一、英语阅读理解专项练习试卷
1．根据短文内容，判断正误。

I was 15 months old, a happy and carefree kid, until the day I fell. It was a bad fall. I landed on a piece of glass that cut my eye badly. From then on, my injured, sightless, cloudy gray eye lived on with me.
Sometimes people asked me embarrassing (使人难堪的) questions. Whenever kids played games, I was the "monster". I was always imagining that everyone looked down on(瞧不起) me. Yet mum would say to me, "Hold your head up high and face the world." I began to depend on that saying. As a child, I thought mum meant, "Be careful，or you will fall down or bump into something because you are not looking. "As a teenager, I usually looked down to hide my shame. But I found that when I held my head up high, people liked me.
In high school, I even became the class president, but inside I still felt like a monster. All I really wanted was to look like everyone else. When things got really bad, I would cry to my mum and she would look at me with loving eyes and say," Hold your head up high and face the world. Let them see the beauty that is inside instead of your appearance(外貌) ."
My mum's love was the sunshine that made me bright. I had faced hard times, and learned not only to be confident(自信的) but also to have deep compassion(同情) for others. "Hold your head up high "has been heard many times in my home. I say it to my children. The gift my mum gave me will live on.

Many years ago, I was a very shy girl at my school. I couldn't forget the way I had frozen in front of the class. My hands had shaken so badly that I couldn't read my notes. My voice had become softer even to silence. Mr. Roberts had kindly stopped me, “Masha, I know you're shy, but you worked hard on this project. If I give you another chance tomorrow, can you find your courage?
I had nodded. I had kept my head down, hoping that the school day would end soon. When I got home that day, I could see an inviting light from the kitchen windows. Momma was backing. When Momma backed, I always watched and chatted with her. She said it was my company that made her baked goods taste so sweet.
Momma studied my face as I came into the kitchen. “What's wrong, Masha?” Tears shone in my eyes. I let the whole story out. Momma was silent for a moment. Then she said, “Let me show you something.”I followed Momma to her bedroom and carefully took out a blue ribbon tha t said “First Place” from it.
“I started the school year as the shyest girl on the speech team, but I ended the year as the blue ribbon winner. I won it for public speaking. It wasn't easy—I was not sure of myself at all. I worked hard, and mostly I f aced my fears. You just need to find your courage.”
That was the second time someone had told me that. I followed Momma back to the kitchen. What was it that made me so afraid? Soon Momma's sweet cake rose in the pans, and the smell of it comforted me as I wondered where I would find my courage. Momma put a thick piece in front of me. “ There's nothing better for heartache than Momma's love baked in a cake.”
I raised a forkful of warm cake to my mouth. All the fear in the world could not take away
Momma's love. I felt safe in Momma's kitchen. It was warm from the bottom of the heart.
The next day I walked to the front of the classroom to give my presentation again. As I faced the class, I remember the ribbon and the smell of Momma's kitchen and then took a deep breath and began to speak with confidence. Finally I succeeded.
（1）Why was Masha unhappy that day?
A. She was not good with her classmates.
B. Her teacher criticized her.
C. She didn't perform well in front of the class.
D. She failed in an exam.
（2）How many times had people told Masha she need find courage?

【解析】【分析】这篇文章主要讲述了一个害羞的小女孩在一个报告会上很紧张，表现得很不好，在妈妈的帮助和鼓舞下被母爱感受，最终找到了面对困难的勇气，在第二次挑战中取得了成功。

（1）C 推断题。

由I couldn't forget the way I had frozen in front of the class. My hands had shaken so badly that I couldn't read my notes. My voice had become softer even to silence.可知她在报告会中及其紧张，像被冻住了一样，双手颤抖甚至说不出话。

显而易见，她在报告会上表现得不好。

由I had kept my head down, hoping that the school day would end soon. Tears shone in my eyes. I let the whole story out.她低着头，希望这一天赶紧过去，回家后还哭了告诉了妈妈整件事。

由此可见她是因为在课堂上表现不好而不开心。

故选C。

（2）B 细节理解题。

由第一段老师说的can you find your courage和第四段妈妈说的You just need to find your courage.可以看出共有两次。

由第四段That was the second time someone had told me that. 也可以看出共有两次。

故选B。

（3）D推断题。

由There's nothing better for heartache than Momma's love baked in a cake. All the fear in the world could not take away Momma's love.可知她认为治疗心病最有效的是蛋糕背后蕴含着的母爱，母爱能够战胜所以恐惧。

所以很明显帮助她找到勇气的是母爱而不是蛋糕或者其他东西，故选D。

（4）B 主旨大意题。

文章多次提到了勇气第一段can you find your courage？第四段You just need to find your courage.the smell of it comforted me as I wondered where I would find my courage由此可见，找到勇气是文章的一条主线，引出了妈妈，是母爱让她找到了勇气，升华了主题。

用其他题目都不能很好地概括文章，没有画龙点睛的效果，故选B。

【点评】这是一篇记叙文，同时里面也有作者的一些观点。

文章以一个害羞的小女孩找到了勇气为为线索，证明了母爱的伟大，升华了主题。

做题时应该兼顾全文，从全文中推断出答案，而不能只看一句话，要通观全文。

主旨大意题要能够看到作者要表达的内在意思，不能只看到文章的字面意思。

7．根据短文内容选择正确答案。

C
Grace, usually known as the Home of Microsoft, is inside an office building in Redmond, Washington. Once you come into the building, you will feel that you're in a modern and future home.
When you enter the building, Grace's voice, coming from a hidden speaker, tells you your messages. In the kitchen, you set a bag of flour(面粉) on a flat stone table. Grace sees what you're doing and makes a menu of flour-based foods on the table. Once you choose one, Grace gives you ingredients(配料).
There's also a notice board in the kitchen made of “intelligent(智能的) cloth” that works like a touch screen computer. You can deal with postcards and invitations and surf the net with the touch of a finger. The invitations could be encoded(编码). You can deal with them on the computer. It's part of Microsoft's Smart Personal Objects Technology, whose aim is to make every object more efficient(有效率的).
“The day when your house becomes a member of your family is not far,” says Pam Heath, a manager of Microsoft. At the Andersen Windows Company, Jay Libby imagines that windows made of intelligent glass can be changed into TVs.
“Nobody wants a television set,” says Libby. “What you want is the service it provides.” If the TV isn't improved, it will disappear in the future.
Home entertainment is one consideration for the future. At the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, scientists are designing systems that will allow old people to live better on their own. So Grandma's home can be cleverly designed to recognize(识别) her ways of waking, sleeping and movement. Family members will be told any change by their computers.

在未来智能家庭还会提供更多更便利的科技，计算机正改变着我们的生活。

（1）推理判断。

根据第一段的描述和第二段tells you your messages告诉你信息； makes a menu of flour-based foods on the table制定面食菜单； gives you ingredients给你配料等，可知Grace应该是一台家庭智能机器，它会看懂你做的事情，并提供必要的帮助，故选C。

（2）推理判断。

根据第二段在厨房的活动可知A是对的；根据第二段that works like a touch screen computer和You can deal with them on the computer可知B是对的；根据第三段 windows made of intelligent glass can be changed into TVs用智能玻璃做成的Windows可以变成电视，并没有要取代电视的意思，故C是错误的；根据第四段If the TV isn’t improved, it will disappear in the future可知如果电视没有改进，它在将来会消失，故D也是对的。

因此选C。

（3）推理判断。

根据最后一段Home entertainment is one consideration for the future和scientists are designing systems that will allow old people to live better on their own可知科学家们正努力使未来的建筑智能化。

故选A。

9．阅读理解
Do you have many passwords for your credit cards(信用卡) or different websites? Do you try to remember them all? As we are advised to have the passwords memorized by heart for safety reasons, not written down, lots of people find it hard to keep them in mind.
However, this problem has been solved by a microchip (芯片) company. The scientists there designed a very small microchip with an electronic circuit(线路). It can identify(识别) you. By putting the microchip under the skin of your hand, you can have access to(有权进人) things with no need for passwords or cards. In this case, it means that you don't have to remember any passwords.
Office workers in Stockholm, Sweden were offered the chance to have the microchip put under their skin if they wish. It allowed them to get in and out of their workplaces and log into(登录) their computers without keys, Besides, they could also use the new technology to pay for the food in the cafe. But some of the workers thought it was a risky idea to have a microchip put under their skin. They considered that the microchip might cause health problems one day.
Anyway, this new technology is fun. With the rapid development of technology, we seem to be on our way to being part human, part machine, don't we?
