2014年高考英语重庆卷-答案

2014年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试（重庆卷）英语答案解析一、单项填空1.【答案】C【解析】本题的是代词辨析。

anything任何事情；something某些事情，重要人物；nothing什么也没有，没有事情；everything所有的事情。

句意：微笑不要我们花任何东西，但是却会给我们很多。

本题中的关键词是but说明上下文之间是转折关系，所选之词要和后面的much表示相反的意思。

故C正确。

【考点】代词辨析。

2.【答案】B【解析】本题的是交际用语。

A没关系（用来回答对方的道歉）；B我很高兴要做某事…（后面常常和but 连用，表示委婉地拒绝）；C遇见你很高兴；D我找不到任何理由。

句意：—为什么不在这里多待一会?—我想多待一会，可是我真的必须得走了。

本句的关键词是but，说明本句表示的是委婉地拒绝对方。

同时在to 后面省略了stay here a little longer。

故B正确。

【考点】交际用语。

3.【答案】C【解析】本题的是情态动词意义辨析。

Can’t不可能；做不到；dare not不敢；needn’t 不必；may not也许不；句意：我已经点了一些披萨，所以当我们很累地到家的使用，不必担心做饭的问题。

Need既可以作为情态动词，也可以作为行为动词。

当它作为情态动词的使用常常用于疑问句和否定句中，表示“不必”。

根据句意说明C正确。

【考点】情态动词。

4.【答案】A【解析】本题的是时态题中的一个常考的用法。

在时间状语从句和条件状语从句中，常常使用一般现在时代替将来时。

本句中的连词before引导的就是一个时间状语从句，所以使用一般现在时代替将来时。

句意：在你忘记之前最好把他的电话号码写下来。

故A正确。

【考点】时态。

5.【答案】B【解析】本题的是非谓语动词中分词做定语的用法。

本句中的动词return与前面的名词cameras构成逻辑上的被动关系，所以使用过去分词短语在句中做定语来修饰cameras，从语法作用上来说相当于一个定语从句which are returned…。

高中英语真题-2014高考英语二轮短文阅读类训练(5)及答案或解析

高中英语真题:2014高考英语二轮短文阅读类训练（5）及答案或解析Tides(潮汐)are created mainly by the pull of the moon on the earth. The moon's pull causes water in the oceans to be a little deeper at a point closet to the moon and also at a point farthest from the m oon on the opposite side of the earth. These two tidal"Waves"fo llow the apparent(明显的) movement of the moon around the earth and strike nearly e very coast line at in- tervals of about twelve hours and twenty-five minutes. After reaching a high point, the water level goes d own gradually for a little more than six hours and then begins to rise toward a new high point. Hence, most coast lines have two tides a day, and the tides occur fifty minutes later each day. Dif ferences in the coast line and in channels in the ocean bottom may change the times that the tidal wave reaches different poin ts along the same coast line. Tne difference in water level betw een high and low tide varies from day to day according to the re lative positions of the sun and the moon because the sun also e xerts a pull on the earth, although it is only about half as strongas the pull of the moon. When the sun and the moon are pulling along the same line, the tides rise higher, and when they pull at fight angles to one another, the tide is lower. The formation of t he coast line and variations(变化)in the weather are additional factors which can affect the hei ght of tides. Some sections of the coast are shaped in such a w ay as to cause much higher tides than are experienced in other areas. A strong wind blowing toward the shore may also cause tides to be higher.1. The height of the tide is affected by all of the following except _________.A. the position of the sunB. the direction of the windC. variations in the coast lineD. channels in the sea bottom答案：D 指导：潮汐的高度受太阳、风向和海岸线差异的影响，海沟只影响潮汐的时间。

2014年高考英语重庆卷阅读理解A篇原文

2014年高考英语重庆卷阅读理解A篇原文AI was never very neat, while my roommate Kate was extremely organized. Each of her objects had its place, but mine always hid somewhere. She even labeled (贴标签) everything. I always looked for everything. Over time, Kate got neater and I got messier. She would push my dirty clothing over, and I would lay my books on her tidy desk. We both got tired of each other.War broke out one evening. Kate came into the room. Soon, I heard her screaming, "Take your shoes away! Why under my bed!" Deafened, I saw my shoes flying at me. I jumped to my feet and started yelling. She yelled back louder.The room was filled with anger. We could not have stayed together for a single minute but for a phone call. Kate answered it. From her end of the conversation, I could tell right away her grandma was seriously ill. When she hung up, she quickly crawled (爬) under her covers, sobbing. Obviously, that was something she should not go through phone. All of a sudden, a warm feeling of sympathy rose up in my heart,Slowly, I collected the pencils, took back the books, made my bed, cleaned the socks and swept the floor, even on her side. I got so into my work that I even didn't noticed Kate had sat up. She was watching, her tears dried and her expression one of disbelief. Then, she reached out her hands to grasp mine. I looked up into her eyes. She smiled at me. "Thanks."Kate and I stayed roommates for the rest of the year. We didn't always agree, but we learned the key to living together: giving in, cleaning up and holding on.36. What made Kate angry one evening?A. She couldn't find her books.B. She heard the author shouting loud.C. She got the news that her grandma was ill.D. She saw the author's shoes beneath her bed.37.

2014重庆市高考英语(阅读理解)临考训练(5)及答案解析

2014重庆市高考英语（阅读理解）临考训练（5）及答案解析Tell a story and tell it well, and you may open wide the eyes of a child, open up lines of communication in a business, or even open people’s mind to another culture or race.People in many places are digging up the old folk stories and the messages in them. For example, most American storytellers get their tales from a wide variety of sources, cultures, and times. They regard storytelling not only as a useful tool in child education, but also as a meaningful activity that helps adults understand themselves as well as those whose culture may be very different from their own.“ Most local stories are based on a larger theme,” American storyteller Opalanga Pugh says, “ Cinderella(灰姑娘), or the central idea of a good child protected by her goodness, appears in various forms in almost every culture of the world.”Working with students in schools, Pugh helps them understand their own cultures and the general messages of the stories. She works with prisoner too, helping them knowing who they are by telling stories that her listeners can write, direct, and act in their own lives. If they don’t like the story they are living, they can rewrite the story. Pugh also works to help open up lines of communication between managers and workers. “For every advance in business,” she says, “ there is a greater need for communication.” Storytelling can have a great effect on either side of the manager-worker relationship, she says.Pugh spent several years in Nigeria, where she learned how closely storytelling was linked to the everyday life of the people there. The benefits of storytelling are found everywhere, she says.“I learned how people used stories to spread their culture,” she says, “ What I do is to focus on the value of the stories that people can translate into their own daily world of affairs. We are all storytellers. We all have a story to tell. We tell everybody’s story.”52. What do we learn about American storyteller from Paragraph 2?A. They share the same way of storytelling.B. They prefer to tell the stories from other cultures.C. They learn their stories from the American natives.D. They find storytelling useful for both children and adults.53. The underlined sentence (Paragraph 4) suggests that prisoners can _____.A. start a new lifeB. settle down in another placeC. direct filmsD. become good actors54. Pugh has practised storytelling with _____ groups of people.A. 2B. 3C. 4D. 555. What is the main idea of the text?A. Storytelling can influence the way people think.B. Storytelling is vital to the growth of business.C. Storytelling is the best way to educate children in school.D. Storytelling helps people understand themselves and others.5.答案52.D 53.A 54.B 55.D***************************************************结束(第******篇)It was the first snow of winter — an exciting day for every child but not for most teachers. Up until now, I had been able to dress myself for recess (课间休息), but today I would need some help.Miss Finlayson, my kindergarten teacher at Princess Elizabeth School near Hamilton，Ontario，had been through first snow days many times in her long career, but l think she may still remember this one.I managed to get into my wool snow pants. But I struggled with my jacket because it didn’ t fit well. It was a hand me down from my brother, and it made me wonder why I had to wear his ugly clothes. At least my hat and matching scarf were mine, and they were quite pretty. Finally it was time to have Miss Finlayson help me with my boots. In her calm, motherly voice she said, “By the end of winter, you will be able to put on your own boots. ”I didn’t realize at the time that this was m ore a statement of hope than of confidence.I handed her my boots and stuck out my feet. Like most children, I expected the adult to do all the work. After much wiggling and pushing, she managed to get the first one into place and then, with a sigh, worked the second one on too.I announced, “They’ re on the wrong feet. ”With the grace that only experience can bring, she struggled to get the boots off and went through the joyless task of putting them on again.Then I said，“ These aren’t my boots, you know.” As she pulled the offending boots from my feet, she still managed to look both helpful and interested. Once they were off, I said，“They are my brother’ s boots. My mother makes me wear them, and I hate them ！” Somehow, from long years of practice，she managed to act as though I wasn’t an annoying little girl.She pushed and shoved, less gently this time, and the boots were returned to their proper place on my feet. With a great sigh of relief, seeing the end of her struggle with me, she asked, “Now，where are your gloves？”I looked into her eyes and said，“ I didn’ t want to lose them, so I put them into the toes of my boots.”[语篇解读]本文通过为小作者穿靴子的故事，描写了老师的善解人意和小女孩的顽皮。

2014年高考英语重庆卷阅读理解E篇原文

2014年高考英语重庆卷阅读理解E篇原文EIt's generally believed that people act the way they do because of their personalities and attitudes. They recycle their garbage because they care about the environment. They pay $5 for a caramel brulée latte because they like expensive coffee drinks.It's undeniable that behavior comes from our inner dispositions (性情), but in many instances we also draw inferences about who we are, as suggested by the social psychologist Daryl Bem, by observing our own behavior. We can be strangers to ourselves. If we knew our own minds, why would we need to guess what our preferences are from our behavior? If our minds were an open book, we would know exactly how much we care about the environment or like lattes. Actually, we often need to look to our behavior to figure out who we are.Moreover, we don't just use our behavior to learn about our particular types of character—we infer characters that weren't there before. Our behavior is often shaped by little pressures around us, which we fail to recognize. Maybe we recycle because our wives and neighbors would disapprove if we didn't. Maybe we buy lattes in order to impress the people around us. We should not mistakenly believe that we always behave as a result of some inner disposition.Whatever pressures there can be or inferences one can make, people become what they do, though it may not be in compliance (符合) with theirtrue desires. Therefore, we should all bear in mind Kurt Vonnegut's advice: "We are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be."52. According to the passage, personalities and attitudes are commonly believed to .A. determine one's behaviorB. reflect one's tasteC. influence one's surroundingsD. result from one's habits53. Which of the following would Daryl Bem most probably agree with?A. The return of a wallet can indicate one's honesty.B. A kind person will offer his seat to the old.C. One recycles plastics to protect the environment.D. One buys latte out of true love of coffee.54. What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the passage?A. We fall to realize our inner dispositions.B. We can be influenced by outside pressures.C. Our behavior is the result of our true desires.D. Our characters can shape our social relationships.55. What does the author mainly discuss in the passage?A. Personalities and attitudes.B. Preferences and habits.C. Behavior and personalities.D. Attitudes and preferences.2014年高考英语重庆卷阅读理解E篇翻译人们普遍认为,人们的行为方式源于他们的个性和态度。

2014重庆市高考英语(阅读理解)临考训练(3)及答案解析

2014重庆市高考英语（阅读理解）临考训练（3）及答案解析Throughout the history of the arts, the nature of creativity has remained constant to artists. No matter what objects they select, artists are to bring forth new forces and forms that cause change-to find poetry where no one has ever seen or experienced it before.Landscape(风景) is another unchanging element of art. It can be found from ancient times through the 17th-century Dutch painters to the 19th-century romanticists and impressionists. In the 1970s Alfred Leslie, one of the new American realists, continued this practice. Leslie sought out the same place where Thomas Cole, a romanticist, had produced paintings of the same scene a century and a half before. Unlike Cole who insists on a feeling of loneliness and the idea of finding peace in nature, Leslie paints what he actually sees. In his paintings, there is no particular change in emotion, and he includes ordinary things like the highway in the background. He also takes advantage of the latest developments of color photography(摄影术) to help both the eye and the memory when he improves his painting back in his workroom.Besides, all art begs the age-old question: What is real? Each generation of artists has shown their understanding of reality in one form or another. The impressionists saw reality in brief emotional effects, the realists in everyday subjects and in forest scenes, and the Cro-Magnon cave people in their naturalistic drawings of the animals in the ancient forests. To sum up, understanding reality is a necessary struggle for artists of all periods.Over thousands of years the function of the arts has remained relatively constant. Past or present, Eastern or Western, the arts are a basic part of our immediate experience. Many and different are the faces of art, and together they express the basic need and hope of human beings.72. Leslie's paintings are extraordinary because .A. they are close in style to works in ancient timesB. they look like works by 19th-century paintersC. they draw attention to common things in lifeD. they depend heavily on color photography73. What is the author's opinion of artistic reality?A. It will not be found in future works of art.B. It does not have a long-lasting standard.C. It is expressed in a fixed artistic form.D. It is lacking in modern works of art.74. What does the author suggest about the arts in the last paragraph?A. They express people's curiosity about the past.B. They make people interested in everyday experience.C. They are considered important for variety in form.D. They are regarded as a mirror of the human situation.75. Which of the following is the main topic of the passage?A. History of the arts.B. Basic questions of the arts.C. New developments in the arts.D. Use of modern technology in the arts.3答案72.C 73.B 74.D 75.B******************************************************结束(第******篇)Find Which Direction Is SouthDo you have a good sense of direction? If not, please take with you a compass. But if you forget to take a compass, you can still find your way.It’ s never a good idea to imagine that the family member who was entrusted(委托) with the job of map reading actually knows where the family is. You can tell by the slightly confused look on their faces that nothing on the ground seems to match the map. Never mind. The sun is shining and it’ s still morning. If you don’t know the exact time, you can still find out where south is, but you’ll need to be patient.①Find a straight stick and put it in the ground in a place where you can mark its shadow.②Try to position the stick as vertically(垂直) as you can.You can check this by making a simple plumb line (铅锤线)with a piece of string and weight. You haven’ t got any string？OK, use a thread from your clothes with a button tied at the end to act as a weight.③Mark the end of the shadow cast by the stick.④Wait approximately half an hour and mark the end of the shadow again.⑤Keep doing this until you have made several marks.⑥The mark nearest the stick will represent the shortest shadow, which is cast at midday, when the sun is highest in the sky and pointing to the exact south.⑦Pick a point in the distance along the line between the shortest shadow and the stick.⑧That point is south of where you are.⑨Now you can turn the map, like you did before, and find which way you should be travelling.[语篇解读]你有好的方向感吗？如果没有，那就要带上指南针。

专题16 阅读理解之科普类-2014年高考英语试题分项版解析(解析版)(2)

2014年高考英语分项解析精编版专题16 阅读理解之科普类【2014·重庆卷】CThe idea of being able to walk on water has long interested humans greatly. Sadly, biological facts prevent us ever acplishing such a thing without artificial aid --- we simply weigh too much, and all our mass pushes down through our relatively small feet, resulting in a lot of pressure that makes us sink.However, several types of animals can walk on water. One of the most interesting is the mon basilisk Basilicus basilicus, a lizard（蜥蜴）native to Central and South America. It can run across water for a distance of several meters, avoiding getting wet by rapidly hitting the water’s surface with its feet. The lizard will take as many as 20 steps per second to keep moving forward. For humans to do this, we’ll need huge feet that we could bring up to our ears in order to create adequate “hitting.”But fortunately there is an alternative: cornflour. By adding enough of this mon thickening agent to water (and it does take a lot), you can create a “non-Newtonian”liquid that doesn’t behave like normal water. Now if the surface of the water is hit hard enough, particles（粒子）in the water group together for a moment to make the surface hard. Move quickly enough and put enough force into each step, and you really can walk across the surface of an adequately thick liquid of cornflour.Fun though all this may sound, it’s still rather messy and better read about in theory than carried out in practice. If you must do it, then keep the water wings handy in case you start to sink --- and take a shower afterward!【小题1】. Walking on water hasn’t bee a reality mainly because humans _______.A. are not interested in itB. have biological limitationsC. have not invented proper toolsD. are afraid to make an attempt【小题2】. What do we know about Basilicus basilicas from the passage?A. It is light enough to walk on water.B. Its huge feet enable it to stay above water.C. It can run across water at a certain speedD. Its unique skin keeps it from getting wet in water【小题3】. What is the function of the cornflour according to the passage?A. To create a thick liquid.B. To turn the water into solid.C. To help the liquid behave normally.D. To enable the water to move rapidly.【小题4】. What is the author’s attitude toward the idea of human’s walking on water?A. It is risky but beneficial.B. It is interesting and worth tryingC. It is crazy and cannot bee a realityD. It is impractical; though theoretically possible【2014·山东卷】DHow fit are your teeth? Are you lazy about brushing them? Never fear: An inventor is on the case. An electric toothbrush senses how long and how well you brush, and it lets you track your performance on your phone.The Kolibree toothbrush was exhibited at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week. It senses how it is moved and can send the information to an Android phone or iPhone via a Bluetooth wireless connection.The toothbrush will be able to teach you to brush right (don’t forget the insides of the teeth!) and make sure you’re brushing long enough. “It’s kind of like having a dentist actually watch your brushing on a day-to-day basis,” says Thomas Serval, the French inventor.The toothbrush will also be able to talk to other applications on your phone, so developers could, for instance, create a game controlled by your toothbrush. You could score points for beating monsters among your teeth. “We try to make it smart but also fun,” Several says.Serval says he was inspired by his experience as a father. He would e home from work and ask his kids if they had brushed their teeth. They said “yes,” but Serval would find their toothbrush heads dry. He decided he needed a brush that really told him how well his children brushed.The pany says the Kolibree will go on sale this summer, for $99 to $199, developing on features. The U.S. is the first target market.Serval says that one day, it’ll be possible to replace the brush on the handle with a brushing unit that also has a camera. The camera can even examine holes in your teeth while you brush.【小题1】56. Which is one of the feature of the Kolibree toothbrush?A. It can sense how users brush their teeth.B. It can track users’ school performance.C. It can detect users’ fear of seeing a dentist.D. It can help users find their phones.【小题2】57. What can we learn from Serval’s words in Paragraph 3?A. You will find it enjoyable to see a dentist.B. You should see your dentist on a day-to –day basis.C. You can brush with the Kolibree as if guided by a dentist.D. You’d like a dentist to watch you brush your teeth every day.【小题3】58. Which of the following might make the Kolibree toothbrush fun?A. It can be used to update mobile phones.B. It can be used to play mobile phone gamesC. It can send messages to other usersD. It can talk to its developers.【小题4】59. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?A. How Serval found out his kids lied to him.B. Why Serval thought brushing teeth was necessary.C. How Serval taught his kids to brush their teeth.D. What inspired Serval to invent the toothbrush【小题5】60. What can we infer about Serval’s children?A. They were unwilling to brush their teethB. They often failed to clean their toothbrushes.C. They preferred to use a toothbrush with a dry head.D. They liked brushing their teeth after Serval came home.【小题6】61. What can we learn about the future development of the Kolibree?A. The brush handle will be removed.B. A mobile phone will be built into it.C. It will be used to fill holes in teethD. It will be able to check users’ teeth 【答案】【小题1】A【小题2】C【小题3】B【小题4】D【小题5】A【小题6】D【2014·北京卷】CChoosing the Right Resolution (决定)Millions of Americans began 2014 with the same resolution they started 2013 with, a goal of losing weight. However, setting weight loss as a goal is a mistake.To reach our goal of losing weight --- the output, we need to control what we eat --- the input ( 输入). That is, we tend to care about the output but not to control the input. This is a bad way to construce goals. The alternative is to focus your resolution on the input. Instead of resolving to lose weight, try an actionable resolution: “I’ll stop having desert for lunch,” or “I’ll walk every day for 20 minutes.” Creating a goal that focuses on a well-specified input will likely be more effective than concentrating on the oute.Recently a new science behind incentives (激励) , including in education, has been discussed. For example, researcher Roland Fryer wanted to see what works best in motivating children to do better in school. In some cases, he gave students incentives based on input, like reading certain books, while in others, the incentives were based on output, like results on exams. His main finding was that incentives increased achievement when based on input but had no effect on output. Fryer’s conclusion was that the intensives for inputs might be more effective because do not knoe how to do better on exam, aside from general rules like “study harder.” Reading certain books, on the other hand, is a well-set task over which they have much more control.As long as you have direct control over your goal, you have a much higher chance of success. And it’s easier to start again if you fail, because you know exactly what you need to do.If you want to cut down on your spending, a good goal would be making morning coffee at home instead of going to a cafe, for example. This is a well-specified action-based goal for which you can measure your success easily. Spending less money isn’t a goal because it’s too general. Similarly, if you want to spend more time with your family, don’t stop with this general wish. Think bout an actionable habit that you could adopt and stick to, like a family movie night every Wednesday.In the long run, these new goals could bee a habit.63. The writer thinks that setting weight loss as a goal is a mistake because _______ .A. it is hard to achieve for most AmericansB. it is focused too much on the resultC. it is dependent on too many thingsD. it is based on actionable decisions64. In Roland Fryer’s research, some students did better than the others because ______ .A. they obeyed all the general rulesB. they paid more attention to examsC. they were motivated by their classmatesD. they were rewarded for reading some books65. According to the writer, which of the following statements is a good goal?A. “I’ll give up desert.”B. “I’ll study harder.”C. “I’ll cut down my expense”D. “I’ll spend more time with my family”66. The writer strongly believes that we should ________ .A. develop good habits and focus on the outeB. be optimistic about final goals and stick to themC. pick specific actions that can be turned into good habitsD. set ambitious goals that can balance the input ang output【答案】measure your success easily”可知，作者实际上是建议人们采取可形成好习惯的行动来实现目标。

Activists from the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society，a USbased environmental group, have been chasing the Japanese fishing ship.Commercial whaling was banned in 1986 but Japan uses a regulation permitting hunting for scientific research.Iceland and Norway have claimed official objections to the ban and continue to hunt commercially.“Putting safety as a priority, the ship has halted scientific whaling for now. We are currently considering what to do，” Tatsuya Nakaoku, an official at the fisheries agency, told Reuters news agency.The Sea Shepherd Conservation Society says one of its boats has been blocking the ship loading ramp(斜梯) ，preventing any hunted whales from being loaded on to the ship. “Every whale saved is a victory to us, so we've gotten a lot of victories down here this year，” Sea Shepherd captain Paul Watson told Reuters news agency by satellite phone from the Steve Irwin ship.本文为三则新闻。
