浙江省2012高考英语二轮复习专题训练:阅读理解(22)阅读理解AIn November 1965, New York was blacked out by an electricity failure.The government officials promised that it would not happen again.Pessimists(悲观者)were certain that it would occur again within five years at the latest.In July 1977, there was a repeat performance which produced different degrees of disorder throughout the city of 8,000,000 people.In 1965, the failure occurred in the cool autumn and at a time of peace and good situation.In 1977, the failure was much more serious because it came when the number of people out of work was large and the city was suffering from one of its worst heat waves.In 1965 there was little stealing during the darkness, and fewer than 100 people were caught by the police.In 1977, hundreds of stores were broken into and stolen.They broke shop windows and helped themselves to jewellery, clothes or television sets, nearly 400 people were sent to the police but far more disappeared into the darkness of the night.The number of policemen at hand was far from enough and they were wisely stopped from using their guns against the mobs(暴徒)that were far more than them and that included armed men.Hospitals had to treat hundreds of people cut by glass from shop windows.Banks and most businesses remained closed the next day.The blackout started at 9:33 p.m., when lightning hit and knocked out vital cables(关键的电缆).Many stores were thus caught by surprise.The vast majority of New Yorkers, however, tried to help strangers, handed out candles, and tried to get through the dark world without traffic lights, refrigerators, water and electrical power.For 24 hours, New York realized how helpless it was without electricity.1.Look at the first paragraph.Who were right, the government officials or the pessimists?A.The government officials B.The pessimistsC.Both D.Neither.2.In what way was the blackout of 1977 different from that of 1965?A.There was much more disorder B.This time the electricity supply failed.C.It was quite unexpected D.It came in the cool autumn.3.Why did many persons manage to escape the police?A.Because the police could not see them in the darkness.B.Many of them carried guns.C.There were not enough policemen to catch them allD.They were hidden inside big buildings.4.The 1977 New York electricity failure lasted______.A.a whole week B.twenty-four hoursC.three days D.a whole night.BAfter giving a talk at a high school, I was asked to pay a visit to a special student.An illness had kept the boy home, but he had expressed an interest in meeting me, and it would mean a great deal to him.I agreed.During the nine-mile drive to his home, I found out something about Matthew.He hadmuscular dystrophy(肌肉萎缩症).When he was born, the doctor told his parents that he would not live to see five, then they were told he would not make it to ten.Now he was thirteen.He wanted to meet me because I was a gold-medal weight lifter, and I knew about overcoming obstacles and going for my dreams.I spent over an hour talking to Matthew.Never once did he complain or ask, “Why me?” He spoke about winning and succeeding and going for his dreams.Obviously, he knew what he was talking about.He didn’t mention that his classmates had made fun of him because he was different.He just talked about his hopes for the future, and how one day he wanted to lift weight with me.When we finished talking, I went to my briefcase and pulled out the first gold medal I won and put it around his neck.I told him he was more of a winner and knew more about success and overcoming obstacles than I ever would.He looked at it for a moment, then took it off and handed it back to me.He said, “You are a champion.You earned that medal.Someday when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal, I will show it to you.”Last summer I received a letter from Matthew’s parents telling me that Matthew had passed away.They wanted me to have a letter he had written to me a few days before: Dear Rick,My mom said I should send you a thank you letter for the picture you sent me.I also want to let you know that the doctors tell me that I don’t have long to live anymore.But I still smile as much as I can.I told you some day I was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal.But I know now I will never get to do that.But I know I’m a champion, and God knows that too.When I get to Heaven, God will give me my medal and when you get there, I will show it to you.Thank you for loving me .Your friend Matthew.5.The boy wanted to meet the author because_______.A.he was interested in weight liftingB.he wanted to get a gold medalC.he admired the author very muchD.he wanted the author to know him6.The underlined part in the third paragraph probably means “_____”.A.Why do you come to see me?B.Why do I have to stay at home?C.Why does the disease fall on me?D.Why not give a gold medal to me?7.We can infer from the passage that_____A.Matthew is a determined boyB.Rick used to have the same diseaseC.Matthew became a champion finallyD.Rick regarded Matthew as normal8.The boy refused the author’s medal because______.A.he wanted the picture insteadB.he would not be pitied by othersC.he did

weather: it’s the most common subject of conversation, for example, “Isn’t it a nice day?” “Do you think it will rain?” “ I think it is going to snow.” All these are the common ways of starting a conversation.Many people think they can tell what the weather is going to be like.But they hardly ever agree with each other.One man may say, “ Do you see how cloudy it is in the east? It is going to rain tomorrow.” Another man will say, “ Yes, it’s cloudy in the east.We are going to have a fine day tomorrow.”People often look for the weather they want.When a farmer needs water, he looks for something to tell him it is going to rain; he won’t believe anything else.When friends have a picnic, they are so sure the weather is going to clear up very quickly that they won’t stop eating their lunch while it rains.Almost everyone listens to what the weatherman says.But he does not always tell us what we want, and once in a while he makes a mistake.Still, he probably comes closer to being correct than anyone else.13.When we start a conversation with our friends, we usually______.A.ask their names B.talk about the weatherC.say hello to them D.ask their addresses14.When we talk about the weather, we usually say______.A.“Are you cold?”B.“Are you well?”C.“What day is today?”D.“What a fine day!”15.The weatherman________.A.tells us the weather we hope forB.never makes a mistakeC.comes closer to being correct than anyone elseD.Should be blamedEE-mail can be a powerful new tool in improving communication(交流)between patients and doctors, according to one expert.“Using the Internet, doctors can answer more questions from more patients in a shorter time,” writes Dr Basal Pal, a famous doctor in Manchester, UK.According to Pal, nearly 40% of American patients say they used E-mail to communicate with a doctor in the past.He notes, however, that although patients have such interests, only up to 2% of doctors in the United States offer E-mail service.Using E-mail, doctors can make sure of their advice and post patient information materials and other resources on the Internet.It’s said that more than 10,000 health-oriented websites(网站)already exist now.However, some people worry that widespread use of medical E-mail might set up two kindsof care---one for Internet “haves” and the other for the “have-nots”.But Pal points out that “by the year 2003 nearly every library will offer Internet and E-mail services in the United States”.That allows even low-income patients to use such means.Pal also talks about other possible barriers to the acceptance of medical E-mail.“Doctors may be unwilling to offer E-mail services for fear of increasing workload(工作量)and uncertainty about payment(付款)for the time they spent,” he explained, “and patients may worry that their medical information might be read by others.” “But these problems can all be solved,” he added.“E-mail may help us a lot in health care,” Pal concludes.“Patients want to know more than they can get in normal clinics,” he points out, “and they might find communication on the information superhighway(超级公路)less fearful than face-to-face dialogue with their doctors.”16.The article introduces a new way of patient-doctor communication_________ A.by E-mailB.by visiting websitesC.by searching the InternetD.by using the computer17.According to the text, some people worry that _______A.it might have to serve both those who have access(访问通道)to the Internet and those whose workload is not too heavy.B.it might meet double doubts from the doctors and patientsC.it might make trouble between those who can use the Internet and those who can’tD.it might make trouble between those who have Internet experience and those who haven’t 18.All the following points are advantages(优点)of using medical E-mail except that______ A.it is more convenientB.it is less frighteningC.it enables patients and doctors to understand each other betterD.it provides patients more choices of treatment(治疗)19.What does the underlin ed word “barrier” mean?A.possibility B.danger C.block D.secret 20.Which of the following is true about E-mail in the USA?A.Every patient cannot use it.B.Only doctors can use it.C.Patients needn’t pay for their treatment by using E-mail.D.No others can read the information sent by E-mail.41.D 42.A 43.C 44.B 45.C 46.C 47.A.48.B.49.C 50.D.51.B 52.C 53.B.54.D.55.C 56.A 57.B 58.D 59.C 60.A.。

2012阅读训练zj (1)AEaster (复活节) is still a great day for worship, candy in baskets and running around the yard finding eggs, but every year it gets quite a bit worse for bunnies.And no, not because the kids like to pull their ears. The culprit is climate change, and some researchers found that rising temperatures are having harmful effects on at least five species of rabbit in the US.Take the Lower Keys Marsh rabbit, for instance. An endangered species that lives in the Lower Florida Keys, this species of cottontail is a great swimmer -- it lives on the islands! -- but it is already severely affected by development and now by rising sea levels. According to the Center for Biological Diversity, an ocean level rise of only 0.6 meters will send these guys jumping to higher ground and a 0.9-meter rise would wipe out their habitat (栖息地) completely.The snowshoe hare, on the other hand, has a color issue. Most of these rabbits change their fur color from white in the wintertime to brown in the summer, each designed to give them better cover from predators (捕食者) As the number of days with snow decreases all across the country, however, more and more bunnies are being left in white fur during brown dirt days of both fall and spring, making them an easier mark for predators. Researchers know that the color change is controlled by the number of hours of sunlight, but whether the rabbit will be able to adapt quick enough to survive is a big question. The National Wildlife Federation has reported that hunters have noticed their numbers are already markedly down.American pikas or rock rabbits, a relative of rabbits and hares, might be the first of these species to go extinct due to climate change. About 7-8 inches long, pikas live high in the cool. damp mountains west of the Rocky Mountains. As global temperatures rise, they would naturally migrate (迁移) to higher ground -- but they already occupy the mountaintops. They can’t go any higher. The National Wildlife Federation reports that they might not be able to stand the new temperatures as their habitat heats up.The volcano rabbit has the same problem. These rabbits live on the slopes of volcanoes in Mexico, and recent studies have shown that the lower range of their habitat has already shifted upward about 700 meters, but there are not suitable plants for them to move higher, so they are stuck in the middle. Scientists are concerned about their populations.Native to the US, pygmy rabbits weigh less than 1 pound and live in the American West. They are believed to be the smallest rabbits in the world. Their habitats have been destroyed by development. Several populations, such as the Columbia Basin pygmy, almost went extinct and were saved by zoo breeding programs. Pygmy rabbits also rely on winter cover by digging tunnels through the snow to escape predators, but lesser snowfall is leaving them exposed.All of this gives new meaning to dressing up in a giant bunny costume this Easter.41. The writer mentions Easter at the beginning of the passage in order toA. show the importance of Easter DayB. introduce the issue about bunniesC. remind people of Easter traditionsD. discuss the relationship between Easter and bunnies42. The word “culprit” (Paragraph 2) is closest in meaning to_________A. criminalB. judgeC. victimD. producer43. According to the passage, some rabbits can now be easily discovered by predators because they____A. are exposed to more skillful huntersB. have moved to habitats with fewer plantsC. haven’t adapted themselves to climate changeD. can’t change their fur color into white in the fall and the spring44. The problem faced by volcano rabbits and rock rabbits is thatA. both are affected by less snowB. both are affected by rising sea levelsC. neither can find enough foodD. neither can migrate to higher places45. Which best describes the writer’s tone in the passage?A. Approving.B. Concerned.C. Enthusiastic.D.

The record for " Heaviest pumpkin".Two friends have an argument that bleaks up their friendship forever, even though neither one can remember how the whole thing got started. Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the country. In fact, according to an official report on youth violence, "In our country today, the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment, but the terrible reality of violence". Given that this is the case, why aren't students taught to manage conflict the way they are taught to solve math problems, drive cars, or stay physically fit?First of all, students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable. A report on violence among middle school and high school students indicates that most violent incidents between students begin with a relatively minor insult (侮辱). For example, a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandw ich each lunchtime. Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults, which in turn can lead to violence. The problem isn't in the sandwich, but in the way students deal with the conflict.Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable, they can practice the golden rule of conflict resolution (解决) stay calm. Once the student feels calmer, he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down as well. Rude words, name-calling, and accusation only add fuel to the emotional fir On the other hand, soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes out of control.After both sides have calmed down, they can use another key strategy for conflict resolution; listening. Listening allows the two sides to understand each other. One person should describe his or her side, and the other person should listen without interrupting. Afterward, the listener can ask non-threatening questions to clarify the speaker's position. Then the two people should change roles.Finally, students need to consider what they are hearing. This doesn't mean trying to figure out what's wrong with the other person. It means understanding what the real issue is and what both sides are trying to accomplish. For example, a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things. Students need to ask themselves questions such as these: How did this start? What do I really want? What am I afraid of? As the issue becomes clearer, the conflict often simply becomes smaller. Even if it doesn't, careful thought helps both sides figure out a mutual solution.There will always be conflict in schools, but that doesn't mean there needs to be violence. After students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program, according to Educators for Social Responsibility, "64 percent of the teachers reported less physical violence in the classroom; 75 percent of the teachers reported an increase in student cooperation; and 92 percent of the students felt better about themselves". Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends, teachers, parents, bosses, and coworkers. In that way, conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country.50. This article is mainly about _ _____.A. the lives of school childrenB. the cause of arguments in schoolsC. how to analyze youth violenceD. how to deal with school conflicts51. From Paragraph 2 we can learn that________ .A. violence is more likely to occur at lunchtimeB. a small conflict can lead to viole nceC. students tend to lose their temper easilyD. the eating habit of a student is often the cause of a fight52. Why do students need to ask themselves the questions stated in Paragraph 5?A. To find out who to blame.B. To get ready to buy new things.C. To make clear what the real issue is.D. To figure out how to stop the shouting match.53. After the conflict resolution program was started in Atlanta, it was found that______.A. there was a decrease in classroom violenceB. there was less student cooperation in the classroomC.more teachers fell better about themselves in schoolsD. the teacher-student relationship greatly improved54. The writer’s purpose for writing this article is to_______.A. complain about problems in school educationB. teach students different strategies for school lifeC.advocate teaching conflict management in schools Dinform teachers of the latest studies on school violenceAs a young boy, I sometimes traveled the country roads with my dad. He was a rural mill carrier, and on Saturdays he would ask me to go with him. Driving through the countryside was always an adventure: There were animals to see, people to visit, and chocolate cookies if you knew where to stop, and Dad did.In the spring, Dad delivered boxes full of baby chickens, and when 1 was a boy it was such a fun to stick your finger through one of the holes of the boxes and let the baby birds peck on your fingers.On Dad' s final day of work, it took him well into the evening to complete his rounds because at least one member from each family was waiting at their mailbox to thank him for his friendship and his years of service. "Two hundred and nineteen mailboxes on my route." he used to say, "and a story at every one. " One lady had no mailbox, so Dad took the mail in to her every day because she was nearly blind. Once inside, he read her mail and helped her pay her bills.Mailboxes were sometimes used for things other than mail. One note left in a mailbox read. "Nat, take these eggs to Marian; she's baking a cake and doesn't have any eggs. " Mailboxes might be buried in the snow, or broken, or lying on the groom, but the mail was always delivered . On cold days Dad might find one of his customers waiting for him with a cup of hot chocolate. A young wrote letters but had no stamps, so she left a few button on the envelope in the mailbox; Dad paid for the stamps. One businessman used to leave large amounts of cash in his mailbox for Dad to take to the bank. Once, the amount came to 8 32,000.A dozen years ago, when I traveled back to my hometown on the sad occasion of Dad’s death, the mailboxes along the way reminded me of some of his stories. I thought I knew them all, but that wasn't the case.As I drove home, I noticed two lamp poles, one on each side of the street. When my dad was around, those poles supported wooden boxes about four feet off the ground. One box was painted green and the other was red, and each had a long narrow hole at the top with white lettering: SANTA CLAUS, NORTH POLE. For years children had dropped letters to Santa through those holes.I made a turn at the comer and drove past the post office and across the railroad tracks to our house. Mom and I were sitting at the kitchen table when I heard footsteps. There, at the door, stood Frank Townsend, Dad's postmaster and great friend for many years. So we all sat down at the table and began to tell stories.At one point Frank looked at me with tears in his eyes. " What are we going to do about the letters this Christmas?" he asked."The letters?"“I guess you never knew. ""Knew what?"" Remember, when you were a kid and you used to put your letters to Santa in those green and red boxes on Main Street? It was your dad who answered all those letters every year. "I just sat there with tears in my eyes. It wasn’t hard for me to imagine Dad sitting at the old table in our basement reading those letters and answering each one. I have since spoken with several of the people who received Christmas letters during their childhood, and they told me how amazed they were that Santa had known so much about their homes and families.For me, just knowing that story about my father was the gift of a lifetime.55. It can be inferred from the passage that the writer regarded his travels with Dad as_____.A. great chances to help other peopleB. happy occasions to play with baby chickensC. exciting experience with a lot of funD. good opportunities to enjoy chocolate cookies56.

浙江省2012高考英语二轮复习专题训练:阅读理解(90)阅读理解AA new generation addiction is quickly spreading all over the world.Weboholism, a twentieth century disease, affects people from different ages.They surf the net, use e-mail and speak in chat rooms.They spend many hours on the computer, and it becomes a compulsive habit.They cannot stop, and it affects their lives.Ten years ago, no one thought that using computers could become compulsive behavior that could affect the social and physical life of computer users.This obsessional behavior has affected teenagers and college students.They are likely to log on computers and spend long hours at different websites.They become hooked on computers and gradually their social and school life is affected by this situation.They spend all free time surfing and don't concentrate on homework, so this addiction influences their grades and success at school.Because they can find everything on the websites, they hang out there.Moreover, this addiction to websites influences their social life.They spend more time in front of computers than with their friends.The relation with their friends changes.The virtual life becomes more important than their real life.They have a new language that they speak in the chat rooms and it causes cultural changes in society.Because of the change in their behavior, they begin to isolate themselves from the society and live with their virtual friends.They share their emotions and feelings with friends who they have never met in their life.Although they feel confident on the computer, they are not confident with real life friends they have known all their life.It is a problem for the future.This addictive behavior is beginning to affect all the world.1.The main idea of the passage is about ____________.A.the cause of weboholism B.the advantage of weboholismC.the popularity of weboholism D.the influence of weboholism2.The underlined word “obsessional” in the second paragraph most probably means ___________.A.attractive B.addictive C.professional D.potential 3.We can infer from the passage that __________.A.weboholism has the greatest effect on teenagersB.students can hardly balance real and virtual lifeC.people are addicted to games on the InternetD.virtual life is more vivid and attractive anyway4.Which of the following is NOT true of weboholism?A.It contributes to the development of the web.B.The chat room language may change social culture.C.The problem will be getting more and more serious later.D.People addicted to the web often become inactive in real life.BThe appeal of advertising to buying motives can have both negative and positive effects.Consumers may be convinced to buy a product of poor quality or high price because of an advertisement.For example, some advertisers have appealed to people's desire for better fuel economy for their cars by advertising automotive productsthat improve gasoline mileage.Some of the products work.Others are worthless anda waste of consumers' money.Sometimes advertising is intentionally misleading.A few years ago a brand of bread was offered to dieters (节食者) with the message that there were fewer calories in every slice.It turned out that the bread was not dietetic (适合于节食的), but just regular bread.There were fewer calories because it was sliced very thin, but there were the same number of calories in every loaf.On the positive side, emotional appeals may respond to a consumer's real concerns.Consider fire insurance.Fire insurance may be sold by appealing to fearof loss.But fear of loss is the real reason for fire insurance.The security of knowing that property is protected by insurance makes the purchase of fire insurancea worthwhile investment for most people.If consumers consider the quality of the insurance plans as well as the message in the ads, they will benefit from the advertising.Each consumer must evaluate her or his own situation.Are the benefits of the product important enough to justify buying it? Advertising is intended to appealto consumers, but it does not force them to buy the product.Consumers still controlthe final buying decision.5.Advertising can persuade the consumer to buy worthless products by _______.A.stressing their high qualityB.convincing him of their low priceC.maintaining a balance between quality and priceD.appealing to his buying motives6.The reason why the bread advertisement is misleading is that _______.A.thin slices of bread could contain more caloriesB.the loaf was cut into regular slicesC.the bread was not genuine breadD.the total number of calories in the loaf remained the same7.Which statement is True according to the passage?A.sometimes advertisements really sell what the consumer needs .B.advertisements occasionally force consumers into buying things they don't need.C.the buying motives of consumers are controlled by advertisements.D.fire insurance is seldom a worthwhile investment.8.It can be inferred from the passage that a smart consumer should _______.A.think carefully about the benefits described in the advertisementsB.guard against the deceiving nature of advertisementsC.be familiar with various advertising strategiesD.avoid buying products that have strong emotional appealCThe way we do things round hereSome years ago, I was hired by an American bank.I received a letter from the head of the Personnel Department that started, "高考学习网 John, I am quite pleased that you have decided to join us." That "quite" saddened me.I thought he was saying "we're kind of pleased you decided to join us although I wish we had hired someone else." Then I discovered that in American English "quite" sometimes means "very", while in British English it means "fairly".So the first lesson about working in other countries is to learn the language and by that I don't just mean the words people speak.It is body language, dress, manners, ideas and so on.The way people do things highlights many of the differences we see between cultures(文化).Some of these differences may be only on the surface-dress, food and hours of work-while others may be deeper and take longer to deal with.Mostly, it is just a question of getting used to the differences and accepting them, like the climate (气候),while getting on with business.Some of the differences may be an improvement.People are more polite; the service is better; you ask for something to be done and it happens without having to ask again.However, other differences can be troubling, like punctuality(准时).If you invite people to a party at 7 o'clock your guests will consider it polite to turn up exactly on time in Germany, five minutes early in theAmerican Midwest, an hour early in Japan, 15 minutes afterwards in the UK, up to an hour afterwards in Italy and some time in the evening in Greece.I prefer not to use the word "late" because there is nothing wrong with the times people arrive.It is simply the accepted thing to do in their own country.9.The author was unhappy as mentioned in Paragraph 1 because he thought______.A.the American bank didn't think much of himB.the American bank might hire another personC.it's difficult to get used to American cultureD.it's easy to misunderstand Americans10.The word "highlights" in Paragraph 2 probably means_____.A.encourages B.helps to narrowC.increases D.draws attention to11.According to the author, what should we do with most cultural differences?A.Ask the native people for help.B.Understand and accept them.C.Do things in our own way.D.Do in-depth research.12.When invited to a party the people who are usually punctual are______.A.Italians B.Germans C.Greeks D.the BritishDIn a world with limited land, water and other natural resources (资源), the harm from the traditional business model is on the rise.Actually, the past decades has seen more and more forests disappearing and globe becoming increasingly warm.People now realize that this unhealthy situation must be changed, and that we must be able to develop in sustainable (可持续的) ways.That means growth with low carbon or development of sustainable products.In other words, we should keep the earth healthy while using its supply of natural resources.Today, sustainable development is a proper trend in many countries.According to a recent study, the global market for low-carbon energy will become three times bigger over the next decades.China, for example, has set its mind on leading that market, hoping to seize chances in the new round of the global energy revolution.It is now trying hard to make full use of wind and solar energy, and is spending a huge amount of money making electric cars and high-speed trains.In addition, we are also seeing great growth in the global markets for sustainable products such as palm oil (棕榈油), which is produced without cutting down valuable rainforest.In recent years the markets for sustainable products have grown by more than 50%.Governments can fully develop the potential of these new markets.First, they can set high targets for reducing carbon emissions (排放) and targets for saving and reusing energy.Besides, stronger arrangement of public resources like forests can also help to speed up the development.Finally, governments can avoid the huge expenses that are taking us in the wrong direction, and redirecting some of those expenses can accelerate the change from traditional model to a sustainable one.The major challenge of this century is to find ways to meet the needs of growing population within the limits if this single planet.That is no small task, but it offers abundant new chances for sustainable product industries.13.The traditional business model is harmful because of all the following EXCEPT that ______.A.It makes the world warmer B.it consumes natural resources C.it brings severe damage to forests D.it makes growth hard to continue14.What can we infer from Paragraph 2?A.China lacks wind and solar energy.B.China is the leader of the low-carbon market.C.High-speed trains are a low-carbon development.D.Palm oil is made at the cost of valuable forests.15.To full develop the low-carbon markets, government can ______.A.cut public expenses B.forbid carbon emissionC.develop public resources D.encourage energy conservation 16.What is the main purpose of the passage?A.To introduce a new business model.B.To compare two business models.C.To predict a change of the global market.D.To advocate sustainable development.EHuman remains of ancient settlements will be reburied and lost to science under a law that threatens research into the history of humans in Britain, a group of leading archeologists(考古学家) says.In a letter addressed to the justice secretary, Ken Clarke, 40 archaeologists write of their “deep and widespread concern” about the issue.It centers on the law introduced by the Ministry of Justice in 2008 which requires all human remains unearthed in England and Wales to be reburied within two years, regardless of their age.The decision means scientists have too little time to study bones and other human remains of national and cultural significance.“Your current requirement that all archaeologically unearthed human remains should be reburied, whether after a standard period of two years or a further special extension, is contrary to basic principles of archaeological and scientific research and o f museum practice,” they write.The law applies to any pieces of bone uncovered at around 400 dig sites, including the remains of 60 or so bodies found at Stonehenge in 2008 that date back to 3,000 BC.Archaeologists have been granted a temporary extension to give them more time, but eventually the bones will have to be returned to the ground.The arrangements may result in the waste of future discoveries at sites such as Happisburgh in Norfolk, where digging is continuing after the discovery of stone tools made by early humans 950,000 years ago.If human remains were found at Happisburgh, they would be the oldest in northern Europe and the first indication of what this species was.Under the current practice of the law those remains would have to be reburied and effectively destroyed.Before 2008, guidelines allowed for the proper preservation and study of bones of sufficient age and historical interest, while the Burial Act 1857 applied to more recent remains.The Ministry of Justice assured archaeologists two years ago that the law was temporary, but has so far failed to revise it.Mike Parker Pearson, an archaeologist at Sheffield University, said: “Archaeologists have been extremely patient because we were led to believe the ministry was sorting out this problem, but we feel that we cannot wait any longer.”The ministry has no guidelines on where or how remains should be reburied, or on what records should be kept.17.According to the passage, scientists are unhappy with the law mainly because ______.A.it is only a temporary measure on the human remainsB.it is unreasonable and thus destructive to scientific researchC.it was introduced by the government without their knowledgeD.it is vague about where and how to rebury human remains18.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A.Temporary extension of two years will guarantee scientists enough time.B.Human remains of the oldest species were dug out at Happisburgh.C.Human remains will have to be reburied despite the extension of time.D.Scientists have been warned that the law can hardly be changed.19.What can be inferred about the British law governing human remains?A.The Ministry of Justice did not intend it to protect human remains.B.The Burial Act 1857 only applied to remains uncovered before 1857.C.The law on human remains hasn’t changed in recent decades.D.The Ministry of Justice has not done enough about the law.20.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A.New discoveries should be reburied, the government demands.B.Research time should be extended, scientists require.C.Law on human remains needs thorough discussion, authorities say.D.Law could bury ancient secrets for ever, archeologists warn.DBBA DDAA ADBB BBDD BCDD。

浙江省2012高考英语二轮复习专题训练:阅读理解(99)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项。

AShe had been shopping with her Mom in Wal-Mart. She must have been 6 years old, this beautiful brown haired, freckle-faced image of innocence. Outside, it was pouring so heavily.We all stood there just inside the door of the Wal-Mart. We waited, some patiently, others annoyed because nature messed up their hurried day. I got lost in the sound and sight of the heavens washing away the dirt and dust of the world.Her voice was so sweet that it broke the hypnotic trance (昏昏欲睡) we were all caught in. “Mom,let’s run through the rain,” she said.“No,honey. We’ll wait until it slows down a bit,” Mom replied.This young child waited about another minute and repeated: “Mom,let’s run through the rain. ”“We’ll get soaked if we do,” Mom said.“No,we won’t,Mom. That’s not what you said this morning,” the young girl said as she tore at her Mom’s arm.“This mo rn ing? When did I say we could run through the rain and not get wet?”“Don’t you remember? When you were talking to Daddy about his cancer, you said if God can get us through this, he can get us through anything!”The entire crowd stopped dead silent. I dare say you couldn’t hear anything but the rain. We all stood silently. No one came or left in the next few minutes. Mom paused and thought for a moment about what she would say.Now some would laugh it off and scold her for being silly. Some might even ignore what was said. But this was a moment of affirmation in a young child’s lifetime when innocent trust can be developed so that it will bloom into faith. “ Honey, you are absolutely right. Let’s run through the rain. If get wet, well maybe we just need washing, ” Mom said. Then off they ran.We all stood watching, smiling and laughing as they rushed past the cars and they held their shopping bags over their heads just in case. They got soaked. But they were followed by a few who screamed and laughed like children all the way to their cars. And yes, I did. I ran. I got wet. I needed washing.You may lose your material possessions, your money and even your health, but no one can ever take away your precious memories. So don’t forget to make time and take the opportunities to make memories.1. Which of the following is the closest in meaning to the underlined word“ affirmation” ?A. happinessB. approvalC. disagreementD. love2. What do we know about the mother in the story?A. Her husband was cured of his cancer.B. She was strong-willed and considerate.C. She was in despair and pretended to forget what she said.D. Her daughter completely understood the situation her family was in3. Which of the following may the author agree with?A. The mother should not tell her child about the family misfortune.B. Parents should act more bravely than their children.C. Parents should grasp every opportunity to influence their children to grow well.D. Children should learn to show gratitude and understanding to their parents.4. The best title for the passage might be _ .A. Run Through the RainB. Be a Determined MotherC. Wait in the RainD. Have a wonderful experienceBFrom the health point of view we are living in an amazing age. We are free from many of the most dangerous diseases. A large number of once deadly illnesses can now be cured by modern medicine. It is almost certain that one day medicines will be found for the most stubborn remaining diseases. The expectation of life has increased greatly. But though the possibility of living a long and happy life is greater than ever before, every day we witness the unbelievable killing of men, women and children on the roads. Man vs the motor-car! It is a never-ending battle which man is losing.Thousands of people all over the world are killed or horribly killed each year and we are quietly sitting back and letting it happen.It has been rightly said that when a man is sitting behind a steering wheel (方向盘), his car becomes the extension of his personality. There is no doubt that the motor-car often brings out a man’s very worst qualities. People who are normally quiet and pleasant may become unrecognizable when they are behind a steering-wheel. They say, they are ill-mannered and aggressive, willful as two-year-olds and completely selfish. Their hidden angers and disappointments seem to be brought to the surface by the act of driving.The surprising thing is that society smiles so gently on the motorist and seems to forgive his behavior. Everything is done for his convenience. Cities are allowed to become almost uninhabitable because of heavy traffic; towns are made ugly by huge car parks; the countryside is ruined by road networks; and the deaths become nothing more than a number every year, to be easily forgotten.It is high time a world rule was created to reduce this senseless waste of human life. With regard to driving, the laws of some countries are unbelievable lenient (宽容的) and even the strictest are not strict enough. A rule which was universally accepted could only have an obviously beneficial effect on the accident rate. Hereare a few examples of some of the things that might be done. The driving test should be standardized and made far more difficult than it is; all the drivers should be made to take a test every three years or so; the age at which young people are allowed to drive any vehicle should be raised to at least 21; all vehicles should be put through strict tests for safety each year. Even the smallest amount of alcohol in the blood can damage a person’s driving ability. Present drinking and driving laws (where they exist) should be made much stricter. Speed limits should be required on all roads. Governments should lay down safety specifications for car factories, as has been done in the USA. All advertising stress power and performance should be banned. These measures may not sound good enough. But surely nothing should be considered as too severe if it results in reducing the number of deaths. After all, the world is for human beings, not motor-cars.5. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Traffic accidents are mainly caused by motorists.B. Thousands of people all over the world are killed each year.C. The laws of some countries about driving are to lenient.D. Only stricter traffic laws can prevent accidents.6. What does the author think of society toward motorists?A. Society laughs at the motorists.B. Huge car parks are build in the cities and towns.C. Victims of accidents are nothing.D. Society forgives their rude driving7. What does the author mean by saying “his car becomes the extension of his personality” inParagraph 2?A. Driving can show his hidden qualitiesB. Driving can show the other part of his personalityC. Driving can bring out his characterD. Driving can represent his manners8. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a way against traffic accidents?A. Perfect the road networkB. Stricter driving testsC. Test drivers every three yearsD. Raise age limit and lay down safety specifications.9. The author’s attitude towards the traffic situation is ______.A. confusedB. discontentedC. appealingD. doubtfulCOne night recently, I was driving down a two-lane highway at about 60 miles an hour. A car approached from the opposite direction at about the same speed. As we passed each other, I caught the other driver’s eye for only a second. I wondered whether he might be thinking as I was. How dependent we were on each other at that moment. I was relying on him not to fall asleep, not to be put off by a phone conversation, not to cross over into my lane and bring my life to a sudden end. Thoughwe had never spoken a word to each other, he relied on me in just the same way.Multiplied a million times over, I believe that is the way the world works. At some level, we all depend upon one another. Sometimes that dependence requires us simply not to do something like crossing over the double yellow line. And sometimes it requires us to act cooperatively, with friends or even with strangers.As technology shrinks our world, the need increases for cooperative action among nations. In 2003, doctors in five nations were quickly organized to identify the SARS virus, which saved thousands of lives. The threat of international terrorism has shown itself to be a similar problem, one requiring team action by police and intelligence forces across the world. We must recognize that our fates are not ours alone to control.In my own life, I’ve put great stock in personal resp onsibility. But, as time has passed, I’ve also come to believe that there are mom ents when one must rely upon the good faith and judgment of others. so, while each of us faces the case of driving alone down a dark road, what we must learn is that the approaching light may not be a threat, but a shared moment of trust.10. The author considers it very important ______.A. to drive with a companyB. to have personal independenceC. to gain certain responsibilityD. to share trust and cooperation11. The author said that they depended on each other in the same way because ______.A. the approaching car was very dangerousB. they both drove their car at a terrific speedC. he might be killed out of the other’s careless drivingD. it was dark and the road was not wide enough12. From the second paragraph, we know the author drew the important lesson from ______.A. only one experienceB. many similar experiencesC. a driver on a dark roadD. many friends and strangers13. The need for cooperation increases because ______.A. peoples’ fates can’t be controlled by themselvesB. certain viruses can spread in a quick wayC. terrorism can happen everywhere and every dayD. the world has become much more dangerous14. We can infer from the last paragraph that the author has ______.A. believed in one’s own personal responsibilityB. counted upon himself alone in everythingC. had no trust in others’ good faith and judgmentD. had accomplished a change on his viewpoint of lifeDWhen I was fourteen, I earned money in the summer by cutting lawns(草坪), and within a few weeks I had built up a body of customers. I got to know people bythe flowers they planted that I had to remember not to cut down, by the things they lost in the grass or struck in the ground on purpose. I reached the point with most of them when I knew in advance what complaint was about to be spoken, which particular request was most important. And I learned something about the measure of my neighbors by their preferred method of payment: by the job, by the month--- or not at all.Mr. Ballou fell into the last category, and he always had a reason why. On one day, he had no change for a fifty, on another he was flat out of checks, on another, he was simply out when I knocked on his door. Still, except for the money apart, he was a nice enough guy, always waving or tipping his hat when he’d see me from a distance. I figured him for a thin retirement check, maybe a work-relayed injury that kept him from doing his own yard work. Sure, I kept track of the total, but I didn’t worry about the amount too much. Grass was grass, and the little that Mr. Ballou’s property comprised didn’t take long to trim (修剪).Then, one late afternoon in mid-July, the hottest time of the year, I was walking by his house and he opened the door, mentioned me to come inside. The hall was cool, shaded, and it took my eyes a minute to adjust to the dim light.“I owe you,” Mr. Ballou, “but…”I thought I’d save him the trouble of thinking of a new excuse. “No problem. Don’t worry about it.”“The bank made a mistake in my account,” he continued, ignoring my words. “It will be cleared up in a day or two. But in the meantime I thought perhaps you could choose one or two volumes for a down payment.He gestured toward the walls and I saw that books were stacked (堆放) everywhere. It was like a library, except with no order to the arrangement.“Take your time,”Mr. Ballou encouraged. “Read, borrow, keep. Find something you like. What do you read?”“I don’t know.” And I didn’t. I generally read what was in front of me, what I could get from the paperback stack at the drugstore, what I found at the library, magazines, the back of cereal boxes, comics. The idea of consciously seeking out a special title was new to me, but, I realized, not without appeal-- so I started to look through the piles of books.“You actually read all of these?”“This isn’t much,”Mr. Ballou said. “This is nothing, just what I’ve kept, the ones worth looking at a second time.”“Pick for me, then.”He raised his eyebrows, cocked his head, and regarded me as though measuring me for a suit. After a moment, he nodded, searched through a stack, and handed me a dark red hardbound book, fairly thick.“The Last of the Just,”I read. “By Andre Schwarz-Bart. What’s it about?”“You tell me,” he said. “Next week.”I started after supper, sitting outdoors on an uncomfortable kitchen chair.Within a few pages, the yard, the summer, disappeared, and I was plunged into the aching tragedy of the Holocaust, the extraordinary clash of good, represented by one decent man, and evil. Translated from French, the language was elegant, simple, impossible to resist. When the evening light finally failed I moved inside, read all through the night,To this day, thirty years later, I vividly remember the experience. It was my first voluntary encounter(接触、遇到)with world literature, and I was stunned (震惊) by the concentrated power a novel could contain. I lacked the vocabulary, however, to translate my feelings into words. So the next week when Mr. Ballou asked, “Well?”I only replied, “It was good?”“Keep it, then,” he said. “Shall I suggest another?”I nodded, and was presented with the paperback edition of Margaret Mead’s Coming of Age in Samoa ( a very important book on the study of the social and cultural development of peoples--- anthropology (人类学) ).To make two long stories short, Mr. Ballou never paid me a cent for cutting his grass that year or the next, but for fifteen years I taught anthropology at Dartmouth College. Summer reading was not the innocent entertainment I had assumed it to be, not a light-hearted, instantly forgettable escape in a hammock (吊床) ( though I have since enjoyed many of those, too). A book, if it arrives before you at the right moment, in the proper season, at an internal in the daily business of things, will change the course of all that follows.15.The author thought that Mr. Ballou was ______________.A. rich but meanB. poor but politeC. honest but forgettableD.strong but lazy16. Before his encounter with Mr. Ballou, the author used to read _____________.A. anything and everythingB. only what was given to himC. only serious novelsD. nothing in the summer17. The author found the first book Mr. Ballou gave him _____________.A. light-heated and enjoyableB. dull but well writtenC. impossible to put downD. difficult to understand18. From what he said to the author, we can gather that Mr. Ballou _______________.A. read all books twiceB. did not do much readingC. read more books than he keptD. preferred to read hardbound books19. The following year the author _______________.A. started studying anthropology at collegeB. continued to cut Mr. Ballou’s lawnC. spent most of his time lazing away in a hammockD. had forgotten what he had read the summer before20. The author’s main point is that _____________.A. summer jobs are really good for young peopleB. you should insist on being paid before you do a jobC. a good book can change the direction of your lifeD. a book is like a garden carried in the pocket.1--4 BBCA 5--9 DDAAB 10--14 DCBAD 15--20 BACCBC。

2012年英语二阅读理解及解析

2012年英语二阅读理解及解析

2012年英语二 Text 11---Homework has never been terribly popular with students and even many parents, but in recent years it has been particularly scorned. School districts across the country, most recently Los Angeles Unified, are revising(修改) their thinking on his educational ritual(例行公事). Unfortunately, L.A. Unified has produced an inflexible (不可变更的) policy which mandates(批准) that with the exception of some advanced courses, homework may no longer count for more than 10% of a student’s academic grade。

家庭作业从来就没有受到学生甚至家长的真正欢迎,但最近几年来,家庭作业却受到人们的鄙视。

全国的学校都在修改家庭作业的相关惯例做法。

不幸的是,洛杉矶学区通过了一项不可变更的政策:除了高等课程,家庭作业在学分中所占比例不可以超过10%。

21.It is implied in paragraph 1 that nowadays homework_____。

[A] is receiving more criticism[B] is no longer an educational ritual(绝对)[C] is not required for advanced courses(正反)[D] is gaining more preferences(正反) 2---This rule is meant to address the difficulty that students from impoverished or chaotic homes might have in completing their homework. But the policy is unclear and contradictory. Certainly, no homework should be assigned that students cannot do without expensive equipment. But if the district is essentially giving a pass to students who do not do their homework because of complicated family lives, it is going riskily close to the implication that standards need to be lowered for poor children。

The culprit is climate change, and some researchers found that rising temperatures are having harmful effects on at least five species of rabbit in the US,Take the Lower Keys Marsh rabbit, for instance. An endangered species that lives in the Lower Florida Keys, this species of cottontail is a great swimmer -- it lives on the islands! -- but it is already severely affected by development and now by rising sea levels. According to the Center for Biological Diversity, an ocean level rise of only 0.6 meters will send these ~ys jumping to higher ground and a 0.9-meter rise would wipe out their habitat (栖息地) completely.The snowshoe hare, on the other hand, has a color issue. Most of these rabbits change their fur color from white inthe wintertime to brown in the summer, each designed to give them better cover f rom predators (~I~’) ~ As the number of days with snow decreases all across the country, however, more and more bunnies are being left in white fur during brown dirt days of both fall and spring, making them an easier mark for predators. Researchers know that the color change is controlled by the number of hours of sunlight, but whether the rabbit will be able to adapt quick enough to survive is a big question. The National Wildlife Federation has reported that hunters have noticed their numbers are already markedly down.American pikas or rock rabbits, a relative of rabbits and hares, might be the first of these species to go extinct due to climate change. About 7-8 inches long, pikas live high in the cool. damp mountains west of the Rocky Mountains. As global temperatures rise, they would naturally migrate (J~2~) to higher ground -- but they already occupy the mountaintops. They can’t go any higher. The National Wildlife Federation reports that they might not be able to stand the new temperatures as their habitat heats up.The volcano rabbit has the same problem. These rabbits live on the slopes of volcanoes in Mexico, andrecent studies have shown that the lower range of their habitat has already shifted upward about 700 meters, but there are not suitable plants for them to move higher, so they are stuck in the middle. Scientists are concerned about their populations.Native to the US, pygmy rabbits weigh less than 1 pound and live in the American West. They are believed to be the smallest rabbits in the world. Their habitats have been destroyed by development. Several populations, such as the Columbia Basin pygmy, almost went extinct and were saved by zoo breeding programs. Pygmy rabbits also rely on winter cover by digging tunnels through the snow to escape predators, but lesser snowfall is leaving them exposed.All of this gives new meaning to dressing up in a giant bunny costume this Easter.41. The writer mentions Easter at the beginning of the passage in order toA. show the importance of Easter DayB. introduce the issue about bunniesC. remind people of Easter traditionsD. discuss the relationship between Easter and bunnies42. The word “culprit” (Paragraph 2) is closest inmeaning to_________A. criminalB. judgeC. victimD. producer43. According to the passage, some rabbits can now be easily discovered by predators because theyA. are exposed to more skillful huntersB. have moved to habitats with fewer plantsC. haven’t adapted themselves to climate changeD. can’t change their fur color into white in the fall and the spring44. The problem faced by volcano rabbits and rock rabbits is thatA. both are affected by less snowB. both are affected by rising sea levelsC. neither can find enough foodD. neither can migrate to higher places45. Which best describes the writer’s tone in the passage?A. Approving.B. Concerned.C. Enthusiastic.D. Doubtful.BBelow is a selection about Guinness(吉尼斯)World Records.Top 6 Unusual Guinness World Records♦Fastest 100 m running on all foursThe 2008 Guinness World Records Day was, according to CWR, their biggest day of record-breaking ever, I- h more than 290.000 people taking put in record attempts in 15 different countries.

Such sad events happen over and over in high schools across the country. In fact, according to an official report on youth violence, "In our country today, the greatest threat to the lives of children and adolescents is not disease or starvation or abandonment, but the terrible reality of violence". Given that this is the case, why aren't students taught to manage conflict the way they are taught to solve math problems, drive cars, or stay physically fit?First of all, students need to realize that conflict is unavoidable. A report on violence among middle school and high school students indicates that most violent incidents between students begin with a relatively minor insult (侮辱). For example, a fight could start over the fact that one student eats a peanut butter sandw ich each lunchtime. Laughter over the sandwich can lead to insults, which in turn can lead to violence. The problem isn't in the sandwich, but in the way students deal with the conflict. Once students recognize that conflict is unavoidable,they can practice the golden rule of conflict resolution (解决) stay calm. Once the student feels calmer, he or she should choose words that will calm the other person down as well. Rude words, name-calling, and accusation only add fuel to the emotional fir On the other hand, soft words spoken at a normal sound level can put out the fire before it explodes out of control.After both sides have calmed down, they can use another key strategy for conflict resolution; listening. Listening allows the two sides to understand each other. One person should describe his or her side, and the other person should listen without interrupting. Afterward, the listener can ask non-threatening questions to clarify the speaker's position. Then the two people should change roles.Finally, students need f. consider what they are hearing. This doesn't mean trying to figure out what's wrong with the other person. It means understanding what the real issue is and what both sides are trying to accomplish. For example, a shouting match over a peanut butter sandwich might happen because one person thinks the other person is unwilling to try new things. Students need to ask themselves questions such as these: How did this start?What do I really want? What am I afraid off As the issue becomes clearer, the conflict often simply becomes smaller. Even if it doesn't, careful thought helps both sides figure out a mutual solution.There will always be conflict in schools, but that doesn't mean there needs to be violence. After students in Atlanta started a conflict resolution program, according to Educators for Social Responsibility, "64 percent of the teachers reported less physical violence in the classroom;75 percent of the teachers reported an increase in student cooperation; and 92 percent of the students felt better about themselves". Learning to resolve conflicts can help students deal with friends,. teachers. parents, bosses, and coworkers. In that way, conflict resolution is a basic life skill that should be taught in schools across the country.50. ___________ This article is mainly about .A. the lives of school childrenB. the cause of arguments in schoolsC. how to analyze youth violenceD. how to deal with school conflicts51. ______________ From Paragraph 2 we can learn that________ _____ .A. ______________ violence is more likely to occur atlunchtimeB. ______________ a small conflict can lead to violenceC. ______________ students tend to lose their temper easilyD. ______________ the eating habit of a student is often the cause of a fight52. Why do students need to ask themselves the questions stated in Paragraph 5?A. T o find out who to blame.B. To get ready to buy new things.C. T o make clear what the real issue is.D. To figure out how to stop the shouting match.53. ____________________________ After the conflict resolution program was started in Atlanta, it was found that______.A. there was a decrease in classroom violenceB. there was less student cooperation in the classroomC. m ore teachers fell better about themselves in schoolsD. t he teacher-student relationship greatly improved54. _________________ T he writer’s purpose for writing this article is to_______.A. complain about problems in school educationB. teach students different strategies for school lifeC. advocate teaching conflict management in schoolsD. inform teachers of the latest studies on school violenceDAs a young boy, I sometimes traveled the country roads with my dad. He was a rural mill carrier, and on Saturdays he would ask me to go with him. Driving through the countryside was always an adventure: There were animals to see, people to visit, and chocolate cookies if you knew where to stop, and Dad did.In the spring, Dad delivered boxes full of baby chickens, and when 1 was a boy it was such a fun to stick your finger 'through one of the holes of the boxes and let the baby birds peck on your fingers.On Dad' s final day of work, it took him well into the evening to complete his rounds because at least one member from each family was waiting at their mailbox to thank him for his friendship and his years of service. "Two hundred and nineteen mailboxes on my route." he used to say, "and a story at every one. " One lady had no mailbox, so Dad took the mail in to her every day because she was nearly blind. Once inside, he read her mail and helped her pay her bills.Mailboxes were sometimes used for things other than mail. One note left in a mailbox read. "Nat, take these eggs to Marian; she's baking a cake and doesn't have any eggs. " Mailboxes might be buried in the snow, or broken, or lying on the groom:. bat the mail was always delivered On cold days Dad might find one of his customers waiting for him with a cup of hot chocolate. A young wrote letters but had no stamps, so she left a few button on the envelope in the mailbox; Dad paid for the stamps. One businessman used to leave large amounts of cash in his mailbox for Dad to take to the bank. Once, the amount came to 8 32,000.A dozen years ago, when I traveled back to my hometown on the sa d occasion of Dad’s death, the mailboxes along the way reminded me of some of his stories. I thought I knew them all, but that wasn't the case. As I drove home, I noticed two lamp poles, one on each side of the street. When my dad was around, those poles supported wooden boxes about four feet off the ground. One box was painted green and the other was red, and each had a long narrow hole at the top with white lettering: SANTA CLAUS, NORTH POLE. For years children had dropped letters to Santa through those holes.I made a turn at the comer and drove past the post officeand across the railroad tracks to our house. Mom and I were sitting at the kitchen table when I heard footsteps. There, at the door, stood Frank Townsend, Dad's postmaster and great friend for many years. So we all sat down at the table and began to tell stories.At one point Frank looked at me with tears in his eyes. " What are we going to do about the letters this Christmas?" he asked."The letters?"'I guess you never knew. ""Knew what?"" Remember, when you were a kid and you used to put your letters to Santa in those green and red boxes on Main Street? It was your dad who answered all those letters every year. "I just sat there with tears in my eyes. It wasn’t hard for me to imagine Dad sitting at the old table in our basement reading those letters and answering each one. I have since spoken with several of the people who received Christmas letters during their childhood, and they told me how amazed they were that Santa had known so much about their homes and families.For me, just knowing that story about my father was thegift of a lifetime.55. ____________________________ I t can be inferred from the passage that the writer regarded his travels with Dad us_____.A. great chances to help other peopleB. happy occasions to play with baby chickensC. exciting experience* with a lot of funD. good opportunities to enjoy chocolate cookies56. ______________________ The writer provides the detail about the businessman to show that_____.A. Dad had a strong sense of dutyB. Dad was an honest and reliable manC. Dad had a strong sense of honorD. Dad was a kind and generous man57. According to the passage, which of the following impressed the writer most?A. Dad read letters for a blind lady for years.B. Dad paid for the stamps for a young girl.C. Dad delivered some eggs to Marian.D. Dad answered children's Christmas letters every year.58. The method the writer uses to develop Paragraph 4 is______.A. offering analysesB. providing explanationsC. giving examplesD. making comparisons59. What surprised the children most when they received letters in reply from Santa Claus every year?A. Santa Claus lived alone in the cold North Pole.B. Santa Claus answered all their letters every year.C. Santa Claus had unique mailboxes for the children.D. Santa Claus had so much information about their families.60. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. The MailB. Christmas LettersC Special Mailboxes D. Memorable Travels第二节下面文章中有5处(第61~65题)需要添加小标题,请从以下选项中选出符合各段意思的小标题,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑,选项中一项为多余选项.A. S low Down Your LifeB. Escape Now and ThenC. S eparate Your ActionsD. A llow Yourself to Be WeakE. Relieve Pressure by Firmly Saying " No"F. Stop Expecting Everything to Be PerfectHow to Simplify Your LifeLess is more. This is why we say: reduce things by half instead of doubling them, get rid of junk instead of piling it up, relax instead of stressing, slow down instead of speeding up. Apply these principles in your everyday life in a conscious way. You will then find yourself well along on your journey to simplification.61. _When you concentrate on one task, you find you have energy that you didn't even know you had. Just imagine: you arc at a fair and you have to carry two heavy pigs over 100 yards. If you keep grabbing one and then the other, it will take forever, because one of them will keep slipping out from under your arm and running off. But if you tie one pig in a place, pick up the other, gather all your strength and make a dash for the finish line, pause for a moment, run bock and get the other one, and with great determination, carry the second pig to the finish line, then you can be sure of succcss.62. ______The pressure at work is on the increase in all occupations. In the modem nuclear family, the expectations that formerly would have been shared amongall the relatives are now concentrated on the individual partner.If you have the feeling that 24 hours per day are not enough for nil the things you need to do, then it’s not because the day has too few hours, but because you have too many activities. A simple fact that overloaded people often tend to forget. The solution is equally simple; refuse to accept so many work assignments in your private life or your working life.63. _“I can handle stress” is regarded as a pos itive statement in the world of work. People who can handle stress are given more and more to cope with —until one day they break.Pay careful attention to the signs that tell you that you arc under more stress than you can cope with. These signals came from various areas of life. You become ill, or your work efficiency decreases.If you have any of these symptoms, change your life goals and decrease your tolerance of stress. Say quite openly, "I can't manage that. "64. _"If only I were slimmer, more beautiful, richer, moreclever, then I would be happier. " This is a dream that makes a lot of people ill, depressed, and unhappy. Life has its flaws, defects, comets, and edges. Only those who accept this reality can lead a really full life.Of course there are activities in which errors are dangerous; driving a car, crossing the road. But life doesn't consist entirely of these things. In among them there is a lot of room for small and large mistakes.65.Successful people ail have their own places where they can withdraw in order to work. Find out which places improve your creativity. For me it's the train. When I know that I'm going to be traveling for four hours without phone calls and people knocking on my door, I find my mind is free and I can read or write complex articles. There can be problems working on the train, of course: if the person sitting opposite you keeps talking away, or if train trips make you tired (some people fall asleep after a few miles).(非选择题,共40分)第三部分:写作(共二节,满分40分)第一节:短文改错(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)。

AA.The Tokyo Metro and Toei Lines B.The Moscow MetroC.The London Metro D.The Hong Kong MTR2.________ is done with the purpose of making money.A.The Tokyo Metro and Toei Lines B.The Moscow MetroC.The London Metro D.The Hong Kong MTR3.We can learn from the passage that Shanghai Metro ________.A.carries the most people each dayB.is the world’s largestC.may be larger than the Chicago “L” in the futureD.is the busiest in the world4.How many subways carry more than 5 million people per day?A.2 B.3 C.4 D.5BArchaeology, like many academic words, comes from Greek and means, more or less, “the study of old things”.So, it is really a part of the study of history.However, most historians use paper evidence, such as letters, paintings and photographs, but archaeologists(考古学家)learn from the objects left behind by the humans of long ago.Normally, these are the hard materials that don’t break down or disappear very quickly—things like human bones and objects made from stone and metal.It is very unusual to find anything more than the hard evidence of history —normally, the bacteria in the air eat away at soft materials, like bodies, clothes and things made of wood.Occasionally, things are different.In 1984, two men made an amazing discovery while working in a bog called Lindow Moss, in the north of England.A bog is a very wet area of earth, with a lot of plants growing in it.It can be like a very big and very thick vegetable soup—walk in the wrong place and you can sink and disappear forever.The men were working when one of them saw something sticking out—a human foot! Naturally, the men called the police, who then found the rest of the body.Was it a case of murder? Possibly —buy it was a death nearly two thousand years old.The two men had found a body from the time of the Roman invasion of Britain.Despite being so old, this body had skin, muscles, hair and internal organs—the scientists who examined him were able to look inside the man’s stomach and find the food that he had eaten for his last meal!Why was this man so well preserved? It was because he was in a very watery environment, safe from the bacteria that need oxygen to live.Also, the water in the bog was very acidic.The acid preserved the man’s skin in the way that animal skin is preserved for leather coats and shoes.How did he die? Understandably, archaeologists and other scientists wanted to know more about the person that they called “Lindow Man”.His hands and fingernails suggested that he hadn’t done heavy manual work in this life—he could have been a rich man.They found that he hadn’t died by accident.The archaeologists believe that he was sacrificed to three different gods.5.Which language does the word “a rchaeology” come from?A.French.B.Greek C.Roman.D.German。

2012届高考英语二轮专题复习 阅读部分精选系列(二)

2012届高考英语二轮专题复习 阅读部分精选系列(二)

2012届高考英语二轮专题复习阅读局部精选系列〔二〕该题型的测试目的是从多方位多角度考查考生通过阅读获取信息、处理信息并进展书面表达的能力。

比传统的阅读理解题型更具综合性和主观性,更能表现对考生的综合语言运用能力的考查。

1、主旨概括:主要考查考生对文章内容的整体把握能力。

要想答好该题,考生必须有很强的概括能力或归纳能力,要善于寻找能够概括全文的主题段落或者主题句,剔除文中的细节事实或者作者所用的论据,即要分清主旨和细节,概括出来的中心意思一定要能够覆盖全文或整个段落,绝对不可太笼统离题太远或者以偏概全;文中标题格式可以是完整的句子,简洁的短语,也可以用问题的形式,同时要注意字数要求。

具体的表达可以先根据文章内容找出关键词,再在此根底上确定文章标题或者文章的main idea。

2、同义句替换:只有准确理解所给句子的意义,才能准确快速地找出原文中意义一样的句子。

3、填空:回答此类问题时,一定首先注意弄清楚上下文的逻辑关系,如递进、转折、并列、比照、因果等等;然后根据上下文的含义搞清楚空白处该填句子还是短语或者单词,再读上下文,最后确定答案。

4、翻译句子:在该类题目中要求翻译的句子往往是结果较为复杂或者包括一些特定习语的句子。

因此再翻译之前一定要先分析句子结构,并结合文章中心思想以与上下文弄清句子所在的语境,同时还要注意英、汉两种语言与其问题特征的差异,最后在忠实于原文的根底上,把画线局部的句子翻译成符合汉语表达习惯的句子。

5、封闭性问题:封闭性问题是指答案是固定或唯一的问题,一般可在文章中找到明确的答案或依据,包括常见的wh-questions。

6、开放性问题:开放性问题是阅读表达中主观性最强的试题,要求考生结合个人的观点、经验来回答相关问题。

下面通过一篇阅读表达实例对各种类型问题的答题技巧进展说明。

An American friend of mine who was high up in a big corporation had worked out a way of handling a flood of e-mails before most of us hadeven heard of the concept. If any information he was sent was vital enough, his lack of response would ensure these nder rang himup, if the sender wasn’t important enough to have his private number, the communication couldn’t be that important, my friend is now even more senior in the same company so the strategy must work.Almost every week now there seems to be a report suggesting that we are all being driven crazy by the bother of e-mail. If this is the case, it’s only because we haven’t developed an appropriate discrimination in dealing with it._________. Firstly, you junk nothing with an exclamation mark or a string of capital letters, or from any addres s you don’t recognize or feel confident about. Secondly, e-mails don’t a ll have to be answered. Because e-mailing is soeasy, there’s a tendency forcorrespondence to carry on for ever, but it is permissible to stop an endless discussion or to accept a point of information sent by a colleague without acknowledging it.Thirdly,a reply e-mail doesn’t have to be the same length as the original. We all have e-mail pals who send long, chatty e-mail, which are nice to receive, but who then expect an equally long reply. The charm of e-mail can consist in the simple, incomplete sentence, totallyregardless of the format of the letter sent by post. You are perfectly within the bounds of politeness inresponding to a marathon e-mail with a better reply.1.Which sentence in the passage is the closest in meaning to the following one? The possible existence of annoyance results from our inability to sort out e-mails ___________________________________________________________________2.Fill in the blank in Paragraph 3 with a proper sentence.(within 10 words )___________________________________________________________________3.What advice is given in the last paragraph? (within 10 words)____________________________________________________________________4.For what purpose does the author mention his American friend in Paragraph 1 ?(within10 words)____________________________________________________________________5.Translate the underlined sentence in the last paragraph into Chinese.____________________________________________________________________答案与解析:1.Which sentence in the passage is the closest in meaning to the following one? The possible existence of annoyance results from our inability to sort out e-mails 1. 答案:If this is the case, it’s only because we haven’t developed an appropriate discrimination in dealing with it.解析:该题为同意句替换题,细读所给句子,不难得出其意义“这些令人恼火的情况之所以存在,是因为我们没有对电子邮件进展分类的能力〞。

2012年全国高考英语试题及答案

2012年全国高考英语试题及答案

2012年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试英语第二部分阅读理解(满分45分)第一节语篇阅读(每小题2分)第一节阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

(每小题2分)(A)Cold weather can hard on pets, just like it can be hard on people. Sometimes owners forget that their cats are just as used to the warm shelter (住所) as they are. Some owners will leave their animals outside for a long period of time, thinking that all animals are used to living outdoors. This can put their pets in danger of serious illness. There are things you can do to keep your animal warm and safe.Keep your pets inside as much as you can when the weather is bad. If you have to take them out, stay outside with them. When you’re cold enough to go inside, they probably are too. I you must leave them outside for a long time, make sure they have a warm, solid shelter against the wind, thick bedding, and plenty of non-frozen water.If left alone outside, dogs and cats can be very smart in their search for warm shelter. They can dig into snow banks or hide somewhere. Watch them closely when they are left outdoors, and provide them with shelter of good quality. Keep an eye on your pet’s water. Sometimes owners don’t realize that a water bowl has frozen and their pet can’t get anything to drink. Animals that don’t have clean and unfrozen water may drink dirty water outside, which may contain something unhealthy for them.41. What do we learn about pets from Paragraph 1?A. They are often forgotten by their owners.B. They are used to living outdoors.C. They build their won shelter.D. They like to stay in warm places.42. Why are pet owners asked to stay with their pets when they are out in cold weather?A. To know when to bring them inside.B. To keep them from eating bad food.C. To help them find shelters.D. To keep them company.43. If pets are left on their own outdoors in cold weather, they may ___.A. run short of clean waterB. dig deep holes for funC. dirty the snow nearbyD. get lost in the wild44. What is the purpose of this text?A. To solve a problem.B. To give practical advice.C. To tell an interesting story.D. To present a research result.(B)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.L et’s start with the wind blowing from the 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 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.45. What should you consider first while sailing?A. Sailors’ strength.B. Wave levels.C. Wind directions.D. Size of sails.46. What does the word “It” underlined in Paragraph 4 refer to?A. The boat.B. The wind.C. The sail.D. The angle.47. 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.48. 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.(C)Facial expressions carry meaning that is determined by situations and relationships. For example, in American culture (文化) the smile is in general an expression of pleasure. Yet it also has other uses.A woman’s smile at a police officer does not carry the same meaning as the smile she gives to a young child. A smile may show love or politeness. It can also hide true feelings. It often causes confusion (困惑) across cultures. For example, many people in Russia smiling at strangers in public to be unusual and even improper. Yet many Americans smile freely at strangers in public places (although this is less common in big cities). Some Russians believe that Americans smile in the wrong places; some Americans believe that Russians don’t smile enough. In Southeast Asian culture, a smile is frequently used to cover painful feelings. Vietnamese people may tell a sad story but end the story with a smile.Our faces show emotions (情感), but we should not attempt to “read”people from another culture as we would “read” someone from our own culture. The fact that members of one culture do not express their emotions as openly as do members of another does not mean that they do not experience emotions. Rather, there are cultural differences in the amount of facial expressionspermitted. For example, in public and in formal situations many Japanese do not show their emotions as freely as Americans do. When with friends, Japanese and Americans seem to show their emotions similarly.It is difficult to generalize about Americans and facial expressiveness because of personal and cultural differences in the United States. People from certain cultural backgrounds in the United States seem to be more facially expressive than others. The key is to try not to judge people whose ways of showing emotion are different. If we judge according to our own cultural habits, we may make the mistake of “reading” the other person incorrectly.49. What does the smile usually mean in the U.S.?A. Love.B. Politeness.C. Joy.D. Thankfulness.50. The author mentions the smile of the Vietnamese to prove that smile can ___ .A. show friendliness to strangersB. be used to hide true feelingsC. be used in the wrong placesD. show personal habits51. What should we do before attempting to “read” people?A. Learn about their relations with others.B. Understand their cultural backgrounds.C. Find out about their past experience.D. Figure out what they will do next.52. What would be the best title for the test?A. Cultural DifferencesB. Smiles and RelationshipC. Facial ExpressivenessD. Habits and Emotions(D)ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia – One of the world’s most famous fossils (化石) – the 3.2million-year-old Lucy skeleton (骨骼) unearthed in Ethiopia in 1974 – will go on an exhibition tour abroad for the first time in the United States, officials said Tuesday.Even the Ethiopian public has only seen Lucy twice. The Lucy on exhibition at the Ethiopian National Museum in the capital, Addis Ababa, is a replica while the real remains are usually locked in a secret storeroom. A team from the Museum of National Science in Houston, Texas, spent four years discussing with the Ethiopians for the U.S. tour, which will start in Houston next September.“Ethiopia’s rich culture of both the past and today, is one of the best kept secrets in the world,”said Joel Bartsch, director of the Houston museum.The six-year tour will also go to Washington, New York, Denver and Chicago. Officials said six other U.S. cities may be on the tour. But they said plans had not been worked out.Travelling with Lucy will be 190 other fossils.Lucy, her name taken from a Beatles song that played in a camp the night of her discovery, is part of the skeleton of what was once a 312-foot-tall ape-man (猿人).53. The author writes this text mainly to ___ .A. introduce a few U.S. museumsB. describe some research workC. discuss the value of an ape-manD. report a coming event54. What does the words “a replica” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A. A painting of the skeleton.B. A photograph of LucyC. A copy of the skeleton.D. A written record of Lucy.55. How many cities has Lucy’s U.S. tour plan already included?A. Four.B. Five.C. Six.D. Eleven.56. What was the skeleton named after?A. An ape-man.B. A song.C. A singer.D. A camp.(E)Make Up Your Mind to SucceedKind-hearted parents have unknowingly left their children defenseless against failure. The generation born between 1980 and 2001 grew up playing sports where scores and performance were played down because “everyone’s winter.” And their report cards sounded more positive (正面的) than ever before. As a result, Stanford University professor Carol Dweck, PhD, calls them “the overpraised generation.”Dweck has been studying how people deal with failure for 40 years. Her research has led her to find out two clearly different mind-sets that have a great effect on how we react to it. Here’s how they work:A fixed mind-set is grounded in the belief that talent (才能) is genetic –you’re a born artist, point guard, or numbers person. The fixed mind-set believes it’s sure to succeed without much effort and regards failure as personal shame. When things get difficult, it’s quick to blame, lie, and even stay away from future difficulties.On the other hand, a growth mind-set believes that no talent is entirely heaven-sent and that effort and learning make everything possible. Because the ego (自尊) isn’t on the line as much, the growth mind-set sees failure as a chance rather than shame. When faced with a difficulty, it’s quick to rethink, change and try again. In fact, it enjoys this experience.We are all born with growth mind-sets. (Otherwise, we wouldn’t be able to live in the world.) But parents, teachers, and instructors often push us into fixed mind-sets by encouraging certain actions and misdirecting praise. Dweck’s book, Mind-set: The New Psychology of Success, and online instructional program explain this in depth. But she says there are many little things you can start doing today to make sure that your children, grandchildren and even you are never defeated by failure.57. What does the author think about the present generation?A. They don’t do well at school.B. They are often misunderstood.C. They are eager to win in sports.D. They are given too much praise.58. A fixed mind-set person is probably one who ___ .A. doesn’t want to work hardB. cares a lot about personal safetyC. cannot share his ideas with othersD. can succeed with the help of teachers59. What does the growth mind-set believe?A. Admitting failure is shameful.B. Talent comes with one’s birth.C. Scores should be highly valued.D. Getting over difficulties is enjoyable.60. What should parents do for their children based on Dweck’s study?A. Encourage them to learn from failures.B. Prevent them from making mistakes.C. Guide them in doing little things.D. Help them grow with praise.第二节根据对话内容,从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

D那是一个周六,就像以前,这是忙碌的一天。

?外边父亲和Patrick先生在门边忙着砍柴。

在屋里妈妈和Patrick 夫人正在忙着春天的扫除。

男孩们则带着他们的风筝溜到屋后的空地。

现在他们甚至冒着他们的兄弟抓住后被打的危险,把他派去厨房拿更多的线。

好像今天风筝可以想飞多高就飞多高没有限制。

我的妈妈看着客厅,那里的家具因为大扫除而被搬乱。

她又一次望向窗外。

“女孩们,快来!让我拿着线去找男孩们,然后看一会他们风筝。

”在路上我们遇到了Patrick太太,她内疚的笑好像她正在和女孩子门一起做什么错事。

再也没有哪天补充回答:来自手机问问可以比那天更适合放风筝了。

我们把新拿来的线接在男孩的风筝上,它们飞得越来越高了。

我们几乎辨认不出那些橙色的小点就是风筝。

有时我们我们慢慢把风筝拉回来,看着它在空中上下翩翩起舞。

最后把它拉回地面也是为了下次以放飞的欣喜。

我们的父亲甚至也丢下了手中的工具加入了我们。

我们的妈妈展现成另外的一面,就像小女生们一样。

我想我们沉浸在快乐之中。

父母忘记了他们的责任和他们的威严;孩子们则忘记了他们每天打斗和那小小的嫉妒。

我恍惚感觉到“天堂可能就是这样子的吧”。

直到天渐渐黑了,我们才脱着困倦的脚步回家。

我想我们吃了晚餐,补充回答:来自手机问问我想我们吃了晚餐,我想家里肯定要做扫除,为了星期天家里可以看起来足够的干净和整洁。

奇怪的是我们以后再也没有提起过这件事了。

我觉得有些尴尬,因为其他人都没有想我那么兴奋。

我把这些记忆深深所在心里,在那里这些记忆貌似不存在可又偏偏就是在那里(意思就是那些记忆藏在那里,只是没有被唤起)时光飞逝,这天我正在我所住城市的公寓的厨房里忙绿时,我三岁的孩子哭着要求我带他去公园看鸭子。

我说:“我去不了,我要做这个做那个,当我都做完了我就累得走不动了。

”来看我们的妈妈,正在打量着她剥豆子。

“这是个好天气”她说,接着她提补充回答:来自手机问问提议:“天气风暖微风和煦。

你还记得我们放风筝的那天吗?”我心中突然一振,在火炉和水槽之间停下了手中的活。

第22 讲长篇阅读
2011年浙江省高考英语卷阅读理解部分首次出现了篇幅超过800词的阅读材料,很多学生对这一新变化感到焦虑和紧张。

其实,作为已经有一定英语阅读基础的高中生,没必要对长篇阅读材料产生恐惧心理。

阅读之前先放下畏难畏长的不良心理因素,阅读过程中带着耐心并结合如下一些解题技巧,就可以保证长篇文章理解的准确性。

(1)阅读前先审题干、读选项这是阅读理解的基本技巧,在阅读长文章时其作用更明显。

因为长文章信息量大,阅读时很容易看了后面忘了前面,而题干中含有命题的意图、问题的指向、答题的要求等,事先审读有利于阅读时抓住主要信息,减少回读次数,节约答题时间。

事先细读选项则有助于边阅读文章边作出鉴别,排除错误选项。

(2)抓住文章中心主线,增强语篇意识。

阅读材料篇幅变长,文章内容就会更充实,层次更多,考生很容易迷失阅读主方向。

因此考生要围绕着文章话题,理出主线索,然后再层层展开阅读文章各个段落内容。

(3)对长篇阅读文章理解的检测还是以细节理解题、主旨大意题、推理判断题、词(句)义猜测题等形式,这些题型考生不陌生,关键还是要从词汇理解、篇章结构、逻辑线索、作者情感、文化背景、题目设问细节查找、推导概括等方面加大语篇能力训练并关注长篇文章题眼的挖掘深度和题目的设问方式,在复习过程中适当进行限时阅读。

【答案及解析】50. D第二段中出现了两类人,一类人受到好的服务会跟其他12人讲,而受到差的服务的人就会跟20个人说,所以受到好的服务的顾客会提升公司业绩。

51. C该词组的字面意思是“手机的愤怒”,很多学生会选择A,但是看后文说了很多关于手机服务受阻的情况,引起了顾客很多的抱怨,所以让商家明白,对顾客满意变得越来越急需。

所以做此类题时要挖掘深层次的含义。

52. C A答案很有迷惑性,因为文中出现always returning calls,但是这儿是回电话,而不
是主动打电话;B也有出现,但是商家送更多的购物券作为“thank you note”的代名词,也不对;D promising more, 而文中是under­promising,所以选择C, 就是此段括号部分的解释。

53. A从第六段括号部分的“I know how you must feel”可知,与选项A“我知道你肯定很不开心”相符。

54. B第七段出现…while there is great potential for customer anger over delays caused by weather, unclaimed luggage and technical problems. Potential是解题的词眼,与likely对应。

55. C此题选用排除法。

A、D选项此篇文章并没有提到。

B、C选项显然是两个截然不同的意思,从文章最后一句话On the other hand, the more customers are promised, the greater the risk of disappointment.可知,公司承诺得越多越容易使顾客失望,故公司应少承诺,多做事。
