英语六级阅读理解模拟练习附答案

英语六级阅读理解模拟练习附答案六级阅读理解模拟练习一：Which is safer-staying at home， traveling towork on public transport，or working in the office?Surprisingly， each of these carries the same risk，which is very low. However， what about flyingcompared to working in the chemical industry?Unfortunately， the former is 65 times riskier thanthe latter! In fact， the accident rate of workers inthe chemical industry is less than that of almost anyof human activity， and almost as safe as staying at home.The trouble with the chemical industry is that when things go wrong they often cause deathto those living nearby. It is this which makes chemical accidents so newsworthy. Fortunately，they are extremely rare. The most famous ones happened at Texas City (1947)，Flixborough(1974)，Seveso (1976)， Pemex (1984) and Bhopal (1984)。

Some of these are always in the minds of the people even though the loss of life was small.No one died at Seveso， and only 28 workers at Flixborough. The worst accident of all wasBhopal， where up to 3，000 were killed. The Texas City explosion of fertilizer killed 552. ThePemex fire at a storage plant for natural gas in the suburbs of Mexico City took 542 lives， justa month before the unfortunate event at Bhopal.Some experts have discussed these accidents and used each accident to illustrate aparticular danger. Thus the Texas City explosion was caused by tons of ammonium nitrate(硝酸铵)，which is safe unless stored in great quantity. The Flixborough fireball was the fault ofmanagement， which tookrisks to keep production going during essential repairs. The Sevesoaccident shows what happens if the local authorities lack knowledge of the danger on theirdoorstep. When the poisonous gas drifted over the town， local leaders were incapable oftaking effective action. The Pemex fire was made worse by an overloaded site in anovercrowded suburb. The fire set off a chain reaction os exploding storage tanks. Yet， by amiracle， the two largest tanks did not explode. Had these caught fire，then 3，000 strongrescue team and fire fighters would all have died.1.Which of the following statements is true?A.Working at the office is safer than staying at home.B.Traverlling to work on public transport is safer than working at the office.C.Staying at home is safer than working in the chemical industry.D.Working in the chemical industry is safer than traveling by air.2.Chemical accidents are usually important enough to be reported as news because ____.A.they are very rareB.they often cause loss of lifeC.they always occur in big citiesD.they arouse the interest of all the readers3.According to passage， the chemical accident that caused by the fault of managementhappened at ____.A.Texas cityB.FlixboroughC.SevesoD.Mexico City4.From the passage we know that ammonium nitrate is a kind of ____.A.natural gas， which can easily catch fireB.fertilizer， which cant be stored in a great quantityC.poisonous substance， which cant be used in overcrowded areasD.fuel， which is stored in large tanks5.From the discussion among some experts we may coclude that ____.A.to avoid any accidents we should not repair the facilities in chemical industryB.the local authorities should not be concerned with the production of the chemicalindustryC.all these accidents could have been avoided or controlled if effective measure hadbeen takenD.natural gas stored in very large tanks is always safe参考答案：DBABC六级阅读理解模拟练习二：40 years ago the idea of disabled people doingsport was never heard of. But when the annualgames for the disabled were started atStokeMandeville, England in 1948 by Sir LudwigGuttmann, the situation began to change.Sir Ludwig Guttmann, who had been driven toEngland in 1939 from Nazi Germany, had been askedby the British government to set up an injuriescenter at Stoke Mandeville Hospital near London. His ideas about treating injuries includedsport for the disabled.In the first games just two teams of injured soldiers took part. The next year, 1949, fiveteams took part. From those beginnings, things have developed fast. Teams now come fromabroad to Stoke Mandeville every year. In 1960 the first Olympics for the Disabled were held inRome, in the same place as the normal Olympic Games. Now, every four years the OlympicGames for the Disabled are held, if possible, in the same place as the normal Olympic Games,although they are organized separately. In other years Games for the Disabled are still held atStoke Mandeville. In the 1984 wheelchair Olympic Games, 1064 wheelchair athletes from about40 countries took part. Unfortunately, they were held at Stoke Mandeville and not in LosAngeles, along with the other Olympics.The Games have been a great success in promoting international friendship andunderstanding, and in proving that being disabled does not mean you cant enjoy sport. Onesmall source of disappointment for those who organize and take part in the games,however, has been the unwillingness of the International Olympic Committee to includedisabled events at Olympic Games for the able-bodied. Perhaps a few more years are stillneeded to convince those fortunate enough not to be disabled that their disabled fellowathletes should not be excluded.21. The first games for the disabled were held______after Sir Ludwig Guttmann arrived inEngland.A. 40 yearsB. 21 yearsC. 10 yearsD. 9 years22. Besides Stoke Mandeville, surely the games for the disabled were once held in______.A. New YorkB. LondonC. RomeD. Los Angeles23. In Paragraph 3, the word "athletes" means______.A. people who support the gamesB. people who watch the gamesC. people who organize the gamesD. people who compete in the games24. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Sir Ludwig Guttmann is an early organizer of the games for the disabled.B. Sir Ludwig Guttmann is an injured soldier.C. Sir Ludwig Guttmann is from Germany.D. Sir Ludwig Guttmann is welcomed by the British government.25. From the passage, we may conclude that the writer is ______.A. one of the organizers of the game for the disabledB. a disabled person who once took part in the gamesC. against holding the games for the disabledD. in favor of holding the games for the disabled 参考答案：21.

英语阅读理解模拟试题及答案(四)

英语阅读理解模拟试题及答案(四)Passage 16Tea drinking was common in China for nearly one thousand years before anyone in Europe had ever heard about tea. People in Britain were much slower in finding out what tea was like, mainly because tea was very expensive. It could not be bought in shops and even those people who could afford to have it sent from Holland did so only because it was a fashionable curiosity. Some of them were not sure how to use it. They thought it was a vegetable and tried cooking the leaves. Then they served them mixed with butter and salt. They soon discovered their mistake but many people used to spread the used tea leaves on bread and give them to their children as sandwiches.Tea remained scarce and very expensive in England until the ships of the East India Company began to bring it direct from China early in the seventeenth century. During the next few years so much tea came into the country that the price fell and many people could afford to buy it.At the same time people on the Continent were becoming more and more fond of tea. Until then tea had been drunk without milk in it, but one day a famous French lady named Madame de Sevigne decided to see what tea tasted like when milk was added. She found it so pleasant that she would never again drink it without milk. Because she was such a great lady her friends thought they must copy everything she did, so they also drank their tea with milk in it. Slowly this habit spread until it reached England and today only very few Britons drink tea without milk.At first, tea was usually drunk after dinner in the evening No one ever thought of drinking tea in the afternoon until a duchess （公爵夫人） found that a cup of tea and a piece of cake at three or four o'clock stopped her gettinga sinking feelingas she called it. She invited her friends to have this new meal with her and so, tea-time was born.76. Which of the following is true of the introduction of tea into Britain？A）The Britons got expensive tea from India.B）Tea reached Britain from Holland.C）The Britons were the first people in Europe who drank tea.D）It was not until the 17th century that the Britons had tea.77.

英语专八阅读理解模拟试题附带翻译及解析

英语专八阅读理解模拟试题(附带翻译及解析)考研英语阅读理解模拟试题及解析一The majority of successful senior managers do not closely follow the classical rational model of first clarifying goals, assessing the problem, formulating options, estimating likelihoods of success, making a decision, and only then taking action to implement the decision. Rather, in their day-by-day tactical maneuvers, these senior executives rely on what is vaguely termed intuition to manage a network of interrelated problems that require them to deal with ambiguity, inconsistency, novelty, and surprise；and to integrate action into the process of thinking.Generations of writers on management have recognized that some practicing managers rely heavily on intuition. In general, however, such writers display a poor grasp of what intuition is. Some see it as the opposite of rationality; others view it as an excuse for capriciousness.Isenberg's recent research on the cognitive processes of senior managers reveals that managers' intuition is neither of these. Rather, senior managers use intuition in at least five distinct ways. First, they intuitively sense when a problem exists. Second, managers rely on intuition to perform well-learned behavior patterns rapidly. This intuition is not arbitrary or irrational, but is based on years of painstaking practice and hands-on experience that build skills. A third function of intuition is to synthesize isolated bits of data and practice into an integrated picture, often in an Aha！experience. Fourth, some managers use intuition as a check on the results of more rational analysis. Most senior executives are familiar with the formal decision analysis models and tools, and those who use such systematic methods for reaching decisions are occasionally leery of solutions suggested by these methods which run counter to their sense of the correct course of action. Finally, managers can use intuition to bypass in-depth analysis and move rapidly to engender a plausible solution. Used in this way, intuition is an almost instantaneous cognitive process in which a manager recognizes familiar patterns.One of the implications of the intuitive style of executive management is that thinking is inseparable from acting. Since managers often know what is right before they can analyze and explain it, they frequently act first and explain later. Analysis is inextricably tied to action in thinking/acting cycles, in which managers develop thoughts about their companies and organizations not by analyzing a problematic situation and then acting, but by acting and analyzing in close concert.Given the great uncertainty of many of the management issues that they face, senior managers often instigate a course of action simply to learn more about an issue. They then use the results of the action to develop a more complete understanding of the issue. One implication of thinking/acting cycles is that action is often part of defining the problem, not just ofimplementing the solution.1. According to the text, senior managers use intuition in all of the following ways EXCEPT to[A] Speed up of the creation of a solution to a problem.[B] Identify a problem.[C] Bring together disparate facts.[D] Stipulate clear goals.2. The text suggests which of the following about the writers on management mentioned in line 1, paragraph 2？[A] They have criticized managers for not following the classical rational model of decision analysis.[B] They have not based their analyses on a sufficiently large sample of actual managers.[C] They have relied in drawing their conclusions on what managers say rather than on what managers do.[D] They have misunderstood how managers use intuition in making business decisions.3. It can be inferred from the text that which of the following would most probably be one major difference in behavior between Manager X, who uses intuition to reach decisions, and Manager Y, who uses only formal decision analysis？[A] Manager X analyzes first and then acts；Manager Y does not.[B] Manager X checks possible solutions to a problem by systematic analysis；Manager Y does not.[C] Manager X takes action in order to arrive at the solution to a problem；Manager Y does not.[D] Manager Y draws on years of hands-on experience in creating a solution to a problem；Manager X does not.4. The text provides support for which of the following statements？[A] Managers who rely on intuition are more successful than those who rely on formal decision analysis.[B] Managers cannot justify their intuitive decisions.[C] Managers'' intuition works contrary to their rational and analytical skills.[D] Intuition enables managers to employ their practical experience more efficiently.5. Which of the following best describes the organization of the first paragraph of the text？[A] An assertion is made and a specific supporting example is given.[B] A conventional model is dismissed and an alternative introduced.[C] The results of recent research are introduced and summarized.[D] Two opposing points of view are presented and evaluated.答案与考点解析1. 「答案」D「考点解析」这是一道归纳推导题。

大学英语四级阅读模拟题及答案(3篇)

大学英语四级阅读模拟题及答案阅读1空调的危害Although many of us may feel air-conditioners bring relief from hot,humid or polluted outside air,they pose many potential health hazards.Much research has looked at how the movement of air inside a closed environment---such as an office building---can spread disease or expose people in the building to harmful chemicals.One of the more widely publicized dangers is that of Legionnaire’s disease,which was first recognized inthe1970s.This was found to have affected people in buildings with air-conditioning systems in which warmair pumped out of the system’cooling towers was somehow sucked back into the air intake(通风口),in mostcases due to poor design.The warm air,filled with bacteria,was combined with cooled,conditioned air andwas then circulated around various parts of the building. Studies showed that even people outside such buildings were at risk if they walked past air exhaust pipes.Large air-conditioning systems add water to the air they circulate by means of humidifiers(湿度调节器).Inolder systems,the water used for this process is kept in special reservoirs,the bottoms of which providebreeding grounds for bacteria which can find their way into the ventilation (通风)system.The risk to human health from this situation has been highlighted by the fact that the immune systems(免疫系统)of approximately half of workers in air-conditioned office buildings have developed the ability to fight off the organisms found at the bottom of system reservoirs. But chemicals called“biocides”are added to reservoirs to make them germ-free,and they are dangerous in their own right in sufficient quantities,as they often contain compounds strongly linked to cancers.Finally,it should be pointed out that the artificial climatic environment created byair-conditioners canalso affect us.In a natural environment,whether indoor or outdoor,there are small variations in temperature and humidity.Indeed,the human body has long been accustomed to these normal changes.In an air-conditioned living or working environment,however,body temperatures remain well under37℃,our normal temperature.This leads to a weakened immune system and thus greater exposure to diseases such as colds and flu.练习题：Choose correct answers to the question:1.What do we know about Legionnaire's disease from the passage?A.It was the most widely concerned office hazard.B.It can affect people both inside and outside the building.C.It happens only in air-conditioned office buildings.D.It does not develop in well-designed buildings.2.In the old air-conditioned systems,bacteria first develop______.A.in the reservoirsB.in the ventilation systemc.in the humidifiersD.in the air intake3.The fact that about half of workers developed the ability to fight off the bacteria may__.A.relieve people’s worry about the danger caused by the bacteriaB.help people find an effective way to get rid of the bacteriaC.reflect the serious danger brought by the bacteriaD.cause serious disease such as cancers to people4.The author most probably wants the readers to treat biocides with an attitude of_.A.cautionB.trustC.enthusiasmD.criticism5.The last paragraph implies that our immune system can be weakened when_•A.we live in an artificial climatic environmentB.there are variations in temperature and humidityC.our body temperatures often remain not high enoughD.we are often exposed to diseases such as colds and flu答案解析：1.[B]事实细节题。

英语四级阅读理解模拟试题附答案

英语四级阅读理解模拟试题附答案英语四级阅读理解模拟试题：【原文】There are two factors which determine an individuals intelligence. The first is the sort of brain he is born with. Human brains differ considerably , some being more capable than others. But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with, an individual will have a low order of intelligence unless he has opportunities to learn. So the second factor is what happens to the individual— the sort of environment in which he is brought up. If an individual is handicapped(不利) environmentally, it is likely that his brain will fail to develop and he will never attain the level of intelligence of which he is capable.The importance of environment in determining an individuals intelligence can be demonstrated by the case history of the identical twins, Peter and Mark. Being identical, the twins had identical brains at birth, and their growth processes were the same. When the twins were three months old, their parents died, and they were placed in separate foster(抚养) homes. Peter was raised by parents of low intelligence in an isolated community with poor educational opportunities. Mark was reared in the home of well-to-do parents who had been to college. He was read to as a child, sent to good schools, and given every opportunity to be stimulated intellectually. This environmental difference continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they were given tests to measure their intelligence. Marks I. Q. was 125, twenty-five points higherthan the average and fully forty points higher than his identical brother. Given equal opportunities, the twins, having identical brains, would have tested at roughly the same level.英语四级阅读理解模拟试题：【题目】21. This selection can best be titled____________.A.

You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Acculturation, which begins at birth, is the process of teaching new generations of children the customs and values of the parents culture. How people treat newborns, for example, can be indicative of cultural values. In the United States it is not uncommon for parents to put a newborn in a separate room that belongs only to the child. This helps to preserve parents privacy and allows the child to get used to having his or her own room, which is seen as a first step toward personal independence. Americans traditionally have held independence and a closely related value, individualism, in high esteem. Parents try to instill theseprevailing values in their children. American English expresses these value preferences: children should cut the (umbilical) cord and are encouraged not to be tied to their mothers apron strings. In the process of their socialization children learn to look out for number one and to stand on their own two feet。

We often get the first impression of a people based on the color of a person’s skin or the manner in which he or she dressed. Meaning is conveyed not only by words or verbal languages but also by nonverbal communication systems, such as body behaviors. Nonverbal communication is important because we use the actions of others to learn about their affective emotional states .Our emotions are reflected in our posture, face, and eyes—be it fear, joy, anger, or sadness—so we can express them without ever saying a word .For this reason, most of us rely heavily on what we learn through our eyes. Nonverbal communication is significant in human interaction because it is usually responsible for the first impressions. More importantly, those first messages usually influence the perception(感知) of everything else that follows. Even how we select friends and sexual partners is grounded in first impressions with nonverbal communication. Nonverbal communication is important because it is culture-related. It is based on different beliefs, religions, values and customs in different cultures. When, where, how, and to whom people display his or her specific nonverbal behaviors is greatly affected by culture and context. Culture determines what the appropriate nonverbal behavior is. For example, feelings of friendship exist everywhere but their expression varies. It may be appropriate in some countries for man to embrace each other and for women to hold hands; in other countries these displays of affection may be shocking. Each culture has its own specific interpretation on nonverbal communication. What is acceptable in one culture may be completely unacceptable in another. One culture may determine that snapping fingers to call a waiter is acceptable; another may consider this gesture rude. 1. What is the best title of the passage? A.

(完整版)英语专业四级阅读理解模拟题英语专业四级阅读理解模拟题A simple piece of rope hangs between some environmentally friendly Americans and their neighbors. On one side stand those who have begun to see clothes dryers as wasteful consumers of energy （up to 6％ of total electricity） and powerful emitters of carbon dioxide （up to a ton of CO2 per household every year）。

As an alternative, they are turning to clotheslines as part of what Alexander Lee， an environmentalist, calls "what—I-can—do environmentalism.”But on the other side are people who oppose air-drying laundry outside on aesthetic grounds。

Increasingly, they have persuaded community and homeowners associations(HOAs） across the U.S。

to ban outdoor clotheslines, which they say not only look unsightly but also lower surrounding property values. Those actions， in turn， have sparked a right—to-dry movement that is pressing for legislation to protect the choice to use clotheslines。

阅读理解模拟练习题（二）Unit 4Passage OneThe human body has developed its millions of nerves to be highly aware of what goes on both inside and outside of it. This helps us adjust to the outside world. Without our nerves and our brain, which is a system of nerves, we couldn't know what's happening.But we pay for our sensitivity. We can feel pain when the slightest thing is wrong with any part of our body. （第1.2题。

解答第2题是因为这是对前面话的转折，首先因为有了神经系统的存在，我们才能感觉世界，但同时我们也为自己的感觉付出代价，那就是痛。

因此比较合适的答案是B，如果我们说事物有利有弊一般。

）The history of torture (折磨) is based on the human body being open to pain.But there is a way to handle pain. Look at the Indian fakir (苦行僧) who sits on a bed of nails. Fakirs can put a needle fight through an arm, and feel no pain. This ability that some humans have developed to handle pain should give us ideas about how the mind can deal with pain.（第3题。

高考英语阅读理解模拟题(有详解)

高考英语阅读理解模拟题(有详解)AMr. Smith is well known in Washington because of his many social blunders. He always likes to attend the various so-cial functions because he wants to expand his circle of friends. Whenever he is invited, he goes, unless he is ill.Recently he received an invitation to a fashionable ban-quet. Although he did not know the hostess, he accepted the invitation. He was secretly very pleased, because he felt that his reputation as a desirable guest was growing.When he arrived at the banquet hall, he found that about one hundred people had been invited. He began to move a-round the hall. He spoke to other guests whether he knew them or not. He soon realized that he had never met any of the other people present, although they seemed to know each other.At dinner he was seated beside a very dignified woman. The woman tried to be friendly even though she had never met Mr. Smith before. She spoke politely whenever he spoke to her. Between the first and the second course of the meal, she, turned to Mr. Smith and said, “Do you see that gray-haired man at the end of the table? T he one with glasses.”“Ah, yes. Who is he?”“He’s the Secretary of the Interior!” she replied.Mr. Smith said, “So that’s the secretary of the Interior! I’ m afraid that I find very little to admire about him, although he is the Secretary.”The woman stiffened and did not reply. Mr. Smith continued in spite of her coldness. “I really can’t see how he received his appointment unless he is perhaps a relative of the President.”“It hardly matters whether you like the Secretary or not,” she said. “He was chosen because the President thought he was the man for the job. If he does the job well, you should have no complaint.”“That’s just it,” persisted Mr. Smith. “No one does the things he does, unless he is a complete fool!”“Sir!” said the woman in all her dignity. “Do you know who I am?” “No,” replied Mr. Smith.“I am the Secretary’s wife,” she said coldly. Mr. Smith was shocked, but he went on in spite of his embarrassment. “Madam, do you know who I am?”“No, I don’t,” the woman replied.“Thank goodness!” exclaimed Mr. Smith, as he quickly left the table.1. Why is Mr. Smith well known in Washington?A. He’s the Secretary of the Interior.B. He has more friends than other people.C. He always makes foolish mistakes on social occasions.D. He likes to go to all kinds of parties.2. At dinner he was seated beside a very dignified woman. The underlined part means ________.A. beautifulB. seriousC. nobleD. kind-hearted3. When Mr. Smith learned that the woman didn’t know who he was, he felt ________.A. shockedB. worriedC. embarrassedD. relievedBAdvertising can be a service to the customer. This is true when advertisements give reliable infor-mation about the goods advertised. Such information is needed if the customer is to make a sensible choice when he buys. It is useful in that it lets him know of the kinds of goods in the shops. Printed advertisements do this job best. Customers can collect them and compare them. They can be taken along to shops and their claims can be checked against the actual goods in the shops.However, some advertisements are not very useful to the customer. Instead of helping him to sat-isfy his real needs, they set out to make him want things. They set out to create a need. These adver-tisements are cleverly done. The people who produce them understand our weaknesses. They set out to make us believe that what they advertise will make us cleverer, prettier and more handsome, if only we use it. Actually, it is our money they are after and we should be on guard.Some advertisements mislead customers by using part of the truth to suggest something false, and it is skillfully made to give that idea to the careless reader, listener or viewer.At its best advertising can be useful to the customer. At its worst it can mislead him. Many newspapers check on the goods for which the advertisements made claims. Most newspapers are very careful about the small advertisements, which try to sell goods directly to the readers by post. Many newspapers print information about this on their small advertisement pages. Advertising has become a very big business, and good firms in it do all they can to make sure it is conducted with some attention to truth. This is a help to the customer. But thebest way is for customers to be on the lookout.4. It can be inferred from the passage that advertisements can be useful if they ________.A. how a long list of the goods advertisedB. give true information about goodsC. tell customers what to buyD. appear on TV and in newspapers at the same time5. Advertisements that play on our weaknesses make us ________.A. desire things we do not needB. purchase the goods we needC. attracted by themD. become loyal reader, listener or viewer6. according to the text, which of the following is TRUE?A. All advertising firms do not care to tell the truth about the goods they advertise.B. All advertising firms only care to make money, as advertising is a big business.C. Most advertising firms make sure that advertisements do not purposely cheat.D. The advertised goods are often of poor quality.7. The underlined word "They" refers to ________.A. GoodsB. CustomersC. ShopsD. AdvertisementsCGu Changwei was the first Chinese cinematographer to be nominated (提名) for an Oscar, and he is regarded by Zhang Yimou as the best cinematographer in China. Gu was behind the camera for many of Zhang Yimou’s famous films including the one that rocketed Zhang to fame: "Red Sorghum (高粱)". And now this master of the visual has taken on his first directing role with the film "Peacock". So Gu Changwei has come out from behind the camera into the spotlight (聚光灯).Gu Changwei is very serious about his directing "Peacock". To get the authentic atmosphere, Gu took his film crew to t he city of Anyang in central China’s Henan province where the story took place, to shoot the film. He chose all new actors because he didn’t want "stars" appeal to weaken the power of the story, and he also had his actors trained in the local dialect. For this film Gu has been able to get out from behind the camera to manage every aspect of the film, and to realize his own ideals in movie-making."Peacock" is about the life of an average family in a small town in Henan province in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Gu chose this story for his first movie because he grew up during this same pe-riod and it struck a chord with him.“Peacock” wrapped up production in June, 2004. It’s aimed at the foreign film market and will be entered in February’s Berlin Film F estival, and released in China at the same time. But at the end of last October, Gu took “Peacock” to his Alma Mater, the Beijing Film Academy, one of the most famous film colleges in China, to hold a preview. The film was warmly received by both teachers and students.8. The underlined word “cinematographer” refers to a person who ________.A. has been nominated for an OscarB. uses a camera to shoot filmsC. directs first-class filmsD. arranges for cinema shows9. Gu didn’t employ “stars” in his film because ________.A. tars usually stick to their own acting stylesB. the stars may not be able to speak the local dialectC. the stars may share the audience’s attention with the storyD. it was not easy for him, a fresh hand, to invite stars to join him10. Gu chose such a story for his first movie because ________.A. he was born in the early 1970sB. he grew up in Henan provinceC. he was popular in Henan provinceD. the story had something to do with his own experience11. From the passage we can learn that "Peacock"________.A. is the film for which Gu is likely to win an Oscar prizeB. has already become popular both at home and abroadC. has its production started last summerD. will be publicly shown in spring, 200512. Please choose a proper title for this passage.A. rom behind the camera into the spotlightB. Chinese cinematographer to be nominated for OscarC. New faces to appear in “Peacock”D. "Peacock" to enter foreign film marketDHow the iron of tomorrow can change your lifestyle today.(the first Self Cleaning Iron)General Electric introduces the iron of tomorrow.

Children remem-ber and learn from mistakes when their own dollars are lost or spent foolishly.How large an allowance is appropriate? Experts say there is not right amount. Actual amounts differ from region to re-gion, and from family to family.To set an appropriate allowance for your child, work up a weekly budget. Allow for entertainment expenditures such as movies and snacks. Next, include everyday expenses such as lunch money, bus fare, school supplies. "If you make the child responsible for these ‘ ills’," says Josephine Swanson, a consumer specialist, " he or she will learn to budget for nec-essary expenditures."Finally, add some extra money to make saving possible. If you can, keep your child’s allowance in line with that of his friends. A child whose purchasing power falls away below his peers’ can feel left out.It can be tough, but avoid excusing your children when they make a mistake with their allowance. When Brooke Ste-phens was ten and growing up in Jacksonville, her mother gave her $5 a week, $1.75 of which was for bus fare and lunch." If yo u lose your money," Brooke’s mother told her, "you walk home."One week the girl spent all her allowance in a candy store, then she called home for a ride. " Mom made me walk home," recalls Stephens, now a financial planner in Brook-lyn. " At first I was angry. But I finally realized that she was trying to teach me an important lesson. "Experts advise that an allowance should not be tied directly to a child’s daily chores. Kids should help around the house not because they get paid for it but because they share responsibilities as members of a family. You might, however, pay a child for doing extra jobs at home, which can develop his or her initiative.17. Which of the following is the possible title of the passage?A. How to develop a child’s initiati ve.B. How to work up an amount of pocket money.C. How to teach a child to save money.D. How to teach a child about money.18. It can be inferred from the passage that if a child is given an allowance, he or she may ________.A. spend all the money very soonB. be spoiled and finally ruinedC. feel responsible and careful about moneyD. lost the money and can not return home19. In Paragraph 4, the words “his peers” refer to ________.A. his parentsB. his teachersC. his financial expertsD. his friends20. The author implies in the passage that ________.A. paying children for their housework is no goodB. a child’s initiative can be developed if he or she is paid for all the houseworkC. children may feel lost and lonely if they have no pocket moneyD. children may learn to put aside some money if they are given a great amount of pocket money【答案与简析】(A)本文记述了一个在华盛顿因犯错而有名的Smith先生在一次宴会上，由于出言不逊而自讨没趣的故事。

大学英语四级阅读理解模拟试题及答案

大学英语四级阅读理解模拟试题及答案大学英语四级阅读理解模拟试题及答案「篇一」1. C 细节题。

因为Leadville可以为Tabor带来巨富。

这一点不是Leadville得名的原因，因为在文章第二段中，讲到这一点时，提及三个原因：A.因为Tabor成为当地的居民代表人物，B.因为在Leadville有丰富的铅的储藏量。

D.因为Leadville是因为Tabor重要而起的名。

2. D 词汇题。

第二段中grubstake的词义与D所述内容是相同的，即“供给探矿者资金，衣物，食品以及其他物品”。

3. A 细节题。

Tabor第一次真正发财是他为两名矿工提供资助，为此他获得他们矿资源三分之一的股份。

见文章第三段4-9行内容：两名开矿者从Tabor那儿借走价值17美元的物品，作为回报，Tabor获得他们矿资源三分之一股份。

于是两位开矿者在一座山旁的不毛之地开始挖掘，九天之后，发现了银的富矿，于是Tabor又将两人的.股份全买下，这样，银矿属于Tabor一个人所有，这个矿就是后来著名的“匹兹堡”矿。

Tabor用17美元的投资换来了130万美元的收获。

4. B 推断题。

由原文可知泰勃的财产来源是有一定偶然性的，但是毕竟也是基于他开创“grubstake”模式，因为A、D都不对，C更是没有根据，因为他还没有娶第二位夫人这一切就发生了。

分析泰勃的做法，会得出B选项所示的结论。

5. B 推断题。

如果本文是一篇文章的第一部分，那么在文章的第二部分将介绍谁呢?可以从文章第一句分析出来，在Leadville的黄金年代，其多彩的特点当中，Tabor及其第二任妻子Elizabeth McCourt是值得大书特书的，接着，文章都在讲述有关H.A.W.Tabor发家致富的历史，如先买下匹兹堡矿，后又买下Matchless矿，最后成为市长，代理州长，等等，所以涉及到的全是男主人公，因此下边再讲的话，应成为女主人公即Elizabeth McCourt的天地了，她是Tabor的第二任妻子。

（英语）英语阅读理解模拟试题一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解Notre-Dame, the cathedral (大教堂) that serves as one of Paris's most beloved monuments, is on fire. According to The New York Times, the fire began around 6: 30 p.m. local time, when tourists urgently rushed out of the building. While Andre Finot, a spokesman for the cathedral, told The Times, that the cause of the fire is still unknown and that no one has been hurt while damage to the building appears catastrophic（灾难性的）.CNN reports that over 400 firefighters have been sent to fight the fire, but that they may be unable to save the cathedral. Built in the 12th century, Notre-Dame houses several relics important to Catholics (天主教徒). NBC News reports that relics from Saint Genevieve and Saint Denis may been lost, together with a relic believed to be from Jesus Christ's crown of thorns, but it states that authorities now believe that the cathedral has been saved from “total destruction”. Notre-Dame is visited by a reported 30, 000 people a day and 13 million people per year. Its destruction represents a global cultural loss. "This is just horrible", Mohamed Megdoul, 33, a film producer and witness to the fire told The Times, speaking through tears. "A thousand years of history is being wiped away. This belonged to the whole world, and now it's disappearing."French President Emmanuel Macron expressed his sadness on Twitter. "Notre-Dame of Paris in flames," reads an English translation of his statement. "Emotion for a whole nation. Thoughts for all Catholics and for all the French. Like all our countrymen, I'm sad together to see this part of us burn." Other politicians, including Melanis Trump, London Mayor Sadiq Khan, U. K. Prime Minister Theresa May also shared their sadness on Twitter.（1）What do we know about Notre-Dame according to the passage?A.It has been completely destroyed by the fire.B.It's a huge political loss to the world.C.It's only meaningful to Catholics.D.The reason of the fire remained to be found out.（2）What does the underlined sentence in the third paragraph imply?A.The history of France is destroyed because of the fire.B.The loss the fire caused is huge.C.The damage of Notre-Dame is being wiped off.D.The cathedral has been saved from "total destruction".（3）What's the purpose of writing the passage?A.To report a disaster of Notre-Dame.B.To express people's sadness of the destruction.C.To emphasize the value of Notre-Dame.D.To show the concerns from the worldwide.【答案】（1）D（2）B（3）A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道，报道了举世闻名的法国巴黎圣母院发生火灾的相关信息。

（1）考查细节理解。

根据第一段中的“While Andre Finot, a spokesman for the cathedral, told The Times, that the cause of the fire is still unknown and that no one has been hurt while damage to the building appears catastrophic（灾难性的）”这起火灾的原因还不得而知,对建筑的破坏是灾难性的，并没有说建筑被完全破坏了。

故选D。

（2）考查句义猜测。

根据第三段中的“ Its destruction represents a global cultural loss ‘A thousand years of history is being wiped away. ’”可知,它的毁灭代表了全球文化的损失。

Mohamed Megdoul说道：这很糟糕，一千年的历史就这样被破坏殆尽。

wipe away“擦掉，破坏殆尽”。

由此判断出这就话显示了火灾造成的损失是巨大的。

故选B。

（3）考查写作意图。

纵观全文可知，本文是一篇新闻报道，文章报道了举世闻名的法国巴黎圣母院发生火灾的相关信息。

因此本文的目的在于报导巴黎圣母院遭遇的巨大灾难。

故选A。

【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测和写作意图三个题型的考查，是一篇新闻报道，考生需要准确捕捉细节信息，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It has been discovered that after the age of sixteen, the number of our brain cells begins to decrease at a speed of several million a year. They simply die off. In certain types of activity, the human brain is at its highest point in the early twenties, when it has collected enough information to be able to use the vast number of cells freely in the most effective way. Pure mathematics is one of the fields in which this happens, and we know that Albert Einstein made all his world-shaking discoveries between the age of about 20 and 25, and spent the rest of his life tidying them up and arranging them.But in certain other types of activity (of which being an author is perhaps one), experience is more important than sharpness of brain, and there one usually finds that a person reaches his or her peak much later in life.Besides sharpness of brain and experience, here is another thing that is very important, and that is wisdom. One can have a very quick, inventive brain and plenty of experience, but if one uses these foolishly, one harms both oneself and others. Wisdom does not always come with age ——there are plenty of foolish middle-aged people about ——but the average person tends to learn wisdom as he gets older, usually by making painful of embarrassing mistakes. Leaning to be wise is basically learning what is not possible; and what is possible but so difficult that it is not worth all the trouble one has to go through to get there. Mostly, it is learning about human nature; how real people behave and react, as against how one would like them to behave and react. One can read and hear lot of idealistic stuff about how to make the world a better place, which would be found if it was based on an accurate observation of human nature, but which is basically a waste of time because it is not.（1）According to the writer, the great discoveries made by Albert Einstein were mainly a resultin________.A.years of hard workB.sharpness of the brainC.rich experienceD.his deep understanding of the nature（2）Some people achieve success much later in life because .A.their work often requires much experienceB.they do not have a chance to show their talentsC.they have to learn lessons from failuresD.they fail to realize earlier the importance of hard work（3）The importance of wisdom lies in the fact that .A.it helps to avoid various mistakesB.it contributes to one's creativityC.it encourages one to go forward in face of difficultyD.it provides the right direction of efforts（4）The writer came to believe that .A.it is always a waste of time to make plans about the futureB.it is human nature to make attempts on what looks impossibleC.one should always challenge the impossible to push the society forwardD.one has to use wisdom in deciding what is the best thing to do【答案】（1）B（2）A（3）D（4）D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了人类的大脑在20岁左右于巅峰，在以后的成就多数是因为需要丰富的经验。
