乌鲁木齐2015高考英语阅读、完形填空选练(6)答案(四月)阅读理解Bedford Castle: The Home of Bedfor dshire RoyaltyBedfordshire in the south of England had its fair share of royal visits from the early stages of the 10th century onwards and the importance that the county placedon this is evident in the monuments, country houses, churches andany number of other structures that are still present there to thisday. Bedford Castle is one of those structures and, although it isnowhere near its former glory today, it is an essential attraction tovisit if you really want to grasp what its heritage means to thecounty!Bedford Castle was built initially as a fortr ess to help protectBedfordshire on the south of the River Ouse after the people in the local towns and villages had already been subdued. It was set up in 919 on the orders of King Edward the Elder, although it was destroyed by a Danish invasion years later. This was when it was rebuilt as the castle, of which the ruins exist today!There is a long history behind the castle that involves several kings as a result of the Duke of Bedford being an ardent(热心的)royalist(保皇主义者). Bedford Castle repeatedly offered the kings of England refuge against various storms in the form of ons laughts(攻击)from abroad and various domestic threats against them, and this is where much of its fame lies, even though the castle itself is no longer there. There are various tours of the ruins that you can take when you visit though and all of the guides are extremely knowledgeable. They will happily tell you tales of the mound(土丘)and the castle that preceded it.The mound is open t o the public all year round and is a proud part of the area’s heritage. It is recommended by the majority of people that you visit Bedfordshire because it tells you much about why the county is currently how it is. You can view the river from the mound and the surrounding settlements as well as the remains of the castle, and every m oment spent there is worth it so enjoy the history and the very n ature of the county itself!【文章大意】本文向大家介绍了英国的一个旅游胜地——贝德福德城堡。

Mr. Peter Johnson, aged twenty-three, battled for half an hour to escape from his trapped car yesterday when it landed upside down in three feet of water. Mr. Johnson took the onl y escape route—through the boot(行李箱).Mr. Johnson’s car had finished up in a ditch(沟渠)at Romney Marsin, Kent after skidding(打滑)on ice and hitting a bank. “Fortunately, the water began to come in only slowly, ”Mr. Johnson said. “I couldn’t force the doors because they were jammed against the wa lls of the ditch and I dared not open the windows because I knew water would come flooding in. ”Mr. Johnson, a sweet salesman of Sitting Home, Kent, first tried to attract the attention of other motorists by sounding the horn and hammering on the roof and boot. Then he began his struggle to escape.Later he said, “It was really a half penny that saved my life. It was the only coin I had in my pocket and I used it to unscrew the back seat to get into the boot. I hammered desperately with a hammer trying t o make someone hear, but no help came. ”It took ten minutes to unscrew the seat, and a further five minutes to clear the sweet samples from the boot. Then Mr. Johnson found a wrench(扳手)and began to work on the boot lock. Fifteen minutes passed by. “It was the only chance I had. Finally it gave, but as soon as I moved the boot lid, the water and mud poured in. I forced the lid down into the mud and scrambled clear as the car filled up. ”His hands and arms cut and bruised(擦伤), Mr. Johnson got to Beckett Farm nearby, where he was looked after by the farmer’s wife, Mrs. Lucy Bates. Huddled in a blanket, he said, “That thirty minutes seemed like hours. ”Only the tips of the car wheels were visible, police said last night. The vehicle had sunk into two feet of mud at the bottom of the ditch.【文章大意】本文记述了Mr. Johnson由于车祸被困于水下车内半个小时, 最后死里逃生的故事。

乌鲁木齐2015高考英语(四月)阅读理解、书面表达选练(4)阅读理解As children reach kindergarten and early grade-schoolage, they continue to become increasingly more awareof the wider world beyond home, school and theirneighborhood. If you haven’t already done so, this canbe an excellent time to teach your child about theenvironment, and how you can work together to gogreen as a family. If you’ve already introduced someeco-friendly habits in your home, here are some waysyour growing child can contribute more to the greeningof his world and beyond.My 7-year-old son discovered a magazine cover on the table that featured a cover line about polar bears being endangered because of global warming. I decided to be straight with him—I said yes, there is a danger to polar bears and other wildlife because of pollution. But I told him that we can all do something to go green and help make a difference, and perhaps help the polar bears and all living things on our planet.My grandmothers were immigrants(移民)who lived through wars in South Korea. They used to constantly remind me to turn off the lights, and even not to use too much toilet paper. As it turns out, these were great lessons. Have your child get into the habit of turning off lights and electronic equipment when he’s not using th em. A nice bonus(意外收获): reducing electricity use can help cut down your bills. A grade-schooler is old enough to understand that water comes from lakes and pools. Explain that wasting it can affect everyone who depends on that water. Wasting water also means wasting energy. A tap that runs for five minutes is equal to letting a 60-watt bulb run for 14 hours, according to the Environmental Protection Agency.Make it easier for your grade-schooler to go green by choosing different baskets for glass, metal, paper, and plastic. Have your child draw pictures of recyclable types to mark each basket. Once a season or more, have your child help you look for used clothing, books, toys and other things around the house to give away to local shelters(避难所).【文章大意】本文作者以自己的亲身经历告诉其他母亲应该如何在生活中帮助孩子变得更有环保意识, 让他们从小就有保护环境的观念。

Experts believe that storms and severe weather in North Ame rica and Asia have disrupted bird flight paths across the world and swept huge numbers of bird species towards the British I sles.Birds flying to the other side of the Atlantic or to the Pacific to l ay their eggs have been trapped in Britain and , adding their n umbers to native species, and causing great excitement in the bird-watching community.Local birdwatchers have already observed a total of 442 speci es in the British Isles this year. The highest number ever seen in one year is 445, in 2008.“We only need four more to break our record,” said Lee Evans , who runs the British Birding Association. “With three months to go I’m sure we’ll do it.”Last month an extremely rare Siberian Rubythroat bird was se en in , sending hundreds of birdwatchers north in the hope ofcatching a glimpse of this colourful Asian beauty. Another ver y uncommon bird, the bufflehead duck was cited in Cornwell a nd caused similar excitement. “I couldn’t believe it,” said Evan s. “The poor thing was completely knackered. It must have be en blown to England by the storms while trying to fly from Can ada to the southern for the winter. That’s 3000 miles!”Evans said that global warming over the past decade was pla ying a key role in transforming bird movements across the wo rld. In addition, melting Arctic sea ice may also be opening up bird flight paths over the North Pole, making it easier for birds from the Pacific — such as the slaty-backed gull and tufted puffin, both of which appeared in Lond on earlier this year — to reach Britain.Bird-watching is becoming an increasingly popular hobby among a ll age groups, added Evans. “A fifth of our members are under 18. This is a round-the-year hobby that you can enjoy from the kitchen window or fro m a car. More and more people are bird-watching, and as a result more and more unexpected species are being spotted in the British Isles.”1. What is the passage mainly about?A. The results of global warming.B. Changes in the British bird population.C. Increasing environmental pollution.D. Worsening British weather.2. The underlined word “knackered” is closest in meaning to _ _________.A. boredB. knockedC. spottedD. tired3. How many more bird species are needed to equal the British bird-watching record?A. 3.B. 4.C. 442.D. 445.4. According to the passage, which of the following birds com es from Asia?A. Slaty-backed gull. B. Bufflehead. C. Rubythroat.D. Tufted puffin.5. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a possible rea son for seeing more bird species in ?A. An increase in the number of birdwatchers.B. A growth in the number of native species.C. Storms due to global warming.D. The melting Arctic ice cap.【参考答案】1—5、BDACB阅读理解。

’s new buzzword, tuhao, may be in next year’s Oxford En glish Dictionary.“If its influence continues, it is very likely to appear on our upd ated list of words, ”said Julie Kleeman, project manager with t he editing team.In Chinese, tu means uncouth and hao means rich. It has traditionally b een referred to rich people who throw their weight around in ’s rural areas. In recent years, people borrowed the term to des cribe those who spend money in an irrational(没道理的)manner. The word gained credence in September with the launch of Apple’s new gold-colored iPhone, an item loved by ’s rich people. The color bec ame known as“tuhao gold. ”The word is now often used by th e online community to refer to people who have the cash but lack the class to go with it.Kleeman also mentioned two other Chinese words—dama and hukou—which may also be taken in the dictionary. Hukou means hous ehold registration in Chinese and has been widely used. Dama, meaning middle-aged women, was first used in the Western media by the Wall Street Journal in May when thousands of Chinese women we re buying up record number of gold. They were the driving for ce in the global gold market between April and June when the gold prices had slumped(下跌).“We have nearly 120 Chinese-linked words now in Oxford English Dictionary, ”she said. So me of them are: Guanxi, literally meaning“connection”, is the system of social networks and i nfluential relationships which facilitate business and other dea lings. Taikonaut is a mix of taikong,meaning outer space, and astronaut.The new words will be first uploaded on the official website be fore the dictionaries arrive. The online version is also renewed every three months. “It at least broke our old rules. It used to take 10 years to include a new word but now we keep the pacewith the era, ”according to John Simpson.【文章大意】在近期一档关于中国热词的栏目播出后, “tuhao”一词引起了《牛津英语词典》编著者的关注。

乌鲁木齐2015高考英语阅读、完形填空选练(12)答案(四月)阅读理解Hispanic Heritage Month(拉丁文化月)is the period when people recognize the contributions of Hispanic Americans to the United States and celebrateHispanic culture. Hispanic Heritage Week was approved byPresident Lyndon Johnson in 1968 and was expanded byPresident Ronald Reagan in 1988 to cover a 30-day periodstarting on September 15 and ending on October 15. Thelaw came into force on August 17, 1988.September 15 was chosen as the starting point for thecelebration because it is the anniversary of independence offive Latin Ame rican countries: Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Nicaragua. They all declared independence in 1821. In addition, Mexico, Chile and Belize celebrate their independence days on September 16, September 17 and September 18.Hispanic Heritage Month also celebrates the long and important presence of Hispanic Americans in North America. A map of late 18th century North America shows this presence, from San Francisco to Florida. Spanish explorers traveled further north along the Pacific Coast to Canada in 1774 and by the late 18th century they had established a military post on Vancouver Island, 350 miles north of Seattle. The Spanish sailed up the Atlantic Coast through the Chesa peake Bay in 1526, then called the Bahia de Santa Maria, about 80 years before the romanticized English encounter with Pocahontas. In the 1520s Spanish navigators also explored as far north as Cape Cod, Massachusetts, and the present site of Bangor, Maine. The Spanish settled in the southwest of North America in the 16th century and officially founded Santa Fe, New Mexico in 1610.About 47 million people in the United States are Hispanic Americans. Their families come from countries where people speak Spanish.Here are some ways you can take part in this special month.Move Your FeetMusic is a big part of Hispanic life. People don’t just listen. They get up and dance!Play a GamePinatas are toys filled with treats. Kids take turns trying to break a pinata with a stick. They pick up the treats that fall out.Wrap It UpThe tortilla is a popular food. It is a type of flat bread. It is often filled with meat, beans, tomatoes and cheese. Then it is wrapped up and eaten. Yum!Speak SpanishMany Hispanic Americans speak two languages—Spanish and English. Say“hola”. That means“hello”in English.【文章大意】本文主要介绍了美国拉丁文化月的一些情况。

乌鲁木齐2015高考英语(四月)阅读理解、书面表达选练(1)阅读理解(原创)The British people love talking about the weather.This hot summer, Europe was caught in the heat wave, andmany parts of China were also been struggling withrecord-breaking temperatures. Therefore, there’s plen ty for theBritish people to get excited about.But beside from a simple“hot”, what other ways are there todescribe the summer heat? Apart from phrases like“boilinghot”, there are many interesting expressions that relate to unbearably hot weather.Dog days of summerIn books and newspaper articles, the period from early July to mid-August is often referred to as the“dog days of summer”. Some think the expression means the weather is so hot that dogs go wild. But in fact, the expression comes from 16th century and refers to the days on which Sirius(天狼星)—the Dog Star—rises at the same time as the sun. The Romans associated the hot weather with this star and would sacrifice a dog every year in April to stop the anger of Sirius.So hot you can fry an egg on the sidewalkThis expression needs no explanation and although its origin is unclear, it hasn’t stopped thousands of curious tourists from testing if the saying is true, with the result that sidewalks in Death Valley, California—the hottest place in the US—are now littered with broken eggshells. Early in July, the local government asked tourists to stop their cooking experiments. Even so, it is actually possible to fry an egg on the sidewalk, so long as you use a frying pan with a lid and the temperature is at least 49℃.【文章大意】本文介绍了英语中描述炎热天气的几个习语。

阅读下列短文, 从给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D) 中, 选出最佳选项。
In presentday China,we can find two types of fast food—western food and Chinese food.However,not until the recent decade has western fast food become pop ular in China.Before the first hamburger walked its way into th e Chinese food market,we had little idea about such terms as hot dogs,pizza,potato chips,let alone KFC and McDonald's.It is the reform and openingup policy that has brought about the interflow of the food culture between and the western countries.Fast food,both Chinese food and western food,has several advantages.In the first place,fast food,as is characterized by its name,is fast.The food is always ready and fresh,waiting for its customers.This saves people's precious time,and consequently goes well with the tempo of life in modern s ociety.Secondly,it is very convenient.As we know,fast food restaurants are much the same as cafeterias.Custo mers may feel free to help themselves to any variety provided and eat to their hearts' content.Thirdly,fast food restaurants are environmentally comfortable.Clean d ishes,shiny tables,decent service and light music all stimulate people's appetite t o eat more.The above mentioned advantages make fast food become ro oted in almost all parts of the country and enjoy popularity am ong people.That's also why nowadays Singapore fast food,Turkish fast food and IndiaPakistan fast food have found their homes in China.As every coin has two sides,fast food also has its disadvantages such as lack of nutrition a nd dull taste.Nevertheless,these are minor points compared with its advantages.Since m ost people agree with fast food,it tends to grow more rapidly.1.What's the best title for this passage?.A.The Road to the Western Fast FoodB.The Growth of Fast Food inC.Singapore Fast Food inD.Every Coin Has Two Sides答案:B 从第一段中国人一开始对快餐了解较少,后来西方的肯德基、麦当劳进入中国,直到倒数第二段新加坡等国的快餐进入中国,看出该文是叙述快餐在中国的发展。

He quickly gathered his army and started off for the distant border, leaving his kingdom unguarded and without a ruler.On their long march, the King and his army made camp for the night wherever they could. One rainy day they stopped in a forest, seeking shelter under the trees. They unsaddled(卸鞍)their horses and steamed some peas, which they fed to their steeds in long narrow containers.A monkey in a tree nearby saw the horses being fed, and he came racing down, fille9d both paws with peas, then climbed quickly up to a branch and settled down to eat. But as he opened one paw, a single pea fell to the ground. Without hesitation, my monkey jumped from his branch to hunt for the lost pea, and in doing so,he dropped all the other peas in his paws.The King observed this foolish monkey and was greatly amused. He timed to his minister and asked: "Friend, what do you think of this monkey who would give up so much to retrieve so little?""That is the way of the foolish," replied the minister, "they will give up much that is certain for a little that is uncertain."Then he added, "And we, Great King, are we not like the monkey in the trees.

This year, the severe traffic jam resulted in a roadside wedding.The suffering of being stuck in traffic was possibly most strongly felt by Lv Kangzhou and his bride Yan Mengxia. By tradition, the groom drove early in the morning to the bride's home in Zhejiang province in East China to pick her up along with her family and take them to his family's hometown for the wedding. By 4 p.m., Lv's wedding was 90 minutes away, but his car had not moved an inch for a long time. Lv contacted the local radio to explain his difficult situation and ask for a traffic forecast. The radio host told Lv there was no way he could hold his wedding on time and offered to hold their wedding on the air. At 5:30 p.m., Lv and his bride said their vows on the side of the road while Lv's family and friends witnessed the ceremony while listening to the radio.Lv wasn’t the only person stuck in the Golden Week crowds. According to the state news agency Xinhua, 11.7 million people traveled by train Wednesday. It calculated that 120,000 people gathered at Tiananmen Square in Beijing to watch the flag raising ceremony. Last year, the Forbidden City in Beijing hosted 175,000 tourists on a single day during Golden Week, and the number is expecting to be even bigger this yearChinese internet users routinely complain about the Golden Week holiday every year.

The only active ingredient in the spray is caffeine, which is very similar to nicotine in structure. Each spray Sprayable Energy contains around a quarter of the amount of caffeine found in a cup of coffee, but apparently has the same effect as a full cup.“Sprayable Energy” website said: “The reason for this is our product isn't entirely metabolized(新陈代谢) by the liver before entering your system and becoming available to your body.”Sprayable Energy's website recommends that users apply the spray in places where th ey normally spritz perfume, such as wrists,the neck or behind the ears, but warns users not to exceed 20 times a day.It claims that after spraying the product on the skin, users will feel awake and focus without being over-excited,' which is common with coffee and energy drinks.pared with an energy drink or a coffee, what is good about “Sprayable Energy”?A. It makes no noise.B. It contains lower calories.C. It has a good taste.D. It contains many active ingredients30.Which of the body may not be suitable to apply “Sprayable Energy”?A. The neckB. Behind the earsC. WristsD. Mouth31.What can we infer from the text?A. “Sprayable Energy” contains caffeine as well as nicotine.B. The liver can metabolize in caffeine before it enters your system.C. Whenever you feel tired, you can spray the product.D. After spraying “Sprayable Energy”, you’ll get rid of tiredness.DThere are some strange and wonderful rules in law books around the world.

Not only could this keep you out of trouble, but it can also help you get the most out of your holiday.1.In Victoria, Australia, it’s illegal to change a light bulb unless you are a licensed electrician.

The Government consider it noise pollution.6.Running out of petrol is illegal on Germany's autobahn, and so is walking along it.

The fine is €80 (£65) for endangering other drivers.7.In Chicago, it is against the law to eat in a place that's on fireNo matter how good the pizza tastes, if the restaurant sets on fire – you can't stick around!32.According to the text, which of the following is legal?A.

suddenly came to life and tried to destroy the world?If you want to find out then you’d better watch the new movie,The Mummy:Tomb of the Dragon Emperor(《木乃伊III:龙帝之墓》).Thousands of years ago,China’s ruthless Dragon Emperor (played by Jet Li)had plans to take over the world.But he was tricked,‘a1ong with his 10,000 soldiers,’by a witch(Michelle Yeoh)and was forced to spend the rest of life trapped inside clay as a silent terracotta army.The army was long forgotten for many,many years.That is until Alex O’Connell(Luke Ford)discovers them.The young archaeologist is doing work in China when he is tricked into awakening the Han Emperor from his sleep.After sleeping for 2,000 years the Dragon Emperor understandably wants to make up for lost time.He starts trying to enslave the people of Earth.This is all Alex’s fault.So,what is a boy to do when he gets in trouble?Well,call his parents of course.Alex’s father,explorer Rick O’Connell(Brendan Frazier),knows a few things about fighting the undead.In the first two films in The Mummy series,0’Connell fought ancient warriors(战士)in Egypt and the Middle East.But now he needs to help his son in China.He brings along his wife,Evelyn(Maria Bello)and her brother,Jonathan(John:Hannah)who have all been with him on other adventures.The battle between good and evil(邪恶的)takes place in an adventure that races from the hidden,tombs of ancient China high into the cold Himalayas.Will the O’Connell family be able to save the world one final time or will the ancient Chinese emperor at last conquer (征服)all?The only way to find out is to go to Xi’an and keep an eye on those terracotta soldiers.Or you can just watch the movie 12 1.After woken up Dragon Emperor Wants to______.A.think over the rest of his lifeB.revenge himself on his

diploma in June 2014.But he has barely left the campus.He still eats in the canteens and studies in the classrooms.Living close is convenient and familiar,he said.Around almost every college and university in China are cheap apartments and bungalows for rent,where lots of graduates like Ye live.They live and look like enrolled students.but they aren’t.Such kind of graduates is called“school—drifters”.It became a popular search keyword and triggered wide media coverage and further academic research.“The number is increasing over the years.A simple reason is that each year the number of graduates rises,while the employment rate remains basically the same.A large portion of the unemployed become school—drifters.Some previously employed also come back after a short,unsatisfying,work experience,”according to Hu Jiewang,a sociology professor at Jiaying University in Guangdong province.Ye sees himself as a school—drifter.He said the real world is different from his ideal.He landed a job as a production assistant in a local jewelry company in March last year but quit two months later.“The 2,400一yuan($360)a month salary was high among my classmates,but the job was too tiring.I had only one day off every week and the working hours were too irregular,”he said.“Entering society made me feel hollow.”Hu said most of the school—drifters aim to enter grad sch001.Some hope to find a betterjob;some want to stay in big cities;and some are simply fearful of the intensely competitive job market.“Living on school resources,”Hu said,“is a way of cutting living costs.But they do have some resource conflict with currently enrolled students.’’Why don’t drifters return home?“From ancient times the Chinese have had the notion that ‘going out’and‘going to colleges’were good.Anybody coming back home without achievements is a loser,”Hu said.After graduation and entering the society,many graduates felt lost.As a result,the number who stayed in school—for further education,for better opportunities,or for the comfort—increased.24.“School—drifters’’ are formed partly because______. .A.students like the university life and the campusB.students don’t like to go out for a jobC.the number of graduate and unemployed workers is increasingD.the society requires them to do so before making their fortune25.Why does Ye abandon his job in a local jewelry company?A.The salary offered is far from his satisfaction.B.He isn’t pleased with the job in a local jewelry company.C.He thinks his classmates haven’t found one.D.The jewelry company turns him down.26.As“school—drifters”,they can take the advantage of school resources_____A.to reduce their expensesB.to make more friendsC.to decrease pressuresD.to enlarge their knowledge27.Through this passage the author wants to tell us_____.A.an increasing number of school—driftersB.a social conflict in the campusC.an effective way to deal with school—driftersD.a new social phenomenonCThe 18—meter—tall rubber duck on display in Beijing since September has attracted increasing numbers of visitors to the capital from around the country.The creation of Dutch artist Florentijn Hofman will bid farewell to the capital from Kunming Lake at the Summer Palace on Sunday.Li Linji,deputy head of the palace,one of two parks where the duck has been displayed in the city,said on Thursday it has

reminds people of childhood and happiness.It made its debut in the city on Sept 6 at the International Garden Expo Park before moving to the Summer Palace on Sept 23.The Rubber Duck exhibition‘was part of activities announcing Beijing Design Week,which ran from Sept 26 to Oct 3.Before arriving in Beijing,the giant duck was on display in 1 3 cities in nine countries.Data from the Beijing Design Week organizing committee show that 30,000 small rubber ducks so1d out during the National Day holiday.The committee has come up with an additional 20,000 that are expected to sell out before their giant counterpart leave Beijing.Imitations of the giant duck have also been on sale in parks and 0nline.On Thursday,three days before the giant duck’s departure,many vendors were still selling copies outside the Summer Palace .Many tourists were taking pictures of the duck while holding the imitations.Before the duck arrived in the city,a replica(复制品)wearing a green Vest and accompanied by seven big duck eggs appeared in the city’s Yuyuantan Park.Cities including Hangzhou,Chongqing,Wuhan,Shenyang and Wuxi have also reported the appearance of imitation duck products since May.28.From the text

“Children should not be left unsupervised(无人监督的)to play with a dog. ”say experts in this week’s British Medical Journal. Their advice is part of a review aimed at doctors who deal with dog bites.“Dog bites and maulings are a worldwide problem, particularly in children. ”write Marina Morgan and John Palmer. Every year 250, 000 people who have been bitten by dogs attend minor injuries and emergency units in the United Kingdom, and half of all children are reportedly bitten by dogs at some time, boys more than girls.Accurate death figures are difficult to obtain, but in the past five years, two to three cases a year have made news headlines.Based on the latest medical evidence, they advise doctors how to examine and treat a patient presenting with a dog bite. They discuss the risk of infection and when t o refer to specialist care. For travelers bitten abroad, they suggest assessing the risk of rabies(狂犬病).In terms of prevention, they suggest that children should be taught to treat dogs with respect, avoid direct eye contact, and not tease them. They should be taught not to approach an unfamiliar dog; play with any dog unles s under close supervision; run or scream in the presence of a dog; pet a dog without first letting it sniff you; or disturb a dog that is eating, sleeping, or caring for puppies. “Dog owners also need to change their behavior”, says Rachel Besser, a children’s doctor and lifetime dog owner, in an article.“It is clear that not all dog owners appre ciate that children should not be left unsupervised with a dog”, she says. Just as some parents are obliged to take parenting classes, she would like to see compulsive classes for expectant dog owners to teach them about the responsibilities of dog ownership. Educational programs are also needed to teach children about some precautionary behaviors around dogs.Finally, she would like to see vets advising dog owners about bite prevention, and doctors promoting bite prevention when treating patients who have been bitten by dogs.【文章大意】狗咬人, 尤其是狗咬小孩的现象尤其需要引起关注, 为此, 需要采取一定的措施。

阅读理解What does it mean to say that we live in a world of persuasion? It means that we live among competing interests. Your roommate’s need to study for an exam may take priority (优先) over pizza. Your instructor may have good reasons not to change your grade. And the object of your romantic/interest may have other choices.In such a world, persuasion is the art of getting others to give fair and favorable consideration to our points of view. When we persuade, we want to influence how others believe and behave. We may not always prevail — other points of view may be more persuasive, depending on the listener, the situation, and the merit of the case. But when we practice the art of persuasion, we try to ensure that our position receives the attention it deserves.Some people, however, object to the very idea of persuasion. They may regard it as an unwelcome interruption into their lives. Just the opposite, we believe that persuasion is unavoidable — to live is to persuade. Persuasion may be ethical (合乎道义的) or unethical, selfless or selfish, inspiring or degrading. Persuaders may enlighten our mind or prey on our vulnerability. Ethical persuasion, however, calls on sound reasoning and is sensitive to the feelings and needs of listeners. Such persuasion can help us apply the wisdom of the past to the decisions we now must make. Therefore, the most basic part of education is learning to resist the one kind of persuasion and to encourage and practice the other.Beyond its personal importance to us, persuasion is necessary to society. The right to persuade and be persuaded is the bedrock of the American political system, guaranteed by the First Amendment to the Constitution (美国宪法).10. According to the passage, persuasion means ________.A. changing others’ points of viewB. exercising power over other peopleC. getting other people to consider your point of viewD. getting people to agree with you and do what you want11. The underlined word in the second paragraph “prevail” means________.A. winB. failC. speakD. listen12. The passage states that some people object to persuasion because they think it is ________.A. a danger to societyB. difficult to do wellC. unwelcome behaviorD. never successful13. The passage mainly discusses ________.A. how people persuadeB. why people persuadeC. that persuasion is both good and badD. that persuasion is important and it is all around us【答案与解析】10. C 细节题。
