一轮复习高考英语阅读理解训练经典题目(附答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解Babies born in summer are more likely to become short-sighted in late life, a study has shown. As many as a quarter of all cases of short-sightedness are caused by too great an exposure to sunlight in the first weeks of life, say eye experts.They are advising all parents to put sunglasses on their babies during the first weeks. Scientists had already established that over-exposure to sunlight caused shortsightedness in animals.Researchers who compared the months in which babies were born with whether they needed glasses later on say the principle also applies to humans.A study of almost 300, 000 young adults-the largest of its kind-showed that those born in June and July had a 25 per cent greater chance of becoming severely short-sighted than those born in December or January.Research leader Professor Michael Belkin, of Tel Aviv University, said it was because prolonged illumination(光照) causes the eyeball to lengthen-causing short-sightedness.Hence the more light a newborn is exposed to, the more the eyeball lengthens and the worse the short-sightedness will be.The mechanism which lengthens the eyeball is associated with levels of melatonin(褪黑激素), a pigment (色素) which protects the skin against harmful rays of the sun.In young babies not enough melatonin is released as protection, meaning they are more vulnerable to sunburn and changes to eyeball shape.Sight expert Professor Daniel O'Leary, of Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge, said "At the moment we don't know the precise cause of why light exposure affects sight, but the evidence seems to prove that it is one of the reasons for people becoming shortsighted."(1)Babies born in summer are more likely to be shortsighted ____________.A. because the summer sun is too strong for babiesB. because babies born in summer have lengthened eyeballsC. if they are exposed too much sunlight in the first weeks after they are born D if parents don't know a proper way to protect their babies' eyes(2)Melatonin is a kind of material to ___________.A. prevent the eyes from becoming near-sightedB. protect the skin from harmful sun raysC. make our body strongD. protect babies' eyes from summer sun(3)From what Professor Daniel O'Leary says we can conclude that ___________.A. there is no evidence that shortsightedness is related to exposure to sunlightB. whether light exposure affects sight still needs to be further provedC. he believes that light exposure can cause shortsightednessD. he tries to give the cause of why light exposure affects sight(4)The underlined word "vulnerable" in the passage probably means __________.A. easy to be harmedB. resistantC. protectiveD. changeable【答案】(1)C(2)B(3)C(4)A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,研究表明在夏季出生的婴儿长大后更容易成为近视眼,眼科专家称多达四分之一的近视眼病例是由于在出生后前几周里暴露阳光太久造成。

( A )When I first heard about geocaching (地理寻宝),I was skeptical.But the more I thought about it,the more it seemed like an interesting idea.I at least wanted to try it once.Having familiarized myself with how the game works,I set out in search of my first cache.My trip took me through a series of lively hutong (胡同),past a number of small temples,and right into the courtyard of a quiet youth hotel.I spent several minutes looking around,but couldn’t find anything.Just before I was about to give up,I spotted a colorful object in the crack of a wall.Could it be the hidden cache?At that moment a group of backpackers arrived.According to the game’s rules,people who are not in the game must not be allowed to find out about secret caches.So I pretended to make a phone call while waiting for them to leave.When the coast was clear,I grabbed the object.It was the cache! I opened it and pulled out a crumpled (皱的) sheet of paper with several names and celebratory messages written on it.I added my own and replaced the cache in its hiding place,ready for the next geocacher to find.It may seem like a simple game,but the idea that there arecaches hidden all around us is exciting.Once you’re hooked,it’s easy to set yourself the goal of finding every single cache in a neighborhood or even an entire city.The real treasure,however,is not the cache itself,but the places it takes you to.Hunting for further caches has since introduced me to places which I didn’t even know existed.Some are peaceful parks,while others are forgotten historical sites.A few caches have even been in places I passed regularly without giving them any thought.Now,I feel a much closer connection.21.What was the author’s initial attitude to geocaching?( )A.He thought it interesting.B.He wanted to try it at once.C.He showed little interest in it.D.He found it unsuitable for him.22.Where did the author find the cache?( )A.In a hutong.B.In a temple.C.In a well.D.In a hotel.23.When a group of backpackers were approaching,the author .A.pretended to be cleaning the yardB.made a call to other geocachersC.didn’t allow them to come inD.tried to keep the cache secret24.In what way does the author benefit from geocaching?( )A.He has found much treasure.B.He’s more familiar with the city.C.He has made more friends.D.He has mastered hunting.( B )City College Union IncSecretary/TypistThe Union is a student-run organization with a permanent staff of 20.Typing speed:at least 60

flying28.If you want to be a sewing machine operator,you may contact this company by .A.phoneB.emailC.visitD.fax( C )It’s true that quite a few most respected scientificauthorities have confirmed that the world is becoming hotter and hotter.There’s also strong evidence that humans are contributing to the warming.Countless recent reports have proved the same thing.For instance,a 2019 summary about the climate science by the Royal Society noted that:“The global warming over the last half-century has been caused mainly by human activity.”You may not believe that humans could change the planet’s climate,but the basic science is well understood.Each year,billions of tons of greenhouse gases are released into the atmosphere because of human activity.As has been known for years,these gases hold heat that would otherwise escape to space,wrapping the planet in an invisible (看不见的)blanket.Of course,the earth’s climate has always been changing due to“natural”factors such as volcanic eruption or changes in solar,or cycles concerning the Earth’s going around the sun.According to the scientific research,however,the warming observed by now matches the pattern of warming we would expect from a build-up of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere—not the warming we would expect from other possible causes.Even if scientists did discover another reasonable explanation for the warming recorded so far,that would give birth to a difficult question.As Robert Henson puts it:“If some newly discovered factor is to blame for the climate change,then why aren’t carbon dioxide and the other greenhouse gases producing the warming that basic physics tells us they should be?” The only way to prove with 100% certainty that humans are responsible for global warming would be to run an experiment with two identical Earths—one with human influence and one without.That obviously isn’t possible,and so most scientists arecareful not to state human influence as an absolute certainty.29.In most scientists’ opinion,the global warming is mainly caused by .A.solar activityB.volcanic activityC.natural factorsD.human factors30.The text is developed by .A.giving typical examplesB.following the order of spaceC.analyzing a theory and arguing it/doc/a010248581.html,paring and finding differences31.The underlined word “identical” in the last paragraph probably means “”.A.totally differentB.exactly the sameC.extremely importantD.partly independent32.Which of the following can be the best title?A.Are All the Scientists Really Scientific?B.Where Is Global Warming Leading Us to?C.Are Humans Definitely Causing Global Warming?D.What’s the Relation of Global Warming and Greenhouse Gases?( D )BEIJING,(Xinhua)—China’s capital city launched its first underground library,“M Subway Library” on

Unit 1 Friendship李仕才***阅读理解Pollution's serious effects on the environment have bee more obvious in recent years.Most scientists agree that efforts are necessary to protect our environment from further harm.As we know,the construction industry consumes a large quantity of energy and resources and creates a huge amount of pollution.So green buildings are in great need.The environmental benefits of green buildings include the protection of ecosystems and biodiversity(生物多样性),improved air and water quality,less waste flowing into streams and the protection of natural resources.Green buildings can also result in lower operating costs because they typically use less energy and fewer materials and improve indoor air quality,improving the health of people who live there.The process of building green houses includes technical and artistic planning with nature protection in mind.Building designs often reflect the surrounding environment and natural resources and use renewable building materials such as bamboo and straw.In addition,recycled resources found locally are used for green buildings,reducing the cost and air pollution associated with transporting materials long distances.Careful site selection is important to minimize(使减少到最低限度)human effects on the surrounding environment.For example,placing a structure in an area that allows it to take advantage of cool breezes(微风)and sunlight can reduce energy use and expenses.More energy and expenses are needed for larger buildings as well,so it is important to build the small ones.Green roofs are another feature of green houses that reduce energy use and costs.These roofs are partially or pletely covered with plants,which helps to keep heating and cooling costs low,prevent water running off and deal with pollutants.Other features of green buildings often include energy and water protection,recycling and waste reduction.In addition, renewable energy sources such as solar power,waterpower and wind power are used for heat and electricity,which greatly reduces costs and decreases the influence on the environment.1.What can we know about green buildings?A.Producing no waste.B.Only using clean energy.C.Being made of new materials.D.Being environment­friendly.2.What is a green building probably like according to the fifth paragraph?A.Large. B.Small.C.Green. D.Low.3.What is the purpose of using green roofs?A.To fit the environment.B.To keep warm.C.To collect nature water.D.To reduce costs.4.What is the text mainly about?A.Promoting energy efficiency.B.Environmental benefits.C.Green buildings.D.Ecosystems and biodiversity.【解题导语】本文主要介绍了绿色建筑的优势和特色。

2020年高考英语 三轮冲刺练习 阅读理解 一(15篇含答案解析)

2020年高考英语三轮冲刺练习阅读理解一A1. “Have a nice day!”may be a pleasant gesture or a meaningless expression.When my friend Maxie says “Have a nice day”with a smile,I know she sincerely cares about what happens to me.I feel loved and secure since another person cares about me and wishes me well.“Have a nice day.Next!”This version of the expression is spoken by a salesgirl at the supermarket who is rushing me and my groceries out the door.The words come out in the same tone(腔调)with a fixed procedure.They are spoken at me,not to me.Obviously,the concern for my day and everyone else’s is the management’s attempt to increase business.The expression is one of those behaviors that help people get along with each other.Sometimes it indicates the end of a meeting.As soon as you hear it,you know the meeting is at an end.Sometimes the expression saves us when we don’t know what to say.“Oh, you just had a tooth out? I’m terribly sorry, but have a nice day.”The expression can be pleasant.If a stranger says“Have a nice day”to you, you may find it heart-warming because someone you don’t know has tried to be nice to you.Although the use of the expression is an insincere,meaningless social custom at times,there is nothing wrong with the sentence except that it is a little uninteresting.The salesgirl,the waitress,the teacher,and all the countless others who speak it without thinking may not really care about my day.But in a strange and comfortable way,it’s nice to know they care enough to pretend they care when they really don’t care all that much.While the expression may not often be sincere,it is always spoken.The point is that people say it all the time when they like.(1)How does the author understand Maxie’s words?A.Maxie shows her anxiety to the author.B.Maxie really wishes the author a good day.C.Maxie encourages the author to stay happy.D.Maxie really worries about the author’s security.(2)What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean?A.The salesgirl is rude.B.The salesgirl is bored.C.The salesgirl cares about me.D.The salesgirl says the words as a routine.(3)By saying “Have a nice day”,a stranger may .A.try to be polite to youB.express respect to youC.give his blessing to youD.share his pleasure with you(4)According to the last paragraph,people say “Have a nice day” .A.sincerelyB.as thanksC.as a habitD.encouragingly(5)What is the best title of the passage?A.Have a Nice Day—a Social CustomB.Have a Nice Day—a Pleasant GestureC.Have a Nice Day—a Heart-warming GreetingD.Have a Nice Day—a Polite Ending of a ConversationB2.In 1978, I was 18 and was working as a nurse in a small town about 270 km away from Sydney, Australia. I was looking forward to having five days off from duty.Unfortunately, the only one train a day back to my home in Sydney had already left.So I thought I’d hitch a ride(搭便车).I waited by the side of the highway for three hours but no one stopped for me. Finally,a man walked over and introduced himself as Gordon. He said that although he couldn’t give me a lift, I should come back to his house for lunch. He noticed me standing for hours in the November heat and thought I must be hungry. I was doubtful as a young girl but he assured(使……放心)me I was safe, and he also offered to help me find a lift home afterwards. When we arrived at his house, he made us sandwiches.After lunch, he helped me find a lift home.Twenty-five years later, in 2003, while I was driving to a nearby town one day,I saw an elderly man standing in the glaring heat, trying to hitch a ride. I thoughtit was another chance to repay someone for the favour I’d been given decades earlier. I pulled over and picked him up. I made him comfortable on the back seat and offered him some water.After a few moments of small talk, the man said to me, “You haven’t changed a bit, even your red hair is still the same. ”I couldn’t remember where I’d met him. He then told me he was the man who hadgiven me lunch and helped me find a lift all those years ago.

You may think that sailing is a difficult sport, but it is really not hard to learn it. You do not need to be strong. But you need to be quick. And you need to understand a few basic rules about the wind.First, you must ask yourself,“Where is the wind coming from?Is it coming from ahead or behind or from the side?” You must think about this all the time on the boat.The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail.Let’s start with the wind blowing from behind. This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction. Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat. It should be at a 90° angle(角度) to the boat. Then it will catch the wind best.If the wind is blowing from the side, it is blowing across the boat. In this case, you must keep the sail half way outside the boat. It should be at a 45° angle to the boat. It needs to be out far enough to catch the wind, but it shouldn’t flap(摆动). It shouldn’t look like a flag on a flagpole. If it is flapping,it is probably out too far, and the boat will slow down.Sailing into the wind is not possible. If you try, the sail will flap and the boat will stop. You may want to go in that direction. It is possible, but you can’t go in a straight line. You must go first in one direction and then in another. This is called tacking. When you are tacking, you must always keep the sail inside the boat.(1)What should you consider first while sailing?A. Sailors’ strength.B. Wave levels.C. Wind directions.D. Size of sails.(2)What does the word “It” underlined in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. The boat.B. The wind.C. The sail.D. The angle.(3)What do you have to do when sailing against the wind?A. Move in a straight line.B. Allow the sail to flap.C. Lower the sail.D.Tack the boat.(4) Where can you probably find the text?A. In a popular magazine.B. In a tourist guidebook.C.In a physics textbook.D. In an official report.G7.The practice of students endlessly copying letters and sentences from a blackboard is a thing of the past. With the coming of new technologies like computers and smartphones, writing by hand has become something of a nostalgic(怀旧的) skill.However, while today’s educators are using more and more technology in their teaching, many believe basic handwriting skills are still necessary for students to be successful—both in school and in life.Virginia Berninger, professor of educational psychology at the University of Washington, says it’s important to continue teaching handwriting and help children acquire the skill of writing by hand.Berninger and her colleagues conducted a study that looked at the ability of students to complete various writing tasks—both on a computer and by hand. The study, published in 2009, found that when writing with a pen and paper, participants wrote longer essays and more complete sentences and had a faster word production rate.In a more recent study, Berninger looked at what role spelling plays in a student’s writing skills and found that how well children spell is tied to how well they can write. “Spelling makes some of the thinking parts of the brain active, which helps us access our vocabulary, word meaning and concepts. It is allowing our written language to connect with ideas.” Berninger said.Spelling helps students translate ideas into words in their mind first and then to transcribe(转换) “those words in the mind into written symbols on paper or keyboard and screen,” the study said. Seeing the words in the “mind’s eye” helps children not only to turn their ideas into words, says Berninger, but also to spot(发现) spelling mistakes when they write the words down and to correct them over time.“In our computer age, some people believe that we don’t have to teach spelling because we have spell checks,” she said. “But until a child has a functional spelling ability of about a fifth grade level, they won’t have the knowledge to choose the correct spelling among the options given by the computer.”(1)What makes writing by hand a thing of the past?A. The absence of blackboards in classrooms.B. The use of new technologies in teaching.C. The lack of practice in handwriting.D. The popular use of smartphones.(2)Berninger’s study published in 2009 .A.focused on the difference between writing by hand and on a computerB.indicated that students prefer to write with a pen and paperC.found that good essays are made up of long sentencesD.discussed the importance of writing speed(3)Which of the following best shows the role of spelling?A.Spelling improves one’s memory of words.B.Spelling ability is closely related to writing ability.C.Spelling benefits the translation from words into ideas.D.Spelling slows down finding exact words to express ideas.(4)What does “mind’s eye” in Paragraph 5 mean?A. Window.B. Soul.C. Picture.D. Imagination.(5)What conclusion could be drawn from the passage?puters can help people with their choice of words.B.Spell checks can take the place of spelling teaching.C.Handwriting still has a place in today’s classrooms.D.Functional spelling ability develops fast in the fifth grade.H8.At exactly eleven Sir Percival knocked and entered, with anxiety and worry in every line of his face. This meeting would decide his future life, and he obviously knew it.“You may wonder, Sir Percival,” said Laura calmly,“if I am going to ask to be released (免除) from my promise to marry you. I am not going to ask this. I respect my father’s wishes too much.”His face relaxed a little, but one of his feet kept beating the carpet.“No, if we are going to withdraw(退出)from our planned marriage, it will be because of your wish, not mine.”“Mine?”he said in great surprise.“What reason could I have for withdrawing?”“A reason that is very hard to tell you,”she answered. “There is a change in me.”His face went so pale that even his lips lost their color. He turned his head to one side.“What change?” he asked, trying to appear calm.“When the promise was made two years ago,”she said,“my love did not belong to anyone. Will you forgive me, Sir Percival, if I tell you that it now belongs to another person?”“I wish you to understand,” Laura continued,“that I will never see this person again, and that if you leave me, you only allow me to remain a single woman for the rest of my life. All I ask is that you forgive me and keep my secret.”“I will do both those things,” he said. Then he looked at Laura, as if he was waiting to hear more.“I think I have said enough to give you reason to withdraw from our marriage,”she added quietly.“No. You have said enough to make it the dearest wish of my life to marry you,”hesaid.(1)How did Percival feel during his meeting with Laura?A.Angry.B.Calm.C.Nervous.D.Excited.(2)We can learn from the passage that .ura had once promised to marry Percivalura’s father wished to end her marriageC.Percival had been married to Laura for two yearsD.Percival asked to be released from the marriage(3)The passage is probably taken out of .A.a novelB.a reportC.a diaryD.an essayI9. If you could have one superpower,what would it be? Dreaming about whether you would want to read minds,see through walls,or have superhuman strength may sound silly,but it actually gets to the heart of what really matters in your life. Every day in our work,we are inspired by the people we meet doing extraordinary things to improve the world. They have a different kind of superpower that all of us possess:the power to make a difference in the lives of others. We’re not saying that everyone needs to contribute their lives to the poor.Your lives are busy enough doing homework,playing sports,making friends,seeking after your dreams.But we do think that you can live a more powerful life when you devote some of your time and energy to something much larger than yourself.Find an issue you are interested in and learn more.Volunteer or,if you can,contribute a little money to a cause.Whatever you do,don’t be a bystander.Get involved.You may have the opportunity to make your biggest difference when you’re older.But why not start now? Our own experience working together on health,development,and energy the last twenty years has been one of themost rewarding parts of our lives.It has changed who we are and continues to fuel our optimism about how much the lives of the poorest people will improve in the years ahead.(1)What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.Your life style.B.Your life value.C.Your trouble in life.D.Your life experience.(2)Why does the author say they are inspired every day?A.They possess different kinds of superpowers.B.They have got the power to change the world.C.Some people around them are making the world better.D.There are many powerful people in their life and work.(3)What does the author stress in Paragraph 5?A.Learning more and contributing more to a cause.B.Rising above self and acting to help others.C.Working hard to get a bigger opportunity.D.Trying your best to help the poor.(4)What can be inferred from the last paragraph?A.The author believes the lives of the poorest will get better.B.Much more progress will be made in the near future.C.The work on health is the most valuable experience.D.People’s efforts have been materially rewarded.J10.Holidays are really important. Many of us will have childhood memories of summer holidays where we were taken away from home to experience new environments and learn in different ways.But holidays are expensive and, for those on low wages or living on benefits, they are often unobtainable. Even the cheapest holidays require travel and other additional costs that are difficult for many families to meet.For working parents, the long summer break can be a very difficult problem for childcare. When an annual leave allowance amounts to only five weeks, there is a need to spread this across the year. Couples can find themselves taking leave in turn in order to care for children who are on holiday. For some, this makes even an affordable family holiday difficult.The schools that I visit in Nottingham are full of experienced staff committed to giving our children a caring and inspiring learning environment. The number of children receiving free school meals is quite large in Nottingham and many schools have breakfast clubs to make sure that children get a healthy start to the day.Most schools undertake programs of group or individual educational support. Schools also have an important role in safeguarding children’s welfare through the ongoing touch and support with their pupils. During the long summer holidays, much of this is missed.While teachers are holidaying in the UK, many of their pupils spend the whole six weeks on the street where they live. The lack of free school meals for six weeks can result in pressure on a family budget and an inability to afford the inspiring experiences that help children to continue their learning.In setting out its plans for a five-term year, Nottingham City Council(委员会) is seeking to reduce the summer holiday down to four and a half weeks, with a more balanced five terms of roughly eight weeks, each followed by a two-week break. We believe this will give real“down time” for school staff and pupils alike but will be short enough not to cause a real break in learning.We acknowledge that this change may be difficult for some school staff, particularly whose own children are educated in other authorities. However, this must be weighedagainst the benefits for city children for whom we all have the greatest duty of care.(1)The passage is probably written by .A.an experienced teacherB.a working parentC.an inspired studentD.a city council member(2)The underlined word “they” in the second paragraph refers to“ ”.A.environmentsB.holidaysC.wagesD.benefits(3)It is suggested in the passage that the summer break be reduced to .A.2 weeksB.4.5 weeksC.5 weeksD.6 weeks(4)The plans for a shorter summer holiday will help students .A.obtain the cheapest holidays without additional costsB.get a chance to spend six weeks a term with teachers in schoolC.benefit more from the caring and inspiring learning environmentD.have more school days to receive free school meals(5)It can be inferred from the passage that .A.working parents can enjoy a five-week break to care for their childrenB.the suggested plans for a five-term school year can hardly be carried outC.the long summer holiday gives teachers and students real “down time”D.some school staff will say “No” to the plans for a shorter summer holidayK11.Ask people in the UK what the words “Sunday roast” mean to them, and they’ll probably take you back to their grandmothers’ dining rooms – maybe with a few stories of “the greatest puddings” and “the best ever steak”. But now the traditional Sunday roast seems to have been left back in the old days. According to the Daily Mail, just one in 50 British families sits down to this weekly meal together.There are many reasons why the roast is becoming less popular. In the busy modern world, where breakfast is a slice of toast eaten on the way to work or school and lunch is a quick sandwich in front of the computer screen, people just don’t seem to have the time or patience to make a roast.And Sunday was once a day when people could easily go to the kitchen to cook.Nowadays, people are often out shopping or at the cinema until it’s far too late to start thinking about heating the oven(烤箱) up.However, a recent article from The Telegraph warned against being carried away by our tight schedules: “It would be a shame to let this fine old tradition disappear.”The Guardian further explained that the eating of the big meal is only the half of it .The Sunday roast also makes for relaxed morning activities in the kitchen, and the table becomes the perfect place to share good food and chat with familyand friends. “For busy moms and dads, even if you can manage to turn off your mobile phone and the TV only once a week and turn the Sunday roast into a real family event, children can have fun cooking the food and clearing up together.”(1)The best title for the passage is probably _____.A.Sunday—Best Time for FamilyB.Sunday Roast Dying OutC.It’s the Perfect Time for UsD.Let’s Sit Down Together(2)Why do people pay less attention to Sunday roast?A.They have a busy lifestyle.B.They have no interest in cooking.C.They don’t think it worthwhile.D.They are living in the modern society.(3)What does the underlined word “it” in the last paragraph refer to?A.A recent article.B.A traditional kitchen.C.The fine old tradition.D.Sunday morning activity.(4)How does the author feel towards Sunday roast’s dying out?A.Doubtful.B.Positive.C.Sorry.D.Uncertain.L12.Most damagingly, anger weakens a person’s ability to think clearly and keep control over his behaviour.The angry person loses objectivity in evaluating the emotional significance of the person or situation that arouses his anger.Not everyone experiences anger in the same way;what angers one person may amuse another.The specific expression of anger also differs from person to person based on biological and cultural forces.In contemporary culture,physical expressions of anger are generally considered too socially harmful to be tolerated.We no longer regardduels(决斗)as an appropriate expression of anger resulting from one person’s awareness of insulting behaviour on the part of another.Anger can be identified in the brain,where the electrical activity changes.Under most conditions EEG(脑电图)measures of electrical activity show balanced activity between the right and left prefrontal(额叶前部)areas.Behaviourally thiscorresponds to the general even-handed disposition(意向)that most of us possess most of the time.But when we are angry the EEG of the right and left prefrontal areas aren’t balanced and,as a result of this,we’re likely to react.And our behavioural response to anger is different from our response to otheremotions,whether positive or negative.Most positive emotions are associated with approach behaviour:we move closer to people we like.Most negative emotions,in contrast,are associated with avoidance behaviour:we move away from people and things that we dislike or that make us。

(共16小题: 每小题2分,满分30分) (共16题; 共30分)AOne of the most important things in the world is friendship. In order to have friends, you have to be a friend. But how can you be a good friend at schoolListen —Listen when they are talking. Don’t say anything unless they ask you a question. Sometimes it’s not necessary for you to have anything to say; they just need someone to talk to about their feelings.Help them — If your friend is ever in need of something, be there to help them. You should try to put them first, but make sure you don’t do everything they want you to do. Try to take an extra (额外的) pencil or pen with you to classes in case (以防) they forget one. Have a little extra money in your pocket in case they forget something they need.Be there for them — Try to make something for your friend to help make them feel better in hard times. Making cards and encouraging them are among the nicest things you can do for a friend. Marilyn Monroe, a famous U.S. actor, once said, “I often make mistakes. Sometimes I am out of control. But if you can’t stay with me at my worst,you are sure not to deserve (值得) to be with me at my best.” Always remember this! If you don’t want to stay with your friends when they’re in hard times, then you don’t deserve to be with them when they’re having a good time!______—Try to make plans with your friends. Go shopping, go for ice cream, have a party, go to a movie and so on. Take time to know each other even better by doing something you both enjoy. By planning things together, you both can have a good time. And you’ll remember these things when you’re all old!1.While your friend is talking to you about his or her feelings, you should _____.A.give him or her some advice B.just listen unless askedC.calm him or her down D.share your feelings as well2.When we provide help for our friends, we should _____.A.try to do everything for them B.put them before ourselves C.change their bad habits first D.ignore their faults3.What can we learn from Marilyn Monroe’s wordsA.Life without a friend is death.B.A friend is easier lost than found.C.A friend in need is a friend indeed.D.A man is known by his friends.4.Which of the following can be put in the blank of the last paragraphA.Make plans. B.Enjoy yourself.C.Understand your friends. D.Play with your friends.BIt seems that you can hardly go to any bookstore without encountering Charles Dickens. From Oliver Twist to A Tale of Two Cites, Dickens’ works still enjoy great popularity today and are placed on notable shelves.As someone who teaches Dickens, the question of why we still read him is often on my min. Nearly 10 years ago, I told my students that Dickens, works started crazes in Victorian readers. Then a hand shot up in the middle of the room. “But why should we still read his stuff ” A student asked. I was speechless because I had never considered the question myself. The answer I gave was only acceptable. “Because he teaches you how to think,” I said.The question annoyed me for years, and for years I told myself answers, but never with complete satisfaction. We read Dickens because he not only was a man of his own times, but also is a man for our times. We read Dickens because his exploration of the human mind is deep. We read Dickens because we can learn from the experiences of his characters. These are all wonderful reasons, but not exactly the reasons why I read Dickens.My search for an answer continued in vain, until one day a text message came from a student of mine. “We still read Dickens’ novels,” she wrote,“because they tell us why we are what we are.” Simple as it was, that was the explanation I had thought for years.Like most people, I think I knew who I was without knowing it. I was Oliver Twist, always wanting and asking for more. I was Nicholas Nickleby, convinced that my father was watching me from beyond the grave. I was Pip, in love with someone far beyond my reach. I was all of these characters, and I began to understand more about why I was who I was because Dickens had told me so much about human beings. Dickens shines a light on who we are during the best and worst of times. That’s why we still need to read him today.5.What does the underlined word “encountering” mean in Paragraph 1 A.Focusing on B.Coming acrossC.Appealing to D.Subscribing to6.What can we infer from Paragraph 2A.There was a heated discussion about Dickens.B.The author was annoyed by the rude student.C.The author wasn’t satisfied with his own answer.D.None of the students showed interest in Dickens.7.Why do we have to read his booksA.Because he teaches us how to think.B.Because he is the best writer of his day.C.Because his language is easy to understand.D.Because we can know why we are what we are.8.What’s th e main idea of the passageA.The benefits of reading Dickens’ novels.B.The reason why we still read Dickens today.C.The great influence Dickens has on teenagers.D.The reason why Dickens enjoys great popularity.CNearly one in four Americans made money over the last 12 months by using their personal computers or other devices connected to the Internet. The Pew Research Center, an independent research group in Washington, found that people are using the Internet to find extra work. They go online to sell things such as used books and furniture or they offer to provide services such as babysitting, house cleaning or computer repairs.Pew found that income earned on the Internet can come in many forms. Some said they had jobs that paid a few pennies each to take surveys. In these surveys, people are asked for their opinions of different products or well-known people. About two percent of Americans earned money from ride-sharing companies such as Uber and Lyft. When drivers are ready to pick up passengers, they use their ride-share company’s app. The computer program lets them know when passengers are ready to be picked up and how to reach them. Some people make their homes,apartments, or rooms inside their homes, available for money to people visiting their cities.About 60 percent of people say the income they earn is important to them. But just one in five people who sell things online say the income is enough to be important to their lives. Only 16 percent believe doing online work will lead to a meaningful career. But 37 percent say the extra income earned from online jobs helps them make up for shortages in money.The number one reason people gave for taking online jobs was that the work gave them something to do and was fun. What kind of people work online or use online devices to find work The answer appears to be: mostly people who already have jobs.9.What is the main idea of paragraph 1A.How to sell used books.B.How to find extra work online.C.A new way of making money.D.A new research on the Internet.10.How many forms of earning money online are mentioned in paragraph 2A.1. B.2.C.3. D.4.11.How does the author make the point more persuasiveA.By listing numbers. B.By asking questions.C.By telling stories. D.By doing surveys.12.What is implied in the last paragraphA.Many people have found jobs using the Internet.B.Those who have jobs enjoy making money online.C.The future of the Internet is questioned.D.More people will lose their job soon.DAn Uber self-driving car hit and killed a woman crossing the street in Arizona, U.S., police said on Monday, marking the first death caused by an autonomous vehicle and a potential blow to the technology expected to transform transportation.The ride services company said it was delaying North American tests of its self-driving vehicles, which are currently going on in Arizona, Pittsburgh and Toronto.So-called robot cars, when fully developed by companies including Uber, are expected to thoroughly cut down on motor vehicle deaths and create billion-dollar businesses. But Monday's accident highlighted (凸显) the possible challenges ahead for the promising technology as the cars face real-world situations involving real people."This catastrophic accident highlights why we need to be exceptionally cautious when testing and applying autonomous vehicle technologies topublic roads," said Edward Markey, a member of the transportation committee, in a statement. "Elaine Herzberg, 49, was walking her bicycle outside the crosswalk on a four-lane road in the Phoenix suburb of Tempe at about 10 p.m. MST Sunday when she was struck by the Uber vehicle traveling at about 65 kilometers per hour," police said. The car was in autonomous mode with an operator behind the wheel. U.S. federal safety officials were sending teams to investigate the crash. Canada's transportation ministry in Ontario, where Uber conducts are being tested, also said it was reviewing the accident."Uber and Waymo on Friday urged Congress to pass a law to speed the introduction of self-driving cars into the united states. However, some congressional (国会) representatives have blocked the legislation over safety concerns, and Monday's death could hamper passage of the bill, "congressional assistants said Monday.13.According to the passage, which is the effect of the accident of the woman's being killedA.People will be cautious while crossing a road.B.The woman's family will obtain a billion dollars.C.The process of transforming transportation will be affected. D.Self-driving vehicles will cut down on motor vehicles deaths. 14.We can infer from the passage that ________.A.Less than three places are doing tests of its self-driving vehicles nowB.The officials of the transportation ministry in Ontario were lookig into the crashC.Elaine Herzberg was biking when she was hit by a self-driving car D.We can't be too careful when introducing autonomous vehicle technologies to public roads15.What is the author's purpose in writing the textA.To arouse the public concerns over a self-driving safety.B.To remind car producers to be more careful when testing vehicles technology.C.To advise the Congress to pass a law to speed self-driving cars test in the US.D.To urge the US federal safety regulators to take measures to look into the accident.评卷人得分二、阅读理解第二节七选五(5小题;每小题2分,满分10分) (共1题; 共10分)Most people believe in the right to express their own opinion without fear of punishment. This value, however, is coming under fire in an unlikely place—the public school classroom. The issue is school uniforms. Should public school students be allowed to make individual decisions about clothing ___17___ I think school uniforms are the better choice for students.Wearing school uniforms would help make students’ lives simpler. They would no longer have to decide what to wear every morning, sometimes trying on outfit after outfit in an effort to choose. ___18___School uniforms influence students to act responsibly in groups and as individuals. Uniforms give students the message that school is a special place for learning. ___19___ For example, when students do something as a group, such as attending meetings in the auditorium or eating lunch in the cafeteria, the fact that they all wear the same uniform gives them a sense of unity.___20___ Students’ standards of living differ gre atly from family to family, and some people are well-off while others are not. People sometimes forget that school is a place to get an education, not to promote a “fashion show”.

高考英语阅读理解冲刺练兵1

昆明市高考英语(阅读理解)冲刺练兵(1)及答案解析1When I was a child,I often dreamed of the time when I could leave home and escape to the city.We lived on a farm and,in the winter especially,we were quite cut off from the outside world.As soon as I left school, I packed my bags and moved to the capital. However,I soon discovered that city life has its problems too.One big disadvantage is money—it costs so much to go out,not to mention basics like food and housing. Another disadvantage is pollution.I suffer from asthma(哮喘),and at times the air is so bad that I am afraid to go outside. Then there is the problem of traveling round. Although I have a car,I seldom use it because of the traffic jams.One choice is to go by bicycle,but that can be quite dangerous.Of course there are advantages.First,there is so much to do in the city,whatever your tastes in culture or entertainment(娱乐活动).Besides,there are wonderful jobs and greater chances of moving to a more important job or position.Finally,if you like shopping,the variety of goods is very surprising—and,what is more,shops are often only a short walk away.Is life better then, in the city? Perhaps it is,when you are in your teens(十几岁)or twenties. However,as you get older,and especially if you have small children,the peace of the countryside may seem preferable. I certainly hope to move back there soon.56.What was the writer always thinking about when he was a child?A.Staying on the farm.B.Moving to the countryside.C.Leaving home for the city.D.Running away from the school.57.Which of the following is true about the writer?A.He is very old now.B.He is in good health.C.He prefers driving a car.D.He lives in the city now.58.In the passage,the writer tries to____.A.express his opinions about way of life B.describe his life in the countrysideC.show an interest in the outside world D.persuade the reader to live in the city59.How is the passage mainly developed?A.By inferring.B.By comparing.C.By listing examples.D.By giving explanations.1.答案*****************************************************结束(第******篇)The latest research suggests that the key factor separating geniuses from the merely accomplished is not IQ, a generally bad predictor of , it’ s purposeful performers spend more hours practising their craft. If you wanted to picture how a typical genius might develop, you’ d take a girl who possessed a slightly above average language ability. It wouldn’ t have to be a big talent, just enough so that she might gain some sense of distinction. Then you would want her to meet, say, a novelist, who coincidentally shared some similar qualities. Maybe the writer was from the same town, had the same family background, or, shared the same birthday.This contact would give the girl a vision of her future would give her some idea of a fascinating circle she might someday would also help if one of her parents died when she was 12, giving her a strong sense of insecurity and fuelling a desperate need for success. Armed with this ambition, she would read novels and life stories of writers without end. This would give her a primary knowledge of her ’d be able to see new writing in deeper ways and quickly understand its inner workings.Then she would practise writing. Her practice would be slow, painstaking and error focused. By practising in this way,she delays the automatizing process. Her mind wants to turn conscious, newly learned skills into unconscious, automatically performed skills. By practising slowly, by breaking skills down into tiny parts and repeating, she forces the brain to internalize a better pattern of performance. Then she would find an adviser who would provide a constant stream of feedback, viewing herperformance from the outside, correcting the smallest errors,pushing her to take on tougher challenges. By now she is redoing problems — how do I get characters into a room — dozens and dozens of times. She is establishing habits of thought she can call upon in order to understand or solve future problems.The primary q uality our young writer possesses is not some mysterious genius. It’ s the ability to develop a purposeful, laborious and boring practice routine. The latest research takes some of the magic out of great achievement. But it underlines a fact that is often neglected. Public discussion is affected by genetics and what we’re “hard wired” to do. And it’s true that genes play a role in our capabilities. But the brain is also very plastic. We construct ourselves through behavior.[语篇解读] 你仍然以为天才由基因决定,以为自己不可能成为天才吗?一项新的研究表明:成功并非取决于人的IQ,而是通事后天有目的的训练得来的。

广西藤县2017高考英语阅读理解一轮基础练习阅读理解训练(2015·江西省上饶市三模)When Abraham Lincoln was young, he worked in a store. One day a woman came into the store and bought some things. They added up to two dollars and six and a quarter cents.The bill was paid, and the woman was entirely satisfied. But the young storekeeper, not feeling quite sure as to the accuracy of his calculations, added up the things again. To his surprise he found that it should have been but two dollars.“ I've mad e her pay six and a quarter cents more, ”sa id Abe, disturbed.It was an unimportant thing, and many clerks would have forgotten it, but Abe was too conscientious for that.“ The money must be paid back, ”he decided.At night, he closed the store, and walked to the home of his customer. He explained the matter, paid over the six and a quarter cents, and returned satisfied.Here is another story of young Lincoln's strict honesty. A woman entered the store and asked for half a pound of tea. The young clerk weighed it out. This was the last sale of the day.The next morning, when beginning his duties, Abe discovered a four­ounce weight on the scales. It flashed upon him at once that he had used this in the sale of the previous night, and so, of course, given his customers short weight. I am afraid that there are many country merchants who would not have been much worried by this discovery. But Abe weighed out the balance of the half pound, shut up the store, and carried it to the defrauded customer. I think my young readers will begin to see that the nam e so often given, in later times to President Lincoln, of “Honest Old Abe, ”was well deserved. A man who begins by strict honesty in his youth is not likely to change as he grows older, and mercantile honesty is some guarantee of political honesty.文章大意:本文是小故事。

高考英语一轮复习专项训练阅读理解含解析一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解I was born on the 17th of November 1828, in the village of Nam Ping, which is about four miles southwest of the Portuguese Colony (殖民地) of Macao, and is located on Pedro Island lying west of Macao, from which it is separated by a channel of half a mile wide.As early as 1834, an English lady, Mrs. Gutzlaff, wife of a missionary to China, came to Macao. Supported by the Ladies' Association in London for the promotion of female education in India and the East, she immediately took up the work of starting a girls' school for Chinese girls, which was soon followed by the opening of a boys' school.Mrs. Gutzlaff's comprador(买办) happened to come from my village and was actually my father's friend and neighbor. It was through him that my parents heard about Mrs. Gutzlaff's school and it was doubtlessly through his influence and means that my father got me admitted into the school. It has always been a mystery to me why my parents should put me into a foreign school, instead of a traditional Confucian school, where my big brother was placed. Most certainly such a step would have been more suitable for Chinese public opinion, taste, and the wants of the country, than to allow me to attend an English school. Moreover, a Chinese belief is the only avenue in China that leads to political promotion, influence, power and wealth. I can only guess that as foreign communication with China was just beginning to grow, my parents hoped that it might be worthwhile to put one of their sons to learning English. In this way he might become an interpreter and have a more advantageous position to enter the business and diplomatic world. I am wondering if that influenced my parents to put me into Mrs. Gutzlaff's School. As to what other sequences it has eventually brought about in my later life, they were entirely left in the hands of God.(1)How was the author admitted to Mrs. Gutzlaff's school?A. Through his father's friend's help.B. Through his own efforts to exams.C. Through his father's request.D. Through Mrs. Gutzlaff's influence.(2)Why did the author's parents put him into an English school?A. An English school was more influential.B. Foreign trade with China was developing fast.C. It met with Chinese public opinion.D. He could become a successful interpreter.(3)What did the author think of his parents' decision to put him into an English school?A. It was skeptical.B. It was mysterious.C. It was thoughtful.D. It was wonderful.【答案】(1)A(2)D(3)B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,小时候父亲送作者去英语学校而不是中文学校,并分析了具体原因。

A.Summer comes and we start thinking of ways to increase liquid intake. Water-rich fruitslike watermelon become a basic part of your diet during summer. These fruits can certainlyhelp to stop our thirst. Watermelons are not only nutritious but also help us beat the summerheat. However, can watermelons be shared with our pet dog?There is absolutely no harm in giving a watermelon to your pet. Watermelons are excellentsources of vitamins A and C as well as minerals. Moreover, they help to stop your pet thirst ’ as they contain more than 70% water.Before sharing a watermelon with your dog, make sure that you do not feed beyond hisability to digest. The amount you feed will vary depending upon how big your dog is. Forinstance, if you have a small breed dog, giving a small slice is enough. However, anadult Golden Retriever certainly has the ability to consume more slices.Also, make sure that you remove the seeds before feeding watermelon slices to your dog.This is because dogs find the seeds very difficult to digest; hence their consumption is likelyto cause stomach upset. Moreover, the seeds can actually be harmful to your dog as theseeds can be poisonous to your dog when eaten too much. Even taking a few may causestomach upset in some dogs. So it is best to avoid feeding the seeds to your pet.As far as offering the skin of the watermelon is concerned, you should avoid it. While therind( 外皮 ) contains a great number of nutrients, if not chewed properly and swallowed, itcan get stuck in the stomach and cause a serious digestive problem in dogs.On the whole , while watermelon is not bad for a dog’ s health, feeding it in small portions without the skin and the seeds is necessary to keep digestive issues at bay.21.Which of the following isn A.They are rich in vitamins. ’ t the reason why watermelons can be shared with the pet?B.They contain superior minerals.C.
