山西太谷县2017高考英语一轮阅读理解编练【健康环保类—阅读理解】(2015模拟题)HortonAt first glance,there is little in Horton to attract people.The other nearby towns have much more to offer:Bradfield has its river and historic buildings,while Newtown has shops and entertainment.The buildings of Horton look dirty and unloved.For shops,there is a small supermarket,a few bargain shops,a bakery which,strangely,does not sell bread and a florist which has one stand of sad­looking flowers.Even so,Horton has several advantages over its neighbouring towns.Firstly,it has a country park.Four thousand years ago,this was an important fort.There are no historic remains here now,but there are wonderful views over the countryside.On sunny weekends you can often see kids out with their parents,kicking balls or flying kites.There aren’t many job opportunities in Horton,and the roads to nearby cities aren’t really fast,but there are excellent rail links.You can be in London in an hour and a half,and other cities are less than an hour away.That means that parents can earn a good salary and still get home in time to spend the evenings with their families.Houses in Horton aren’t pretty,but they’re functional and cheap.The streets are quiet and safe,and there are plenty of parks and playgrounds.It has a library,three primary schools and a secondary school,St.Mark’s.It is friendly and offers a wide range of subjects and activities to children of all abilities and backgrounds.The town also has a swimming and a sports centre,and the community halls hold regular clubs and events for people of all ages.1.What is the writer’s main purpose?A.To explain what tourists can do in Horton.B.To explain why Horton is a good place to live in.C.To explain why Horton is not as pleasant as other towns.D.To describe the history of Horton.答案 B解析写作意图题。

UNIT 3 单元主题训练Ⅰ.阅读理解AEfforts to preserve the Amazon rainforest are growing ever more urgent as the ecosystem's destruction accelerates. A recent study shows that a new program combining on-the-ground monitoring with satellite data and smartphone technology could help put the brakes on Amazon deforestation (毁林) — and potentially that of forests elsewhere.The scientists cooperated with 76 local communities, 36 of which participated in using satellite­based “early deforestation alerts”,an early-alert system on a smartphone app, to watch over the forest and to inspect forests and document damage. Over the next two years the participants were paid to work as forest monitors and received monthly alerts via the app when satellite data indicated local forest losses. Monitors investigated alerts and inspected for deforestation in the areas. They reported confirmed losses back to their communities, which decided whether to deal with the affairs on their own or inform state authorities.The researchers analyzed the same forest-loss satellite data from the given time period in all 76 communities. They found the program reduced forest loss by 8.4 hectares (公顷) in the first year — a 52 percent reduction compared with the average loss in the control communities, says Tara Slough, an economist at New York University. “This reduction in deforestation was concentrated in communities facing the largest threat of forest loss,” she adds.Results for the program were less striking in its second year, when forest loss was reduced by only 3.3 hectares compared with that in control communities. The researchers explain that a Peruvian government campaign against coca planting that year may have discouraged deforestation in both experimental and control communities, narrowing differences between the two groups in the program.Experts say this approach to dealing with Amazonian deforestation looks promising. Local groups may continue the work they started in the program. “We want to apply this in other communities. In doing so, we are making a contribution to the world,”wrote Francisco, a community member involved in the research.语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。

一轮复习最新高考英语阅读理解精选含答案一、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。

With the tears streaming down her face,she put her two hands to her lips,and kissed them to Him; then clasped(紧握着)them on her breast,as if she laid his ruined head there.“You are not the gaoler’s(监狱长)daughter ?”She sighed“No. ”“Who are you ?”Not yet trusting the tones of her voice,she sat down on the bench beside him.He drew back but she laid her hand upon his arm.A strange thrill struck him when she did so, and visibly passed over his frame; he laid the knife down softly,as he sat staring at her.Her golden hair,which she wore in long curls,had been hurriedly pushed aside,and fell down over her neck.Advancing his hand by little and little,he took it up and looked at it.In the middle of the action he went astray,and,with another deep sigh,fell to work at his shoemaking.But lot for long.Releasing his arm,she laid her hand upon his shoulder.After looking doubtfully at it,two or three times,as if to be sure that it was really there,he laid down his work,put his hand to his neck,and took off a blackened string with a scrap of folded rag attached to it.He opened this,carefully,on his knee,and it contained a very little quantity of hair:not more than one or two long golden hairs,which he had,in some old day,wound on upon his finger.He took her hair into his hand again,and looked closely at it.“It is the same.How can it be!When was it! How was it!”As the concentrating expression returned to his forehead,he seemed to become conscious that it was in hers too.He turned her full to the light,and looked at her.“She had laid her head upon my shoulder,that night when I was summoned(传唤)out—she had a fear of my going,though I had none—and when I was brought to the North Tower they found these upon my sleeve.‘You will leave me them? They can never help me to escape in the body,though they may in the spirit.’Those were the words I said.I remember them very well. ”He formed this speech with his lips many times before he could utter it.But when he did find spoken words for it,they came to him coherently(连贯地),though slowly.“How was this?一Was it you? ”1.The underlined word“it” in the passage refers to“”.A.her hair B.her hand C.his arm D.his shoulder2.The passage is most probably taken from .A.a chant B.a drama C.a novel D.an essay3.From the passage,we can infer that .A.the lady was the gaoler’s friend B.the man lived a peaceful lifeC.they hadn’t seen each other for years D.they made a happy conversation4.The old man took the lady’s hair into his hand again because .A.the hair reminded him of his daughterB.he found the hair of high qualityC.the lady had almost the same hair as he didD.the lady’s hair worried him so much5.The writer attracts the readers by .A.describing the changes of the relationshipB.giving a vivid description of detailsC.using funny and humorous languageD.presenting unpredictable consequence【参考答案】1—5、BCCAB2016高考英语阅读理解--日常生活类Papa’s Straw HatPapa was a ranger. He worked with horses. He always wore clean clothes with a hat even when he worked. His hat was always the same kind of a cowboy hat- large black hat of heavy wool. He wore his hat full and high. I think he wanted to look taller than he really was.Mama was proud of the way he looked when he wore his hat and his best clothes. But in some way she got the idea that papa would lose his hair if he kept wearing a heavy wool cowboy hat in the hot weather. She began to talk about his hats.“Papa,” she said one day, “why don't you get a nice cool straw hat? That heavy wool cowboy hat may cause losing hair!” Papa laughed at her and explained that the horses wouldn’t recognize him if he changed the hat. But she didn’t believe him.Mama talked and talked about the hat all summer long. At last papa answered, a little angry, “It would not the cowboy hat but a wife’s talking about the hat that makes me lose my hair.” Mama had a very serious look on her face. She went straight out and later came home with a straw hat. It was a bad year for ranger and we didn't have much money. She thought that if she spent the money for a straw hat, papa would wear it. When papa saw the hat, his face got red. Without a word, he pulled the straw hat down over his head until it hid his eyes and went on to train the horses.He was a good ranger and gentle to his horses. But as papa got close to the horses this time, they jumped high into the air, raising their front feet. All of them ran around in the rounded field and then raced toward the barn. Papa began to shout “Woo boys. Steady boys, steady.” But there was nothing equal to.Papa walked back straight to the stove in the kitchen, pushed the straw hat deep down into the fire then turned to mama, in a way that even fri ghtened me. “Now listen to me, mama. Understand this I will never wear a straw hat or any other kind of hat my horses do not like.” Then he put on his wool cowboy hat and walked out of the house.I never heard mama talk any more about hats. Perhaps, that is why when papa died many years later, there was a round spot on the top of his head where there was no hair.【小题1】According to the passage, a ranger is _______.A.a person wearing a woolen hatB.a position requiring clean clothesC.a person training horses for some purposeD.a person riding a carriage with horses【小题2】Mama bought papa a straw hat because _______.A.most cowboys preferred to wear itB.she was worried about his healthC.a woolen one didn’t suit papaD.it was cheap and she could save money【小题3】What quality can we learn from papa?A.Gentle. B.Patient. C.Committed. D.Modest.【小题4】It can be learned from the story that _______.A.this family were not rich but diligentB.papa didn’t love the straw hat and mamaC.protecting hair was very importantD.a cowboy hat was useful on farming【广东省东莞市2014模拟试题】DI remember my mother as a strong woman. She came to America when she was 12—old enough to remember her language, she achieved scores and grades high enough to be admitted to Duke University. With a degree in computer science, she finally became the manager of a company in New York. My mother could give fluent speeches, say “wolve s” correctly.It was my mother who always stressed the importance of language. From the time I was born, I was read to. I would fall asleep to the sounds of my parents’voices, whether it was my dad’s softly accented, or my mother’s clear English. The flow of language was unbroken, and whether in Chinese or English, the stream of communication flowed through our house.One October morning in sixth grade, after my mother had left to catch the train to the city, I left the house for the bus stop. I was surprised when I saw our car, the door hanging open. As I drew closer, I saw my mother lying on the ground.In the hospital, it was hard to believe that the lady who lay before me was my mom. My mother could not remember my name. As the leaves changed colors, it became clear that the stroke had created a wall between my mother’s mind and mouth: her mind was not any less clear, but the words she spoke were not what she meant.The battle my mother faced taught me the importance of language. Without it, identity does not exist; relationships cannot be formed; stories cannot be told; directions cannot be given, and knowing anything about anyone is impossible. Without language, communication cannot take place. Without language, one cannot express the beauty of a sunset or the kindness of a stranger. The world would pass us by in silence.41. From where might the author’s mom come to America?A. ChinaB. EnglandC. RussiaD. Canada42. From the second paragraph, we can know ________.A. the author was taught to read since she was bornB. the author’s father spoke English poorlyC. the author couldn’t fall asleep without being read toD. the author’s parents taught her language by talking a lot43. According to the last two paragraphs, the author’s mom was unable to _______.A. think clearlyB. express herself wellC. speakD. open her mouth44. The underlined word “stroke” in the 4th paragraph most probably refers to ______.A. an accidentB. a hitC. an illnessD. a robbery45. This passage is mainly about _________.A. a strong motherB. the importance of languageC. a family disasterD. the significance of teaching language【参考答案】41—45 ADBCB阅读理解(共20小题;每小题2分,满分40分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C和D项中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Children spend more time messaging each other on phones and websites than talking in Person ,a survey has revealed. Text messages and social networking sites have become the common mode of youngsters aged 8 to 14.A survey of modem childhood found that many youngsters are conscious that they are spending too much time on their computers and enjoy themselves the most 'when playing outside. But the lure of electronic products proves too strong for a quarter, while a fifth say their parents don't like them playing outside because they are worried about strangers and injuries.The "iGeneration report" suggested that youngsters are increasingly health-conscious and skeptical(特怀疑态度的) of commercialization, including gender-based labelling on toys and pop videos released by singers. More than half of those questioned care about eating healthily and one in 10 lectures their own parents about the food they are eating or buying. 42 percent of those questioned own a smartphone , with 36 percent admitting to spending more time communicating with friends via instant messaging, such as texts or networking websites, than talking in person Only one child in 100 said that being happy, having a loving family and being clever were taken as the most crucial(决定性的) elements in their lives.Cary Cooper, the professor of organizational psychology and health at Lancaster University , said social media were contributing to youngsters becoming more independent. They had a sense of individuality due to exposure to a range of media.The survey follows major statebacked research which found that youngsters are turning their back on drink, drugs and smoking. It found a dramatic drop in the number of secondary school students trying and regularly using drugs, alcohol and tobacco. Some analysts said that thanks to the rise of social media, millions of teenagers are spending their time at home in their rooms rather than out on the streets.1. Why can't 25 percent of the children get away from electronic products?A. They are not allowed to hang out long.B. They are protected from strangers and injuries.C. They enjoy themselves most when playing outside.D. They can't resist the temptation of the products.2. The survey of modem childhood found that many youngsters _____.A. are fans of the pop videos released by singersB. message each other more rather than chat in personC. are doubtful about possessing the latest smartphonesD. pay no attention to their lifestyle nowadays .3. The attitude of Cary Cooper towards social metlia is______.A. objectiveB. negativeC. supportiveD. unclear4. The last paragraph is written to show_______.A. the benefits of social mediaB. the drop of taking drugs in youngstersC. the exposure to a range of mediaD. youngsters are becoming more conscious【参考答案】1-4DBCA2016高考英语阅读理解--日常生活类We have arrived in the hot, wet city of Bangkok.This is our first trip to Thailand(泰国).All the different smells make us want to try the food.We are going to eat something special for dinner tonight.The hotel we are staying in is cheap, and very clean.We plan to stay here for a few days, visit some places in the city, and then travel to Chiang Mai in the North.Tuesday, March 27thBangkok is wonderful and surprising!

We are, but we’re also giving a home to lots of tiny little creatures we didn’t even know about. A showerhead carries thousands of bacteria called Mycobacterium.These can cause problems like coughs and tiredness, and a general feeling of poorliness (身体不舒服). When you turn on the water, the bacteria go from the showerhead onto and into your body.This is a finding of Norman R. Pace and his team at the University of Colorado, in the US. The scientists investigated bacteria in all kinds of human environment, including showers.Pace's team looked at 45 showerheads in nine American cities. They discovered that 30 percent of them had large amounts of flying Mycobacterium.But Pace said that they pose few threats to the health.Only those with a weak immune system might need to worry.He told the New York Times that the bacteria are not as unpleasant as might be thought.He said that having a shower is no more dangerous than anything else we do in the morning.But for those who feel sick about the idea of all those microorganisms (微生物), he had some advice. Let the water run for 30 seconds before getting into the shower. Why? The number of bacteria is smaller than that when the water is just turned on. If that seems like a waste of water, he added that you could also change your showerhead every few months.However, Pace had good news too. He has also been testing the air in US subways. Apart from iron particles (粒子), which are ground off the track by the wheels of trains, subway air is fresh. The reason is that a train’s movement pumps fresh outdoor air into the tunnels.Pace explained that he wanted to understand the natural microbial environments of public places. This kind of knowledge might help discover the microbes to be used in a bioterrorist (生物恐怖分子) attack.【小题1】 From the finding of Norman R. Pace, after taking a shower, we might cough or feel tired because .A. i t’s easy to get a cold when taking a bathB. the showerhead carries many bacteria causing illnessC. we don’t get cleaned while showeringD. we don’t get a weak immune system【小题2】According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. Hot water could kill most of bacteria in showerheads.B. Of 45 showerheads surveyed in nine cities, 30 carried large amounts of Mycobacterium.C. Changing showerheads is the only way to avoid microorganisms.D. Shower water contains much less bacteria after being left to run for 30 seconds.【小题3】We can learn from the third paragraph that .A. having a shower in the morning is more dangerous than at other timeB. the bacteria always threat people’s healthC. there is no reason to fear microorganisms for people with strong immune systemD. it is better to do some exercise in the morning than have a shower【小题4】The underli ned word “pose” in the third paragraph probably means “______”.A. causeB. avoidC. describeD. promise【小题5】What contributes to fresh air in US subways?A. The train’s movement.B. Iron particles.C. Train wheels.D. Air conditioners on the trains.【答案】【小题1】B【小题2】D【小题3】C【小题4】A【小题5】 A【解析】试题分析:文章介绍Norman R.

Recently I and other Red Cross volunteers met a group of victims from Hurricane Katrina. We were there, as mental health professionals, to offer "psychological first aid" and I was struck by the simple healing power of presence. As we walked in the gate to the shelter, we were greeted with a burst of gratitude (感激) from the first person we met. I felt appreciated, but also guilty, because I hadn’t really done anything yet.I first realized the power of presence many years ago when a friend’s mother passed away unexpectedly. I had received a call saying she had just passed away. I wanted to rush down there immediately, but didn’t want to intrude (打扰) on this very personal period of sadness. I was torn about what to do. Another friend with me then said, "Just go. Just be there."I did, and I will never regret it.Since then, I have not hesitated to be in the presence of others. Once I sat at the bedside of a young man suffering from the pain of his AIDS —related dying. He was not awake, and obviously unaware of others’ presence. However, the atmosphere was by no means solemn. His family, playing guitars and singing, allowed him to be present with them as though he were still fully alive.In my life, I am repeatedly struck by the healing power of presence. In it, none of us are truly alone. It is not only something we give to others but also changes me for the better.1.Why were the hurricane victims grateful to the author?A. He built shelters for them.B. He gave immediate first aid to them.C. He came to stay with them.D. He brought mental health professionals.2.What did the author do when his friend’s mother passed away?A. He hesitated over whether to go.B. He went to his friends’ at once.C. He knew what to do instantly.D. He decided not to disturb.3.What does the underlined word "solemn" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. Heavy but warm.B. A little sad but cosy.C. Relaxing and delightful.D. Very serious and unhappy.4.What has the author learned from his experience?A. A friend in need is a friend indeed.B. Being present can make a big difference.C. The family harmony is the happiest thing in life.D. Being a volunteer can make one’s life more significant.【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。

Mark Twain has been called the inventor of the American novel.And he surely deserves additional praise:the man who popularized the clever literary attack on racism.I say clever because anti­slavery fiction had been the important part of the literature in the years before the Civil War.H.B.Stowe's Uncle Tom's Cabin is only the most famous example.These early stories dealt directly with slavery.With minor exceptions,Twain planted his attacks on slavery and prejudice into tales that were on the surface about something else entirely.He drew his readers into the argument by drawing them into the story.Again and again,in the postwar years,Twain seemed forced to deal with the challenge of race.Consider the most controversial,at least today,of Twain's novels,Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.Only a few books have been kicked off the shelves as often as Huckleberry Finn,Twain's most widely read tale.Once upon a time,people hated the book because it struck them as rude.Twain himself wrote that those who banned the book considered the novel “trash and suitable only for the slums(贫民窟).”More recently the book has been attacked because of the character Jim,the escaped slave,and many occurences of the word nigger.(The term Nigger Jim,for which the novel is often severely criticized,never appears in it.)But the attacks were and are silly—and miss the point.The novel is strongly anti­slavery.Jim's search through the slave states for the family from whom he has been forcibly parted is heroic.As J.Chadwick has pointed out,the character of Jim was a first in American fiction—a recognition that the slave had two personalities,“the voice of survival within a white slave culture and the voice of the individual:Jim,the father and the man.”There is much more.Twain's mystery novel Pudd'nhead Wilson stood as a challenge to the racial beliefs of even many of the liberals of his day.Written at a time when the accepted wisdom held Negroes to be inferior(低等的)to whites,especially in intelligence,Twain's tale centered in part around two babies switched at birth.A slave gave birth to her master's baby and,for fear that the child should be sold South,switched him for the master's baby by his wife.The slave's lightskinned child was taken to be white and grew up with both the attitudes and theeducation of the slave­holding class.The master's wife's baby was taken for black and grew up with the attitudes and intonations of the slave. The point was difficult to miss:nurture(养育),not nature,was the key to social status.The features of the black man that provided the stuff of prejudice—manner of speech,for example—were,to Twain,indicative of nothing other than the conditioning that slavery forced on its victims. Twain's racial tone was not perfect.One is left uneasy,for example,by the lengthy passage in his autobiography(自传)about how much he loved what were called“nigger shows”in his youth—mostly with white men performing in black­face—and his delight in getting his mother to laugh at them.Yet there is no reason to think Twain saw the shows as representing reality.His frequent attacks on slavery and prejudice suggest his keen awareness that they did not.Was Twain a racist?Asking the question in the 21st century is as wise as asking the same of Lincoln.If we read the words and attitudes of the past through the“wisdom”of the considered moral judgments of the present,we will find nothing but error.Lincoln,who believed the black man the inferior of the white,fought and won a war to free him.And Twain,raised in a slave state,briefly a soldier,and inventor of Jim,may have done more to anger the nation over racial injustice and awaken its collective conscience than any other novelist in the past century.【语篇解读】通过研究马克·吐温的作品,来判定他是否是一名种族主义者。

【2013·江西师大附中三模】An older friend once gave me a piece of advice,“Enjoy the last few weeks of college,” she said,“since college is the best time of your life.”This was not the first time I’d he ard such a statement,but with graduation fast coming close,her words especially struck me.It seemed a bit disappointing to reach one’s life peak at only 22 years of age,but in her opinion,college had been one of the best times in my life so far.I made friends,took classes,and learned a great deal about myself.But I was also excited for the time after college—moving to a new city,starting a new job,and becoming a “real” person.I hoped that my great dreams were practical.Then,last week I read a column in Real Simple Magazine called100 Years of Attitude,in which women 100 years or older shared their life experiences and views.I noticed that none of them considered college as the “best” time of their life.Not all of them went to college,but still in most cases their teens and twenties were not the best times of their life.They said some of their favorite times were raising their children,traveling after retirement,and even enjoying their present time and age.Enjoying one’s present time and age was a clear theme of the interviews.A piece of advice given by the women was about the importance of making the best of all situations.I think it more accurate than that of my friend;I can say with certainty that if I am lucky enough to make it to 100.I refuse to spend the last 80 years of my life plummeting (跌落) downhill,or even leveling off.I am sure that our eagerness and devotion will make us college students live a meaningful life.We will not just look backwards or miss our college days.We will look forward in excitement about continued journey uphill.1.Which of the following opinions does the writer agree with?A.College is the best time of one’s life.B.Twenties were the best time of the old people.C.One should make the best of all situations.D.One should not look backwards at their college time.2.In the second paragraph,the writer wants to say________.A.her achievements in college would be the peak of her successB.she is looking forward to living as a “real” person in collegeC.she becomes more and more uneasy with graduationD.she is satisfied with the college life but is hopeful for the future3.The column the wri ter read is mainly about those old women’s________.A.best time of life at youthB.life experiences and viewsC.different opinions about lifeD.favorite time with best friends4.By saying “I ref use to spend the last 80 years of my life plummeting downhill,or even leveling off” (in Paragraph 4),the writer really means________.A.she will not spend the rest of her time at collegeB.she will not just obtain a college level certificateC.she will not be satisfied with what she has already accomplishedD.she will not be content with the life in the future5.Which of the following words can be used to describe the writer?A.Ambitious.

A recent study, while showing a generally positive attitude toward science, also suggests a widespread worry that it may be “running out of control”. This idea is dangerous.Science can be a force for evil as well as for good. Its applications can be channeled either way, depending on our decisions. The decisions we make, personally or collectively, will determine the outcomes of science. But here is a real danger. Science is advancing so fast and is so strongly influenced by businesses that we are likely to believe whatever decisions we come to will make little difference. And, rather than fighting for the best possible policies, we may step back and do nothing. Some people go even further. They say that despite the moral and legal objections(反对), whatever is scientifically possible will be done—somewhere, sometime. They believe that science will get out of control in the end. This belief is dangerous too, because it fuels a sense of hopelessness and discourages then from making efforts to build a safer world.In our interconnected world, the lack of agreement in and out of the world of science can lead to the failure to control the use of science. Without a common understanding, the challenges of “controlling” science in this century will be really tough. Take human cloning for example. Despite the general agreement among scientists on its possible huge impact(影响) on traditional moral values, some countries still go ahead with the research and development of its related techniques. The outcomes are hard to predict.Therefore, discussions on how science is applied should be extended far beyond scientific societies. Only through the united efforts of people with hope, can we be fully safe against the misuse of science and can science best serve mankind in the future.1. What can we conclude from the recent study?A. People think highly of science.B. People hold mixed opinions about science.C. Science is getting dangerously out of control.D. Science is used for both good and bad purposes.2. According to the passage, what will happen if we hold that science is getting beyond control?A. The development of science will hopelessly slow down.B. Businesses will have even greater influence on science.C. The public will lose faith in bringing about a bright future.D. People will work more actively to put science under control.3. The discussion should reach beyond scientific societies because .A. scientists have failed to predict the outcomesB. the ties between different areas need strengtheningC. united efforts are necessary for the development of scienceD. people need to work together to prevent the bad use of science4. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Science and its applications bring us many dangers.B. The development of science mostly lies in people’s attitudes.C. Mankind can largely take control of science with their efforts.D. The future of science will be influenced by the dangerous ideas.【参考答案】1-4 BCDB2016高考英语阅读理解--日常生活类A shopkeeper sent his son to learn about the secret of happiness from the wisest man in the world.The boy walked a long way, and finally came upon the beautiful castle where the wise man lived.On entering the main room of the castle, the boy was quite surprised: tradesmen coming and going, people chatting in the corners, and a small orchestra playing soft music.The wise man talked with everyone, and the boy had to wait for two hours before it was his turn.The wise man listened carefully to the boy’s explanation of why he had come, but told him that he didn’t have time just then to explain the secret of happiness.He suggested that the boy look around the palace and return in two hours.“Meanwhile, I want to ask you to do something,” said the wise man, handing the boy a teaspoon that held two drops of oil.“As you wander around, carry this spoon with you without allowing the oil to spill.”The boy began to walk up and down stairs of the palace, keeping his eyes fixed on the spoon.After two hours, he returned to the wise man.“Well,” asked the wise man, “Did you see the Persian tapestries(挂毯)in the hall? Didyou see the garden that took the master gardener ten years to create?” The boy was embarrassed, and replied that he had observed nothing.His only concern had been not to spill the oil.“Then go back and observe the wonders of my world,” said the wise man.The boy picked up the spoon and returned to his exploration of the palace.This time he observed all of the works of art on the ceilings and the walls.When he returned, he described in detail everything he had seen.“But where are the drops of oil?” asked the wise man.Looking down at the spoon he held, the boy saw that the oil was gone.“Well, there is only one piece of advice I can give you,” said the wise man.“The secret of happiness is to see all the wonders of the world, and never to forget the drops of oil on the spoon.”【小题1】When the boy arrived at the castle, he .A.received a warm welcome from the wise manB.had already missed his chance to talk to the wise manC.was shown around the palace by the local peopleD.didn’t expect to see so many people around【小题2】The wise man gave the boy two tasks in order to .A.show him how to observe the wonders in the worldB.teach him the secret of happinessC.make him learn from his mistakesD.let the boy enjoy his palace and garden【小题3】We can infer from the article that “the drops of the oil on the spoon” probably refer to .A.the beauty of one’s natureB.the fortune a person possessesC.the responsibilities one has to take onD.the great opportunities in life【小题4】What would be the best title for the article?A.Lesson about HappinessB.The Secret of HappinessC.Learning about HappinessD.Searching for Happiness【吉林省吉林市2014质量检测】CFive years ago, David Smith wore an expensive suit to work every day. “I was a clothes addict.” he jokes. “I used to carry a fresh suit to work with me so I could change if my clothes go t wrinkled.” Today David wears casual clothes—khaki pants and a sports shirt—to the office. He hardly ever wears a necktie. “I am working harder than ever.” David says, “and I need to feel comfortable.”More and more companies are allowing their office workers to wear casual clothes to work. In the United States, the change from formal to casual office wear has been gradual. In the early 1990s, many companies allowed their employees to wear casual clothes on Friday(but only on Friday). This became known as “dress-down Friday” or “casual Friday”. “What started out as an extra one-day-a-week benefit for employees has really become an everyday thing.” said business consultant Maisly Jones.Why have so many companies started allowing their employees to wear casual clothes? One reason is that it’s easier for a company to attract new employees if it has a casual dress code.” “A lot of young people don’t want to dress up for work,” says the owner of a software company, “so it’s hard to hire people if you have a conservative(保守的)dress code.” Another reason is that people seem happier and more productive when they are wearing comfortable clothes. In a study conducted by Levi Strauss and Company, 85 percent of employers said that they believe that casual dress improves employee morale(心境,士气). Only 4 percent of employers said that casual dress has a negative influence on productivity. Supporters of casual office wear also argue that a casual dress code helps them save money. “Suits are expen sive, if you have to wear one every day,” one person said. “For the same amount of money, you can buy a lot more casual clothes.”21.David Smith ref ers to himself as having been “a clothes addict,” because ________.A. he often wore khaki pants and a sports shirtB. he couldn’t stand a clean appearanceC. he wanted his clothes to look neat all the timeD. he didn’t want to spend much money on clothes22.David Smith wears casual clothes now, because__________.A. they make him feel at ease when workingB. he cannot afford to buy expensive clothesC. he looks handsome in casual clothesD. he no longer works for any company23.In this passage, the following advantages of casual office wear are mentioned EXCEPT__________.A. saving employees’ moneyB. making employees more attractiveC. improving employees’ motivationD. making employees happier21.C. 细节理解题。

We've all heard the old saying,“Sticks and stones can break my bones,but words can never hurt me.” Don't you believe it?Words are powerful,and they can hurt—a lot. In fact,if you're not careful,you can even hurt yourself,by using the wrong word in your writing.Recently a fr iend sent me a copy of an e­mail she received from the customer service department of her credit card company,after she contacted them with a question about her account. She was happy with their positive response. But as I read the e­mail,one line jumped out at me:“In lieu of good customer service...”Did they really mean they were offering her a few extra reward points instead of good customer service?I doubt it. More likely,what the customer service department meant to say was,“Because good customer service is important to us...” followed by the details of what they were doing to make sure she remained a happy customer.So why didn't the writer say that?I can only guess that perhaps the writer liked the phrase “in lieu of”,thought it sounded more interesting than saying “because”,and so used it—without bothering to check the true meaning.Have you ever done that?Try to impress others with a big word,only to find out you've used the word incorrectly?It's just the opposite effect,isn't it?You may impress people all right,but it's not the impression you were going for.When you write,remember to choose your words carefully. People may still disagree with what you say,but they won't be able to dismiss you because you made careless mistakes in how you said it.1.What's the writer's purpose in giving the saying?A.To amuse the reader. B.To persuade the reader.C.To support a conclusion. D.To lead to the topic.2.It can be inferred that the writer's friend ______.A.was the manager of the customer service departmentB.was the customer of the credit card companyC.emailed a company to complain D.used a phrase incorrectly3.What does the phrase “in lieu of” most probably mean?A.Because of. B.In honour of.C.Instead of.

These days, friends and family have begun flooding me with one question: What is she going to do after graduation?The job market is, after all, awfully tough. Just this month the Federal Reserve Bank published a study showing that “recent graduates are increasingly working in low-paid jobs or working part-time.” The brig ht spot, according to the study, is for students who majored(主修) in STEM — science, technology, engineering and mathematics —areas in which recent graduates “have tended to do relatively well”.But Emma is a student of the humanities(人文) at a small colle ge. She’s an American Studies major with a focus on the politics and culture of food. For quite a while, I think her field of study is so fashionable right now that I’m not the least bit worried she will find a good job.Yetthe more I’ve thought about it,the more I’ve decided to be honest. “I’m not sure what Emma is going to do,” I now say. “But she’s gotten a great education and has really found her interest. —and I know those things will serve her well over the course of her life.”Nowadays, more and more universities and colleges are being measured by the salaries of their recent graduates. In this climate, encouraging your kid to study the humanities, seems, at best, unwise or, at worst, unconcerned with earning a living. But a college is not a vocational(职业) school. And promoting STEM subjects should not be society’s only answer to helping the next generation grow in a competitive world.From the beginning, we never urged Emma to pick a college or a major with an eye on its expected return on money, as more and more families are doing. To Emma, what really matters will be something that we may not be able to measure for quite a long time: Emma’s contribution to the world and how happy she is in it.25. The author’s friends and familyA. are worried about Emma’s safetyB. have been worrying about the floodC. are concerned about Emma’s futureD. are worried about the job market26. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?A. The number of the graduates is increasing.B. STEM graduates can be better employees.C. STEM graduates are in relatively greater demand.D. More and more graduates like to do a part-time job.27. Why did Emma choose a major in the humanities?A. Because she is interested in it.B. Because her mother told her to.C. Because it is increasingly popular.D. Because she wants further education.28. According to the author, what matters most in choosing a major is that_________.A. it should be among the STEMB. it should be fashionable and interestingC. it should allow a good job and a high salaryD. it should bring achievements and happiness【参考答案】25---28 CCAD【河北省邯郸市2014一模试题】CRecently a study, led by Pedro Hallal of the Federal University, suggests that nearly a third of adults, 31%, are not getting enough exercise. That rates of exercise have declined is hardly a new discovery. Since the beginning of the industrial revolution, technology and economic growth have helped to create a world in which taking exercise is more and more an option rather than a necessity. But only recently have enough good data been collected from enough places to carry out the sort of analysis Dr Hallal and his colleagues have engaged in.There are common themes in different places. Unsurprisingly, people in rich countries are less active than those in poor ones, and old people are less active than young ones. Less obviously, women tend to exercise less than men—34% are inactive, compared with 28% of men. But there are exceptions. The women of Croatia, Finland, Iraq and Luxembourg, for example, move more than their male countrymen.Malta wins the race for most slothful country, with 72% of adults getting too little exercise, and Swaziland and Saudi Arabia are in close behind, with 69%. In Bangladesh, just 5% of adults fail to exercise enough. Surprisingly, six Americans in ten are active enough according to Dr Hallal’s study, compared with fewer than four in ten British.These high rates of inactivity are worrying. Human beings seem to have evolved(进化) to benefit from exercise while deliberately avoiding it whenever they can. In a state of nature it would be impossible to live a life that did not provide enough of it. But that is no longer the case.

必修③ Unit 3 单元主题语篇训练Ⅰ.阅读理解AI started reading Shakespeare when I was nine, after my grandfather, an actor, sent me a copy of RomeoandJuliet.The story and the language attracted me.I found out about Shakespeare Globe Centre New Zealand (SGCNZ) and started volunteering for it when I was about 10.When I was 13, I managed to run a film project with SGCNZ.I'm home­educated and a part­time correspondence student (函授生) as well.We have a drama group made up of quite a few people who are also home­educated.I've al so joined Wellington Young Actors, a youth theatre company.There are many similarities and differences between being home­educated and attending a five­day program.I love hearing other students' reactions when meeting them and share my different ways of experiencing the world with them.While explaining the way I learn can be a challenge, I love helping people to understand there isn't just one way of learning.Being home­educated has offered me the freedom to have an individualized education and to pursue my passions.My education has always been about making those focuses but I do lots of the same things as people who attend five­day programs do.Shakespeare is a great approach to lots of things around English, history and the arts.I think something you learn when you perform is connection.You have to have a connection with your fellow actors, with the audience and with Shakespeare.I learn this from actually being on stage and from taking part in different Shakespeare festival programs.I believe it's the emotion in Shakespeare that makes it relevant today.You can be reading something that was written 400 years ago and be able to see parts of your life in the work as it shows you how to understand the world and explore a lot of different ideas.语篇解读:我喜欢莎士比亚的作品,它们让我学会用不同的方式理解这个世界,并懂得如何更好地与人相处。

After years of study,I have known there are only two types of people in this world:those who get to the airport early and those who arrive as the plane is about to take off.If there were any justice in this world,the early­airport people would be rewarded for doing the right thing and the late­airport people would be punished.But the early­airport people get ulcers(溃疡),heart attacks and bite their finger­nails to the bone (急得团团转).The late­airport people are hardly aware that they are flying.A guy of that kind once said,“Don’t hurry.If you miss your flight,it’s because God didn’t want you to go.”This is clearly a guy who is never going to get an ulcer.Early­airport people suffer another“name”.They are called exactly what they are—wimps(懦夫).I know I am an early­airport person for years.My luggage will get on the plane first,which makes it the last luggage they take off the plane after landing.Another strange thing:No matter how early I showed up,I was always told that someone had called two or three years ahead of me and asked for the best seat.I figured it was a trick.I figured there was someone in America who called every airline every day and said,“Is that wimp Simon flying somewhere today?If he is,give me his seat.”After a lifetime arguing with my wife over whether I really have to pack 24 hours in advance and set the alarm clock four hours ahead,I have learned another fact about early­airport people and late­airport people:They always marry each other.1.We can learn from the passage that________.A.late­airport persons often get ulcers or heart attacksB.early­airport persons are always relaxed during the flightC.early­airport persons get their luggage first after landingD.late­airport persons always take things easy解析:细节理解题。

【2013·江西师大附中三模】An older friend once gave me a piece of advice,“Enjoy the last few weeks of college,” she said,“since college is the best time of your life.”This was not the first time I’d he ard such a statement,but with graduation fast coming close,her words especially struck me.It seemed a bit disappointing to reach one’s life peak at only 22 years of age,but in her opinion,college had been one of the best times in my life so far.I made friends,took classes,and learned a great deal about myself.But I was also excited for the time after college—moving to a new city,starting a new job,and becoming a “real” person.I hoped that my great dreams were practical.Then,last week I read a column in Real Simple Magazine called100 Years of Attitude,in which women 100 years or older shared their life experiences and views.I noticed that none of them considered college as the “best” time of their life.Not all of them went to college,but still in most cases their teens and twenties were not the best times of their life.They said some of their favorite times were raising their children,traveling after retirement,and even enjoying their present time and age.Enjoying one’s present time and age was a clear theme of the interviews.A piece of advice given by the women was about the importance of making the best of all situations.I think it more accurate than that of my friend;I can say with certainty that if I am lucky enough to make it to 100.I refuse to spend the last 80 years of my life plummeting (跌落) downhill,or even leveling off.I am sure that our eagerness and devotion will make us college students live a meaningful life.We will not just look backwards or miss our college days.We will look forward in excitement about continued journey uphill.1.Which of the following opinions does the writer agree with?A.College is the best time of one’s life.B.Twenties were the best time of the old people.C.One should make the best of all situations.D.One should not look backwards at their college time.2.In the second paragraph,the writer wants to say________.A.her achievements in college would be the peak of her successB.she is looking forward to living as a “real” person in collegeC.she becomes more and more uneasy with graduationD.she is satisfied with the college life but is hopeful for the future3.The column the wri ter read is mainly about those old women’s________.A.best time of life at youthB.life experiences and viewsC.different opinions about lifeD.favorite time with best friends4.By saying “I ref use to spend the last 80 years of my life plummeting downhill,or even leveling off” (in Paragraph 4),the writer really means________.A.she will not spend the rest of her time at collegeB.she will not just obtain a college level certificateC.she will not be satisfied with what she has already accomplishedD.she will not be content with the life in the future5.Which of the following words can be used to describe the writer?A.Ambitious. B.Practical.C.Imaginative. D.Proud.语篇解读本文是一篇议论文。

答案: ACAs thousands of communities in the USA —especially in the South — became booming gatewaysfor immigrant families from Central and South America during the 1990s and the early years of the new century, public schools struggled with the unfamiliar task of serving the large numbers of English learners arriving in their classrooms.Education programs needed to be built from scratch. “We had no teaching resources suitable fo r English learners here before. We had to develop them all ourselves,” a Texas principal said. Throughout the country, districts had to train their own teachers to teach English to non-native speakers or recruit teachers from elsewhere. School staff members had to figure out how to communicate with parents who spoke no English.But even as immigration has slowed or stopped in many places, and instructional programs for English-learners have matured, serving immigrant families and their children remains a work in progress in many public schools, especially those in communities that are skeptical, or sometimes unwelcoming, to the newcomers. One of the biggest challenges educators face, is communicating effectively with parents who don’t speak English — an issue that, in part, has contributed to recent complaints of discrimination by Latino students in some cities.“The parents’ role is very important for the success of these students, but it's also one of the most difficult things we’ve had to tackle,” said Jim D. Rollins, the president of the Springdale school district, where the 19,000-student school system has gone from having no English-learners 15 years ago to more than 7,500 now. “You have to make it a priority and work on it, work on it, and work on it.”Aside from the practical challenges, such as finding bilingual (会说两种语言的) staff members, guiding districts through such dramatic changes requires school leaders to bridge difficult political and cultural divides. For school leaders in the South, especially in the last few years, this difficult job has been made harder still by the negative attitudes of some locals towards immigrants.36. According to the passage, what is the problem that public schools are facing?A. Handling more cases from the immigrant Mexican communities.B. Offering services to immigrant families in the southern states.C. Offering enough communicative lessons to immigrant parents.D. Providing education for non-native English learners.【答案】D【解析】细节理解题。
