It was ascene that had been repeated many times in the theater’s 75-year history. Thistime, however, the cleanup was a little different. As one group of workerscarried out the rubbish, another group began removing seats and other theaterequipment in preparation for the building’s end.The filmclassic The Last Picture Show was thelast movie shown in the old theater. Though the movie is 30 years old, mostofthe 250 seats were filled with teary-eyed audience wanting to say good-bye tothe old building. Theater owner Ed Bradford said he chose the movie because itseemed appropriate. The movie is set in a small town where the only movietheater is preparing to close down.Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossiblefor the Plaza to compete. He added that the theater’s location(位置) was also areason. ＂This used to be the center of town,＂ he said. ＂Now the area ismostly office buildings and warehouses.＂Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested inturning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place. However, theseplans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the buildingand land to a local development firm, which plans to build a shopping complexon the land where the theater is located.The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors for thelast time.

Fourteen wolves were caught inCanada and transported to the park. By last year, the Yellowstone wolfpopulation had grown to more than 170 wolves.Gray wolves once were seen here and there in theYellowstone area and much of the continental United States, but they weregradually displaced by human development. By the 1920s, wolves hadpractically disappeared from the Yellowstone area. They went farther northintothe deep forests of Canada, where there were fewer humans around.The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpectedresults. Deer and elk populations — major food sources (来源) for the wolf — grew rapidly. These animalsconsumed large amounts of vegetation (植被), which reduced plant diversity in the park. In the absence ofwolves,coyote populations also grew quickly. The coyotes killed a large percentage ofthe park’s red foxes, and completely drove away the park’s beavers.As early as 1966, biologists asked the government to considerreintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park. They hoped that wolves would be ableto control the elk and coyote problems. Many farmers opposed the plan becausethey feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets.Thegovernment spent nearly 30 years coming up with a plan to reintroduce thewolvers. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages thewolf packs in Yellowstone. Today, the debatecontinues over how well the graywolf is fitting in at Yellowstone. Elk, deer, and coyote populations are down, whilebeavers and red foxes have made a comeback. The Yellowstone wolf project hasbeen a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroducewolves to other parts of the country as well.（28）What is the textmainly about?A.Wildlife research in the United States.B. Plant diversity inthe Yellowstone area.C. The conflict between farmers and gray wolves.D. Thereintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park.（29）What doesthe underlined word ＂displaced＂ in paragraph 2mean?A.Tested.B. Separated.C. Forcedout.D.

Uncaring.4.DThe Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned anelectric car into a mobile laboratory named ＂DriveLAB＂ in order tounderstand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the keystress points are.Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for afall in health and well-being among older people, leading to them becoming moreisolated(隔绝) and inactive.Led by Professor Phil Blythe, the Newcastle team are developingin-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them tocontinue driving into later life.These include custom-made navigation(导航) tools, night vision systems and intelligent speedadaptations. Phil Blythe explains: ＂For many older people,particularly those living alone or in the country, driving is important forpreserving their independence, giving them the freedom to get out and aboutwithout having to rely on others.＂＂But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactionsslow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentiallychallengingdriving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills. The result isthat people stop driving before they really need to.＂Dr Amy Guo, the leading researcher on the older driver study, explains: ＂The DriveLAB ishelping us to understand what the key points and difficulties are for olderdrivers and how we might use technology to address these problems.＂For example, most of uswould expect older drivers always go slower than everyone else butsurprisingly, we found that in 30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constantspeed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk ofgetting fined. We’re looking at the benefits of systems which control theirspeed as a way of preventing that.＂We hope that our work will help with technological solutions(解决方案) to ensure that olderdrivers stay safer behind the wheel.＂（32）What isthe purpose of the DriveLAB?A.To explore new means of transport.B. To designnew types of cars.C. To find out older driver’s problems.D. To teach peopletraffic rules.（33）Why isdriving important for older people according to Phil Blythe?A.It keeps themindependent.B. It helps them save time.C. It builds up their strength.D. Itcures their mental illnesses.（34）What doresearchers hope to do for older drivers?A.Improve their driving skills.B. Developdriver-assist technologies.C. Provide tips on repairing their cars.D. Organizeregular physical checkups.（35）What isthe best title for the text?A.A new Model Electric CarB. A Solution to TrafficProblemsC. Driving Services for EldersD. Keeping Older Drivers on the Road5.第二节(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

高考英语全国卷真题2017第I卷第一部分听力(略)第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分40分)第一节(共15小题;每小题2分，满分30分)阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)中，选出最佳选项。
AWELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) ---- About 140 pilot whales that stranded(使...搁浅) themselves on a remote stretch of New Zealand beach have died, but conservation workers and volunteers are hoping the remaining 60 or so will survive after they managed to get them refloated, an official said Saturday.The geography of Farewell Spit on the South Island seems to work against whales, which regularly become stranded there. The stranding of 198 whales on Friday was one of the largest in recent years and inspired 80 workers and volunteers to help out.By late Saturday, 140 of the whales had died, said Department of Conservation area manager Andrew Lamason.He said the workers and volunteers worked throughout the day to keep the surviving whales watered and covered before refloating them during Saturday night’s high tide.“We’ve had a really good crew of volunteers, and people have been w anting to come from all over the country,” Lamason said.He said the surviving whales had moved to deeper water. But he cautioned that although hopes for their survival were high, whales had been refloated in the past only to return and get stranded again.Lamason said the scale(规模) of the stranding has been tough on the helpers, both physically and mentally.“It’s very sad, they’re very intelligent animals,” he said. “The common view is that it’s part of nature.”The focus will now turn to the dead whales, and the enormous task of dealing with the remains, Lamason said, adding that in the past helpers have typically buried them in the sand, but that he’s not sure what the approach will be this time.He said the department had been experimenting with moving the the dead whales into the water, which has the advantage of providing food for other sea creatures.21. What is the exact number of whales stranded last FridayA. 198B.140.C. 80.D.6022. Why did the volunteers have to wait until Saturday before they could refloat the whalesA. Because they were very busy on Friday.B. Because the whales were too intelligent.C. Because they had to wait for the sea water to rise.D. Because the whales were buried deep in the sand.23. Which of the following words can be used to describe Lamason’s attitude towards theresult of refloating the whalesA. Optimistic.B. Doubtful.C. Positive.D. Careless.24. How will the volunteers deal with the dead whales this time according to Lamason ?A. They will bury them in the sand.B. They do not have any exact idea yet.C. They will throw them into the ocean.D. They will feed them to other sea creatures.BFree Wi-Fi has become very important to us: many stores and shopping malls offer it, restaurants use it to attract customers, andfor libraries and coffee shops it is a must-have service.Even when people are traveling, they scan for free Wi-Fi. When selecting or rating a hotel, six in ten travelers believe that unlimited Wi-Fi is the most important factor.“Today, people will never forget to pack their smart phones, tablets and laptops into the suitcase,” said the Daily Mail. “We rely on free Wi-Fi heavily when traveling—especially when it comes to checking social media, checking out travel tips, and accessing websites.”However, despite the opportunities that free Wi-Fi gives us, “our over-reliance on technology has come at a price, with travelers feeling unable to escape social media”, said Lonely Planet, theworld’s largest tr avel guide brand.Anita Isalska, Lonely Planet editor and tech addict, was forced to unplug when in an isolated (隔绝的) camp in Greenland recently. “Adjusting to this slower pace, I began to realize that: social media had changed into a habit,” she wrote. “I had believed I wascapturing(捕捉) moments, but in reality my busy fingers were preventing me enjoying travel’s deepest pleasures. How fully can you appreciate a huge glacier or wild flowers when your brain is selecting the right photo filter (滤镜) or the perfect six seconds to take photos”In September, Lonely Planet released 10 predictions for the future of global travel. One of them was that true escapes will behighly valued in future, so remote hotels will start to make their lack of the Internet into an appealing feature. Would you like to have an unplugged holiday25. According to the passage, people nowadays tend to do the following EXCEPT .A. getting out of a library that has no access to the InternetB. thinking ill of a hotel without Wi-FiC. making travel plans via the InternetD. enjoying travelling better without carrying any Hi-Tech equipment26. Through the fourth paragraph, the author intends to .A. give more evidence to the view mentionedB. show a different opinion on the topicC. get into another topicD. summarize the previous paragraphs27. What has Anita Isalska realized in Greenland ?A. Travelers cannot survive without Hi-Tech.B. Taking pictures doesn’t affect appreciating nature.C. Her over-reliance on technology has come at a price.D. Her fingers are not flexible enough to take enough pictures.28. What does “an unplugged holiday” mean in the last paragraph ?A. A camping holiday. B A holiday in a remote hotel.C. A holiday without Wi-Fi.D. A holiday without taking pictures.C“BANG!” the door caused a reverberation (回声). It was just standing there, with father standing on one side, and me on the other side.We were both in great anger. “Never set foot in this houseagain!” stormed fath er. With tears welling up in my eyes, I rushed out of the flat and ran along the street.The street lights were shining, causing rather sad feelings. I wandered aimlessly.A young father who held a child in his arms walked past me. Ifelt as if I saw my childhood from another space: happy and carefree.But now … I don’t know whether it is because I have grown up or because dad is getting old. We differ in our ways of thinking. We are just like two people coming from two different worlds. It feels like there is an iron door between us that can never be opened.I wandered the streets, without a destination in mind. My heart was frozen on this hot summer night. As I walked on, there were fewer and fewer people on the streets, until I had only the street lights to keep me company. When I finally reached the high-rise apartment block in which I lived, I saw that the light was still on.I thought to myself: “Is father waiting for me, or is he still angry with me”In fact, it was nothing. Perhaps, dad was throwing away some of his old stamps. Perhaps he thought they were useless. I never had the courage to tell him that I liked collecting stamps.All the lights were off except father’s.Dad was always like this. Maybe he didn’t know how to express himself. After shouting at me, he never showed any mercy or any moments of regret.This was how he always was. He has been a leader for so longthat telling everyone else what to do has become his second nature.The light was still on. “Am I wrong” I whispered, maybe… With the key in my hand, I was as nervous as I had ever been. At last, I decided to open the door. As soon as I opened the door, tears ran down my cheeks. I suddenly realized that the iron door that I had imagined between us did not exist at all. Love----it’s second to none.29. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage ?A. The author fully understood why he and his father had different thinking.B. The author and his father lacked communication.C. The author’s father didn’t approve of his stamp collecting.D. The author’s father opened the door for him when he came back.30. According to the author, why did his father often shout at him ?A. Perhaps the father was getting older and older.B. Perhaps the father had been used to doing that.C. Perhaps the son had already grown up.C. Perhaps they never agreed with each other.31. What did the author mean by the underlined sentence “My heart was frozen on this hotsummer night”?A. He felt lonely because there were so few people on the street.B. He felt uncomfortable because it was a very hot night.C. He was at a loss because he had nowhere to go.D.

He was afraid of his father.D. He was dissatisfied with his fatherDMany people have wondered what makes the oceans rise and fall on the word’s beaches twice a day. Those tides are caused by the force of the Moon’s gravity and the rotation(自转) of the Earth. Gravity acts onthe center of any solid object. The Earth is mostly molten(熔化的) rock, but compared to the oceans, we can think of it as a solid object.As you know, the oceans are fluid and lie on the surface of the Earth. When the Moon is overhead, the oceans are four thousand miles closer to the Moon than the Earth’s center is. Because the oceans are closer, the Moon pulls harder on the water than on the Earth. This stronger pull makes the water bunch up(集中) a little under the Moon, creating a high tide.At the same time, the oceans on the opposite side of the Earth are four thousand miles farther from the Moon than the Earth’s center is. The Moon’s pull on this water is weak. This water bunches up because it is “left behind”(making another high tid e) as the Earth is pulled slightly towards the Moon.When the waters bunch up on these two sides of the Earth, they draw water away from the other sides of the Earth, which creates the low tides.As the Earth rotates, different parts of the land and oceans pass through the high-tide and low-tide zones. And that makes the waters on our coasts go up and down.33. According to the passage, there would be no tides if there were no ______.A.Earth rotationB.gravity from the EarthC. gravity from the MoonD.Moon’s gravity or Earth rotation34. The moon’s pull has a weak effect on the oceans on the opposite of the Earth, .A. so there is a low tide.B. so the water there doesn’t bunch upC. but it can still make a high tide.D. because the Earth’s gravity there is greater.35. Which of the following facts can be inferred from the passage?.A. Low-tide zones are near to high-tide zones.B. The oceans of the Earth are a whole body.C. High-tide zones are separated from low-tide zones.D.The Earth’s surface is 4000 miles away from the Moon.第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

AMy doorbell rings at 11 a.m.On the step,I find an elderly Chinese lady,She is small and slight.She holds a paper carrier bag in her hands.I know this lady.It is by no means her first visit.Her daughter,Nicole,bought the house next door last October. Nicole,who is currently in Shanghai,has apparently told her mother that I am having heart surgery shortly,and the result is that her mother has decided I need to be supplied with meals.I know what is inside the paper carrier bag-a stainless-steel container with a meal of rice,vegetables and either chicken,meat or shrimp.This has become an almost-daily occurrence.Communication between my benefactor(恩人)and me is somewhat handicapped by the fact that she doesn't speak English and all I can say in Mandarin is "hello".Once,she brought an iPad and pointed to the screen,which displayed a message from Nicole telling me that her mother wanted to know if the food was all right."Your mother just can't be bringing me meals like this all the time,"I protested.“I can hardl y reciprocate by cookingsomething from my native land,like roast beef or Yorkshire pudding for her,”I said."Oh,no,"Nicole said."Don't worry about that.She has to cook for the family anyway,and she wants to do it for you.You can call her Wing,which is her surname."The tenant in my basement suite is a university student who speaks Mandarin quite well,so with her help,I have found out that Wing is 68-13 years younger than I am-and that she lived through the Cultural Revolution.For my part, I was raised in wartime Britain.So here we are,two grandmothers a world away from where we were raised,neither of us able to speak the other’s language.But the doorbell keeps ringing and there is the familiar paper carrier bag,handed smilingly to me by Wing.Right now I am working on some more Mandarin words-it's the least I can do after such a display of kindness."Thank you"is,of course,the first one,which somehow seems inadequate.1.The author and Wing got to know each other .A.as next door neighborsB.when exchanging mealsC.by sharing similar experiencesD.after using an iPad to communicate2.The underlined word "reciprocate" in Paragraph 5 probably means .A.do as wellB.offer generouslyC.give in returnD.accept with pleasure3.The author's effort to learn Mandarin shows her .A.great satisfactionB.real kindnessC.heartfelt thanksD.sincere friendshipBIt’s not what you look at that matters;it's what you see.——Henry David ThoreauSlow Art Day is a global event with a simple mission: help more people discover for themselves the joy of looking at and loving art.Why slow?When people look slowly at a piece of art,they make discoveries.The most important discovery they make is that they can see and experience art without an expert.And that's an exciting discovery.It unlocks passion and creativity and helps to create more art lovers.How does it work?One day each year,people all over the world visit local museums and galleries to look at art slowly.Participants look at five works of art for 10 minutes each and then meet together over lunch to talk about their experience.That's it.Simple by design,the goal is to focus on the art.In fact,Slow Art Day works quite well this way.By the numbersOver l,200 individual Slow Art Day events have taken place since its official launch in 2010.Slow Art Day events have taken place on all seven continents.700 venues (museums,galleries,artist studios,sculpture parks,public an sites.etc.) have hosted Slow Art Day events.Participants love Slow Art DayFeedback on this simple event has been overwhelmingly positive.Here's a sample:“I loved taking the time to just 'be' with the works,particularly pieces I might otherwise walk by.It's a much better way of doing the art museum than the usual idleramble.Discussion afterwards was fun,interesting,informative and eye-opening.I look forward to doing it again."Slow Art Day 2017 is Saturday,April 8,in museums and galleries worldwide.Join us and experience art differently.4.The author quotes Thoreau's words at the beginning to .A.arouse readers' interest in artB.introduce the topic of the textC.stress the importance of lookingD.illustrate the joy of art appreciation5.A typical slow art activity .sts about fifty minutes when people look at art works criticallyB.encourages people to see art for themselves and discuss with expertsanizes people to look at art on their own and talk about their experienceD.inspires people to make discoveries about art works and create their own works6.What can we learn about Slow Art Day from the text?A.The year of 2017 will see the eighth Slow Art Day.B.It happens once a year in all museums and galleries worldwide.C.It has become an art festival celebrated on all seven continents.D.Slow Art Day events have been held in over l,200 different places.7.According to the text,the author .A.has conducted a survey on Slow Art DayB.strongly recommends Slow Art Day eventsC.sees the good and bad sides of Slow Art DayD.is frequentlyinvolved in Slow Art Day eventsCGot big plans for Friday night?That's OK,we don't either.Guess we'll all have to make do by watching the celestial(天空的)show that will take place that night.First,there will be a full moon.That's always fun,but this one will be a little more special.It's known as a “snow moon.”The name comes from the fact that the heaviest snows usually fall during February,according to the Old Farmer's Almanac.But if that's not special enough,there's also an eclipse(月食)that night.It'll be a penumbral lunar eclipse, meaning it’s a partial eclipse that leaves sections of the moon darkened by the earth's shadow.No,it won't be as spectacular as those "blood moon" eclipses,It'll be subtler.The level of darkness it reached during the eclipse may or may not be apparent;it just depends on where you are when you view it.In North America,the eclipse begins at 5:34 p.m ET and ends at 9:53 p.m.ET,according to astronomy website EarthSky,The eclipse will be at its height around 7:44 p.m.ET. .If that's still not enough,let's throw in a comet(彗星)to the night's festivities.Comet 45P (it has a much longer name,but we won't burden you with it here) is visible as it flies by Earth.The comet will get within 7.4 million miles of the planet as it makes its closest approach this weekend,according to Universe Today.Comet 45P will be the most visible a couple of hours after the eclipse,so look to the skies again around 3 a.m.ET Saturday and find the greenish-blue light with a tail.And don't forget,a total big-time solar eclipse will streak across the United States on August 21st.8.According to the text,what can be viewed on Friday night?A.A blood moon.B.A total solar eclipse.C.A partial lunar eclipse.D.A comet without a tail.9.If you want to see Comet 45P,you will need to .A.wait around 7:44 p.m.ETB.stay up until 9:53 p.m.ETC.wake up before 3:00 a.m.ETD.start watching at 5:34 p.m.ET10.The author writes the text with the purpose of .A.introducing basic astronomy to the mediaB.sharing new discoveries with astronomy researchersC.promoting astronomical events among science studentsD. informing average readers of recent celestial phenomena11.Which can be a suitable title for the text?et 45P will be visible as it approaches the earthB.Penumbral lunar eclipse will happen on Friday nightC.Suggestions of fun scientific exhibitions for the coming weekendD.Eclipse,full moon,comet team up to put on a show on Friday nightDThe Super Bowl is the annual championship game of the National Football League (NFL).The game is the culmination(高潮)to a season that begins in the late summer of the previous calendar year.Normally,Roman numerals are used to identify each game,rather than the year in which it is held.For example,Super Bowl I was played on January 15,1967,following the 1966 regular season.The single exception to this rule is Super Bowl 50, which was played on February 7,2016,following the 2015 regular season.The next game,Super Bowl LII,scheduled for February 4,2018,will follow the 2017 regular season.The game was created as part of a merger(合并)agreementbetween the NFL and its then rival league,the American Football League (AFL).Currently,the Pittsburgh Steelers have the most Super Bowl victories,with six.The New England Patriots have the most Super Bowl appearances,with nine.The day (usually the first Sunday in February) on which the Super Bowl is played,now considered as an unofficial American national holiday,is called "Super Bowl Sunday".It is the second-largest day for U.S.food consumption,after Thanksgiving Day.In addition,the seven most-watched broadcasts in U.S. television history are Super Bowls.In 2015,Super Bowl XLIX attracted an audience of 114.4 million.Because of the high viewership,commercial airtime during the Super Bowl broadcast is the most expensive of the year,leading to companies regularly developing their most expensive advertisements for this broadcast.As a result,watching and discussing the broadcast's commercials has become a significant aspect of the event.In addition, popular singers and musicians including Michael Jackson,Madonna,Prince,Beyonce,Paul McCartney,The Rolling Stones,The Who,Whitney Houston,and Lady Gaga have performed during the event's pregame and halftime ceremonies.12.According to the text,in the Super Bowl .A.the New England Patriots have won nine timesB.the Pittsburgh Steelers have won six titlesC.Arabic numerals are used to refer to each gameD.winners of the last season play against each other13.On Super Bowl Sunday,American people usually .A.buy expensive Super Bowl ticketsB.consume the most food of the yearC.avoid the Super Bowl commercialsD.enjoy performancesby famous artists14.In 2015,the Super Bowl was held.A.46thB.49thC.51stD.55th15.We can know from the text that the Super Bowl .A.is a public holiday in the United StatesB.is the annual championship game of AFLunches a new season of the National Football League every yearD.has frequently been the most watched American television broadcast of the year第二节(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

青花瓷发展的黄金时代是明朝永乐、宣德时期，与郑和下西洋在时间上重合，这不能不使我们思考：航海与瓷器同时达到鼎盛，仅仅是历史的偶然吗？从历史事实来看，郑和下西洋为青花瓷的迅速崛起提供了历史契机。
近三十年的航海历程推动了作为商品的青花瓷大量生产与外销，不仅促进技术创新，使青花瓷达到瓷器新工艺的顶峰，而且改变了中国瓷器发展的走向，带来了人们审美观念的更新。
这也就意味着，如果没有郑和远航带来活跃的对外贸易，青花瓷也许会像在元代一样，只是中国瓷器的诸多品种之一，而不会成为主流，更不会成为中国瓷器的代表。
由此可见，青花瓷崛起是郑和航海时代技术创新与文化交融的硕果，中外交往的繁盛在推动文明大交融的同时，也推动了生产技术与文化艺术的创新发展。
作为中外文明交融的结晶，青花瓷真正成为中国瓷器的主流，则是因为成化年间原料本土化带来了民窑青花瓷的崛起。
民窑遍地开花，进入商业化模式之后，几乎形成了青花瓷一统天下的局面。
一种海外流行的时尚由此成为中国本土的时尚，中国传统的人物、花鸟、山水，与外来的伊斯兰风格融为一体，青花瓷成为中国瓷器的代表，进而走向世界，最终万里同风，成为世界时尚。
一般来说，一个时代有一个时代的文化，而时尚兴盛则是社会快速变化的标志。

The movie is set in a small town where the only movie theater is preparing to close down.Bradford said that large modern theaters in the city made it impossible for the Plaza to compete.Headded that the theater’s location(位置)was also a reason.“This used to be the center of town,”he said.“Now the area is mostly office buildings and warehouses.”Last week some city officials suggested the city might be interested in turning the old theater into a museum and public meeting place.However,these plans were abandoned because of financial problems. Bradford sold the building and land to a local development firm,which plans to build a shopping complex on the land where the theater is located.The theater audience said good-bye as Bradford locked the doors for the last time.After75years the Plaza Theater has shown its last movie.The theater will be missed.24.In what way was yesterday’s cleanup at the Plaza special?A.It made room for new equipment.B.It signaled the closedown of the theater.C.It was done with the help of the audience.D.It marked the75th anniversary of the theater.25.Why was The Last Picture Show put on?A.It was an all-time classic.B.It was about the history of the town.C.The audience requested it.D.The theater owner found it suitable.26.What will probably happen to the building?A.It will be repaired.B.It will be turned into a museum.C.It will be knocked down.D.It will be sold to the city government.27.What can we infer about the audience?A.They are disappointed with Bradford.B.They are sad to part with the old theater.C.They are supportive of the city officials.D.They are eager to have a shopping center.CAfter years of heated debate,gray wolves were reintroduced to Yellowstone National Park.Fourteen wolves were caught in Canada and transported to the park.By last year,the Yellowstone wolf population had grown to more than170wolves.Gray wolves once were seen here and there in the Yellowstone area and much of the continental United States,but they were gradually displaced by human development.By the1920s,wolves had practically disappeared from the Yellowstone area.They went farther north into the deep forests of Canada,where there were fewer humans around.The disappearance of the wolves had many unexpected results.Deer and elk populations—major food sources(来源)forthe wolf—grew rapidly.These animals consumed large amounts of vegetation (植被),which reduced plant diversity in the park.In the absence of wolves,coyote populations also grew quickly.The coyotes killed a large percentage of the park’s red foxes,and completely drove away the park’s beavers.As early as1966,biologists asked the government to consider reintroducing wolves to Yellowstone Park.They hoped that wolves would be able to control the elk and coyote problems.Many farmers opposed the plan because they feared that wolves would kill their farm animals or pets.The government spent nearly30years coming up with a plan to reintroduce the wolvers.The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service carefully monitors and manages the wolf packs in Yellowstone.Today,the debate continues over how well the gray wolf is fitting in at Yellowstone.Elk,deer,and coyote populations are down,while beavers and red fores have made a comeback.The Yellowstone wolf project has been a valuable experiment to help biologists decide whether to reintroduce wolves to other parts of the country as well.28.What is the text mainly about?A.Wildlife research in the United States.B.Plant diversity in the Yellowstone area.C.The conflict between farmers and gray wolves.D.The reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone Park.29.What does the underlined word“displaced”in paragraph2mean?A.Tested.B.Separated.C.Forced out.D.Tracked down.30.What did the disappearance of gray wolves bring about？A.Damage to local ecology.B.A decline in the park’s in come.C.Preservation of vegetation.D.An increase in the variety of animals.31.What is the author’s attitude towards the Yellowstone wolf project？A.Doubtful.B.Positive.C.Disapproving.D.Uncaring.DThe Intelligent Transport team at Newcastle University have turned an electric car into a mobile laboratory named“Drive LAB”in order to understand the challenges faced by older drivers and to discover where the key stress points are.Research shows that giving up driving is one of the key reasons for a fall in health and well-being among older people,leading to them becoming more isolated(隔绝)and inactive.Led by Professor Phil Blythe,the Newcastle team are developing in-vehicle technologies for older drivers which they hope could help them to continue driving into later life.These include custom-made navigation(导航)tools,night vision systems and intelligent speed adaptations.Phil Blythe explains:“For many older people,particularly those living alone or in the country, driving is important for preserving their independence,giving them the freedom to get out and about without having to rely on others.”“But we all have to accept that as we get older our reactionsslow down and this often results in people avoiding any potentially challenging driving conditions and losing confidence in their driving skills.The result is that people stop driving before they really need to.”Dr Amy Guo,the leading researcher on the older driver study,explains,“The Drive LAB is help ing us to understand what the key points and difficulties are for older drivers and how we might use technology to address these problems.“For example,most of us would expect older drivers always go slower than everyone else but surprisingly,we found that in30mph zones they struggled to keep at a constant speed and so were more likely to break the speed limit and be at risk of getting fined.We’re looking at the benefits of systems which control their speed as a way of preventing that.“We hope that our wor k will help with technological solutions(解决方案)to ensure that older drivers stay safer behind the wheel.”32.What is the purpose of the Drive LAB?A.To explore newmeans of transport.B.To design new types of cars.C.To find out older driver’s problems.D.To teach people traffic rules.33.Why is driving important for older people according to Phil Blythe?A.It keeps them independent.B.It helps them save time.C.It builds up their strength.D.It cures their mental illnesses.34.What do researchers hope to do for older drivers?A.Improve their driving skills.B.Develop driver-assist technologles.C.Provide tips on repairing their cars./doc/7d4280843.html,anize regular physical checkups.35.What is the best title for the text?A.A new Model Electric CarB.A Solution to Traffic ProblemC.Driving Service for eldersD.Keeping Older Drivers on the

AAttending college can be expensive, and applying to college can be costly as well. With today’s college application fees averaging around $ 80, you can expect to spend hundreds of dollars on college before you are even accepted into a school.One of the easiest ways to save money on college application fees before you begin applying is to narrow down your list of schools. To save money, try to limit the schools to which you apply to about 2-3 reach schoolsand 2-3 safety schools.At some schools, being a relative of a graduate can secure you a free application. If you are applying to a school where one of your parents or grandparents is a former graduate, check to see if you’ re qualified for it.Research the preferred method of applying for each school on your list. Some schools offer free online applications, yet charge a fee for paper submissions. This is because online applications save schools the cost of employing a staff member to physically enter the applicationinformation.Several states, such as Michigan and North Carolina, take part in College Application Week, where many schools in the participating states cancel their application fee for the week. Be sure to contact the schools to I j which you are applying to see if they participate in College Application Week and when the program takes place in thatstate.Apply for early admission. If you have already decided on which college is your top choice, consider applying under an Early Action or Early Decision admission program. If you are accepted, you won’t have to submit applicationfees to other schools.For more information regarding college applications and the fees associated with them, contact your high I school advisor or the admissions department at your school(s)of interest.21. The passage is mainly written to______.A. introduce famous universities in the United StalesB. show some practical ways to apply an ideal collegeC. advertise for successful applications and advisorsD. offer tips to save money on college application fees22. What does the author advise to do in the secondparagraph?A. Write down your favorite universities.B. Reduce the number of your university choices.C. Apply to two universities each time.D. Mind your safety when applying to college.23. Some schools offer free online application to______,A. receive fees faster than beforeB. employ someoneelse to workC. cut down the cost of employmentD. enter theapplication information24. It can be known from the passage that______,A. application fee might be canceled conditionallyB. many countries attend College Application WeekC. applying for early admission is the best policyD. admission departments determine your futureBEvery year, some 6.9 million children under the age of five die from diseases like malaria, pneumonia and HIV. The untold story of child survival is that the global community now has the combined knowledge, technical know-how and affordable tools to end such child deaths. Evidence shows that it is possible to decrease under-five death rates in developing countries to levels approaching those in wealthier countries.That is why 4 years ago — June, 2012 — the US, Ethiopia and India joined the United Nations Children’s Fund (or UNICEF) to launch Child Survival Call to Action, a global effort to save children’s lives. The goal was to lower child death rates in the hardest-hit countries to 20 deaths per 1,000 live births by the year 2035.Zambia started a plan focused on nutrition and immunization (免疫) that will save more than 26,000 children each year. Congo is distributing pre-packaged supplies to prevent and treat the most common killers. They hope to save the lives of half a million children by 2017. Similar efforts are taking place in Ethiopia, Bangladesh, Yemen, and elsewhere.Child Survival partner companies are also developinglife-saving vaccines (疫苗) and treatment for diarrhea. Private enterprisers and medical professionals are training and equipping health workers in 54 countries with life-saving tools. Still others are developing and delivering safe water treatment and storage products. “This high-level forum inspired a global movement —Committing to Child Survival: A Promise Renewed,” wrote UNICEF Executive Director Anthony Lake. “Four years passing, it continues to build and, today, 174 countries and over 400 civil society and faith-based organizations have taken up the charge in their own commitments. While we still have a long way to go, the first 4 years haveseen impressive gains.”25. The underlined word “those” in Paragraph 1 refersto______.A. 6. 9 million under-five childrenB. affordable toolsto end child deathC. deaths in the developing countriesD. death rates ofchildren under five26. Child Survival Call To Action was founded to______.A. improve the living conditions for poor childrenB. decrease under-five death rates in some countriesC. raise some money to save children’s livesD. savechildren in the poorest countries27. What can be inferred from the passage?A. All diseases can be prevented or treated.B. Governments and partners joined the initial effort.C. Nutrition holds the key to lower the death rates.D. Only governments made their best to reduce the deaths.28. How does Anthony Lake feel towards Child SurvivalCall to Action?A. Time-consuming.B. Wasteful.C. Positive.D.Cold.CHow you feel and react to your environment on a day-to-day basis can be measured by your behavior, thoughts, and emotions. Your personality gives you away!There are four fundamental characteristics of personality. First, it is constant and people tend to behave in the same way when they meet similar situations. Second, personality not only influences actions, but it also actually causes people to behave in specific ways. Third, personality is influenced by both psychological and biological factors. Finally, personality isexpressed not only in behaviors, but through emotions, thoughts, social behavior, and close relationships. How the world distinguishes you is a direct reflection of and reaction to how you present yourself to them. Race, age, and sex are qualities you have no control over, but certainly contribute to your personality because of how the world senses you based on them. A person who continuously experiences racial discrimination may guard himself against it by at first seeming cold and unfriendly. But once he opens up, you may discover someone completely different inside.Physical ones, which you develop over time, also contribute to your personality, and include walking pace, eye contact, and facial expressions. How you want the world to see you influences how you present yourself to others. Characteristics such as altitude, response and general mindset create the surface of your one-of-a-kindpersonality.If you’re like many people, the aspects of your personality you choose to show might depend on the people you meet.

Daylight Saving Time (DST: 夏令时) simplymeans remembering to change the clocks and twisting your sleep schedule. “Even though the time change is only an hour, it is something that causes much more destruction than people believe,” said Dr. John Sharp, a psychologist and psychiatrist at Beth-Israel Deaconess Medical Center in Boston. “It’s not just an extra hour of sleep; it’s more of a fast-forward into winter.”With days getting darker earlier, Sharp suggests making a to-do list for activities after work ahead of time. “Any plans you have, say, going to the gym after work, require much more effort and determination. It’s much better to plan more carefully and not just rely on how you feel, especially when it is dark out,” he said. “Figure it out in advance and stick with the plan.”In addition. Sharp says in the weeks after Daylight Saving, some may feel like they have a bigger appetite. “Eating more during this time is not the answer. People need to stay on an eating schedule and keep up healthyhabits. ”However, Sharp said there are ways to better acclimate yourself to the time change. If you are having trouble sleeping, he suggests taking some melatonin (退黑激素)in the evening. In contrast, if you find yourself feeling sleepy. Sharp said there is nothing wrong with adding an extra caffeinated drink during your day.A word to the wise? One sure way to better adjust to the time change is to start going to bed 15 minutes earlier starting four days before Daylight Saving, adding an additional 15 minutes each night.32. Which is probably the best title for the passage?A. Are you prepared for DST?B. Why DST was introduced?C. What DST has brought to life?D. How DST has beenpopular?33.

下面是店铺为大家推荐的2017年高考英语阅读真题，仅供大家参考!2017年高考英语阅读真题1History is full of cases where dreams have been a pathway to creativity and discovery. A striking example is provided by Dr. Otto Loewi, a pharmacologist (药理学家) and winner of a Nobel Prize. Loewi had spent years studying the chemical transmission of nerve impulses (脉搏). A tremendous breakthrough in his research came when he dreamed of an experiment three nights in a row. The first two nights he woke up and wrote down the experiment quickly and untidily on paper. But the next morning, he couldn’t tell what the notes meant. On the third night, he got up after having the dream. This time, instead of making notes he went straight to his laboratory and performed the important experiment. Loewi later said that if the experiment had occurred to him while awake he would have rejected it.Loewi’s experiment gives some insi ght into using dreams to produce creative solutions. Nervous feelings are reduced during dreaming, which may be especially useful in solving problems that require a fresh point of view.Being able to take advantage of dreams for solving is improved if you “set” yourself before retiring. Before you go to bed, try to think intently about a problem you wish to solve. Bury yourself in the problem by stating it clearly and reviewing all relevant information. Then use the suggestions listed in the previous section to catch your dreams. Although this method isnot guaranteed to produce a novel solution or a new insight, it is certain to be an adventure. About half of a group of college students using the method for a week recalled a dream that helped them solve a personal problem.44. The main idea of this passage is that _________.A. very little is really known about the meaning of dreamsB. it is possible to “catch” one’s dreams by planning before going to sleepC. dreams can be useful in producing creative solutions to one’s problemsD. Loewi’s experiment helped in the study of transmission of nerve impulses45. The first paragraph is mainly organized by _________.A. classifying types of experimentsB. summarizing the work of one researcherC. comparing and exploring historical casesD. telling in time order about one man’s research46. If Loewi had thought of the experiment while awake, he would have _________.A. asked someone else to do itB. thought it was a bad ideaC. tried it out on his ownD. thought it was a wise idea47. The author probably thinks that _________.A. nervous feelings may stop someone thinking of useful ideasB. dreaming is of very little value to most peopleC. Loewi should not have conducted his experimentD. college students should not try out dream experiments答案：44.C. 主旨大意题。

2017年高考英语阅读真题2Today just as technology changed the face of industry, farms have experienced an “agricultural revolution”. On the farm of today, machines provide almost all the power.One of the most important benefits will be the farm computer. A few forward-looking farmers are already using computers to help them run their farms more efficiently. The computers help them keep more accurate records so they can make better decisions on what crops to plant, how much livestock (家畜) to buy, when to sell their products, and how much profit they can expect. Many computer companies have been developing special computer programs just for farmers. Programs are being written for pig producers, grain farmers, potato farmers, and dairy farmers. In the future, farmers will be able to purchase computer programs made to their needs. Because of the growing importance of computers on the farm, students at agricultural colleges are required to take computer classes in addition to their normal agricultural courses. There can be no doubt that farmers will rely on computers even more in the future. While the old-time farm depended on horse power, and modern farms depend on machine power, farms of the future will depend on computer power.Another technological advance which is still in the experimental stage is the robot, a real “mechanized hired hand” that will be able to move and, in some ways, think like a human being. Agricultural engineers believe that computer-aided robots will make shocking changes in farming before the end of the century. Unlike farmers of the present, farmers of the future willfind that many day-to-day tasks will be done for them. Scientists are now developing robots that will be able to shear (修剪) sheep, drive tractors, and harvest fruit. Even complex jobs will be done by robots. For example, in order to milk their cows, farmers must first drive them into the barn, then connect them to the milking machines, watch the machines, and disconnect them when they are finished. In the future, this will all be done by robots. In addition, when the milking is completed, the robots will automatically check to make sure that the milk is pure. The complete change of the farm is far in the future, but engineers expect that some robots will be used before long.48. According to the passage, computers can not help farmers decide _______.A. how much money they can earn from their productsB. whether to plant a certain kind of cropC. what livestock to raiseD. when to sell their products49. Which of the following statements is true?A. Farmers in the future will depend totally on computers.B. Farmers mainly use machines on their farms at present.C. Both computers and robots have been in use on today’s farms.D. Students at agricultural colleges needn’t take their normal agricultural courses.50.What is the best title for the whole passage?A. Computer, Farmers’ Best FriendB. Farmers in The FutureC. The Agricultural RevolutionD. Computers and Robots答案：48.C. 细节理解题。
