(2015·天津，C)One day when I was 12，my mother gave me an order：I was to walk to the public library，and borrow at least one book for the summer.This was one more weapon for her to defeat my strange problem—inability to read.In the library，I found my way into the “Children's Room.” I sat down on the floor and pulled a few books off the shelf at random.The cover of a book caught my eye.It presented a picture of a beagle.I had recently had a beagle，the first and only animal companion I ever had as a child.He was my secret sharer，but one morning，he was gone，given away to someone who had the space and the money to care for him.I never forgot my beagle.There on the book's cover was a beagle which looked identical(相同的) to my dog.I ran my fingers over the picture of the dog on the cover.My eyes ran across the title，Amos，the Beagle w ith a Plan.Unknowingly，I had read the title.Without opening the book，I borrowed it from the library for the summer.Under the shade of a bush，I started to read about Amos.I read very，very slowly with difficulty.Though pages were turned slowly，I got the main idea of the story about a dog who，like mine，had been separated from his family and who finally found his way back home.That dog was my dog，and I was the little boy in the book.At the end of the story，my mind continued the final scene of reunion，on and on，until my own lost dog and I were，in my mind，running together.My mother's call returned me to the real world.I suddenly realized something：I had read a book，and I had loved reading that book.Everyone knew I could not read.But I had read it.Books could be incredibly wonderful and I was going to read them.I never told my mother about my “miraculous”(奇迹般的) experience that summer，but she saw a slow but remarkable improvement in my classroom performance during the next year.And years later，she was proud that her son had readthousands of books，was awarded a PhD in literature，and authored his own books，articles，poetry and fiction.The power of the words has held.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文，作者通过自己成功的经历来说明读书可以矫正阅读困难的毛病。

(2014·新课标全国Ⅱ，A)Arriving in Sydney on his own from India，my husband，Rashid，stayed in a hotel for a short time while looking for a house for me and our children.During the first week of his stay，he went out one day to do some shopping.He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone.He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers，including his passport.He reported the case to the police and then sat there，lost and lonely in a strange city，thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organised again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one.Late in the evening，the phone rang.It was a stranger.He was trying to pronounce my husband's name and was asking him a lot of questions.Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can(垃圾桶)that had been left out on the footpath.My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents.Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers.Her parents had carefully sorted them out，although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents.At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people.We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way.【语篇解读】本文是记叙文，讲述了作者丈夫行李箱中的文件失而复得的事情。

(2015·浙江，A)From the very beginning of school we make books and reading a constant source of possible failure and public humiliation.When children are little we make them read aloud，before the teacher and other children，so that we can be sure they “know” all the words they are reading.This means that when they don't know a word，they are going to make a mistake，right in front of everyone.After having taught fifth-grade classes for four years，I decided to try at all costs to rid them of their fear and dislike of books，and to get them to read oftener and more adventurously.One day soon after school had started，I said to them，“Now I'm going to say something about reading that you have probably never heard a teacher say before.I would like you to read a lot of books this year，but I want you to read them only for pleasure.I am not going to ask you questions to find out whether you understand the books or not.If you understand enough of a book to enjoy it and want to go on reading it，that's enough for me.Also I'm not going to ask you what words mean.”The children sat stunned and silent.Was this a teacher talking？One girl，who had just come to us from a school where she had had a very hard time，looked at me steadily for a long time after I had finished.Then，still looking at me，she said slowly and seriously，“Mr.Holt，do you really mean that？”I said just as seriously，“I mean every word of it.”During the spring she really astonished me.One day，she was reading at her desk.From a glimpse of the illustrations I thought I knew what the book was.I said to myself，“It can't be，” and went to take a closer look.Sure enough，she was reading Moby Dick，in the edition with woodcuts.I said，“Don't you find parts of it rather heavy going？”She answered，“Oh，sure，but I just skip over those parts and go on to the next good part.”This is exactly what reading should be and in school so seldom is—an exciting，joyous adventure.Find something，dive into it，take the good parts，skip the bad parts，get what you can out of it，go on to something else.How different is our mean-spirited，picky insistence that every child get every last little scrap of “understanding” that can be dug out of a book.【语篇解读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。

(2015·浙江，B)Graphs can be a very useful tool for conveying information，especially numbers，percentages，and other data.A graph gives the reader a picture to interpret.That can be a lot more efficient than pages and pages explaining the data.Graphs can seem frightening，but reading a graph is a lot like reading a story.The graph has a title，a main idea，and supporting details.You can use your active reading skills to analyze and understand graphs just like any other text.Most graphs have a few basic parts：a caption or introduction paragraph，a title，a legend or key，and labeled axes.An active reader looks at each part of the graph before trying to interpret the data.Captions will usually tell you where the data came from (for example，a scientific study of 400 African elephants from 1980 to 2005)．Captions usually summarize the author’s main point as well.The title is very important.It tells you the main idea of the graph by stating what kind of information is being shown.A legend，also called a key，is a guide to the symbols and colors used in the graph.Manygraphs，including bar graphs and line graphs，havetwo axes that form a ually these axes arethe left side and the bottom of the graph.Each axiswill always have a label.The label tells you whateach axis measures.Bar GraphsA bar graph has two axes and uses bars to show amounts.In Graph 1，we see that the x－axis shows grades that students earned，and the y－axis shows how many students earned each grade.You can see that 6 students earned an A because the bar for A stretches up to 6 on the vertical measurement.There is a lot of information we can get from a simple graph like this (See Graph 1)．Line GraphsA line graph looks similar to a bargraph，but instead of bars，it plots pointsand connects them with a line.It has the sameparts as a bar graph—two labeled axes—andcan be read the same way.To read a linegraph，it’s important to focus on the pointsof intersection rather than the line segments between the points.This type of graph is most commonly used to show how something changes over time.Here is a graph that charts how far a bird flies during the first five days of its spring migration (See Graph 2)．The unit of measurement for the x－axis is days.The unit of measurement for the y－axis is kilometers.Thus we can see that，on the first day，the pipit flew 20 kilometers.The line segment goes up between Day 1 and Day 2，which means that the bird flew farther on Day 2.If the line segment angled down，as between Day 4 and Day 5，it would mean that the bird flew fewer kilometers than the day before.This line graph is a quick，visual way to tell the reader about the bird’s migration.Pie GraphsA typical pie graph looks like a circular pie.Thecircle is divided into sections，and each sectionrepresents a fraction of the data.The graph is commonlyused to show percentages；the whole pie represents 100percent，so each piece is a fraction of the whole.A pie graph might include a legend，or it might useicons or labels within each slice.This pie graph shows one month’s expenses (See Graph 3)．Food 25Movies 12Clothing 36Savings 20Books 7【语篇解读】 本文介绍了图表的结构和用途，并举例加以说明。

(2015·陕西，B)When the dog named Judy spotted the first sheep in her life，she did what comes naturally.The four-year-old dog set off racing after the sheep across several fields and，being a city animal，lost both her sheep and her sense of direction.Then she ran along the edge of a cliff(悬崖) and fell 100 feet，bouncing off a rock into the sea.Her owner Mike Holden panicked and called the coastguard of Cornwall，who turned up in seconds.Six volunteers slid down the cliff with the help of a rope but gave up all hope of finding her alive after a 90-minute search.Three days later，a hurricane hit the coast near Cornwall.Mr.Holden returned home from his holiday upset and convinced his pet was dead.He comforted himself with the thought she had died in the most beautiful part of the country.For the next two weeks，the Holdens were heartbroken.Then，one day，the phone rang and Steve Tregear，the coastguard of Cornwall，asked Holden if he would like his dog back.A birdwatcher，armed with a telescope，found the pet sitting desperately on a rock.While he sounded the alarm，a student from Leeds climbed down the cliff to collect Judy.The dog had initially been knocked unconscious(失去知觉的) but had survived by drinking water from a fresh stream at the base of the cliff.She may have fed on the body of a sheep which had also fallen over the edge.“The dog was very thin and hungry，” Steve Tregear said.“It was a very lucky dog.She survived because of a plentiful supply of fresh water，” he added.It was，as Mr.Holden admitted，“a minor miracle(奇迹)”．【语篇解读】一只狗追赶一只羊，不慎落入悬崖。

(2015·北京，C)Life in the ClearTransparent animals let light pass through their bodies the same way light passes through a window.These animals typically live between the surface of the ocean and a depth of about 3,300 feet—as far as most light can reach.Most of them are extremely delicate and can be damaged by a simple touch.Sonke Johnsen，a scientist in biology，says，“These animals live through their life alone.They never touch anything unless they're eating it，or unless something is eating them.”And they are as clear as glass.How does an animal become see-through? It's trickier than you might think.The objects around you are visible because they interact with light.Light typically travels in a straight line.But some materials slow and scatter(散射) light，bouncing it away from its original path.Others absorb light，stopping it dead in its tracks.Both scattering and absorption make an object look different from other objects around it，so you can see it easily.But a transparent object doesn't absorb or scatter light，at least not very much.Light can pass through it without bending or stopping.That means a transparent object doesn't look very different from the surrounding air or water.You don't see it—you see the things behind it.To become transparent，an animal needs to keep its body from absorbing or scattering light.Living materials can stop light because they contain pigments(色素) that absorb specific colors of light.But a transparent animal doesn't have pigments，so its tissues won't absorb light.According to Johnsen，avoiding absorption is actually easy.The real challenge is preventing light from scattering.Animals are built of many different materials—skin，fat，and more—and light moves through each at a different speed.Every time light moves into a material with a new speed，it bends and scatters.Transparent animals use different tricks to fightscattering.Some animals are simply very small or extremely flat.Without much tissue to scatter light，it is easier to be see-through.Others build a large，clear mass of non-living jelly-like(果冻状的) material and spread themselves over it.Larger transparent animals have the biggest challenge，because they have to make all the different tissues in their bodies slow down light exactly as much as water does.They need to look uniform.But how they're doing it is still unknown.One thing is clear：for these larger animals，staying transparent is an active process.When they die，they turn a non-transparent milky white.【语篇解读】本文是一篇科技说明文，文章解释了生活在海洋里的透明生物的特点、透明原理以及形成机制。

(2013·新课标全国Ⅱ，A)Doctors are known to be terrible pilots.They don't listen because they already know it all.I was lucky：I became a pilot in 1970，almost ten years before I graduated from medical school.I didn't realize then，but becoming a pilot makes me a better surgeon.I loved flying.As I flew bigger，faster planes，and in worse weather，I learned about crew resource management(机组资源管理)，or CRM，a new idea to make flying safer.It means that crew members should listen and speak up for a good result，regardless of positions.I first read about CRM in 1980.Not long after that，an attending doctor and I were flying in bad weather.The controller had us turn too late to get our landing ready.The attending doctor was flying；I was safety pilot.He was so busy because of the bad turn，he had forgotten to put the landing gear(起落架)down.He was a better pilot—and my boss—so it felt unusual to speak up.But I had to：Our lives were in danger.I put aside my uneasiness and said，“We need to put the landing gear down now！”That was my first real lesson in the power of CRM，and I've used it in the operating room ever since.CRM requires that the pilot/surgeon encourage others to speak up.It further requires that when opinions are from the opposite，the doctor doesn't overreact，which might prevent fellow doctors from voicing opinions again.So when I'm in the operating room，I ask for ideas and help from others.Sometimes they're not willing to speak up.But I hope that if I continue to encourage them，someday someone will keep me from “landing_gear_up”．【语篇解读】作者通过自己做飞行员的经历告诉我们在必要的时候要勇于发表自己的观点，尤其是医生和飞行员，这样才能避免事故。

(2015·四川，D)Their cheery song brightens many a winter's day.But robins are in danger of wearing themselves out by singing too much.Robins are singing all night—as well as during the day，British-based researchers say.David Dominoni，of Glasgow University，said that light from street lamps，takeaway signs and homes is affecting the birds' biological clocks，leading to them being wide awake when they should be asleep.Dr Dominoni，who is putting cameras inside nesting boxes to track sleeping patterns，said lack of sleep could put the birds' health at risk.His study shows that when robins are exposed to light at night in the lab，it leads to some genes being active at the wrong time of day.And the more birds are exposed to light，the more active they are at night.He told people at a conference，“There have been a couple of studies suggesting they are increasing their song output at night and during the day they are still singing.Singing is a costly behaviour and it takes energy.So by increasing their song output，there might be some costs of energy.”And it is not just robins that are being kept awake by artificial light.Blackbirds and seagulls are also being more nocturnal.Dr Dominoni said，“In Glasgow where I live，gulls are a serious problem.I have people coming to me saying ‘You are the bird expert.Can you help us kill these gulls？’．During the breeding(繁殖) season，between April and June，they are very active at night and very noisy and people can't sleep.”Although Dr Dominoni has only studied light pollution，other research concluded that robins living in noisy cities have started to sing at night to make themselves heard over loud noise.However，some birds thrive(兴旺) in noisy environments.A study from California Polytechnic State University found more hummingbirds in areas with heavy industrial machinery.It is thought that they are capitalising on their predators(天敌) fleeing to quieter areas.【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了一项调查研究的结果，由于人类制造的光线问题，越来越多的鸟类如知更鸟在晚上也会唱歌，这极大地影响了鸟的健康。

(2016·全国Ⅲ，C)If you are a fruit grower—or would like to become one—take advantage of Apple Day to see what's around.It's called Apple Day but in practice it's more like Apple Month.The day itself is on October 21，but since it has caught on，events now spread out over most of October around Britain.Visiting an apple event is a good chance to see，and often taste，a wide variety of apples.To people who are used to the limited choice of apples such as Golden Delicious and Royal Gala in supermarkets，it can be quite an eye opener to see the range of classical apples still in existence，such as Decio which was grown by the Romans.Although it doesn't taste of anything special，it's still worth a try，as is the knobbly(多疙瘩的) Cat's Head which is more of a curiosity than anything else.There are also varieties developed to suit specific local conditions.One of the very best varieties for eating quality is Orleans Reinette，but you'll need a warm，sheltered place with perfect soil to grow it，so it's a pipe dream for most apple lovers who fall for it.At the events，you can meet expert growers and discuss which ones will best suit your conditions，and because these are family affairs，children are well catered for with apple-themed fun and games.Apple Days are being held at all sorts of places with an interest in fruit，including stately gardens and commercial orchards(果园)．If you want to have a real orchard experience，try visiting the National Fruit Collection at Brogdale，near Faversham in Kent.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了英国的苹果节。

(2014·四川，D)With around 100 students scheduled to be in that 9 am Monday morning lecture，it is no surprise that almost 20 people actually make it to the class and only 10 of them are still awake after the first 15 minutes；it is not even a surprise that most of them are still in their pyjamas(睡衣)．Obviously，students are terrible at adjusting their sleep cycles to their daily schedule.All human beings possess a body clock.Along with other alerting(警报)systems，this governs the sleep/ wake cycle and is therefore one of the main processes which govern sleep behaviour.Typically，the preferred sleep/wake cycle is delayed in adolescents，which leads to many students not feeling sleepy until much later in the evenings.Th is typical sleep pattern is usually referred to as the“night owl”schedule of sleep.This is opposed to the “early bird”schedule，and is a kind of disorder where the individual tends to stay up much past midnight.Such a person has great difficulty in waking up in the mornings.Research suggests that night owls feel most alert and function best in the evenings and at night.Research findings have shown that about 20 percent of people can be classified as“night owls”and only 10 percent can be classified as“early birds”—the other 70 percent are in the middle.Although this is clearly not true for all students，for the ones who are true night owls this gives them an excellent excuse for missing their lectures which unfortunately fall before midday.【语篇解读】这是一篇议论文。

(2014·新课标全国Ⅰ，C)A typical lion tamer (驯兽师) in people's mind is an entertainer holding a whip (鞭)and a chair.The whip gets all of the attention，but it's mostly for show.In reality，it's the chair that does the important work.When a lion tamer holds a chair in front of the lion's face，the lion tries to focus on all four legs of the chair at the same time.With its focus divided，the lion becomes confused and is unsure about what to do next.When faced with so many options，the lion chooses to freeze and wait instead of attacking the man holding the chair.How often do you find yourself in the same position as the lion？How often do you have something you want to achieve (e.g.lose weight，start a business，travel more)—only to end up confused by all of the options in front of you and never make progress?This upsets me to no end because while all the experts are busy debating about which option is best，the people who want to improve their lives are left confused by all of the conflicting information.The end result is that we feel like we can't focus or that we're focused on the wrong things，and so we take less action，make less progress，and stay the same when we could be improving.It doesn't have to be that way.Anytime you find the world waving a chair in your face，remember this：All you need to do is focus on one thing.You just need to get started.Starting before you feel ready is one of the habits of successful people.If you have somewhere you want to go，something you want to accomplish，someone you want to become...take immediate action.If you're clear about where you want to go，the rest of the world will either help you get there or get out of the way.【语篇解读】本文以驯兽师在驯兽时用椅子挡在狮子面前来分散它的注意力使狮子不知所措为引子，联想到当人们面临多种选择感到困惑时该怎么办？1．Why does the lion tamer use a chair?A．To trick the lion.B．To show off his skills.C．To get ready for a fight.D．To entertain the audience.答案 A [事实细节题。

(2014·新课标全国Ⅰ，B)Passenger pigeons(旅鸽)once flew over much of the United States in unbelievable numbers.Written accounts from the 18th and 19th centuries described flocks(群)so large that they darkened the sky for hours.It was calculated that when its population reached its highest point，there were more than 3 billion passenger pigeons－a number equal to 24 to 40 percent of the total bird population in the United States，making it perhaps the most abundant bird in the world.Even as late as 1870 when their numbers had already become smaller，a flock believed to be 1 mile wide and 320 miles (about 515 kilometers) long was seen near Cincinnati.Sadly，the abundance of passenger pigeons may have been their undoing.Where the birds were most abundant，people believed there was an ever lasting supply and killed them by the mercial hunters attracted them to small clearings with grain，wait until pigeons had settled to feed，then threw large nets over them，taking hundreds at a time.The birds were shipped to large cities and sold in restaurants.By the closing decades of the 19th century，the hardwood forests where passenger pigeons nested had been damaged by Americans' need for wood，which scattered(驱散)the flocks and forced the birds to go farther north，where cold temperatures and spring storms contributed to their decline.Soon the great flocks were gone，never to be seen again.In 1897，the state of Michigan passed a law prohibiting the killing of passenger pigeons，but by then，no sizable flocks had been seen in the state for 10 years.The last confirmed wild pigeon in the United States was shot by a boy in Pike County，Ohio，in 1900.For a time，a few birds survived under human care.The last of them，known affectionately as Martha，died at the Cincinnati Zoological Garden on September 1,1914.【语篇解读】本文叙述了旅鸽逐渐消失的过程。
