高一英语阅读理解题20套(带答案)含解析一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解“Years ago when I was at the Grand Canyon, I remembered someone coming up to the canyon's edge, taking a shot with a camera and then walking away, like 'got it – done', barely even glancing at the magnificent sce ne in front of him,” Linda Henkel, a scientist at Fairfield University, US told Live Science.Henkel was surprised by how obsessed (痴迷的) people are with taking pictures these days - before dinner, during friends' birthday parties, on museum tours and so on.They keep taking pictures because they think that it helps record the moment, but as Henkel's latest study has just found out, this obsession may prevent their brains remembering what actually happened, reported The Guardian.In her study, Henkel led a group of college students around a museum and asked them to simply observe 15 objects and photograph 15 others. The next day the students' memory of the tour was tested, and the results showed that they were less accurate in recognizing the objects and they remembered fewer details about them if they photographed them.''When people rely on technology to remember them — counting on the camera to record the event and thus not needing to attend to it fully themselves, it can have a negative impact on how well they remember their experiences,” Henkel explained.But there is also an exception: if students zoomed in to photograph part of an object, their memory actually improved, and those who focused the lens (镜头) on a specific area could even recall parts that weren't in the frame.So basically, this study is saying that constantly taking pictures can harm your memory. But shouldn't reviewing pictures we have taken help wake up our memories? This is true, but only if we spend enough time doing it.“In order to remember, we have to access and interact with the photos, rather than just collect them,” Henkel told The Telegraph. However, previous research has shown that most people never take the time to look over their digital pictures simply because there are too many of them and they aren't usually very organized on their computers.(1)Why did the author mention Henkel's trip to the Grand Canyon at the beginning? A. To complain about some tourists' bad habits. B. To give suggestions on how to enjoy one's tour.C. To point out people's obsession with taking pictures.D. To describe the beautiful view of the Grand Canyon.(2)What can we learn from Henkel's study?A. Reviewing pictures always helps people bring back memories easily.B. Taking pictures in a museum tour helps students recognize objects better.C. People should spend more time taking pictures than studying real objects.D. Pictures focusing on the details of objects probably improve people's memories.(3)The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 probably refers to “________”.A. the cameraB. technologyC. the eventD. an object(4)What is the article mainly about?A. People's obsession with taking pictures and its influence.B. Possible ways of using pictures to improve one's memory.C. Great harm to memory caused by taking pictures constantly.D. A believable study into the negative impact of lining cameras often.【答案】(1)C(2)D(3)C(4)A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇议论文,人们都有拍照的喜好,拍照有助于我们记忆。

As Brazilian landowners cut down rainforests to make room for profitable plantations(种植园) and cattle grounds, he struggled to bring the jungles of his childhood back to life."When I was a child, the peasants cut down the trees to make grasslands and charcoal, and the water dried up and did not come back," he told the reporters, "I thought: 'Water is valuable, no one makes water and the population will not stop growing. What is going to happen? We are going to run out of water.'"With only some donkeys and a small team of hired workers, Antonio Vicente set about bringing back the forest to his land. What started out as a weekend hobby soon became a permanent way of life, and Antonio recalls often spending whole days and nights in his young jungle, surrounded by rats and foxes, and eating banana sandwiches for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Over the last 40 years, he has planted an estimated 50,000 trees on his 31-hectare land, which now make up a small but unique area of rainforest, and a haven for wildlife.As the forest grew, the water returned, and Antonio says that there are now over 20 water, sources on his land that were no longer there when he bought it. Then the animals started making a home there. Today, the forest is alive with the sounds of birds and insects living there, and more species are settling in every year."There are toucans(巨嘴鸟), all kinds of birds, squirrels, lizards, and even the boars are returning," 83-year-old Vicente says, "If you ask me who my family are, I would say all this right here, each one of these that I planted from a seed."(1)What do we learn about the Brazilian peasants?A. They wasted much water on farming.B. They focused on short-term profits.C. They cared much about the environment.D. They relied heavily on rainforests for a living.(2)What used to be young Antonio's biggest concern?A. Overpopulation.B. Polluted water.C. Loss of grasslands.D. Water shortage.(3)What does the underlined word "haven" in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. TrapB. DisasterC. ShelterD. Balance(4)In the last paragraph, Antonio mainly expresses his .A. affection for his forestB. thanks for his familyC. deep love for rare birdsD. pride as a successful farmer【答案】(1)B(2)D(3)C(4)A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,83岁的安东尼奥•比森特在他生命的最后40年里一直在与这种趋势作斗争,他努力使童年的丛林恢复生机。

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’.

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.

AWhile beach vacations may be a great way to take your mind off work, people tend to forget about lakes, which can be as equally beautiful a travel destination as beach holidays. If you are looking for some peace on your vacation, we have some recommendations for you in the Caucasus.1). Lake VanLake Van is the must-visit of all lakes on this list. The largest lake in Turkey, Lake Van is located on the eastern shore of Turkey and is also the most accessible lake there. It's situated at 5,380ft above sea level, and unique to lakes around the world, the water is high in salt content.2) .Lake CildirLake Cildir is located in Ardahan Province, East Turkey, near the borders of Georgia and Armenia. It is the second largest freshwater lake in Eastern Turkey, and many tourists are not aware of this beautiful attraction. Lake Cildir is surrounded by mountains of the Caucasus. The lake freezes during late November. If the winter is not harsh, you can try some lake activities like ice skating and ice fishing.3). Lake ParavaniLake Paravani is located in the south of Georgia. This time, the elevation(海拔)gets a little higher, as this lake is located at 6,801ft above sea level. At this level, altitude sickness can occur and it is a good idea to bring medication for altitude sickness. Being a volcanic lake makes for a more interesting experience. The lake is best known for fishing.4). Lake SevenLake Seven is situated in the central part of Armenia, in Gegharkunik Province. It is the largest lake in Armenia, located at 6,200ft above sea level. Along the lake shore, there are various kinds of accommodation such as resorts and hotels, withplenty of activities to take part in, such as windsurfing, swimming and sunbathing.

Dad worked hard to support our family and Mom tried to save money while making sure we had enough food to eat and clothes to wear. One of their greatest desires was to raise decent, loving children who had an opportunity to finish college.My brother, Gene, never hesitated to learn new things. He had an artistic hand, so he went into fine arts for a while. He also did a lot of screens about computers. He became so good at it that the school hired him to teach there after he completed his studies. My younger brother also pursued computers, following in his footsteps.Gene did not have a history of any health problems from his very young age to adulthood. One day,he came home from teaching, ate his dinner and went to bed. That evening,my “healthy” brother died suddenly of a cardiac arrest(心跳骤停).My parents were extremely sad.At the viewing in the funeral house, amidst the sadness, my parents felt so much pride. So many people came and each was relating a story of how they were touched by Gene.A cleaner came to say that practically every day Gene brought him a sandwich. Finally, Mom found out why Gene had taken so many sandwiches to school! Then there was a man who came in bringing money, saying that Gene had lent him some when he was down and out. Gene had never asked him for the money back.From the school president to the guard, people came. And because of his good heart and deeds, my younger brother was awarded a full scholarship in the school as a tribute to my dead brother.In the end, my parents realized that even at the young age of 26, my brother had lived a full life and was very instrumental in helping others live theirs a little better.24. What was the biggest wish of the author’s parents?A. To have a better life.B. To save enough money for the future.C. To give their children a college education.D.

He taught fine arts in his school.27. What is the message conveyed in the passage?A. Good deeds deserve praise.B. A friend in need is a friend indeed.C. Kindness in students should be encouraged.D. The meaning of life consists in its devotion, not its length.CMany people don’t consider their breakfast without a glass of milk. Right now, cows, buffalos, goats and sheep provide most of the world’s milk. But soon, people could get milk from roaches(蟑螂).That isn’t as crazy as it might sound. New research shows this “milk” is super-nutritious. What’s more, some scientists have already begun referring to a lot of insects as source of milk.In 2004, Subramanian Ramaswamy started studying milk crystals found inside the roach. At the time, he was teaching biochemistry at the University of Iowa City.To learn more about the milk crystal from roaches, the scientists used X-rays to look at the atoms in it. The data basically revealed the chemical recipe of the roach crystal. They showed that roach milk is a “complete food”. It contains sugar with a fatty acid stuck to it. Fatty acids are the building blocks of fats. The protein in the milk is also full of essential amino(氨基的) acids, which are the building blocks of proteins. Since our bodies can’t produce the “essential” ones, we need to get them from our food. And so do baby roaches.Barbara Stay, a biologist at Iowa University, also worked on the new study. She says the new data show that the roach milk is “three times more nutritious than cow’s milk and four times more nutritious than buffalo’s milk”.Ramaswamy would like to see roach milk turned into a protein supplement to feed hungry people. But not everyone is confident that it can be done.Marcel Dicke studies insects as a potential source of human food at Wageningen University in the Netherlands. Dicke says this is a “sound study”. However, in his opinion, “Extracting(提取) milk from roaches can only likely be done in a destructive way with only small quantities”. That means you’d have to raise and kill many bugs to get even tiny quantities of the milk.28. What is the opinion of the scientists about milk in Paragraph 2?A. Many insects are sources of milk.B. Milk is an important part of breakfast.C. Milk from insects is the most nutritious.D. Milk from insects is well accepted now.29. What can we know about the use of roach milk in life?A. It will replace the milk from animals like cows.B. Scientists think it the key to solving world hunger.C. All people don’t think it can be used in life soon.D. Most people depend on roach milk from protein.30. According to Marcel Dicke, extracting insect milk on a large scale is ________.A. simpleB. challengingC. safeD. necessary31. What should be the best title for the text?A. Roach milk has been found scientificallyB. Roach milk could be produced industriallyC. Roach milk could be a new super foodD. Roach milk will be widely used soonDPhilip Pullman spent a great deal of his childhood traveling abroad because both his father and stepfather were pilots in the Royal Air Force(皇家空军). As a child, he went on several long ocean voyages, and he lived in Africa and in Australia. “Before I was 11 I had been to eight different schools.”“In Australia, I made a great discovery. TV hadn’t reached Australia yet, but everyone listened to the radio. I remember listening to gangster serials(黑帮剧), and cowboy serials, and best of all-----Superman! When I first saw a superman comic(连环漫画), it changed my life. I’d been reading books for a long time, but I’d never known comics before. Soon afterwards, I discovered Batman, too, whom I loved even more.”Pullman started writing his first novel the day after he had finished his final exams at Oxford University. “ I discovered after about an hour that it was much harder than I’d expected. It still is! I found that the amount I could write comfortably every day was about three pages, so that’s what I’ve done ever since.”Before he became a full-time writer, Pullman had been teaching for many years. “What I enjoyed most during that time was telling stories over and over, until I knew them as well as I knew my own life.” He had always loved telling stories----as aschoolboy he had entertained his friends by reading stories to them, or by making up his own.One day he got a letter that had arrived at his door even though the writer of the letter didn’t know his address.

This note helped us in preparing for their arrival. As they would be here for a number of days, his daughter wanted to make his trip to Ireland as smooth as possible.Upon seeing this note and knowing I would be the one to check them in, I decided to learn some very basic sign language. I greeted the guest in my usual fashion, asking for the surname on the booking. Once I heard the name,I immediately realized who was standing in front of me.I had been learning for two weeks how to say: "Welcome to Ireland. My sign language is terrible, but please, if you need anything during your stay, just let me know and we will help you."I smiled at the father and daughter in front of me. Turning to the father, I greeted him in ASL (American Sign Language) and began the bit I had learned for him. His daughter broke down crying and told me I was sweet. But the father just smiled and was so happy. Honestly, seeing his reaction was enough for me. It was absolutely worth the last few weeks of learning basic ASL.Sadly, I wasn't working the day they checked out, but they left a gift for me, a small box with some chocolates and a book on ASL. Inside was a note saying: "Thank you very much for what you did. My father has been in amazing spirits from the time you checked us in and insisted we get you a gift before we left. You have no idea how much this meant to my father and me, and we can't thank you enough.

"You'll be blind by the time you're twenty-five," a doctor at Children's Hospital predicted. "Your blood sugars are much too high." It consumed me. No matter where I was or what I was doing, it was overhead like a dark cloud, waiting for just the right opportunity to break open and destroy my world.I liked painting. Losing myself in painting filled me with peace. Painting provided me with the only place where I could escape from those threatening words.When I was twenty-one, my right eye went blind. Precisely three months after my twenty-fifth birthday, I had a massive hemorrhage (大出血) in my left eye because of an accident. For the next twenty years, vision came and went. I went through many eye operations in an attempt to keep my vision. But after one final operation, I lost the battle and all remaining vision. And I buried all dreams of painting.Desperate, I enrolled in (注册) a sixteen-week program for the blind and visually impaired (损伤的). I learned personal adjustment and the use of a computer with adaptive software. A whole new world opened up to me through this program."Jaws and Window-Eyes are leading software for the blind," my instructor told me. "You can use the Internet, e-mail and Microsoft with all its tools and features." It's amazing! Hope went up for the first time in years. "By learning how to use hot keys to control the mouse, you can use Microsoft Access, Excel and Powerpoint," my instructor added.For the next several years, I learned that when one door closes, another door opens. There are plenty of choices available for the blind and visually impaired through the gift of technology. Not only do I have a speaking computer, but I have a speaking watch, alarm clock and calculator.(1)What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. The right opportunity.B.

高一英语阅读理解真题汇编(含答案)及解析一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解United States health officials are urging people to stop using electronic cigarettes, known as e-cigarettes. The call to action came after such products were linked to health problems. Five deaths have also been reported. E-cigarettes are a popular substitute for smoking products. The electronic devices heat liquid that includes flavoring, nicotine and other chemicals into vapor—very small particles that users breathe in. Nicotine is found in many plants, including tobacco. E-cigarettes or similar devices also can provide THC or other substances to users. THC is the natural chemical present in marijuana(大麻) plants that gives users the mental state known as a "high". E-cigarettes are said to be safer than normal cigarettes because they do not create the cancer-causing byproducts of burning tobacco. Yet health officials say e-cigarette users have reported shortness of breath and other breathing problems, such as coughing and chest pain. Some have been sick to the stomach, felt very tired, suffered weight loss or developed high body temperatures. One report noted that most of the 53 illnesses reported in Illinois and Wisconsin were related to THC vaping(气化) products. But nearly 20 percent of the patients inhaled(吸入)substances like nicotine from e-cigarettes. Most of the reported cases were of young men.The report found that, "Since no single product or substance has been associated with the illness, persons should consider not using e-cigarettes while this investigation is ongoing." Last November, The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or CDC, reported that "e-cigarette use increased considerably among U.S. middle and high school students during 2017—2018." Among high school students, it found e-cigarette use rose from 220,000 students in 2011 to 3.05 million in 2018.On Monday, the Food and Drug Administration, or FDA gave a warning to JUUL Labs, maker of the best-selling e-cigarettes. The FDA accused the company of illegally marketing its products as being "safer than cigarettes" without the agency's approval. In a statement, the FDA's acting commissioner said that, "JUUL has ignored the law, and has made some of these statements in school to our nation's youth." A JUUL spokesman said the company is studying the FDA's comments and "will fully cooperate".(1)Which of the following can best describe e-cigarettes?A.Deadly.B.Harmless.C.Infectious.D.Effective.(2)What change will be caused when smokers inhale e-cigarettes containing THC?A.They will be healthier.B.They will lose weight.C.They will feel excited.D.They will be peaceful.(3)What information about JUUL Labs can we get from the last paragraph?A.Students became its main marketing targets.B.FDA didn't agree on its way of promoting its products.C.It completely denied what it was accused of.D.E-cigarettes were invented by it.(4)What can be the best title of the passage?A.Say "No" to cigarettesB.A sharp rise of e-cigarettes use among young people.C.Safer e-cigarettes are needed for health.D.E-cigarettes—a potential killer.【答案】(1)A(2)C(3)B(4)D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道,美国卫生官员敦促人们停止使用电子烟,电子烟同人们的健康问题有关。

Natsuko explains that she wanted to give her grandmother something to enjoy. "I can clearly see her English is getting better. It's my joy now."The EF English Proficiency Index is a measure of the level of English spoken in a country. Japan ranks 49th among countries where English is not the first language. This situation is slowly changing as younger generations welcome English. However, Takamizawa believes real change will not happen unless Japanese people become more open to the rest of the world.

It also was short, lasting for only 10 minutes. Immediately after each session of the sitting or slow pedaling, the people completed a computerized memory test during which they would see a brief picture of, for instance, a tree, followed by a variety of other images and then a new image of either the same tree or a similar one. The people would press buttons to show whether they thought each image was new or the same as an earlier shot. The test is difficult, since many of the images closely resemble one another. It requires rapid, skillful scanning recent memories to decide whether a picture is new or known. Next, the scientists had each people repeat this process--riding or sitting on the bike for 10 minutes and then completing memory testing--but the testing now took place inside an M. R. I. machine(磁共振成像仪)that scanned the people's brains while they responded to the images.Then the researchers compared results. The effects of the exercise were clear. The people were better at remembering images after they had ridden the bike, especially when the images most closely resembled one another. In other words, the harder their memories had to do their best, the better they performed after the exercise. The M. R. I. scans showed that memory parts of each people's brain lit up at the same time with parts of the brain associated with learning, indicating that these physically separate parts of the brain were better connected now than when the people had not first exercised.(1)How did the researchers conduct the study?A. By filling up questionnaires.B. By interviewing many people.C. By comparing experiment data.D. By referring to historical reports.(2)Who might benefit most from the study result?A. The marketers promoting fixed bicycles.B. The young people crazy about body building.C. The white collars doing long-term mental work.D. The blue-collars doing heavy physical labor work.(3)Which of the following statements agrees with the study result?A. The light exercise is only good for young people.B. The more the exercise is, the better the brain works.C. The exercise can coordinate different parts of the body.D. The exercise has more positive effect when the brain works harder.(4)What can be the best title for the text?A. Even ten minutes' exercise may be good for the brainB. There is no need for humans doing exercise every dayC. Only ten minutes' light exercise benefits the young mostD.

I love having beautiful flowers-but I don't have a good track record when it comes to making them grow.A few months after our son left for the Middle East, my friend gifted me a box of tulip bulbs (郁金香球茎). She explained that these bulbs were put into the ground in the fall and lay sleeping all winter. They had all the nutrients they needed inside the bulb and would come out in the spring. ''When you see the leaves of the tiny flowers pushing toward the sun, you'll know that it's almost time for your son to come home. They'll give you what you need most.'' She walked me through the process of planting them. I thanked her — trying to show my gratitude for her gift.It was a long winter — cold and dark. I endured both the weather and the loneliness and fear I felt with my son away. Dead leaves, frost and finally a heavy snow covered the area where I'd planted those flowers, and I soon forgot they were there.Finally the weather began to warm. One day, as I walked down my front steps, I noticed an area of green. I bent down to inspect the situation more clearly and saw that those tulips had begun to grow, their tiny leaves forcing their way to the sun.Day after day I noted the flowers' progress. And day after day, the time approached when my son would finally be home. Now with spring just around the corner, nothing could keep either of us from marching toward the light. Almost all of those bulbs bloomed. And with each brightly colored flower, I marked off one day closer to getting to hold my son in my arms again.(1)What can we know about the author?A.She is a professional gardener.B.She is not good at growing flowers.C.She never plants flowers at home.D.She often sends friends flowers as gifts.(2)Why did the writer forget the tulip bulbs soon?A.The bitter winter reminded her of her son far away.B.She was discouraged from making another attempt.C.They failed to live through the cold and long winter.D.She had no hope for beautiful flowers indeed.(3)What were those flowers mentioned in the last paragraph referred to?A.A physical representation of the hope.B.Things deep inside her heart and soul.C.A lesson she will never forget completely.D.The trouble she had in making them come out.(4)What can be a suitable title for the text?A.A dark winter with hope.B.Planting hope in winter.C.An area of green in spring.D.Living a changeable life.【答案】(1)B(2)D(3)A(4)B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,作者的儿子去了中东,作者感到孤独和寂寞。

Lydia is Korean, and her family moved to our city so her husband could go to graduate school. We started talking, and she was apologetic about how bad her English was, but I didn't care. I knew how hard it was to learn a second language. I enjoyed chatting with Lydia as we watched our kids play.It was what came next that challenged me: Lydia asked if I'd be willing to help her with her English. Now, I am not a teacher. I admire teachers, and I'm grateful for teachers, and it's because I admire what they do so much that I was very very sure that I couldn't do it myself.But Lydia was sure that she wanted my help. I was doubtful. I wasn't sure my "help" was even worth being called by that name. But because she asked me, I said "yes." And that was the beginning of a friendship. Lydia and I spent afternoons sitting together and reading the newspaper, and as we did, she asked me questions when she had them questions about language, yes, but also questions about the new culture she found herself in. In turn, I asked my own questions, growing curious about her home country and culture. We bonded over our shared faith and our struggles as mothers of kids with special needs, When I complimented(恭维) her cooking, she began to teach me about Korean food, eventually leading to a shared trip to explore the Korean grocery stores in our city. Because of Lydia, 1 learned more about my own hometown than I ever could have learned by myself. I'm still not sure that I'm any good as a teacher. But I'm grateful I said "yes" when my neighbor asked me to help her with her English. That meant spending extra time with my neighbor, and that extra time meant she didn't remain just my neighbor. She became my friend.(1)What was Lydia sorry about?A. Her bad English.B. Her carelessness.C. Nobody teaching her English.D. Her poor life in a new place.(2)What can be concluded from the third paragraph?A. The author admired teachers.B. The author wanted to be a teacher.C. The author didn't want to help Lydia.D.

Truman's class had studied bees for three days,so he was ready.But,as his teacher Mrs. Lawrence had explained,to earn an A+,he needed a “new angle”.Truman pushed open the front door to find his four-year-old brother, Bryan, sitting on the living room rag, hard at work.Paper towel tubes were all over the floor.Bryan quickly stood up.“Truman,help me build a city!”“I'd like to,”Truman replied, “but I have to do a report on beehives and...”“Can I help you?”Bryan begged.“I don't think so,Bry.Sorry.''“I know where there's a beehive.”Bryan smiled.“Where?”“In the wood pile by the garage.''The boys marched to the firewood.Bending down, Bryan pointed out the hive deep inside the pile. Truman carefully removed the hive out.“You got it!” Bryan shouted.Back in the living room,Truman paced around, turning the fragile hive under his nose.Each cell was a perfect hexagon(六边形).How did the bees fit the cells together so neatly? And how did they make each cell six-sided?Could they count?Lost in thought,his foot came down on something...“Truman!You're mining my city!”“Get your stupid tubes out of here,Bryan! I'm trying to…”The towel tubes on the floor suddenly reminded him of something. The beehive!Looking closer, he noticed the tubes were arranged with one in the middle,surrounded by six others, just like the cells of the hive.Just to be sure, he tried five and then seven tubes surrounding the center tubes,but neither way fit.Six was the only number that worked.“Bees don't count to six,”he said aloud.“The cells have to be six-sided.Truman ran to Bryan and threw his arms around his brother.Bryan,you did it!Now I can build a model beehive with your tubes!I mean—if it's O.K.with you.”(1)Where did Truman find the beehive?A.In Bryan's city.B.Inside the garage.C.In the living room.D.

高一英语阅读理解试题(有答案和解析)及解析一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解Nothing good generally comes of a conversation that start with the words, "I think you should probably sit down before I tell you this.”And so it came to pass. Away for Christmas, we got a call from kind friends at home, our neighbour's house had caught fire while they were out. The fire didn't spread to our house but the smoke very much did.It's weeks of either throwing out, or sending away for specialist cleaning, every single thing into which smoke could have permeated(渗透)because the particles(微粒) are an ongoing health risk and washing isn't enough. Anything soft—sofas and carpets and children's teddy bears, clothes—is suspected. We will be seeing in the New Year in a decidedly minimalist fashion.What I didn't expect to feel, however, is this lucky. Friends and neighbours have come together with incredible generosity. We will never again underestimate the closeness of the village community in which we live, or the innate kindness that is most people's natural reaction to trouble, and are grateful to be reminded of so much that is good. But that's not the only thing I've learned. For in a sense, we have a chance to start again.The surprise on being forced to think about what might urgently need replacing is how short the list of essentials seems; how much we must have been hanging on to out of habit, and how much we have been conditioned to think was important.It's all too easily assumed that family history lives in tangible(有形的)things— old photographs, a dress bought decades ago for a night heavy with memories — but that's not quite right. These things were only reminders of what we already carry with us in head and heart.Walking through the house, sweeping up the broken glass, I realised that the answer to the old question of "What would you save in a fire? " is actually that nothing really matters but each other.(1)What happened to the author's house?A.It caught a fire.B.It was affected by a fire.C.It was broken into by friends.D.Its windows were broken.(2)What does the underlined word "suspected" in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.something that may be damaged.B.something that may not be genuine.C.something that may not be so good.D.something that may be dangerous.(3)What did the author expect to feel?A.People around him were cold to others' trouble.B.His friends and neighbours were so generous.C.People in his community were close to each other.D.He was so lucky to find much that was good.(4)How will the author probably feel when the New Year finally comes?A.Worried.B.Surprised.C.Excited.D.Contented.【答案】(1)B(2)A(3)A(4)D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,作者家房子受到火灾影响,物品受损,一切都需要清理,但朋友们和邻居们提供的帮助,让作者感受到了他们的善良,对他们感恩。
作者感受到拥有彼此才是最重要的。
(1)考查细节理解。
根据第二段中的“our neighbour's house had caught fire while they were out. The fire didn't spread to our house but the smoke very much did.”;第三段中的“every single thing into which smoke could have permeated”可知邻居家在外出时着火了,虽然火没有蔓延到作者家,但烟殃及了房子,作者家的房子受到了影响。
故选B。
(2)考查词义猜测。
根据第三段中的“every single thing into which smoke could have permeated(渗透)because the particles(微粒) are an ongoing health risk and washing isn't enough.”可知每件被烟雾渗透的物品都要专门清洗或扔掉,因为那些微粒威胁健康,有的仅清洗是不行的。
此句涉及的那些柔软的东西被认为可能是被污染损害的东西,suspected 指的就是这些东西。
故选A。
(3)考查推理判断。
根据第四段中的“What I didn't expect to feel, however, is this lucky.”作者没想到的是自己家很幸运,下文提到朋友们和邻居们都提供了帮助,作者从中感受到了他们的善良。
由此推知作者原来认为的是人们会对别人家的困难很冷漠,故选A。
(4)考查推理判断。
根据第三段中的“We will be seeing in the New Year in a decidedly minimalist fashion.”可知作者家房子受到火灾影响,物品受损,一切都需要清理,作者认为即将到来的新年肯定是简约的。
但朋友们和邻居们提供的帮助,让作者感受到了他们的善良,对他们感恩;再根据最后一段中的“I realised that the answer to the old question of ‘What would you save in a f ire? ’ is actually that nothing really matters but each other.”作者感受到拥有彼此才是最重要的。
这些说明作者是满足的,故选D。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解,词义猜测和推理判断三个题型的考查,是一篇故事类阅读,考生需要准确掌握细节信息,同时根据上下文的逻辑关系,进行分析,推理,从而选出正确答案。
2.阅读理解Some of the best research on daily experience is rooted in rates of positive and negative interactions, which has proved that being blindly positive or negative can cause others to be frustrated or annoyed or to simply tune out.Over the last two decades, scientists have made remarkable predictions simply by watching people interact with one another and then scoring the conversations based on the rate ofpositive and negative interactions. Researchers have used the findings to predict everything from the likelihood that a couple will divorce to the chances of a work team with high customer satisfaction and productivity levels.More recent research helps explain why these brief exchanges matter so much. When you experience negative emotions as a result of criticism or rejection, for example, your body produces higher levels of the stress hormone, which shuts down much of your thinking and activates (激活) conflict and defense mechanisms (机制). You assume that situations are worse than they actually are.When you experience a positive interaction, it activates a very different response. Positive exchanges increase your body's production of oxytocin, a feel-good that increases your ability to communicate with, cooperate with and trust others. But the effects of a positive occurrence are less dramatic and lasting than they are for a negative one.We need at least three to five positive interactions to outweigh every one negative exchange. Bad moments simply outweigh good ones. Whether you're having a conversation, keep this simple short cut in mind: At least 80 percent of your conversations should be focused on what's going right.Workplaces, for example, often see this. During performance reviews, managers routinely spend 80 percent of their time on weaknesses and “areas for improvement”. They spend roughly 20 percent of the time on strengths and positive aspects. Any time you have discussions with a person or group, spend the vast majority of the time talking about what is working, and use the remaining time to address weaknesses.(1)The underlined phrase “tune out” in Paragraph 1 probably meansA. stop listeningB. change one's mindC. sing aloudD. be crazy(2)What will happen if you experience negative emotions?A. The situations are sure to become worse.B. Much of your thinking will be prevented.C. You will feel an urge to improve and become better.D. You'll be motivated to resolve conflicts with people.(3)From Paragraph 4, we can learn thatA. we need a positive feeling to beat one negative feelingB. positive interactions have greater effects than negative onesC. our conversation should center on what needs improvementD. the effect of negative feelings lasts longer than that of positive ones(4)What is the best title for the passage?A. Harmful NegativesB. More Positive InteractionsC. How to Be a Productive ManagerD. Less Time on Strengths and Positive Aspects 【答案】(1)A(2)B(3)D(4)B【解析】【分析】本文是说明文。
