those who continued with their aspirin had significantly lower th romboxane in fluid around the heart, better oxygen levels in thei r blood and spent less time on a ventilator(呼吸器) than the group who discontinued taking aspirin.On the other hand, the need for blood transfusions was no diffe rent between the groups, indicating that bleeding complications were no worse with aspirin.The researchers had excluded patients who had suffered a hea rt attack and those with heart failure because patients like these have a higher level of thrombaxane. “They will probably benefit even more than its inhibition.”Based on their findings, Ger rah’s team recommends that aspiri n therapy(治疗) not be discontinued before coronary artery bypass surgery.55. From the passage we know that_______.A. doctors usually get people who will have coronary artery byp ass surgery to stop taking aspirin 7 days before the operationB. aspirin is believed to increase release of thromboxaneC. taking aspirin up to the day coronary artery bypass grafting i s performed seems to slow lung function recovery afterwardsD. patients suffering a heart attack have a lower level of thromb oxane56. The purpose of the passage is to introduce to us that _____ ____.A. aspirin can make for release of thromboxaneB. aspirin is useful for patients suffering a heart attackC. different ways turn out to be the same resultD. aspirin may improve recovery after heart bypass57. According to Dr Rabin Gerrah, patients who will have heart bypass surgery should _______.A. stop taking aspirin before the surgeryB. take aspirin as much as they like until the day of the surgeryC. be allowed to take 100 milligrams of aspirin daily until the da y of the surgeryD. take aspirin after the heart bypass operation58. What does the underlined word “inhibit” in paragraph 3 mea n?A. to become larger or better than normalB. to make something happen more slowly than normalC. to cause to be nervous or embarrassedD. to improve something in poor condition【参考答案】4.55-58 ADCB阅读理解-----AMany people eventually get round to trading in their first car.

He loves his 1931 black Bentley sports car so much that he’s still driving it – 54 years after be bought it.Mr Harrison was 20 when he paid £150 (about £3,000 now) for the car after passing his test in 1956. It h ad already done 85,000 miles and he has since driven it a furth er 100,000, yet the car still runs like clockwork.It is now one of only three left in the country and is worth £250, 000. Despite its value, Mr Harrison, 74, says he would never sel l the car “which has been my best friend and part of my family a ll my life”.Mr Harrison courted his wife Jenny in it during the early sixties and it was their family car when children Caroline, now 46, and Ben, 42, came along. Even when he took a job as an advertisin g executive which came with the company car of his choice, Mr Harrison kept the Bentley.He said: 'How many people still have their first car these days w hen everything is so disposable? But it is a real eye-catcher. It has something that modern cars just don't have - styl e and character. 'I still drive it most days, even though it only do es about 15 miles to the gallon!' Petrol was just six shillings (30 p) a gallon when Mr Harrison bought the Bentley, which had a t op speed of 120mph.He has spent thousands of pounds on repairs over the years bu t has kept the bodywork in good condition himself, hand-painting the underneath and spraying the black panels of the bo dywork.For decades the Bentley was a regular sight on the roads near Mr Harrison's home in , Surrey. He now uses it as a runaround after retiring to Whitney-on-Wye, Herefordshire.Mrs Harrison, 71, said: “It was a nuisance(累赘) keeping it in tip-top order with me helping out with the repairs by passing Mike t he spanners the whole time.

Study author Brent Cok er said, “Surfing the Internet at times helps increase an employ ee’s attention.”“People need to relax for a bit to get back their attention,” Co ker said on the university’s website. “Having a short break, such as a quick surfing of the Internet, helps the mind to rest itself, leading to a higher total Internet attention for a day’s work, and as a result, increases productivity(生产效率),”he said.According to the study of 300 workers, 70 percent of people who use the Internet at work surf the Internet for their own reas ons during office hours. Among the most popular surfing activiti es are searching for information about products, reading online news, playing online games and watching videos. “Firms spend a lot of money on software to block their employees from watch ing video, using social networking sites or shopping online,” sai d Coker. “That’s not always a good idea.”However, Coker said the study looked at people who surfed t he Internet in moderation (适度), or were on the Internet for less than 20 percent of their total time in the office. “Those who spend too much time surfing the Internet will have a lower productivity than those without,” he sa id.51. What does the University of Melbourne study mainly show?A. People who surf the Internet are good employees.B. Not everyone surfs the Internet for fun during office hours.C. Surfing the Internet for fun during office hours increases prod uctivity.D. The Internet is becoming more and more important in people’s life.52.

First of all, it is very convenient for people to purchase what they want or like with the Internet easily accessible via computers or cellphones. Second, people shopping online have more choices of goodsthan they do in real shops and are able to save time as well. Third, the relatively low prices on the Internet also account for higher sales online.In my opinion, as the pace of life quickens, it is natural for people to choose online shopping to save time and energy. But when we enjoy the convenience it brings us, we should be careful because sometimes the quality of goods cannot be guaranteed. Further more, we’d better stay rational and just buy what we really need, otherwise it would cause a waste of money and resources.

Right after the Second World War, Germany was in ruins. Almost all the houses, factories and schools were destroyed。
Plenty of people were homeless as well as jobless。
Worse still，the supply of water and electricity was often cut off in the city. Two American journalists interviewed a German family living in the basement. The husband was disabled from the war and the wife was just dismissed from a clothing company。
Worse still，there were bills for them to pay-four children to care for and food to buy. Life was hard for them at that time。
After the interview, the journalists chatted with each other on the way back to the company。
“Do you think the Germans could rebuild their homeland?”“Absolutely。

Once upon a time in a land far away, there was a wonderful old man who loved everything：animals, spiders，insects...One day while walking through the woods the nice old man found a cocoon（茧）of a butterfly. He took it home。
A few days later, a small opening appeared; he sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could go no farther。
Then the man decided to help the butterfly, so he took a pair of scissors and cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon.The butterfly then came out with ease。
But it had a swollen body and small，shriveled（萎缩的）wings。
The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that，at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body。

They believe a public park should be free of charge. People need a place where they can rest and enjoy themselves。
Charging entrance fees will no doubt keep some people away. What ismore, it will become necessary to build gates and walls，which will do harm to the appearance of a city。
On the other hand，40% think that fees should be charged because you need money to pay gardeners and other workers, and to buy plants and young trees。

【参考范文】读写任务：When some people started the “Clean Your Plate” campaign in an effort to reduce food waste, millions of netizens joined in it and more and more people are taking real action to stop food waste.As many people are still living in poverty around us, I’m quite delighted by this campaign. As far as I know, while people in advanced countries don’t have to worry about their meals, millions of people in some poor areas are suffering from hunger every day. Though most Chinese have enough food to eat, there are still some others who are struggling hard for a little food to fill their stomach. Unfortunately, I can always see people leave a large part of their food on their plate and throw it as waste. It is reported that every year the Chinese altogether waste 50 million tons of food, which is enough to feed 200 million people for a whole year. What an alarming waste it is! We should feel guilty to waste so much food.It is high time that we took action to stop such waste without delay. There is every reason for us to clean our plates at our meals. If all people cut down food waste, a large quantity of food can be saved and more people will be fed.The “Clean Your Plate” campaign is really good and useful. Let’s join in and eat up our meals instead of wasting any food.【2013界广东深圳市第二次调研考试】读写任务（共1小题，满分25分）阅读下面微博上的短文，然后按要求写一篇150词左右的英语短文。

The ride began in the morning, and for the first few hours, I felt wonderful. But by the end of the day, I felt tired and bored.Every excuse my brai n pushed out seemed to travel right down to my legs. “I can’t handle this,” and “everyone else is a better rider” were translated into shortness of breath. I was sure I’d have to quit.Then I noticed that the lone rider in front of me looked different in some way. But she was too far away for me to tell why. So I pushed my self to catch up. There she was, riding alone slowly but steadily, with a slight and determined smile on her face-and she has only one leg.My focus changed at that moment, For a whole da y I’d been doubting my body, but now I knew it was the will that would help me reach my goal.[写作内容]1．以约30个词概括以上博文的主要内容。
