高一英语上学期阅读理解20篇（一）一As a student, you must be excited to know something about American school students. In fact, just like in China, in the United States, high school is usually divided into two periods, the first two or three years are called “junior high school” and the other is “senior high school”.In China, children enjoy free education of nine years, but in the United States, the students enjoy free education until they are 18 years old. As a result of the free education system (制度), American children have little difficulty in going to senior high school.American high school students can take part in a lot of activities outside of the classroom. The activities are organized by the school, such as joining a music group or a sports team. Certainly, just like us students in China, American students have to work hard in order to get good marks if they want to go to a good university. They take classes in all kinds of subjects all through the high school period. And those who come out with low marks at the end of a school year and who should repeat a grade are often allowed to go on to the next grade.In American high schools, there is fighting or hurting or other kinds of bad behaviors. So children who want to go to university are often sent to suburban (郊区的) high schools, where most students want to go to university and the atmosphere (氛围) is quite different.1. Activities outside of the classroom refer to __________.A. what the students do after class in schoolB. what the students learn in extra classesC. what a music group or a sports team doD. what the teachers do after class for the students2. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. The time of free education in China is longer than that in America.B. Those who get good marks can go to a good university.C. American students can take all kinds of subjects during the high school period.D. They can be allowed to join the next grade even if they fail the school-year exam.3. The writer of the passage tells us the truth that ________.A. the atmosphere in high schools is quite different from that in a universityB. none of the schools in cities are good for learningC. suburban high schools are good places for learningD. all the American students want to go to university二Americans can travel almost anywhere they choose. But to protect its people, the government lists a few dangerous places where Americans cannot go. These places are unfriendly countries or countries at war. There, the traveller might not be safe. These countries are listed in a small book called a passport. This passport is a government request(要求) for the safety of its travelling people. It is also a government' s pledge (保证) that the people will obey the rules of the host country. To receive a passport from the government, a traveller must prove(证明) that he is an American citizen. An American can not go abroad without a passport. Only some close countries such as Canada and Mexico do not ask for passports. Inside the passport is the traveller's picture. Children travelling with their parents are included(包含) in one parent's book. Thousands of people from the United States visit other countries every year. An American traveller might carry plane tickets, money, clothing and many other things, but the most important that he carries inanother country is his passport.1. A passport is not needed when an American goes to .A. foreign countriesB. dangerous areasC. Canada or MexicoD. foreign countries2.

The first period begins right after you are born and lasts until you are about six months old. The second period starts when you reach the age of 13. First, girls grow faster than boys, then boys catch up and grow faster and stronger.Your head stops growing earlier than the rest of you. By the time you are ten, your head is nearly full size. The bones of your arms and legs are short when you are a baby. When you reach the age of nine, your bones starts to grow rapidly, and will keep growing until you reach your full height (高度).Besides growing taller, your body changes in other ways. When a boy is about 13 years old, his voice begins to get deeper and he may begin to grow a beard (胡子). At about the age of 13, a girl’s body begins to function (运行) like a woman’s. Some important changes are taking place, changes that makes it possible for boys and girls, when they are older, to become fathers and mothers.1.

I do not want to bring my friends home becauseshe does not act like any of the other mothers. She says I am a loser because I sit at home andstudy. I wish I could live in another family that was normal, but it will be 5 years before I am 18.What am I supposed to do until then?Prisoner of a CrazyHouseDear 7th Grader,I am glad that you love your mother because the rest of your feelings about her may change asyou get older and mature.While it is true that your mother’s smoking, partying and cursing bring you shame, the factthat you want to stay separate from her doings is notable and very smart. It shows that you are awinner, not a loser. I am guessing, therefore, that you do not bring shame to yourself, and that is agood thing. So, keep it that way and keep away from your mother’s habits.At the same time, try to get the best grades and join clubs and school activities.

That wasa typical (典型的) British Sunday in the 1960s. But things now could not be more different.Some British sociologists recently studied the typical British Sunday. They found that people getup later and do less housework than they did 40 years ago. They are far more likely to be outshopping or enjoying themselves than cooking Sunday lunch.Sunday mornings were busy 40 years ago. Most women caught up on their weekly housework andcooked a nice lunch. They seldom allowed themselves any “leisure” until afternoon, after the dishes were cleaned. Then there would be another rush to the table between 5:00 pm and 6:00 pmfor tea.But now, Britons can have brunch (早午餐) at the restaurant. Fewer people bother to cookthemselves.“You only have two free days a week. You don’t want to have to waste one because there isnothing to do but watch boring TV,” said Elizabeth Biggs, 25, a producer in London.“On Saturday you are recovering from the week,” Biggs added. “Sundays are the last chance for the weekend — you want to get as much as you can out of the day before you have to go back towork.”In the past, British women usually did their shopping during the week, while the husband was atwork. “Now men seem to do that as much as women,” said Jonathan Gershuny, a professor whotook part in the study.Men also do more housework now on Sundays. Back in the 1960s, men were far more likely tospend Sundays out of the house — at the pub or playing football — before lunch.1. Many Britons have brunch at the restaurant because _______.A. They have no time to cook at home.B. They get up too late.C. They won’t bother to cook themselves.D. They will go to church.2. Which of the following is NOT true?A.

British men did little housework at home in the past.3. The text mainly tells us ________.A. what Britons did on SundaysB. why Britons go shopping on SundaysC. how Britons spend their holidaysD. the changes of the ways the Britons spend their Sundays4. What can we infer from the passage?A. Men do more housework on Sundays.B. Sundays in Britain might be very boring in the past.C. No people go to church on Sundays now.D. Britons all go out on Sundays.八Every day we go to school and listen to the teacher, and the teacher will ask us somequestions. Sometimes, the classmates will ask for your opinions of the work of the class. Whenyou are telling others in the class what you have found out about these topics, remember that theymust be able to hear what you are saying. You are not taking part in a family conversation orhaving a chat with friends—you are in a slightly unnatural situation where a large group of peoplewill remain silent, waiting to hear what you have to say. You must speak so that they can hearyou—loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout or appearing to force yourself.Remember, too, that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professorof your school or a government official who might meet you.

English speakers are always creating new words and we are often able to know where mostwords come from.Sometimes, however, no one may really know where a word comes from. Did you ever thinkabout why hamburgers are called hamburgers, especially when they are not made with ham?About a hundred years ago, some men went to America from Europe. They came from a big cityin Germany called Hamburg. They didn’t speak good English, but they ate good food. When some Americans saw them eating round piece of beef, they asked the Germans what it was. TheGermans didn’t understand the question and answered, “We come from Hamburg.” One of these Americans owned a restaurant, and had an idea. He cooked some round piece of bread and startedselling them. Such bread came to be called “hamburgers”. Today, “hamburgers” are sold in m countries around the world.Whether this story is true or not, it certainly is interesting. Knowing why any word has a certainmeaning is interesting, too.

He could face a jail term of between five andtwenty-five years without the option (选择) of a fine.”Security precautions (安全措施) were taken against the man — a resident from the wealthy (富有) Johannesburg suburb of Sandown —on the flight.s bags.Airline people didn’t find any explosives or weapons in hi“Security measures at airport and on plane have been intensified（加强）immediately after the recent horrific and tragic terror（恐怖）attacks in America,” a police statement said.

For some time, the Internet seems like a forest, filled with dangers for children. But forests have wonders as well as dangers, and with good guides, some education and a few precautions(预防措施) ,the wilds of the Internet can be safely navigated(航行). "Children have to be on-line. If we tell our children they can' t have chances to the Internet, we' re cutting them off from their future," said an expert.Most children have started to use search engines. Many of them are great for finding lots ofinteresting Internet sites and they can also go to places where you might not want them to go.There are such engines made just for children. A certain software (软件) contains only sites thathave been selected as safe. The most popular way to limit chances would be to use what is knownBut this can't be wholly safe, and the best thing parents can do isas a "content screener(过滤器)”．to talk to their kids and let them know what is OK or not OK to see or do on the Internet. Anotherway is that mum or dad is nearby when the child is surfing the Internet.A few other tips:1) Don' t put the PC in a child's room, but keep it in a place where mum or dad can keep an eye onthings. That also makes the Internet more of a family activity.2) Ask your child not to give on-line strangers personal information, especially like addressand phone number.3) Tell your children never to talk to anyone they meet on-line over the phone, send themanything, accept anything from them or agree to meet with them unless you go along.1. What is the main subject about the passage?A. Fighting against children on-line.B. Internet in America.C. American children going on-line.D. Children's web sites.2. According to the passage, we can infer thatA. the writer doesn't encourage children to surf the InternetB. the Internet has a lot of harmful sitesC. the Internet is a forest full of dangersD. a child who is on-line is in danger3. What does the passage tell us most?A. EducationB. Good guidesC. PrecautionsD. Software十三Many people will remember the flight of the space shuttle（航天飞机）Challenger, in June, 1993.The achievement of Sally Ride, America’s first woman astronaut to fly into space, made this flight especially memorable. Students from two high schools in Camden, New Jersey, however, arelikely to remember Norma rather than Sally whenever they think about the flight.（伙伴）along with her. Norma wasNorma didn’t travel along. She brought about 100 companionsan ant, a queen ant who, with her subjects, made up the first ant colony（群体）to travel into space.The ants were part of a science experiment designed by the students to test the effects ofweightlessness on insects.The equipment designed by the students for their colony functioned perfectly through-out the longspace trip. The young scientists and their teachers were very sad to find that their insect astronautshad all died at some point before the container was returned to the school and opened. Theproblem did not occur in space, but on the ground after Challenger had landed. The containerremained in the desert for nearly a week before the ant colony was removed. The hot dry desert air（容器）and the ants died from lack of moisture（水分）.dried out the colony’s containerThe project was termed a success because it did provide useful information. Students will continuetheir efforts to find out exactly what went wrong. They will try to prevent the same difficultiesfrom recurring on future missions. They don’t want to be discouraged either by the death of the ants or by the $10,000 shuttle fare they will have to pay to send the next colony of ants into space.1.

So she told her pastor which songs she wanted sung at the service，what scriptures she would like read，and what she wanted to be wearing. The woman also told her pastor that she wanted to be buried with her favorite bible.“There’s one more thing.” she said excitedly.“I want to be buried with a fork in my right hand.”The pastor stood looking at the woman not knowing quite what to say.The woman explained，“In all my years of attending church socials and functions where food was involved；my favorite part was when whoever was clearing away the dishes of the main course would lean over and say ‘you can keep your fork’. It was my favorite part because I knew that something better was coming. So I just want people to see me there in that casket with a fork in my hand and I want them to wonder ‘What’s with the fork？’ Then I want you to tell them，‘Something better is coming，so keep your fork too.’”1/ 15The pastor’s eyes were welled up with tears of joy as he hugged the woman goodbye.

That night when everyone went to bed, Bunny couldn't sleep. He still couldn't think of what he wanted his Christmas gift to be. He wondered how Father Christmas would know what to bring him if he didn't know himself.As he was sitting up in bed, Bunny heard a big noise on the roof (屋顶) and a sound downstairs. It was Father Christmas, he realized. Bunny jumped out of bed and raced down the hall to the stairs hoping to have a look at the old man with his own eyes.3/ 15By the time Bunny reached the bottom of the stairs, though, everything was again silent. Beautiful gifts were piled (堆积) under the Christmas tree, but Father Christmas was gone. He looked for him for a few minutes, but it was already too late. Bunny turned to climb back upstairs when he heard a cry.“Hello,” said Bunny. “Is somebody there?”He was answered by another cry. Bunny looked around the big pile of gifts to see what was making the noise. Right under the tree was a funny looking brown animal with big feet and sad eyes. Bunny might have mistaken it for a dog, if it hadn't been for the antlers (鹿角) on its head.“Are you a reindeer (驯鹿)?” asked Bunny.“Yes,” replied the animal, “my name is Ralph.”“And you were pulling Father Christmas' sled (雪橇)?”“I was until I got airsick,” replied Ralph, “I'm afraid I wasn't cut out for the job. Now I'm stuck here and I don't know how to get back to the North Pole.”“Well, if you like, you can stay with us as a friend,” said Bunny.

As part of her research, she took a total of 30 lift rides in the two buildings, and discovered there was a fixed order about where people chose to stand.In her research paper, she wrote that more senior men seemed to walk straight towards the back of the lift. She said, “In front of them were younger men, and in front of them were women of all ages.” She also noticed there was a difference in the direction where people looked during the ride. “Men watched the monitors, looked in the side mirrors (in one building) to see themselves, and in the door mirrors (in the other building) to watch others. Women would watch the monitors and avoid looking into others，eyes (unless in conversations) and the mirrors. ”Rebekah Rousi concluded that shyer people stand toward the front，where they can’t see other passengers，while fearless people stand in the back, where they have a good view of everyone else.(1) According to the study, where people stand in a lift is decided by ________.A. their social positionB. the monitorsC. other passengersD. others’ position8/ 15(2) Who are most likely to go to the back of the lift?A.

高一英语上学期阅读理解10篇（三）（一）It seems that beauty and women are twins．You are joking? No，I do not．Observe for yourself Ads on fashion TV screens，radio programs，magazines，newspapers，and the streets．Whether they have realized it or not, women are surrounded(包围)by a sea of fashion．They are taught to think that without beautiful clothes they will grow old and lose their charm．So who dares to neglect dressing up at the cost of their appearance and youth?But I do not agree with the opinion that women have to show their beauty through their looks．The richness of their minds proves to be more beautiful and attractive than their looks．A woman who has experienced many troubles and may be called “aunt” or “granny” can still keep up her beauty if she has such excellent qualities as knowledge，ability，a kind heart，great courage，concern for others，etc．In addition，old and young，beautiful and ugly are relative concept．People who keep a young mind will never feel old．Interested in new things and eager to learn more，they keep up with the tide．Plainly(简朴地)dressed women may have a type of beauty that is pure and real．Reading and learning is the best way to keep one youthful．Good books ale rich soil which can feed the flower of one’s heart and looks．1．According to the first paragraph，why are women caught by a sea of fashion?

A few dogs started barking at it. The elephant woke up in a terrible anger: it chased the dogs into the village where they ran for safety. That didn’t stop the elephant. It destroyed a dozen houses and injured several people. The villagers were scared and angry. Then someone suggested calling Parbati, the elephant princess.Parbati Barua’s father was a hunter of tigers and an elephant tamer. He taught Parbati to ride an elephant before she could even walk. He also taught her the dangerous art of the elephant round-up—how to catch wild elephants.Parbati hasn’t always lived in the jungle. After a happy childhood hunting with her father, she was sent to boarding school in the city. But Parbati never got used to being there and many years later she went back to her old life. “Life in the city is too dull. Catching elephants is an adventure and the excitement lasts for days after the Chase,” she says.But Parbati doesn’t catch elephants just for fun. “My work,” she says,“is to rescue man from the elephants, and to keep the elephants safe from man. ”And this is exactly what Parbati hasbeen doing for many years. Increasingly, the Indian elephant is angry: for many years, illegal hunters have attacked it and its home in the jungle has been reduced to small pieces of land. It is now fighting back. Whenever wild elephants enter a tea garden or a village, Parbati is called to guide the animals back to the jungle before they can kill.The work of an elephant tamer also involves love and devotion. A good elephant tamer will spend hours a day singing love songs to a newly captured elephant. “Eventually they grow to love their tamers and never forget them. They are also more loyal than humans,”she said, as she climbed up one of her elephants and sat on the giant, happy animal. An elephant princess indeed !l. For Parbati, catching elephants is mainly to_____________.A. get long lasting excitementB. keep both man and elephants safeC. send them back to the jungleD. make the angry elephants tame2. Indian elephants are getting increasingly angry and they fight back because______ .A. they are caught and sent for heavy workB. illegal hunters capture them and kill themC. they are attacked and their land gets limited D dogs often bark at them and chase them3. The passage starts with an elephant story in order to explain that in India___ .A. people easily fall victim to elephants’ attacksB. the man-elephant relationship is getting worseC. elephant tamers are in short supplyD. dogs are as powerful as elephants（三）For many parents, raising a teenager is like fighting a long war, but years go by without any clear winner. Like a border conflict between neighboring countries, the parent-teen war is about boundaries: Where is the line between what I control and what you do?Both sides want peace, but neither feels it has any power to stop the conflict. In part，this is because neither is willing to admit any responsibility for starting it. From the parents’ point of view, the only cause of their fight is their adolescents’ complete unreasonableness. And of course, the teens see it in exactly the same way, except oppositely. Both feel trapped.In this article, I’ll describe three no-win situations that commonly arise between teens and parents and then suggest some ways out of the trap. The first no-win situation is quarrel on unimportant things. Examples include the color of the teen’s hair, the cleanness of the bedroom, the preferred style of clothing, the child’s failure to eat a good breakfast before school, or his tendency to sleep until noon on the weekends. Second, blaming. The goal of a blaming battle is to make the other admit that his bad attitude is the reason why everything goes wrong. Third, needing to be right. It doesn’t matter what the topic is—politics, the laws of physics, or the proper way to break an egg—the point of these arguments is to prove that you are right and the other person is wrong，for both wish to be considered an authority—someone who actually knows something—and therefore to command respect. Unfortunately, as long as parents and teens continue to assume that they know more than the other, they’ll continue to fight these battles forever and never make any real progress.1. Why does the author compare the parent teen war to a border conflict?A. Both can continue for generations.B. Both are about where to draw the line.C. Neither has any clear winner.D. Neither can be put to an end.2. What does the underlined part in Paragraph 2 mean?A. The teens blame their parents for starting the conflict.B. The teens agree with their parents on the cause of the conflict.C. The teens accuse their parents of misleading them.D. The teens tend to have a full understanding of their parents.3. Parents and teens want to be right because they want to__________.A. give orders to the otherB. know more than the otherC. gain respect from the otherD. get the other to behave properly4. What will the author most probably discuss in the paragraph that follows?A. Causes for the parent-teen conflictsB. Examples of the parent-teen warC. Solutions for the parent-teen problemsD. Future of the parent-teen relationship(四)Wearing shabby clothes and stretching out a dirty hand towards people, this is the traditional image of beggars. But nowadays that image has changed in many ways. Beggars can even look exactly like a white-collar worker.With the development of the Internet, beggars also benefit from new technology. Without standing on the street all day long, they can just sit at home and click the keyboard -- "beggar websites" make the begging business much easier.Just by googling the words beggar and website, dozens of such Chinese forums are found. "Please donate 1 yuan; it will help me be rich!" -- that's a common slogan from many of these begging websites.The layout of these sites is quite similar. There are some funny or tragic pictures across the top of the screen, then a request for donations is classified into three levels. 1 yuan, 5 yuan and 10 yuan. Just by clicking on these buttons, one can make a kindly donation. People can pay through an online paying system or send money to a bankcard number.These websites also provide lists of those who have donated, but almost all of them have mostly donated 1 yuan per person, and online stores or other small websites can have a place on the site for a small advertisement after the donation.Actually, such begging websites are not original in China. Online begging first appeared in the United States. Some individuals opened such websites to relieve their economic embarrassment.In 2002, a woman in New York owed about $20,000 to the bank, so she set up a begging website and, what a surprise, she received over $13,000 from netizens which solved her problems more or less.In some "professional" begging websites in the United States, the website organizer can even receive many thousands of dollars. However, the income from most of the web sites found in China seems not so good.1. The passage is mainly about __.A. the difference between traditional and modern beggarsB. the begging websiteC. considerable donations onlineD. how to make money online2. What can we conclude from the passage?A. We can make a good living by begging online.B. Western begging websites always make more money than those in China.C. Begging websites can advertise for donators.D. Online begging came into being in China first.3. By what means can people donate money to the online websites?A. People can pay in cash.B. People can pay through online paying systems.C. People can pay by check.D. All the above means.4. Which is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Some begging websites use the donations to help poor people.B. Some begging websites solve their financial problems by receiving donations.C. The improvement of the Internet technology helps beggars make money more easily.D. We can find Chinese begging websites by googling some key words.（五）I know what you’re thinking：pizza? For breakfast? But the truth is that you can have last night’s leftovers in the a. m. if you want to.I know lots of women who skip breakfast, and they have a ton of different excuses for doing it. Some say they don’t have time, others think they’re “saving” calories（卡路里）, still others just don’t like breakfast food.But the bottom line is that eating in the morning is very important when you’re trying to lose weight. “Eating just about anything from 300 to 400 calories would be better than nothing at all，”says Katherine Brooking, R. D.，who developed the super-easy eating plan for this year’s “SELF CHALLENGE”. And even pizza can be healthy if it’s loaded with vegetables, and you stick to one small piece.Breakfast is one meal I never miss, and the same goes for most weight loss success stories. Research shows that eating breakfast keeps you from overeating later in the day. Researchers at the University of Southern California found that breakfast skippers have a bigger chance of gaining weight than those who regularly have a morning meal.So eat something in the morning, anything. I know plenty of friends who end up having no breakfast altogether, and have just coffee or orange juice. I say, try heating up last night’s leftovers-it may sound crazy, but if it works for you, do it! I find if I tell myself', “You can always eat it tomorrow, ”I pu t away the leftovers instead of eating more that night. Try it…you may save yourself some pre-bedtime calories. And watch your body gain the fat-burning effects.1. The word“leftovers”in Paragraph 1 probably means __________.A. food remaining after a mealB. things left undoneC. meals made of vegetablesD. pizza topped with fruit .2 What can we infer from the text?A. Working women usually have breakfast in a hurry.B. Many people have wrong ideas about breakfast.C. There are some easy ways of cooking a meal.D. Eating vegetables helps save energy.3. According to the last paragraph, it is important to__________.A. eat something for breakfastB. be careful about what you eatC. heat up food before eating itD. eat calorie-controlled food4. The text is written mainly for those__________.A. who go to work earlyB. who want to lose weightC. who stay up lateD. who eat before sleep（六）A typical day at work for Cesar Millan might include putting on his running shoes and takinga four-hour jog with 40 dogs—dogs large and small, young and old. Amazingly, most of those dogs belong to him. The rest are at the heart of his work; they are troubled dogs sent to Millan to learn good behavior.Obviously Millan, star of the TV show Dog Whisperer and author of the best-selling book Cesar’s Way, has a special gift for working with these animals.Growing up on a farm in Mexico, Millan knewhe wanted to work with dogs. His first job, at age 15, was helping a veterinarian（兽医）. He was so good at calming scared dogs and handling all kinds of situations that people started calling him“el perrero”, Spanish for“the dog boy”. Since then, he has built a rewarding career around his favorite animal.“My grandfather taught me at an earl age not to work against nature”, he explains.“In nature, dogs are pack animals. They form a group and follow one leader. Millan’s specialty is teaching people to be pack leaders for their dogs.Studying dogs on the farm where he grew up, Millan realised they need lots of exercise to be calm. He explains his approach, “Exercise and discipline first, and then affection!” He says a lot of people get it backw ards because they don’t rea lise what dogs really need. Therefore, while he trains dogs, he teaches owners to understand that their pets need rules. He’s helped famous people like Oprah Winfrey and movie star will Smith and everyday people too.To find the right career, Millan encourages kids to do what they enjoy. “A lot of people don’t realise I’ve been working with dogs for more than 20 years—long before my TV show or book. Success followed me because I was following my dream of being the best dog trainer in the world. ”1. As a teenager, Millan became famous for____________.A. working well with dogsB. making a life in SpainC. being a TV star and writing a bookD. showing love to many animals2. By saying“dogs are pack animals”（in Para 4）,the author means that___________.A. dogs like to live with peopleB. dogs are easier to be trainedC. few dogs can be leadersD. dogs should live in groups3. Which of the following would Millan agree to?A. Dogs are quiet animals.B. Dogs should be trained on farms.C. Rules are more important than love in training dogs.D. Famous people have more problems in training dogs.4. What does Millan advise children to do when it comes to choosing a job?A. Do what interests them.B. Never give up and they will succeed.C Share their ideas with many other people.D Receive training long before they succeed.(七)CBC is a famous air company which has over twenty planes carrying passengers and goods, flying along 12 fixed lines all over the world. Its service is very good but some passengers are still not satisfied with it and that is why in 2003 and 2004 the company received letters of complaints from consumers or passengers who pointed out over a dozen kinds of problems which are divided in groups in the following table. Those about passengers’ things carried by the plane are Baggage problems. Consumer service refers to service work which passengers are not satisfied with.

to trade rice as food the winter．One night they camped in a wilderness with astarry sky above．The senior villager，obeying the tradition passed down from forefathers，took out three blocks of salt and threw them into the campfire，probably to predict the changes of weather in the mountains．All eagerly waited for the old man’s“weather report”：if the salt in the fire produced crackling sound，they would have good weather in store；if no sound was produced，it then meant the good weather would soon end and a storm would come at any moment．The senior villager looked serious．The salt in the campfire made no sound at all．Convinced by this bad sign，he urged(催促)the whole team to set out immediately after daybreak．A young man in the group，however，insisted that they should not start in such a hurry，considering it superstitious to“forecast weather by using salt．It was not until the next afternoon that the young man caught up on the wisdom of the old man when the weather suddenly changed，with cold winds blowing and a snowstorm raging．In fact，the method used by the clan head could be well explained by modem science：whether or not salt produces sound in campfire depends on air humidity(湿度)．That is to say，when a storm approaches，due to high humidity，the dampened salt blocks will not produce any sound in fire．1．The senior villager predicted the changes of the weather while camping in a wilderness that night．A．by taking out salt B．by burning salt in fireC．in a superstitious way D．depending on his wisdom2．“The weather report”they got that night ．A．had a bad sign B．gave

fireB．the higher humidity is，the bigger sound salt will produce in fireC．dampened salt blocks will result in winds and stormsD．the young man never wanted to understand the old man4．From the passage，it can be concluded that ．A．old people are always right B．old people are wiser than the young C．young people shouldn’t regard old ideas as useless or out of date sometimesD．young people usually have different opinions from the old（九）In the US，people prefer waiting for a t able to sitting with people they don’t know．This means a hostess may not seat a small group until a small table is available．even if a large one is．If you are sitting at a table with people you don’t know，it is impolite to light up a cigarette without asking if it will disturb them．At American restaurants and coffee shops you are usually served tap water(自来水)before you order．You may find the bread and butter is free，and if you order coffee，you may get a free refill．Most cities and towns have no rules about opening and closing time for stores or restaurants，though they usually do make rules for bars．Especially in large cities．stores may be open 24 hours a day．Serving in restaurants is often large．too large for many people．If you can’t finish yo ur mealbut would like to enjoy the food later．ask your waitress or waiter for a“doggie bag”．It may have a picture of a dog on it，but everybody knows you’re taking the food for yourself．Supper and dinner are both words for the evening meal．Some people have“Sunday dinner”．This is an especially big noon meal．Tips are not usually added to the check．They are not included in the price of the meal，either．A tip of about 15％is expected and you should leave it On the table when you leave．In some restaurants，a check is brought on a plate and you put your money

（英语）高一英语阅读理解题20套(带答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解Here is a record of the discussion about AI (artificial intelligence) conducted by several scientists:Scientist A: I would say that we are quite a long way off developing the AI, though I do think it will happen within the next thirty or forty years. We will probably remain in control of technology and it will help us solve many of the world's problems. However, no one really knows what will happen if machines become more intelligent than humans. They may help us, ignore us or destroy us. I tend to believe AI will have a positive influence on our future lives, but whether that is true will be partly up to us.Scientist B: I have to admit that the potential consequences of creating something that can match or go beyond human intelligence frighten me. Even now, scientists are teaching computers how to learn on their own. At some point in the near future, their intelligence may well take off and develop at an ever-increasing speed. Human beings evolve biologically very slowly and we would be quickly substituted. In the short term, there is the danger that robots will take over millions of human jobs, creating a large underclass of unemployed people. This could mean large-scale poverty and social unrest. In the long term machines might decide the world would be better without humans.Scientist C: I'm a member of the Campaign to Stop Killer Robots. Forget the movie image of a terrifying Terminator stamping on human skulls and think of what's happening right now: military machines like drones, gun turrets and sentry robots are already being used to kill with very little human input. The next step will be autonomous “murderbots” following orders but finally deciding who to kill on their own. It seems clear to me that this would be extremely dangerous for humans. We need to be very cautious indeed about what we ask machines to do.（1）What is Scientist B worried about?A. AI technology will destroy the earth.B. Computers can't think by themselves.C. Robots will take the place of humans.D. Humans will be unhappy without machines.（2）What does the underlined word “this” in the last paragraph refer to?A. I launched the campaign to Stop Killer Robots.B. We forget the movie image of a terrifying Terminator.C. “Murderbots” can't decide by themselves.D. “Murderbots” will be against humans' orders.（3）Which statement is CORRECT according to the record?A. Scientist A thinks AI technology will never develop.B. The employment will be affected by AI technology in the future.C. “Murderbots” will follow the orders of their manufacturers in the wars.D. All the three scientists agree that AI technology will benefit human beings.（4）Who agree(s) AI has more negative aspects than positive aspects?A. Scientist AB. Scientist BC. Scientists B & CD.

The doughnuts were 10 and cut from a sheet of dough(生面团), then left to rise until ready to fry in hot oil. Then they took several seconds to 11 , which meant that my enormous batch of 100 doughnuts was 12 cooking in a fairly short time. We glazed(浇上浆液) the tops and then 13 them for the rest of the evening. The leftovers disappeared at breakfast.This will become an annual 14 , I have no doubt.

"I tried to pick it up and it was really heavy and I saw teeth on it." The bone weighed about 50 pounds. They eventually got the bone to their home and fitted it in their tub (浴盆), but it took their collective strength, might and a golf cart, to carry the large Mastodon bone."They didn't expect to find that," Michael's mom said. "Now that they have, I believe that they will be more aware of their surroundings and what they're digging up when they are digging and playing.""We've gotten a lot of petrified (石化的) wood and Civil War relics from the area and that's what I thought it was," the brothers' mother said. "This is our first set of teeth we've found. So we thought it was their imagination. We were quite surprised to see that it was not their imagination."They were exploring near the brothers' home. Lo and behold (真想不到), they saw what they thought resembled a fossil. It was the curator of paleontology (古生物负责人) of the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science, George Phillips, who first identified the bone as a "very mature individual."The Mastodon was a mammal who lived during the prehistoric times. They had long tusks and trunks, like elephants. They were clearly different from their modern-day counterparts, as well as woolly mammoths (猛犸).（1）How did they find the jawbone of a Mastodon?A.
