Don’t you think there’s something to learn from the tortoise?”Sonny opene d his eyes wide, “Do you mean next time when I’m entering for the 60-metre race I should wish that Billy, Tony and Sandy would all fall asleep halfway?”I was shocked, “But the tortoise didn’t wish that the hare would fall asleep!”“He must have wished that,” Sonny said, “Otherwise how could he be so foolish as to race with the hare? He knew very well the hare ran a hundred times faster than he himself did.”“He didn’t have such a wish,” I insisted. “He won the race by perseverance (坚忍不拔的), by pushing on st eadily.”Sonny thought a while. “That’s a lie,” he said. “He won it because he was lucky. If the hare hadn’t happened to fall asleep, the tortoise would never have won the race. He could be as steady as you like, or a hundred times steadier, but he’d never have won the race.

高一英语百日训练之阅读理解(78)含答案详解

高一英语百日训练之阅读理解（78）含答案详解【题文】America’s businesses are getting older and fatter, while many new businesses are dying in infancy.A study last month by the Brookings Institution found that the proportion of older firms has grown steadily over several decades, while the survival rate of new companies has fallen. In addition, young people are starting companies at a sharply lower rate than in the past.A new report from the National Association of Manufacturers shows a major cause: The cost of obeying government regulations has risen to more than $2 trillion (12.26 trillion yuan) annually, or 12 percent of the GDP, and this cost falls disproportionately on smaller, newer businesses.It’s risky, difficult and expensive to start a business, and getting more so. G overnments are imposing various new rules on a seemingly daily basis: health insurance, minimum wage increases and, most recently in California, compulsory paid sick days for even hourly employees. These regulations shift huge social welfare costs directly onto often-struggling small businesses, while being proportionally much less costly for larger companies.This is partly an unintended issue of resources---established companies can cope with new costs more easily---but it’s also deliberate. For instance, big insurance companies got a seat at the table to help write Obama care, but less politically powerful firms---like medical device manufacturers---got squeezed.Mature, successful corporations can employ ex-lawmakers with connections, distribute campaign contributions and even write regulations for themselves. They are also more likely to want to protect steady revenue streams than revolutionize their industry.Major companies that have been so ill-managed they would otherwise collapse---airlines, car companies and banks---stagger(蹒跚)on because politicians ride to the rescue with bags of taxpayer money.The genius of our unique system of government is the determination to protect and defend the rights of the individual over the rights of the nation. As such, the rise of a well-connected oligarchy(寡头政治)that protects big business at the expense of small business, and the established over the new, is opposite to American ideals.Income inequality—which is directly caused by faulty government policy---is being promoted as the reason to impose more of that bad policy. But let’s be perfectly clear, we do not have a free market but one where government picks winners and losers through regulations and financial aids.Politics is, and always has been, about balancing competing interests seeking to benefit themselves, and that’s as it should be, but the force of government should never be used to reduce competition, kill innovation or support and extend artificial monopolies(垄断)by harming the consumer, the taxpayer and the economy. Policy must breed our new and small businesses or see the as-yet undreamed of innovations that could be our bright future die in infancy.43. We can learn from the passage that___________.A. over several decades, new companies have grown steadily.B. mature, successful corporations prefer to maintain their stable incomes.C. less politically powerful firms also have their voice in making regulations.D. The cost of obeying government regulations falls equally on all businesses.44. We can infer from the last three paragraphs that__________.A. the state economy may depend on those innovative businesses.B. the rise of a well-connected oligarchy is contrary to American ideals.C. income inequality is what the government should take action to resolve.D. the government picks winners and losers through the law of free market.45. It can be concluded from the passage that___________.A. big insurance companies have better relationship with Obama.B. most of the ex-lawmakers work in mature, successful corporations.C. larger and older firms have a command of resources of various aspects.D. politicians like providing financial aids to the companies of worse operation.46. As to the development of smaller businesses, the writer is___________.A. contented.B. confident.C. convinced.D. concerned.【答案】43. B 44. A 45. C 46. D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了美国的创业难题。

高一英语百日训练之阅读理解(16)含答案详解

高一英语百日训练之阅读理解（16）含答案详解【题文】The world’s top automakers are increasingly offering more electric vehicle models. This growth is expected to continue，with more people choosing to hit the road with clean-running electric- powered cars.Environmentalists have praised the automakers for taking major steps to limit harmful pollutants linked to worldwide climate change. But electric vehicles are also known for not producing another kind of pollution—noise. They run on batteries instead of fuel，and can operate in silence.While many people might consider this a good thing，quiet cars can also cause problems. The main danger is that people walking in areas around electric vehicles face a greater risk of being hit if they cannot hear the cars coming.Governments in the United States and Europe have recognized this problem. So，they have set requirements for manufacturers to add warning sounds to vehicles operating on electricity.The U.S.Department of Transportation finalized its rules a year ago. The rules require electric and hybrid (混合能源) vehicles to be equipped with some kind of warning sound when moving at speeds up to 30 kilometers per hour. The rules are aimed at preventing injuries among people walking or riding bicycles and to protect the blind.So what kinds of sounds can we expect to hear from the next generation of electric vehicles? One of the easiest solutions would be for carmakers to simply reproduce the sound a car would make if it actually did run on fuel. But many industry officials believe this wou ld be a mistake.They say this would not support the electric vehicle’s true identity. It would also limit great possibilities to link the car’s sound to a whole new image, which could help increase sales.Frank Welsch is head of technical development at Ge rmany’s V olkswagen. He said that finding the perfect sound mix is not an easy process. “The electric vehicle sound is its identity,” he said. “It cannot be too annoying. It cannot sound li ke anything we had in the past.”An official from Mercedes-Benz said the sound was designed to provide a safe warning without annoying passengers inside the vehicle. He said the goal was to create a car that remains completely quiet on the inside, but fills the sound requirements and supports the model’s image on the outsi de.It might seem strange to think that part of our automotive future is currently being developed in the same kinds of recording studios used by musicians. But that is exactly what is happening.33. The underlined words “hit the road” in Paragraph 1 proba bly mean_________.A. clean a roadB. start a tripC. avoid an accidentD. reduce noise pollution34. The first two paragraphs are mainly intended to_________.A. introduce the topic of the passageB. list the advantages of automobilesC. provide some facts about electric carsD. stress the importance of saving energy35. Sounds are added to electric cars to_________.A. limit pollutantsB. increase salesC. prevent injuriesD. make cars smarter36. What would be the best title for the passage?A.

高一英语百日训练之阅读理解(18)含答案详解

高一英语百日训练之阅读理解（18）含答案详解【题文】Philosophers from Aristotle to the Beatles have argued that money does not buy happiness. But it seems to help. Since 2005，Gallup, a pollster (民意调查) has asked a representative sample of adults from countries across the world to rate their life satisfaction on a scale from zero to ten. The headline result is clear : the richer the country, on average, the higher the level of self-reported happiness. The simple correlation (相关性) suggests that doubling GDP per person lifts life satisfaction by about 0.7 points.Yet the prediction that as a country gets richer, its mood will improve has an unclear record. In 1974 Richard Easterlin, an economist, discovered that average life satisfaction in America had failed to develop between 1946 and 1970 even as GDP per person had grown by 65% over the same period. He went on to find a similar disconnection in other places, too. Although income is correlated with happiness when looking across countries—and although economic downturns are reliable sources of short-term suffering—long-term GDP growth does not seem to be enough to turn the average frown (皱眉) upside-down.The “Easterlin paradox (悖论)” has been hotly debated since, with some economists claiming to find a link between growth and rising happiness by using better quality data. On March 20th the latest Gallup data were presented in the World Happiness Report, an annual UN-backed study. The new data provide some evidence for both sides of the debate, but on the whole, suggest that the paradox is alive and well.There are important examples of national income and happiness rising and falling together. The most significant—in terms of population—is China, where GDP per person has doubled over a decade, while average happiness has risen by 0.43 points. Among rich countries, Germany enjoys higher incomes and greater cheer than ten years ago. Venezuela, once the fifth-happiest country in the world, has become miserable as its economy has collapsed. Looking across countries, growth is correlated with rising happiness.Yet that correlation is very weak. Of the 125 countries for which good data exist, 43 have seen GDP per person and happiness move in opposite directions. Like China, India is a populous developing economy that is growing quickly. But hap piness is down by about 1.2 points in the past decade. America, the subject of Easterlin’s first study, has again seen happiness fall as the economy has grown. In total, the world’s population looks roughly equally divided between places where happiness and incomes have moved in the same direction over the past ten years, and places where they have separated.68. What can we learn from Paragraph 2?A. Economic downturns do not cause people’s unhappiness.B. Economic growth increased average life satisfaction in America.C. Long-term GDP growth does not necessarily make people happy.D. The correlation between people’s mood and income can be predicted.69. Which of the following countries has both a better economy and happier people?A. India.B. America.C. Venezuela.D. China.70. The passage is mainly developed by__________.A. giving explanationsB. presenting research dataC. giving definitionD. listing examples71. Which of the following does the writer probably agree with?A. The relationship between economic growth and rising happiness is uncertain.B. Countries with similar population tend to have more things in common.C. Half of the world enjoys growth when economy and mood are positive.D. National income and happiness will always rise and fall regularly.【答案】68. C 69. D 70. B 71. A【解析】【分析】这是一篇议论文。

江苏高考英语百日训练之任务型阅读(17)含答案解析

江苏高考英语百日训练之任务型阅读（17）含答案解析【题文】Time management refers to managing time effectively so that the right time is allocated to the right activity. Time management is essential in every field of life because time is the precious resource one needs to accomplish a task. Every single moment that passes once will never come back again. Time management helps you do your task in time and use your time more productively. It helps you to identify the useless activities which can be avoided and how time can be saved. It helps you allocate proper time for a task and perform the task more efficiently.A student’s daily routine is filled with a lot of activities. Some are related to his studies, some are essential for his lif e and some are for entertainment or physical fitness. Still some activities have no use and just waste time. Similarly if the number of the activities for entertainment exceeds what is reasonable, they waste the time of a student. These activities include using the internet for chatting, playing games, watching movies or listening to music for hours on end. Such activities are called “distracters” which distract one from one’s real purpose.Games and physical exercise are important for a student because they keep him fit in body and mind but game time should be controlled as it may waste his time.No one wastes time intentionally. Time is always wasted in an insensible way. That’s why a student is aware of it until the days of exams come. So it is better to use the present time more effectively than cry o ver what you’ve done in the future.As for a student, time management compromises (包括) various steps. It is not only necessary to allocate time for different subjects but also to identify right time for each such subject. What’s more, to identify the distr acters which become causes of wastage of time is of significance as well.Take a pen and sheet. Write down all the activities you do in your daily routine. Calculate how much time you have for your studies other than other activities. Determine how much time a subject can take out of your total study time. See which subject need more time.Time management【答案】71. purpose72. preciousness/value/importance73. avoid 74. Suggestions/Tips/Advice/Ways75. useless/distracting76. control77. mentally78. past 79.

As she was getting invitations for her weddings in the mail one day last year, she hurriedly addressed one to her aunt and uncle in Oregon.A week later, the invitation came back, with a handwritten note on the return envelope: “I wish I knew you.

【英语】高一英语阅读理解专项训练100(附答案)及解析一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解Three boys were enjoying themselves in their hometown of Bovina, Mississippi .However, their lives were turned upside down when they discovered the jawbone of a Mastodon (齿乳象).Brothers Shawn and Caid Sellers and cousin Michael Mahalitc found the prehistoric bone in a piece of earth that was recently plowed (犁、耕)."I thought it was a log," Caid said. "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.

Great, or so I thought. At 4 a.m. and at several intervals after that, I was rudely awaken by the cock that lives opposite me. Fantastic! I now have 5 extra alarms every morning.In the following weeks, I also started to notice a trend. Things in my flat started to break at the rate of one object per day, like the hot water line, bowls, cups, shower, doors or glass shelves. Yes, I am clumsy but things just fell apart. If it wasn't broken, it would either be dirty or missing. Using my washing basket for the first time was pretty disgusting. When I took out my clothes, they were swiftly followed by a hundred or so bugs that were living in the bottom.As for the general Lack of equipment in the hose, there was no oven. tin opener, or sharp knives. It turns out making a vegetarian burger from scratch wasn't the best idea. I had a small microwave and a grill. I thought the general understanding was never to put metal in a microwave but I went on. Smoke soon started to appear. I'm not quite sure if it was the burger or the grill but as soon as I opened the door, the electricity cut out, I spent the fallowing 10 minutes in a dark, smoky room hunting for the power switch using the light from my mobile phone, which broke the week after and left me without a connection to the outer world.Luckily, I'm now borrowing a phone and my luck has returned. No more things have broken (probably because there is nothing left to break).

【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- i nterest,” 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。

Secret SantasOn Christmas morning, Linda wakes up, and tries to imagine the wide-eyed surprise of children in another household as they unwrap the presents she carefully chose for them. Linda has never met the children, but that’s all part of the joy of giving as secret Santas, she says."It's an amazing feeling to buy gifts on an anonymous (匿名的) basis," says Linda. "It brings a whole new meaning to the holidays."Linda and Tony are an American couple living in Toronto, Canada, and Linda did charitable work as a member of the American Women's Club of Toronto. As the name suggests, members are U.S. citizens living in Toronto, who join together for fellowship and community service.To find her "adopted" family, Linda goes to the local schools and requests a wish list for a family that's struggling to survive. Last year she helped a single mother with three children. The mother works as a cleaning lady in a nursing home."The list is always heartbreaking. They have an opportunity to ask for anything and do just the opposite, asking for basic clothes or simple toys," she says. "We always buy the kids a new winter coat, hats, and gloves." She also buys gifts for the parents.Last year Linda asked the mother for a second wish list--one that didn't include the basics. "Every child should have a Christmas that sticks with them for a lifetime." She purchased iPods for the two older children and a video game system for the youngest."I have learned a very valuable lesson in all of this," says Linda.

高一英语百日训练之阅读理解（15）含答案详解【题文】Enjoy the challenge of a new termThe new term is finally here, which means, of course, it's time to return to school.For many students across China, that also means having to leave home for the next several months and move into a school dormitory.Being away from our family for a long time, however, often leads to homesickness, a feeling that most students have experienced at some point.A study by the UK's National Union of Students found that up to 70 percent of UK students living away from home experience homesickness within their first few weeks of being away.But homesickness isn't just a feeling of sadness that happens in our mind; it can also affect us physically.“You feel homesickness in your stomach—it's an unease in which you feel uncomfortable, nervous, stressed because you're in a place or situation that's not familiar,” Joshua Klapow, a professor of public heath at the University of Alabama, us, told HuffPost.According to Klapow, the body reacts physically when it's placed in an unknown situation such as being separated from one's familiar surroundings for a long time.“It's an evolutionary(进化的) thing that makes us protect ourselves from danger when something is unknown," he told the HuffPost.“When we think about home, we know that the sense of unknown … is not happening there, so we want to return.”So, how can we overcome these physical reactions?Ruth Hardy of the Guardian offered advice for students who are feeling the effects of being away from the safety of home.“Try and establish routines(常规) quickly. This can make your new environment feel more stable and will hopefully make you feel more settled,” she wrote.Making friends with others who are in your situation is also a great way to feel less homesick, according to Hardy.The most important thing to remember, however, is that homesickness is completely normal and is nothing to be ashamed of.And once it's gone, you're free lo enjoy the adventures and challenges of a brand new school year.62. The study by the UK's National Union of Students is mentioned to .A. show how homesickness causes harm to studentsB. prove it's common for students to feel homesickC. introduce some causes of homesicknessD. show how all young people are troubled by homesickness63. What can we learn about homesickness?A. It's only a feeling in our mind.B. It usually disappears after a few weeks.C. It has a physical influence on our body.D. It always happens once we visit an unfamiliar place.64. According to Klapow, why is homesickness helpful to humans?A. It shows people the importance of their family.B. It drives people to get used to changes.C. It encourages people to express their feelings.D. It keeps people away from possible dangers.65. How does Hardy suggest people deal with homesickness?A. Take part in as many activities as possible.B. Talk about your problems with your friends.C. Get into a routine as early as possible.D. Avoid seeing things related to your home life.【答案】62. B 63.
