高中英语阅读理解素材库阅读理解训练题(一AEver since news of widespread food recalls caused by a carcinogenic dye broke, there has been confusion (混淆 over possible links to the country of the same name, but Sudan officials say there is no connection whatever.Sudan 1 is a red industrial dye that has been found in some chilli powder, but was banned in food products across the European Union (EU in July 2003.Since the ban was put in place, EU officials have been striving to remove some food products from the shelves. So far 580 products have been recalled.Last week Sudan’ s Embassy in the United Kingdom asked the Food Standards Agency (FSA for clarification of the origin of the dye’ s name.Omaima Mahmoud Al Sharief, a press official at Sudan ’ s Embassy in China, explained the purpose of the inquiry was to clear up any misunderstanding over links between the country and the poisonous dye."We want to keep an eye on every detail and avoid any misunderstanding there," she said. "Our embassy to Britain asked them how the dye got that name and whether the dye had something to do with our country. But they told us there was no relationship."The FSA, an independent food security watchdog in Britain, received a letter from the Sudanese embassy last week."They asked us why the dye is named Sudan, however, we also do not know how it got the name," she said. "People found the dye in 1883 and gave it the name. Nobody knows the reason, and we cannot give any explanation before we find out."Sudan dyes, which include Sudan 1 to 4, are red dyes (颜料 used for colouring solvents (溶剂 , oils, waxes, petrol, and shoe and floor polishes.

They have a beginning,a middle,and an end with commercials (商业广告 thrown in every three or four minutes. The commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. "Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.""Drink Good Wet Root Beer.""Fill up with Pacific Gas."Only if you sleep,which is equal to turning the television set off,are you spared the unending cry of "You Need It! Buy It Now!"The beginning of the ride is comfortable and some what exciting,even if you’ ve traveled that way before. Usually some things have changed new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style of driving and it ’ s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless (鲁莽的 or daring, the ride can be as thrilling (惊心动魄的 as a suspense story. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left hand lane? After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you’ ve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and there ’ s a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat of course, has become harder as the hours have passed. By now you ’ ve sat with your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap, with your hands on the armrests even with your hands crossed behind your head. The end comes just at no more ways to sit.60.According to the passage, what do the passengers usually see when they are on a long bus trip?A.Buses on the road.B.Films on television.C.Advert isements on the billboards.D.Gas stations.61.What is the purpose of this passage?A.To give the writer’ s opinion about long bus trips.B.To persuade you to take a long bus trip.C.To explain how bus trips and television shows differ.D.To describe the billboards along the road.62.The writer of this passage would probably favor .A.bus drivers who aren’ t recklessB.driving aloneC.a television set on the busD.no billboards along the road 63.The writer feels long bus rides are like TV shows because .A.the commercials both on TV shows and on billboards along the road are funB.the y both have a beginning,a middle,and an end, with commercials in betweenC.the drivers are always reckless on TV shows just as they are on busesD.both traveling and watching TV are not exciting.64.The writer thinks that the end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning because both are .A.ex citingfortableC.tiringD.boringCModern man has cleared the forests for farmland and for wood, and has also carelessly burned them. More than that, though, he has also interfered (干涉 with theinvisible bonds between the living things in the forests. There are many examples of this kind of destruction. The harmfulness of man ’ s interference can be seen in what happened many years ago in the forest of the Kaibab plateau (凯亚巴布高原 of northern Arizona. Man tried to improve on the natural web of forest life and destroyed it instead.The Kaibab had a storybook forest of large sized pine, Douglas fir, white fir, blue and Engelmann spruce. In 1882 a visitor noted, "We, who ... have wandered through its forests and parks, have come to regard it as the most enchanting region it has ever been our privilege (特权to visit. “ This was also the living place of the Rocky Mountain mule deer. Indians hunted there every autumn to gather meat and skins. The forest also had mountain lions, timber wolves and bobcats that kept the deer from multiplying too rapidly.Then, in 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt made the Kaibab a national game preserve. De er hunting was forbidden. Government hunters started killing off the deer ’ s enemies. In 25 years’ time,6,250 mountain lions, wolves and bobcats were killed. Before the program, there were about 4,000 deer in the Kaibab, by 1924,there were about 100,000.The deer ate every leaf and twig they could reach. But there was not nearly enough food. Hunting of deer was permitted again. This caused a slight decrease in the deer herd (鹿群 , but a far greater loss resulted from starvation (饥饿 and disease. Some 60 percent of the deer herd died in two winters. By 1930 the herd had dropped to 20,000 animals. By 1942 it was down to 8,000.65.The destruction of the environment of the Kaibab resulted from .A.turning the forest into cultivated landB.interferi ng with natural cycle of forest lifeC.forest fires caused by man’ s carelessnessD.cutting the trees for building materials66."Engelmann spruce"(Para. 2 is most likely the name of .A.a treeB.an animalC.a mountainD.a game67.The number of the deer in the Kaibab had increased enormously in years’ time.A.25B.6C.18D.1268.Years later,large numbers of deer in the Kaibab died mainly because of . A.the cold B.the organized killC.the shortage of foodD.the poor managementDIn the USA Forbes magazine has published its annual list of the richest peoplein the world.

Ingvar Kamprad founder of the Swedish furniture chain also saw a big increase in wealth taking him to the sixth place. Developing countries make more of a showing than in past years — there are for example three Russians and four Indians in the top sixty richest people, though surprisinglyperhaps none from China excluding Hong Kong.

【英语】高一英语阅读理解专项训练100(附答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解Money is the root of all evil (邪恶) and new study claims there may be some truth behind the saying. Scientists at the University of California Berkeley, US, announced on February 27 that rich people are more likely to do immoral things, such as lie or cheat, than poorer people. The scientists did a series of eight experiments. They published their findings online in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNA《美国国家科学院院刊》).They carried out the first two experiments from the sidewalk near Berkeley. They noted that drivers of newer and more expensive cars were more likely to cut off other cars and pedestrians at crosswalks. Nearly 45 percent of people driving expensive ears ignored a pedestrian compared with only 30 percent of people driving mow modest cars.In another experiment, a group of college students was asked if they would do immoral things in various everyday situations. Examples included taking printer paper from work and not telling a salesperson when he or she gave back more change. Students from higher — class families were more likely to act dishonestly.According to the scientists, rich people often think money can get them out of trouble. This makes them less afraid to take risks. It also means they care less about other people's feelings. Finally, it just makes them greedier. “Higher wealth status seems to make you want even more, and that increased want leads you to bend the rules or break the rules to serve your self- interest,” said Paul Piff, lead scientist of the study.Piff pointed out that the findings don't mean that all rich people are untrustworthy or all poor people honest. He said the experiments were to show how people living in different social situations express their instincts(本能)and values in different ways.(1)By saying “money is the root of all evil”, the author wants to .A. link wealth with bad behaviorB. draw readers' attention to the researchC. show how the saying proves the findingsD. defend rich people who do immoral things (2)According to the scientists, which is NOT the factor that makes rich people immoral?A. They welcome risks.B. They have more desires.C. They believe money talks.D. They become more selfish.(3)Why did the scientists do the experiments?A. To show how social status affects people's morality.B. To show people's instincts and values in different ways.C. To test whether the saying “money is the root of all evil” is true.D. To show the difference between higher - class people and lower - class people.(4)What does the passage really want to show us?A. The poor are respectable.B. Money is the root of all evil.C. All rich people are untrustworthy.D. The rich are more likely to act badly.【答案】(1)B(2)A(3)A(4)D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文,作者主要通过展示几个实验的结果,旨在证明"金钱是一切罪恶的根源"这一说法可能是有一定道理的。

"But actually, it's not an easy one because it requires heavy work, such as moving wood and large, heavy flowerpots – things that are 2 when creating works – which requires 3 ."Lu was 4 by a vocational school (职业学校) in 2017, a year after he graduated from junior high school at age 16. "The first thing I learned was design. Then my teacher told me that maybe I should study floristry because he felt I was 5 in that area," he said with a laugh. Lu said he was not 6 about the suggestion then. "Actually, I knew 7 about floristry. All I knew at the time was that some students in our school had won the 44th WorldSkills Competition in Abu Dhabi in 2017."Lu said he was in a poor condition when he 8 the competition. "Almost two weeks before I had the final training in July, I was 9 of ideas, which was terrible for a competitor whose project needed new ideas. I got used to my new identity later, thanks to my 10 who guided me with their patience and scientific training courses."His trip to Kazan was 11 , but he enjoys the memory. He said he had 12 during the competition because he was getting more and more nervous as the competition 13 . "We were given all our tasks about 15 minutes before the competition started.

The development of processed foods(加工食品) has made food easier to get and prepare. 4 every coin has two sides. Apart from its advantages, the 5 of cooking also has its disadvantages.Though processed foods seem a great way to save 6 , they offer much less nutritional(营养的)value than traditional foods. People today are so 7 that they are not able to spend enough time preparing their food. As a result, many people 8 to eat processed foods, ready-to-cook meals and various fast foods. But what will 9 if one eats such food all year round? It will damage your 10 . The nutritional value of the food is not so high. Worse still, research shows that preservatives(防腐剂)used in these foods are 11 to children.

Cooking is not done just to satisfy hunger; it is also a(n) 15 form of art. Across the world, there are thousands of 16 cooking styles. If young people are used to processed foods, few of them will develop great cooking 17 . And when they become parents, it will be hard for their children to enjoy a(n) 18 home-cooked meal. What’s more, cooking is a great time for 19 to connect.

高一英语阅读理解50篇(付详解)中考英语阅读理解·“老”字趣谈每个国家都有各自的文化习惯,而这种文化上的差异往往会引起一定的误会,不过只要熟悉对方的风俗习惯做到入乡随俗,一切就OK啦!When my family moved to America in 2010 from a small village in Guangdong, China, we brought not only our luggage, but also our village rules, customs and culture. One of the rules is that young people should always respect(尊敬) elders. Unluckily, this rule led to my very first embarrassment in the United States.I had a part-time job as a waiter in a Chinese restaurant. One time, when I was serving food to a middle-aged couple, the wife asked me how the food could be served so quickly. I told her that I had made sure they got their food quickly because I always respect the elderly. As soon as I said that, her face showed great displeasure. My manager, who happened to hear what I said, took me aside and gave me a long lecture about how sensitive(敏感) Americans are and how they dislike the description “old”. I then walked back to the table and apologized to the wife. After the couple heard my reason, they understood that the problem was caused by cultural differences, so they laughed and were no longer angry.In my village in China, people are proud of being old. Not so many people live to be seventy or eighty, and people who reach such an age have the most knowledge and experience. Young people always respect older people because they know they can learn from their rich experience.However, in the United States, people think “growing old” is a problem since “old” shows that a person is going to retire or that the body is not working well. Here many people try to keep themselves away from growing old by doing exercises or jogging, and women put on makeup, hoping to look young. When I told the couple in the restaurant that I respect the elderly, they got angry because this caused them to feel they had failed to stay young. I had told them something they didn’t want to hear.After that, I changed the way I had been with older people. It is not that I don’t respect them any more; I still respect them, but now I don’t show my feelings through words.By Jack根据以上短文内容,然后从每题所给的四个选项中选择最佳选项。

1.A woman who had been diagnosed with cancer had been given3 months to live. So she told her pastor which songs she wanted sung at the service,what scriptures she would like read,and what she wanted to be wearing. The woman also told her pastor that she wanted to be buried with her favorite bible.“There’s one more thing.” she said excitedly.“I want to be buried with a fork in my right hand.”The pastor stood looking at the woman not knowing quite what to say.The woman explained,“In all my years of attending church socials and functions where food was involved;my favorite part was when whoever was clearing away the dishes of the main course would lean over and say ‘you can keep your fork’. It was my favorite part because I knew that something better was coming. So I just want people to see me there in that casket with a fork in my hand and I want them to wonder ‘What’s with the fork?’ Then I want you to tell them,‘Something better is coming,so keep your fork too.’”1/ 15The pastor’s eyes were welled up with tears of joy as he hugged the woman goodbye. He knew this would be one of the last times he would see her before her death. But he also knew that the woman had a better grasp of heaven than he did. She knew that something better was coming.At the funeral the pastor told the people how he could not stop thinking about the fork and told them that they probably would not be able to stop thinking about it either.So the next time you reach down for your fork,let it remind you so gently that there is something better coming.Keep your fork.

That night when everyone went to bed, Bunny couldn't sleep. He still couldn't think of what he wanted his Christmas gift to be. He wondered how Father Christmas would know what to bring him if he didn't know himself.As he was sitting up in bed, Bunny heard a big noise on the roof (屋顶) and a sound downstairs. It was Father Christmas, he realized. Bunny jumped out of bed and raced down the hall to the stairs hoping to have a look at the old man with his own eyes.3/ 15By the time Bunny reached the bottom of the stairs, though, everything was again silent. Beautiful gifts were piled (堆积) under the Christmas tree, but Father Christmas was gone. He looked for him for a few minutes, but it was already too late. Bunny turned to climb back upstairs when he heard a cry.“Hello,” said Bunny. “Is somebody there?”He was answered by another cry. Bunny looked around the big pile of gifts to see what was making the noise. Right under the tree was a funny looking brown animal with big feet and sad eyes. Bunny might have mistaken it for a dog, if it hadn't been for the antlers (鹿角) on its head.“Are you a reindeer (驯鹿)?” asked Bunny.“Yes,” replied the animal, “my name is Ralph.”“And you were pulling Father Christmas' sled (雪橇)?”“I was until I got airsick,” replied Ralph, “I'm afraid I wasn't cut out for the job. Now I'm stuck here and I don't know how to get back to the North Pole.”“Well, if you like, you can stay with us as a friend,” said Bunny.

Women have jumped ahead of men for the first time in using the Internet to do their holiday shopping, according to a study published last week in5/ 15the US.For years men have been more likely to shop on the Internet than women, but during the 2013 holiday season 58 percent of those shopping online were women.“It shows how popular the Internet is becoming,” said Lee Rainie, director of the Pew Internet and American Life Project group, which carried out the study. Rainie said it was only a matter of time before women shoppers caught up with men. This is because women traditionally make decisions about spending.Users were more likely to shop online to save time. Internet users between the ages 18 and 29 were responsible for some of the surprising increase in the online gift- buying population this time around.However, three-quarters of the US Internet users did not buy holiday gifts online in 2013. They worried about credit card security(安全),or just compared online prices with off-line prices, then dashed off to the shops to get the best deals.“But even if shoppers don’t buy online, websites are becoming promotion(促销)tools for stores,’,said Dan Hess’vice president of Com Score Network Inc. Hess said that actually most stores,websites can make customers fully believe the security of their credit card numbers. And most are able to ensure that gifts arrive on time.6/ 15It’s all about making the shopping experience more efficient, more reliable and more comfortable,” Hess said.(1) Which of the following statements is true?A. There were fewer women online shoppers than men in 2013.B. More women shopped online than men in 2013.C. Most of the Internet users between the ages 18 and 29 were women.D. people in the US were more likely to buy gifts online.(2) What does the underlined part “dashed off” probably mean? _A. 关闭B. 推迟C. 匆忙D. 起飞(3) According to Dan Hess, shopping online is ________.A. unsafeB. convenientC. a waste of moneyD. cheaper4.Most people know the feeling when you walk into a lift(电梯)with other people. A study has found that where people stand is based on their social position on entering the lift.7/ 15Rebekah Rousi,a Ph. D. student, did a study of lift behavior in two of the tallest office buildings in Adelaide, Australia. As part of her research, she took a total of 30 lift rides in the two buildings, and discovered there was a fixed order about where people chose to stand.In her research paper, she wrote that more senior men seemed to walk straight towards the back of the lift. She said, “In front of them were younger men, and in front of them were women of all ages.” She also noticed there was a difference in the direction where people looked during the ride. “Men watched the monitors, looked in the side mirrors (in one building) to see themselves, and in the door mirrors (in the other building) to watch others. Women would watch the monitors and avoid looking into others,eyes (unless in conversations) and the mirrors. ”Rebekah Rousi concluded that shyer people stand toward the front,where they can’t see other passengers,while fearless people stand in the back, where they have a good view of everyone else.(1) According to the study, where people stand in a lift is decided by ________.A. their social positionB. the monitorsC. other passengersD. others’ position8/ 15(2) Who are most likely to go to the back of the lift?A. Shyer people.B. Senior men.C. Younger men.D. Women.(3) Which is true according to the passage?A. The order in which people stand in a lift is fixed.B. Few people feel embarrassed with strangers in a lift.C. Women like watching themselves in the side mirrors.D. Fearless people stand in the back to avoid seeing others.(4) The passage is probably taken from ________.A. a lift instructionB. a storybookC. a travel guideD. a newspaper5. 七选五根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。

The body needs fruit and vegetables because they contain vitamin C. Many people take extra vitamins in pill form, believing that these will make them healthy.But a good diet is made up of nourishing food and this gives all the vitamins you need. The body doesn’t need or use extra vitamins, so why waste money on them?In the modern western world, many people are too busy to bother about eating properly.

They also could help their husbands in their business.Since World War II, the entrance of both married and single women into the working world has continued to increase greatly.

As a result, more people have been buying puters for their homes and businesses. They are used to record information and make difficult things easy.Let's look at some of the many ways puters may affect〔影响〕your life.Don't want to take a lot of money with you when you get around? Thanks to puters, you can just use your credit card〔信用卡〕wherever you go. puters at the bank keep a record of how much money you have and how much you pay.Want to get the best treatment〔治疗〕at hospitals? Your doctors at hospitals have been greatly helped by puters to get information about patients. It is possible for doctors from different hospitals to read the records of patients discuss them and make decisions on the best treatment. It would, at one time, take them hours or days to do so.Want to talk to your friends both at home and abroad? Then it's necessary to connect your puter to the Internet〔因特网〕and set up your own letter box. You can then collect and send mails in seconds. It will be a waste of time and money to post your letters.Want to get advice from Michael Jordan〔迈克尔·乔丹〕on how to play basketball like an NBA superstar? Now it is possible to find out what it is on the Internet.But if you think you've entered the information age because you have the chance to use the Internet, you are wrong. The reason is quite a simple one: over 98 percent of the information onthe Internet is in English. The information on-line won't be helpful to you unless you can use English freely.56. puters used to__________.A. work rapidlyB. be large and expensiveC. be easy to useD. be used for fun57.

Michael Jordan__________ on how to play basketball on the Internet.A. might advise youB. must advise youC. advises NBA super starsD. may advise NBA super starsDSome English words are made up of the same part and have different beginnings and different endings, such as import, export, report and transport. All these words, you can see, have the same root(词根) “port〞, which es from the Latin(拉丁文) word, meaning “to carry〞or “to move〞from one place to another. And according to the bit at the beginning—which we call the prefix(前缀), the meaning changes: “import〞means “to carry in〞, or “to bring into a country〞, “export〞, “ex〞means “out of〞, so this word means “to carry out of a country〞, “re〞means “back〞, so the word “report〞means “to tell somebody, to bring back information to somebody〞, “tr ansport〞, “trans〞means “across〞and it means “to carry across one place to another.〞Let’s look at the following words: supporter, reporter, importer and exporter. You can see that in this case these words are nouns which are made up of the verbs. Adding a suffix(后缀) “er〞to a verb means a person who does this thing. So supporter means somebody who supports. A reporter is somebody who reports. Importer is somebody who imports and exporter is somebody who exports, and so on.61. “Some English words are made up of the same part….〞in the sentence “part〞means______.A. different beginnings and different endingsB. the same part which has several meaningsC. the root of the wordD. the same root which has different meanings62. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Besides “port〞, most English words have the same root which es from the Latin word.B. “Port〞is the root forming some English words.C. The root “port〞means “to carry〞D. “Port〞is the root meaning “to move〞from one place to another.63. By adding a prefix or a suffix to a root, we can get a word which has ______.A. the meaning of a Latin wordB. a different meaningC. the meaning of “in〞or “out of〞D. the same meaning64. We can get a noun ______.A. just by adding “er〞to verbsB. by changing a prefixC. only by adding “er〞to a rootD. by adding a suffix to a verb65. According to the passage, if we talk about a repairman, you may guess(know) that he must be________ .A. somebody who has regained (恢复) healthB. a person who can repair somethingC. somebody who has good healthD. a person who can do only simple things。

"I tried to pick it up and it was really heavy and I saw teeth on it." The bone weighed about 50 pounds. They eventually got the bone to their home and fitted it in their tub (浴盆), but it took their collective strength, might and a golf cart, to carry the large Mastodon bone."They didn't expect to find that," Michael's mom said. "Now that they have, I believe that they will be more aware of their surroundings and what they're digging up when they are digging and playing.""We've gotten a lot of petrified (石化的) wood and Civil War relics from the area and that's what I thought it was," the brothers' mother said. "This is our first set of teeth we've found. So we thought it was their imagination. We were quite surprised to see that it was not their imagination."They were exploring near the brothers' home. Lo and behold (真想不到), they saw what they thought resembled a fossil. It was the curator of paleontology (古生物负责人) of the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science, George Phillips, who first identified the bone as a "very mature individual."The Mastodon was a mammal who lived during the prehistoric times. They had long tusks and trunks, like elephants. They were clearly different from their modern-day counterparts, as well as woolly mammoths (猛犸).(1)How did they find the jawbone of a Mastodon?A. With great efforts.B. By chance.C. Instructed by an expert.D. Through imagination.(2)At first the brothers' mother thought the jawbone was .A. from people who died in the Civil WarB. the bone from a very mature individualC. like a log or somethingD. the prehistoric bone(3)The discovery of the jawbone of a Mastodon is important mainly because it .A. helps people to know more about the Civil WarB. teaches kids to be more aware of their surroundingsC. promotes the research on more prehistoric creaturesD. attracts the Mississippi Museum of Natural Science(4)Which of the following can be the best title for the article?A. Prehistoric Bones Recently Found in MississippiB. Not Petrified Wood Nor Civil War RelicsC. First Identifying Bone as a "Very Mature Individual"D. Unexpectedly Discovering Mastodon Jawbone【答案】(1)B(2)A(3)C(4)D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,美国密西西比的三个男孩在玩耍的时候无意中发现了齿乳象的颚骨,起初他们并不知道这是史前生物的遗骸,所发现的遗骸对史前生物的研究有较强的促进作用。

One day, his mother asked him to take some food and medicine to his sick grandmother.Little Red Riding Hood happily agreed and set off on his journey. As he walked through the forest, he met a wolf. The wolf was very hungry and wanted to eat Little Red Riding Hood. But Little Red Riding Hood was wearing a red hood and the wolf couldn't see his face. So the wolf asked him where he was going.Little Red Riding Hood told the wolf that he was going to see his grandmother and give her the food and medicine. The wolf quickly thought of a plan to capture Little Red Riding Hood and his grandmother.He followed Little Red Riding Hood to his grandmother's house and waited outside. When Little Red Riding Hood came out of the house,the wolf jumped out and captured him. The wolf then went inside the house and ate Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother.After that, he put on the grandmother's clothes and waited for Little Red Riding Hood to wake up. When Little Red Riding Hood finally woke up, he was very surprised to see the wolf standing over him. The wolf pretended to be Little Red Riding Hood's grandmother and asked him why he had taken so long to get there.Little Red Riding Hood explained that he had met a wolf on the way who had asked him where he was going. The "grandmother" became angry and said that he should never talk to strangers. She then asked him if he had brought her the food and medicine.Little Red Riding Hood quickly realized that the woman in front of him was not his grandmother. He jumped up and tried to escape, but the wolf chased after him and caught him. Just as the wolf was about to eat him, a group of hunters arrived and scared off the wolf. They saved Little Red Riding Hood and took him back to his mother.From then on, Little Red Riding Hood learned a valuable lesson: never trust strangers or go anywhere alone.。

高一英语阅读理解-CAL-FENGHAI.-(YICAI)-Company One1阅读01Butterflies are common all over the world, but the ones in hot countries are usually bigger and more brightly colored than those in cooler countries and there are more different kinds. Usually the male butterflies more brightly colored than the female. The female have bigger and heavier bodies, since they carry the eggs. The gay (鲜艳的) colors of the male help to attract (吸引) the female and the duller colors of the female make them less likely to be caught by enemies before they have laid their eggs.Some butterflies have a bright pattern of colors on the upper surface of their wings, which show when they fly, but when they rest on a tree or leaf, they close their wings. On the undersides of their wings there are green and brown markings which look like the tree or leaf. They are then difficult to see. The best example of this is the Dead Leaf Butterfly. When its wings are close, it looks exactly like a dead leaf. There are even marks that look like the holes in a dead leaf. When a bird is chasing a butterfly, and it close its wings, it seems to have disappeared completely.Many butterflies have round marks on their wings that look like eyes. When they are resting, and their wings are folded, these cannot be seen. When a bird sees one, and begins to attack it, the butterfly opens its wings. The bird thinks that it sees two eyes staring at it, and it is frightened to fly away.1. Where are the butterflies always bigger and more brightly colored?A. In the places where it is hot.B. In the places that are far from the sun.C. In the south.D. In the north.2. Why do the female butterflies have bigger and heavier bodies?A. They can help than to attract the male.B. They can make them likely to be caught by enemies.C. They carry eggs.D. They don't like to fly higher.3. What are green and brown markings on the undersides of the butterflies' wings for?A. The butterflies want to show them when they fly.B. It is helpful for them to chase a bird.C. When the butterflies close their wings, they disappeared completely.D. The markings can sometimes help to protect the butterflies.阅读02When a group of children politely stop a conversation with you, saying, "We have to go to work now", you're left feeling surprised and certainly uneasy. After all, this is the 1990s and the idea of children working is just unthinkable. That is, until you are told that they are all pupils of stage schools and that the "work" they go off to is to go on the stage in a theatre.Stage schools often act as agencies (代理机构) to supply children for stage and television work. More worthy of the name "stage school" are those few places where children attend full time with a training for the theatre and a general education.A visit to such schools will leave you in no doubt that the children enjoy themselves. After all, what lively children wouldn't settle for spending only half the day doing ordinary schoolwork and acting, singing or dancing their way through the other half of the day?Then of course there are times for the children to make a name and make a little money in some big shows. Some stage schools give their children too much professional work at such a young age. But the law is very tight on the amount they can do. Those under 13 are limited to 40 days in the year; those over 13 do 80 days.The schools themselves admit that not all children will be successful in the profession for which they are being trained. So what happens to those who don't make itWhile all the leading schools say they place great importance on children getting good study results, the facts seem to suggest this is not always the case.1. People would stop feeling uneasy when realizing that the children they're talking to ________.A. attend a stage schoolB. are going to the theatreC. have got some work to doD. love singing and dancing2.

"Professional work" as used in the text means_________.A. ordinary school workB. money-making performancesC. stage training at schoolD. acting, singing or dancing after class4. Which of the following best describes how the writer feels about stage schools?A. He thinks highly of what they have to offer.B. He favors an early start in the training of performing arts.C. He feels uncomfortable about children putting on night shows .D. He doubts the standard of ordinary education they have reached .阅读03Many people like cooking but never have much time for it.

Students carry small radios with earphones and listen to music before class, after class, and at lunch. Students with cars buy large speakers and play the music loudly as they drive on the street.Adult drivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work. They also listen to the news about sports, the weather , and the life of American people. Most of the radio programmes are music.Pop or popular music singers make much money.

Our shopkeeper, Mr. Soames, has always been careful about this. If his customers (顾客) are very young, he always asks them whom the cigarettes are for.One day a little girl walked into his shop and asked twenty cigarettes. She had the exact amount of money in her hand and seemed very sure of herself. Mr Soames was so surprised by her confident (充满自信的) manner that he forgot to ask his usual questions. He asked her what kind of cigarettes she wanted. The girl replied quickly and handed him the money. While he was giving her the cigarettes, Mr Soames said laughingly that she was so young and she should hide the packet in her pocket so as not to be found by a policeman. But the little girl did not seem to find this very funny. Without even smiling she took the packet and walked towards the door. Suddenly she stopped, turned round, and looked steadily at Mr Soames. There was a moment's deathly silence and Mr Soames wondered what she was going to say. All at once, in a clear voice, the girl said, "My dad is a policeman."

Last week their school year was over and he wouldn't stay in the hot city and wanted to go the cool village to see his grandparents and be on holiday there. Mr. Young had to take him there. On their way there, a traffic accident happened. Their bus ran very fast. Suddenly the driver found an old woman was crossing the road. He began to stop the bus, but it was too late. She was knocked down and soon died, and the bus hit a big tree and was badly damaged(损坏) . The people in the bus had to get off and stay in a small hotel overnight. Mr. Young wouldn't let Richard see the dead woman, but the little boy had seen all.After supper they both felt tired. Mr. Young moved his bed close to the boy's and turned off the light. A few minutes later Richard said, "It's very dark in the room, isn't it"Of course the man understood what it meant. He said, "Yes, but everything is all right."

For example, in 1988 the hourly wages of women in the U.S. were 16% less than those of men. The gap between male and female incomes varies (变化)with age. The gap between the labor incomes of young women and young men is much smaller than that between middle-aged women and men. It is also clear that jobs in which women are concentrated (集中) pay less. The larger the number of workers who are women is, the lower the average wages are.Why do women earn less than men Is the cause of the gap that women are looked down upon If so, the government has to intervene (干涉), to force the employers to pay equal wages to equal jobs. However, there is no agreement among economists (经济学家) about the causes of the gap. One view argues that women have chosen low-paying jobs in which workers enjoy the freedom of entering and leaving the labor, which reduces their years of experience relative to men. Other people say the gap can also be explained by the difference in educational background. It is just the difference that cause the difference in productivity between men and women.Much of the gap, however, has not been fully explained. It might be the result of some bias against women. What would happen if the government did intervene to increase the wages paid to women One possibility is that incomes for women as a group might actually decline (下降). An increase in wage decreases the demanded (被需求的) quantity of labor input, and then the rate of hiring new workers declines. The result will be a surplus of labor.1.The difference is not very obvious between __________.A. young men and young womenB. middle-aged men and middle-aged womenC. young men and middle-aged womenD. young women and middle-aged men2.Some economists believe women earn less than men partly because _________.A. women are less experienced than menB. women have more freedom in selecting their jobsC. there are more women than men in the laborD. they are only provided with low-paying jobs3.Which of the following cannot be inferred from the second paragraph?A. Women receive less education than men.B. Goods produced by women are not as good as those by men.C. Women can' t make the same productivity as men.D. Economists don' t think the causes of the gap are women' s being looked down upon.4.What does author suggest that for the women workers the government should do?A. To pay as much as men.B. To explain why women are paid less.C. To force employers to hire less men.D. None of the above.5.What would happen if women's wages were raised?A. The unemployment rate would go up.B. Women as a group would earn more than before.C. Men as a group would earn less than before.D. The women would own more money than men.阅读Nomads (游牧部落) are people who have no fixed homes but move regularly from place to place. Hunting peoples, such as the Bushmen, Pygmies (俾格米人,中非个子矮小的一种黑人) and Australian aborigines (土著人) move in search of large animal population. Pastoral (适于放牧牛羊的) nomads, in the Middle East and Central Asia, move with the seasons to find pasture (牧场) for their animals. Other patrol peoples, also dependent on the seasons, grow crops but move to other places after their crops need no attention. Some agricultural workers, in the United States particularly, follow a nomadic life also, going northward during the growing and harvesting season and returning to the warmer southern regions in the winter. Generally speaking, the nomads' movements are regulated by the seasons and the effects of the seasons on plants and animal lives.1.Which of the following statements best expresses the main idea of this paragraph?A. There are still some nomadic peoples left in the modern world.B. In search of large animal population, nomads move from one place to another.C. Seasons and their effects on plants and animal lives regulate nomads' movement .D. Bushmen, Pygmies and Australian aborigines are nomadic peoples.2. The best title of this paragraph could be __________.A. Where There Is a Large Animal Population, There Are NomadsB. Characters of NomadsC. Two Decisive Factors of Nomads' MovementD. Some American Agricultural Workers-Nomadic Peoples of New Era3. According to this paragraph, why do some nomadic people leave their crops after they grow them?A. Because their crops needn't be taken care of.B. Because they regret growing them. .C. Because they can hunt many more animals in other places.D. Because their movements depend on the seasons, too.4.According to this paragraph, which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Australian aborigines follow the movements of large groups of animals.B. Some American agricultural workers go back to the north for cold winter.C. Nomads in the Middle East move with the seasons to look for pasture for their cattle.D. Some pastoral peoples also move from one place to another.阅读Human beings have adapted (使……适应) to the physical world not by changing their physical nature but by adjusting (调整) their society. Animals and plants have made adjustments over long periods, by development of thorough and complete changes in their very organisms.(有机组织) Hereditary (遗传的) differences meet needs of various environments. (环境) But among human beings, differences in head form and in other physical features (特征) are not, in most cases, clearly adaptive. Nor is it clear that mental capacities of races are different. As far as we know, the races are equally intelligent (聪明的) and equally capable of solving their problems of living together. The different ways of life, it seems, are social and learned differences and not physical and hereditary differences. It stands to reason, therefore, that man's adjustment to his surroundings should be studied in custom and institution (制度), not in anatomy (身体结构) and neural structure (神经系统的构造).1.According to the paragraph, anyone who wanted to study human adaptation to environment should do so through the field of _______.A. physicsB. sociology (社会学)C. archaeology (考古学)D. medicine2.According to the paragraph, man has adapted to the physical world by changing _________.A. other physical featureB. hereditary differencesC. head formD. social systems3.In order to _________, animals have made adjustments over long periods by development of thorough and complete changes in their very organisms.A. develop themselvesB. adapt to their living surroundingsC. have a larger populationD. have a greater number of offsprings (后代)4.Which of the following ideas is the writer not in favour of?A. Human beings have adapted to the world by the adjustment of their society.B. Head form of humans and their other features are basically not adaptive .C. Different races vary a lot in their intelligences.D. Generally speaking, the races have equal abilities of solving their problems of living together peacefully.阅读These days people more and more care for their weight. For example, as 70,000, 000 Americans are perhaps on weight- reducing diets, and weight control has become a very large business. There are different kinds of diet foods in the markets such as soft drinks, diet cakes, diet salad dressings. Dieters also spend much money on diet pills, exercise machines and so on. Each year scores of new diets become popular all over America. They have such name as the Miracle Diet, the Nine-Day Wonder Diet, and the Easy 24-Hour Diet. There is even one called the Ice Cream Diet, which advises the dieter to eat only ice cream for lunch and dinner! For dieters who cannot lose weight on their own, there are many well-prepared diet groups, which give them help and encouragement.1.The word "dieters" means those who _________.A. want to lose weightB. have important dietsC. take weight-reducing dietsD. have healthy diets2.The control of weight has become a large business because _________.A. a large number of Americans want to lose weightB. weight-reducing diets are not cheapC. more and more people care for their weightD. there are many different kinds of diet foods3.The meaning of "Nine-Day Diet" is that _________.A. the dieter is sure to lose some weight only in 9 days by taking the dietB. the dieter must have food 9 times a dayC. the dieter shouldn't eat anything in 9 daysD. the dieter needs 9 days4.The writer _________ the diet foods can help one lose weight.A. is sure thatB. doesn't believe thatC. doesn't understandD. wants to let us understand阅读PALO ALTO, California - "Switching off the television may help prevent children from getting fatter - even if they do not change their diet or increase the amount they exercise," US researchers said last week.A study of l92 third and fourth graders, generally aged eight and nine, found that children who cut the number of hours spent watching television gained nearly two pounds ( 0.91 kg ) less over a one-year period than those who did not change their television diet ."The findings are important because they show that weight loss can only be the result of a reduction in television viewing and not any other activity," said Thomas Robinson, a pediatrician (儿科专家) at Stanford University."American children spend an average of more than four hours per day watching television and videos or playing video games, and rates of childhood being very fat have doubled over the past 20 years," Robinson said .In the study, presented this week to the Pediatric Academic Societies' annual meeting in San Francisco, the researchers persuaded about 100 of the students to reduce their television viewing by one-quarter to one-third.Children watching fewer hours of television showed a significantly smaller increase in waist size and had less body fat than other students who continued their normal television viewing, even though neither group ate a special diet or took part in any extra exercise."One explanation for the weight loss could be the children unstuck to the television may simply have been moving around more and burning off calories," Robinson said."Another reason might be due to eating more meals in front of the television. Some studies have suggested that eating in front of the TV encourages people to eat more, " Robinson said.1.What does the author try to tell us in the first two paragraphs?A. Children will get fatter if they eat too much.B. Children will get thinner if they eat less.C. Children will get fatter if they spend less time watching TVD. Children will get fatter if they spend more time watching TV2.According to the passage, the time American children usually spend on watching TV ______.A. is more than four hours a dayB. is less than four hours a dayC. doubled in the last twenty yearsD. is more than on any other activities3.How much time are children suggested to spend on TV viewing every day ________.A.

Children usually eat everything while watching TV.5.Why can watching TV increase kids' weight according to the passage?A. They usually eat more while watching TV.B. They burn off fewer calories.C. They change their diet while watching TV.D. Both A and B.阅读If you ask people to name the one person who had the greatest effect on the English language, you will get answers like "Shakespeare," "Samuel Johnson," and "Webster," but none of these men had any effect at all compared to a man who didn't even speak English-William the Conqueror.Before 1066, in the land we now call Great Britain lived peoples belonging to two major language groups. In the west-central region lived the Welsh, who spoke a Celtic language, and in the north lived the Scots, whose language, though not the same as Welsh, was also Celtic. In the rest of the country lived the Saxons, actually a mixture of Anglos, Saxons, and other Germanic and Nordic peoples, who spoke what we now call Anglo-Saxon (or Old English), a Germanic language. If this state of affairs had lasted, English today would be close to German.But this state of affairs did not last. In 1066 the Normans led by William defeated the Saxons and began their rule over England. For about a century, French became the official language of England while Old English became the language of peasants. As a result, English words of politics and the law come from French rather than German. In some cases, modern English even shows a distinction (区别) between upper-class French and lower-class Anglo-Saxon in its words. We even have different words for some foods, meat in particular, depending on whether it is still out in the fields or at home ready to be cooked, which shows the fact that the Saxon peasants were doing the farming, while the upper-class Normans were doing most of the eating.When Americans visit Europe for the first time, they usually find Germany more "foreign" than France because the German they see on signs and advertisements seems much more different from English than French does. Few realize that the English language is actually Germanic in its beginning and that the French influences are all the result of one man's ambition.1.The two major languages spoken in what is now called Great Britain before 1066 were______.A. Welsh and ScottishB. Nordic and GermanicC. Celtic and Old EnglishD. Anglo-Saxon and Germanic2.Which of the following groups of words are, by inference, rooted in French?A. president; lawyer; beefB. president; bread; waterC. bread; field: sheepD. folk; field; cow3.Why does France appear less foreign than Germany to Americans on their first visit to Europe?A. Most advertisements in France appear in English.B. They know little of the history of the English language.C. Many French words are similar to English ones.D. They know French better than German.4.What is the subject discussed in the text?A. The history of Great Britain.B. The similarity between English and French.。

新闻报道类 (I)★★★ MONTREAL (Reuters) – Crossing the US-Canada border(边界)to go to church on a Sunday cost a US citizen $10,000 for breaking Washington’s strict new security (安全)rules. The expensive trip to church was a surprise for Richard Albert, who lives right on the Canadian border. Like the other half-dozen people of Township 15, crossing the border is a daily occurrence for Albert. The nearby Quebec village of St. Pamphile is where they shop, eat and go to church. There are many such situations in these areas along the largely unguarded 5,530-mile border between Canada and the US-which in some cases actually runs down the middle of streets or through buildings. As a result, Albert says he did not expect any problems three weeks ago when he returned home to the US after attending church in Canada, as usual.
