②在记忆中,我从来没有享受过在父亲臂弯里、脊背上撒娇的幸福」父爱,在我童年的回忆中一片空白。

2023年阅读理解专项训练试题二
阅读理解专项训练试题二一、阅读理解1、Stress may be defined as the response of the body to any demand. Whenever people experience something pleasant or unpleasant, we say they are under stress. We call the pleasant kind eustress, the unpleasant kind distress.People sometimes compare our life with that of the caveman who didn't have to worry about the stock market or the atomic bomb. They forget that the caveman worried about being eaten by a bear or about dying of hunger—things that few people worry about today. It's not that people suffer more stress today; it's just that they think they do.It is inconceivable that anyone should have no stress at all. Most people who are ambitious and want to accomplish something live under stress. They need it. But excessive stress is by all means harmful. Worse, chronic exposure to stress over a long time may cause more serious diseases and may actually shorten your life.The most frequent causes of distress in men are psychological—lack of adaptability, not having a code ofbehaviour. So the secret of coping with stress is not to avoid it, but to do what you like to do and what you are made to do, at your own rate. For most people, it is really a matter of learning how to behave in various situations. The most important thing is to have a code of life, to know how to live The modern man is suffering()A.more stress than the cavemanB.less stress than the cavemanC.different stress from the cavemanD.the same stress as the caveman2、According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT true()A.Everyone will suffer certain kinds of stress in his life B.Chronic exposure to stress may shorten your lifeC.Excessive stress is especially harmful to healthD.Most people can learn to avoid stress3、In the third sentence of the third paragraph, it refers to()A.stressB.ambitious peopleC.somethingD.confidence4、According to the passage, one should()A.try to avoid as much stress as possibleB.cope with stress in different waysC.learn to do things at his own rateD.have the response of the body to any demand5、To be a good manager, you must be careful to distinctly define the proper boundary between yourself and your staff. Here are some points to remember.Be clear about the relationship. To maintain the respect for your employees while being friends with them, you must be direct about the nature of your business relationship. This means being clear about what the goals are, how your employees are to help you reach them, and what they can expect from you. By communicating these things clearly, you avoid the risk that an employee can misinterpret your friendship and behave in an unprofessional manner.Be social—to a degree. In most offices, there's usually a lot of social networking, whether it's a Friday lunch or drinks after work. It's natural for managers to be a part of that. Just remember to socialize with everyone, be careful with alcohol, and don't be the last one at the party. Also, keep socializing at the office to a minimum. You want to ensure that you arerespected as well as liked.Don't fake it. Maybe you want to try to be friends with all your employees, because you think that would strengthen your team. While some management training courses stress that bosses should ask their staff about their personal lives, such as their weekend plans, their families, or their children, such efforts can backfireif the manager is viewed as not sincere. It's okay to ask occasional questions of staff, but don't make a big production out of it. Getting to know people takes timeTo prevent employees from behaving unprofessionally, managers should()A.show respect for their employees'individual needsB.let them know about their future career developmentC.set short-term and long-term goals for their business D.make them clear about the nature of the business relationship6、According to Paragraph 3, managers are advised()A.to create a friendly work environment for their staff B.to keep socializing with the employees to a degreeC.to avoid socializing with their employees after work D.to be the first person to a party or to a gathering7、The word backfire in the last paragraph most probably means()A.strengthen the relationshipB.start a fire in the backyardC.produce an undesired resultD.improve management skills8、The passage is mainly about the importance of()A.management training courses for employersB.the proper relationship between managers and staffC.setting business goals for both managers and staffD.being a part of social networking for a good manager 9、Sometimes you'll hear people say that you can't love others until you love yourself. Sometimes you'll hear people say that you can't expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, you've got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that we're the apple of our parents'eye, and that our grandmas think we are great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics, but sometimes it's a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge, it is time you built a positive self-image and learnt to love yourself.The self-image is your own mind's picture of yourself. Thisimage includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be, and thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world. The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Don't allow doubts to occur in it.It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can't move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you are silly because you aren't good at math, find a tutor. If you think you are weak because you can't run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you are dull because you don't wear the latest trend, buy a few new clothes.The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long waytowards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat yourself on the back, you'll know you're well on your way You need to build a positive self-image when you()A.dare to challenge yourselfB.feel it hard to change yourselfC.are unconfident about yourselfD.have a high opinion of yourself10、According to the passage, our self-images()A.have positive effectsB.are probably untrueC.are often changeableD.have different functions11、What is the passage mainly about()A.How to prepare for your successB.How to face challenges in your lifeC.How to build a positive self-imageD.How to develop your good qualities12、Who are the intended readers of the passage()A.ParentsB.AdolescentsC.EducatorsD.People in general13、43.____()14、44.____()15、45.____()16、46.____()17、47.____()18、48.____()19、49.____()20、50.____()21、When we see well, we do not think about our eyes very often. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.People who are near-sighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Everything else seems blurry, so they need glasses. Many people who do a lot of work, such as writing, reading and sewing, become near-sighted. Then people who are far-sighted suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at an arm's length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too.Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are notexactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism (散光). This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people's eyes become cloudy because of cataracts(白内障). Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.Having two good eyes is important for judging distance. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle. To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object out of your other eye. You will find the object's relation to the background and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes When things far away seem blurry, one is probably()A.near-sightedB.far-sightedC.astigmaticD.suffering from cataracts22、People who suffer from astigmatism have()A.one eye bigger than the other oneB.eyes that are not exactly the right shapeC.an eye difficulty that can be corrected by an operationD.an eye difficulty that cannot be corrected by glasses 23、Some eye problems can be corrected by glasses except ()A.astigmatismB.cataractsC.near-sightednessD.far-sightedness24、Having two eyes instead of one is particularly useful for ()A.seeing at nightB.seeing objects far awayC.looking over a wide areaD.judging distance25、Why do human beings still risk their lives under ground and doing one of the dirtiest and most dangerous jobs in the world? It is an increasingly urgent question, given the recent mining accidents in Sago, W. Va and Huntington, Utah. A small group of engineers and robotics experts look forward to a day in the not-too-distant future when robots and other technologies do most of the dangerous mining work.Robotic technology, in particular, holds much promise, McAteer says, especially when it comes to mapping mines and rescuingtrapped miners—the special operations of the mining industry. One of the first mining robots was developed five years ago at Carnegie Mellon University's Robotics Institute. It was called Groundhog. It used lasers(激光器) to see in dark tunnels and map abandoned mines—some of the most dangerous work in the business.The latest design is called Cave Crawler. It's a bit smaller than Groundhog, and even more advanced. It can take photos and videos and has more sensors that can detect the presence of dangerous gases. Incredibly, the robot has a real sense of logic. If it comes across an obstacle, it gets momentarily confused. It has to think about what to do and where to go next. Sometimes it throws a fitjust like a real person.The greatest problem, though, is cost. The money of the earliest research project was provided by the government, but that money has dried up, and it's not clear where the future money will come from. Partly for that reason, and partly because of advances in safety, mining is not nearly as dangerous as it was in the past. Since 1990, fatalities(死亡) have declined by 67% and injuries by 51%, according to the National Mining Association.Some experts predict that robots in mines will serve much ofthe same function that they do in the automotive industry. The robots do the most boring and dangerous jobs, but won't get rid of the need for human workersThe underlined phrase throws a fit in Paragraph 4 probably means ()A.gets angryB.gets sickC.becomes hungryD.becomes cheerful26、We can infer from the last paragraph that()A.robots in mines will serve much in the automotive industry B.there will be no need for human workers in minesC.the mining robots will have a very bright futureD.robots in mines only do some simple jobs now27、We can infer from the passage that()A.the mining robots do most of the mining work at present B.Groundhog can discover the presence of dangerous gases C.experts are trying to make robots help miners with dangerous workD.robots cannot do dangerous work in dark areas28、What can be the best title for the passage()A.Mining Accidents in AmericaB.Robots in MinesC.Cave Crawler, the Latest RobotD.The Future of Robots29、Child maltreatment is a global problem with serious lifelong consequences. There are no reliable global estimates for the prevalence of child maltreatment. Data from many countries, especially low-and middle-income countries, are lacking.Child maltreatment is complex and difficult to study. Current estimates vary widely depending on the country and the method of research used. Nonetheless, international studies reveal that approximately 20% of women and 5% to 10% of men report being sexually abused as children, while 25% to 50% of all children report being physically abused. Additionally, many children are subject to emotional abuse (sometimes referred to as psychological abuse).Every year, there are about 31,000 homicide deaths in children under 15. This number underestimatesthe true extent of the problem, as a significant proportion of deaths due to child maltreatment are incorrectly attributed to falls, burns and drowning.Child maltreatment causes suffering to children and familiesand can have long-term consequences. Maltreatment causes stress that is associated with disruption in early brain development. Extreme stress can impair the development of the nervous and immune systems. Consequently, as adults, maltreated children are at increased risk for behavioural, physical and mental health problems. Via the behavioural and mental health consequences, maltreatment can contribute to heart disease, cancer, suicide and sexually transmitted infections.Beyond the health consequences of child maltreatment, there is an economic impact, including costs of hospitalization, mental health treatment, child welfare, and longer-term health costs.A number of risk factors for child maltreatment have been identified. These risk factors are not present in all social and cultural contexts, but provide an overview when we attempt to understand the causes of child maltreatment.It is important to emphasize that children are the victims and are never to blame for maltreatment. A number of characteristics of an individual child may increase the likelihood of being maltreated, such as being either under four years old or an adolescent, being unwanted, failing to fulfill the expectations of parents and having special needs, cryingpersistently or having abnormal physical featuresThe word underestimates in Paragraph 3 means()A.exaggeratesB.points outC.assumesD.miscalculates30、Child maltreatment can bring all the following consequences EXCEPT()A.stressB.suicideC.heart diseaseD.poor memory31、How many aspects are included in the economic consequences due to child maltreatment()A.Costs of hospitalization and mental health treatment B.Child welfare and longer-term health costsC.Tuition feesD.Both A and B32、Children are more likely to be maltreated if they() A.cry a lotB.are not good-lookingC.are over 4 years oldD.are quiet33、43.____()34、44.____()35、45.____()36、46.____()37、47.____()38、48.____()39、49.____()40、50.____()41、After a day's hard work, we need some sleep. During the sleep, the fatigue of the body disappears and recuperation (恢复) begins. The tired mind gathers new energy, and the memory improves.Some adults require little sleep; others need eight to ten hours in every twenty-four hours. Infants sleep sixteen to eighteen hours daily, the amount gradually diminishing as they grow older. Young students may need twelve hours; university students may need ten. A worker with a physically demanding job may also need ten, whereas an executive working under great pressure may manage on six to eight. Many famous people havelittle sleep. Napoleon Bonaparte, Thomas Edison and Charles Darwin apparently averaged only four to six hours a night. Whatever your individual need is, you can be sure that by the age of thirty you will have slept for a total of more than twelve years. By that age you will also have developed a sleep routine: a favorite hour, a favorite bed, a favorite position, and a rule you need to follow in order to rest comfortably. Investigators have tried to find out how long a person can go without sleep. Several people have reached more than 115 hours—nearly five days. Whatever the limit is, it is absolute. Animals that kept awake for from five to eight days have died of exhaustion. The limit for human beings is probably about a weekBy writing this passage, the writer intends to tell us that ()A.sleep is important for good healthB.a light sleep is as restful as a deep sleepC.memory is improved during sleepD.sleep is relatively unimportant for human beings42、From the amount of sleep Napoleon, Edison, and Darwin required, we can conclude()A.that they were famousB.that they were executivesC.that they were intelligentD.none of the above43、The amount of sleep required may()A.tire an individual's mindB.help infants grow olderC.apply pressure to an executiveD.depend on an individual's age44、The author implies that if human beings are kept awake for more than a week the result()A.is hard to imagineB.will probably be a mental breakdownC.is difficult to describeD.will probably be death45、A Language Programme for TeenagersWelcome to Teenagers Abroad!

The stone sculpture of Dai Ailian is one of them.Dai Ailian was born in Trinidad, an independent republic in the West Indies, in 1916, with her forefathers living abroad for many years. In 1930, she went to London to study dance. Many famous dancers such as Anton Dolin, Rudolf Laban and Mary Wigman were her teachers. Though ballet and modern dance were not well connected at that time, Dai Ailian learned both of them. This is of great significance for her later development.Dai Ailian returned to her homeland in 1939 after the Anti-Japanese War broke out. She gave benefit performances in Hong Kong and on the mainland. Major programs such as Homesick Melody, Selling, Wheat Gleaning Girl and Story of the Guerrill all showed sympathy for the poor and concern over the nation's fate.Dai Ailian's art career entered a golden period after the founding of the People's Republic of China. She became the first president of the National Dance Troupe, the first headmistress of the Beijing Dancing School and the director and advisor of the Central Ballet Troupe. Her representative works were group dances called Lotus and Flying Apsaras presented in Berlin and Warsaw in 1953 and 1955 and won her awards.Dai Ailian always says, Ballet is my work while folk dance is my greatest pleasure.

这类文章,主要通过对人物外貌、语言、动作、心理的描写,通过一件或几件典型事例的叙述,来表现人物的思想品质和精神风貌。
知识梳理写人文章我们阅读时,应该注意以下三点。
1、熟悉文章所写的事情肖像描写例文:“客人年过半百,瘦削,脸上皱纹不很多,却深,尤其额上和眼角的几道,形似刀刻。
一头黑白相间的花发,鬓角却全白了,白得扎眼。
一件半袖浅灰衬衣,看样子穿在身上足有三四年了,洗得却透亮,规规整整地扎束在腰里。
客人没带什么东西,只有一只深蓝色的尼龙方便袋,空空瘪瘪的,绾了袋口放在腿上。
”语言描写[定义]通过人物语言的描绘来刻画人物性格。
要求人物语言具有个性和行动性,使读者能从特定的语言内容,乃至各具特色的说话腔调、惯用词汇及表达方式中,准确地把握不同人物独自的出身经历、习惯爱好,思想感情和性格特点,产生闻其声如见其人的艺术效果。
例文:门被打坏了,开了一个篮球大的窟窿。
班主任来了,瞪着眼:“谁踢坏的?”捣乱鬼董小天斜着眼,冷笑着:“鬼知道,又没有人叫我一定要看好门?”旁边的张小勇,朝老师做了鬼脸:“哈,开了窗,好通风。
”谁知这一下却惹恼了站在旁边的高芳芳。
“是董小天,他来时,一阵风正好把门关了,他就抬起脚,用力一踢。
”董小天脚一跺:“大白天别说梦话!你小心点,不要诬陷好人!”“我才不瞎说呢,大家都看见的。
你凭什么,做了坏事,还要耍嘴。
”老师说:“还有谁看见的?”“我,没看见。
”李星使劲地咽了一口水,神情恍惚。
点评;通过一系列的语言描写,将捣乱鬼董小天无事生非,油嘴滑舌;张小勇油嘴滑舌,混淆是非;高芳芳正义、勇敢,不留情面;李星性格软弱,胆小怕事,各自的思想境界以及性格特点描写得活灵活现。
行动描写[定义]对人物在一定的环境和社会关系中的行为动作进行具体生动的描绘。
人物的行动受其思想感情的制约,显示出某种社会意义。

阅读理解练习(2)Passage 4:One way that scientists learn man is by studying animals, such as mice and monkeys. The scientists in this laboratory are experimenting on mice. They are studying the relationship between diet and health. At this time, over one hundred experiments are being done in this laboratory.In one of these experiments , the scientists are studying the relationship between the amount of food the mice eat and their health. The mice are in three groups. All three groups are receiving the same healthy diet. But the amount of food that each group is receiving is different. The first group is eating one cup of food each day, the second group is eating two cups, and the third group of mice is eating three cups.After three years, the healthiest group is the one that is only eating one cup of food each day. The mice in this group are thinner than normal mice. But they are more active. Most of the day, they are running , playing with one another, and using the equipment in their cages. Also , they are living longer. Mice usually live for two years. Most of the mice in this group are still alive after three years.The second group of mice is normal weight. They are healthy, too . They are active , but not as active as the thinner mice. But they are only living about two years, not the three years or more of the thinner mice.The last group of mice is receiving more food than the other two groups. Most of the day, these mice are eating or sleeping. They are not very active. These mice are living longer than the scientists thought----about a year and a half. But they aren’t as healthy.

that the woman,Natalie Smith,had read something on a friend’s refrigerator:“Practice random(不经意的)kindness and senseless acts of beauty.” The phrase impressed her so much that she copied it down.Judy Foreman spotted the same phrase on a warehouse wall far away from home.When it stayed in her mind for days,she gave up and drove all the way back to copy it down.“I thought it was beautiful,” she said,explaining why she’d taken to writing it at the bottom of all her letters,“like a message from above”.Her husband,Frank,liked the phrase so much that he put it up on the classroom wall for his students,one of whom was the daughter of Alice Johnson,a local news reporter.Alice put it in the newspaper,admitting(承认)that though she liked it,s he didn’t know where it came from or what it really meant.Two days later,Alice got a call from Anne Herbert,a woman living in Marin.It was in a restaurant that Anne wrote the phrase down on a piece of paper,after turning it around in her mind for days.“Here’s the idea,” Anne says.“Anything you think there should be more of,do it randomly.” Her fantasies include painting the classrooms of shabby(破败的)schools,leaving hot meals on kitchen tables in the poor part of town,and giving money secretly to a proud ol d lady.Anne says,“Kindness can build on itself as much as violence can.”The acts of random kindness spread.If you were one of those

Clay is found almost everywhere in the world. It was formed by the action of wind and water on the rocks over thousands of years.Clay is important because it is used around the world to make containers of all kinds. Potters (陶土) add water to soften the clay, making it easier to form into shapes by hand or by machine. T hen it’s fired in a extremely hot stove. The result is a container with a hard surface and last for many years. In many countries, clay was formed from volcanoes. This kind of clay usually contains many minerals. So the fire to make container from volcanic clay must be hotter than those use form non-volcanic clay. The fire may be as hot as 1400 ℃. It is also important to dry the clay containers slowly. this means that the highest temperature should not be reached too fast.You can add materials to clay to gain desired results. For example, you can add sand to prevent tiny breaks or lines form forming in the finished product. But you should not use sand from the coast of oceans. Instead, you should use sand from rivers or form other areas of land that are not near the sea. You can usually find good clay in low areas of island or land especially if volcanoes help form the land. Clay often exists in fields covered with some water .the clay will be found under one meter below the ground. Riverbanks often also have clay about one meter or less under the surface. You can recognize clay because it is very shiny when it’s wet. You can also perform a test .take some of the material and add enough water to it to make it seem like you are making bread. Then press it in your hand until it is about the size of an egg. It’s probably clay if it holds together instead of falling apart when you stop pressing 1.Why is clay important worldwide?A. it contains an important element.B. It is made into various containers.C. It can be of any shape and color.D. It can be used for many years.2. Volcanic clay requires higher temperature because .A. it is collected from soilB. it usually contains more sandC. it usually contains many mineralsD. it is used to make larger containers.3.

To make it stronger.5.What does the author tell us in the last paragraph?A. Tips for us to pass a test.B. The process to make bread.C. Proper ways to recognize clay.D. Where we can find good clay.BCeasing to Wear TiesIt’s useless. It’s dirty. It spreads disease. That’s why the British Medical Association in the UK recently called for hospital doctors to stop wearing ties.That leads to another question. Why does anyone wear a tie? Ties serve no purpose. They do not cover any part of your body and keep you warm. They always seem to get covered in food stains. Perhaps that is the purpose of the tie. It lets everyone know what you just ate.Ties have an odd history. Soldiers from Croatia, in Eastern Europe, served as mercenaries(雇佣军)in various conflicts in the 17th century. They were identified by brightly colored pieces of silk worn around the neck. Known as cravats(围巾),these became a popular fashion item in France and eventually evolved into the tie.It’s an interesting story, but it doesn’t tell us why men want to put useless pieces of cloth or silk around their necks. The answer seems to be about identification(身份证明).In the 19th-century Britain, ties were used by universities, military regiments(团),sports clubs, schools and gentleman’s clubs. Each tie was in a particular set of colors which identified the wearer as a member of that organization. Wearin g ties was also the mark of Britain’smost powerful classes. That made the tie itself a symbol of power and respect. And that led it to be adopted by a much larger class-the business class.You cannot wear a tie if you work with machinery. So wearing a tie became a sign that you were a man who used his brain to make a living, rather than his hands. It showed you were serious. It showed you were a professional. It meant that everyone who wanted a job in business had to wear one. It was just impossible to take seriously a man who did not wear a piece of colored silk around his neck. This is how millions of people came to wear ties across the world.Is there a future for ties? The signs are not promising. Many political leaders, including British Prime Minister Tony Blair, now go without ties.6.Why were British doctors advised not to wear ties?A. Because food stains are usually seen covering ties.B. Because ties are thought to be useless and harmful.C. Because ties are found to be in the way of operation.D. Because wearing ties is considered to be out of date.7. The third paragraph talks mainly about .A. the origin of the tieB. the function of the tieC. the advantages of the tieD. the reasons for wearing the tie8. We learn from Paragraph 4 that .A. ties are still signs of people’s social statusB. the business prefer to wear ties for luckC. British schools require students to wear tiesD. ties were once used as signs of identification9. How many reasons account for the popularity of ties worldwide?A. One.B. Two.C. ThreeD. Four.10. The author mention Tony Blair in the last paragraph to .A. call attention to his questionB. make his writing interestingC. draw a conclusion in the endD. prove ties will not be popularCA healthy dose of sunshine may be the secret to staying young, British scientists have revealed. Vitamin D is produced naturally by the skin in response to sunlight and may help to slow the ageing process and protect against heart disease, according to the study. Researchers from King's College London studied 2,160 women aged between 18 and 79, looking at their telomeres - a biological marker of ageing found in DNA. As people get older their telomeres get shorter and they become more susceptible to certain illnesses.But the study found women with high levels of vitamin D had comparatively longer telomeres - a sign of being biologically younger and healthier. The study suggests vitamin D may help to slow down the ageing process of DNA, and therefore the ageing process as a whole.Lead researcher Dr Brent Richards said: "These results are exciting because they demonstrate for the first time that people who have higher levels of vitamin D may age more slowly than people with lower levels of vitamin D. "This could help to explain how vitamin D has a protective effect on many ageing related diseases, such as heart disease and cancer." He said further studies are required to confirm the findings.Professor Tim Spector, head of KCL's twin research unit, and a co-author of the report, added: "Although it might sound absurd, it's possible that the same sunshine which may increase our risk of skin cancer may also have a healthy effect on the general ageing process."Vitamin D made by the action of sunlight on the skin accounts for 90 per cent of the body's supply, but lower levels can also be obtained through food such as fish, eggs and breakfast cereals. Other studies have suggested the vitamin plays a key role in protecting against cancer and heart disease.11. What should we do to produce more vitamin D?A. We should increase our outdoor activities,B. We should take physical exercise regularly.C. We should take in food that is rich in vitaminD. D. We should stay in the sun in an appropriate degree.12. It can be inferred from the text that .A. those who work in the office age more slowlyB. absorbing too much sunlight benefits your skinC. those who work in the open air may age more slowlyD. being exposed to sunlight brings on the skin cancer13. We learn from the text that women with high levels of vitamin D .A. look younger than othersB. are much stronger than othersC. are never infected with illnessD. have relatively shorter telomeres14. Dr. Brent Richards wound agree that .A. higher levels of vitamin D must prevent heart diseaseB. longer telomeres make it possible to cure cancerC. vitamin D plays an active role in resisting agingD. telomeres slow down the aging process of DNA15. Which would be the best title for the text?A. The new function of vitamin D.B. Sunshine helps to keep you young.C. New findings from British scientists.D. Vitamin D may help age more slowly.DTae kwon do is the Korean martial(军事的)art of hand-to-hand combat(战斗).Maybe that should really be body-to-body combat because in tae kwon do the whole body must be trained to properly defend and attack.There are some similarities between tae kwon do and other martial arts.For example,tae kwon do uses quick straight-line moves which can also be found in Japanese martial arts,but tae kwon do also uses flowing circular moves like the type of moves found in Chinese martial arts.The main difference between tae kwon do and other martial arts is the powerful kicking technique which tae kwon do uses.This is where the name tae kwon do comes from.In Korean,tae means "to kick",kwon means "to strike with the hand",and do means "art".Therefore,tae kwon do can be translated as "the art of kicking and punching".Paintings found on the walls and ceilings of ancient Korean tombs indicate that tae kwon do,or something similar to it,has been practiced in Korea since about 50 B.C.Also,records of a specially trained group of young warriors called Hwarang explain how these young men were taught taek kyon(an early form of tae kwon do)along with history,philosophy,ethics,archery,riding,and sword fighting.Members of the Hwarang were also encouraged to travel throughout Korea in order to learn about the people who lived in all regions of the country.This helped spread the practice of taek kyon throughout Korea.Eventually taek kyon,which was practiced for exercise and sport was replaced by subak,another martial art .The purpose of subak was specifically fighting,so members of the military were required to learn it.However,people's interest in subak died out over time.By the 1800s,few Koreans actually practiced subak.After Korea was invaded in 1909,authorities put an end to the practice of all martial arts in the country.In the long run,this ban actually led to increased interest in martial arts,and secret groups began to practice subak again in the Buddhist temples hidden high in the mountains in Korea.After Korea gained its independence again in 1948,interest in many forms of martial arts grew around the country.The Korean Tae Kwon Do Association was formed in 1961,and this was followed by the World Tae Kwon Do Federation in 1973.Today,tae kwon do enjoys great popularity around the world.More than 20 million people practice tae kwon do in more than 120 countries.Tae kwon do was also made an official demonstration sport in the 1988 Olympic Games in Seoul,Korea.16.Tae kwon do means_____.A.martial arts B.the art of kicking and punching C.taek kyon or subak D.younger warrior 17.How is tae kwon do different from other forms of martial arts?A.The movements are straight.B.It is practiced by men and women.C.It uses powerful kicks.D.The movements are flowing.18.What was the Hwarang?A.A kind of martial arts B.A group of warriors.C.A kind of painting.D.An early form of tae kwon do.19.Where did Koreans practice martial arts after being invaded in 1909?A.In Buddhist temples.B.In sports competitions.C.In special schools D.In tunnels.20.When was tae kwon do first seen at an Olympic competition?A.1948.B.1973.C.1961.D.1988.keys: A: BCDAC B: BADCD C: DCACB D: BCBAD。

人教版九年级英语阅读理解习题二(含答案)All living things need energy to live and grow. This energy comes first from the sun. Plants use water and sunlight to make their own food. Animals can not make their own food, and they eat plants. Other animals then eat the plant eaters.A food chain shows what eats what. It might show that zebras eat grass and then lions eat zebras.Lions also eat other animals. Zebras eat other kinds of plants. So it takes more than one food chain to show how lions and zebras get their energy.A food web shows how food chains work together. From it we can see how energy moves from plants to animals.Plants and animals that live in hot, dry deserts depend on water as well as food. Creosote bushes have small leaves that hold water. Their seeds provide food and water for kangaroo rats. Kangaroo rats don’t need to drink water. They get all the water they need from the plants they eat. Kangaroo rats keep cool by coming out only at night to look for food. Ringtail cats also come out only at night. Ringtail cats hunt and eat kangaroo rats. Coyotes eat both the kangaroo rats and the ringtail cats.Nothing is wasted in a food wed. Vultures eat dead animals. Vultures are scavengers. Scavengers do not hunt and kill other animals to get food. They eat animals that are already dead. When a ringtail cat or a coyote dies, it makes a meal for the vultures. Scavengers do an important job in keeping the environment clean.1. Where does the energy that living things need first come from?A. Animals.B. Plants.C. The sun.D. Plant eaters.2. Why do ringtail cats come out only at night?A. Because they are afraid of coyotes.B. Because they are shy animals.C. Because it is very hot in the daytime.D. Because they can eat kangaroo rats.3.

AA farmer had some puppies to sell. He painted a sign advertising them on the edge of his yard.One day, a little boy came to buy one of the puppies. With a whistle(口哨), the farmer called, “Here, Dolly!” Out from the doghouse ran Dolly followed by four little balls of fur. The little boy stood against the fence(栅栏). His eyes danced with happiness.As the dogs made their way to the fence, the little boy noticed something else inside the doghouse. Slowly another little ball appeared, something wrong with its legs, doing its best to catch up.“I want that one,” the little boy said.The farmer knelt(跪下)down at the boy's side and said, “Son, you don't want that puppy. He will never be able to run and play with you like these other dogs would.”With that, the little boy stepped back from the fence, reached down and began rolling up one leg of his trousers. In doing so, he showed a steel brace(固定器)running down both sides of his leg attaching itself to a specially made shoe.

After several years, however, the boss promoted(提升)Bobby to the position of manager but John remained an ordinary employee(雇员). John could not take it any more, so he sent his resignation(辞职信) and complained that the boss did not value(重视)hard working workers but only promoted those who said good words of him.The boss knew that John worked ve ry hard for the years. He thought for a moment and said, “Thank you for telling me, but I have a request. I hope you will do one more thing for our company before you leave. Perhaps you will change your mind and take back your resignation.”John agreed. The boss asked him to go and find out anyone selling watermelons in the market. John went and returned soon. He said he had found out a man selling watermelons. The boss asked how much per kg, John shook his head and went back to the market to ask and returned to tell the boss $1.2 per kg.The boss told John to wait a second, and he called Bobby to go and find anyone selling watermelons in the market. Bobby went, returned and said only one person sold watermelons. $1.2 for a kg, $10 for 10kg and his watermelons added up to 340. On the table 58 melons, every melon weighs about 2 kg, bought from the south two days ago and they were fresh, red and good quality.John was surprised and realized the difference between himself and Bobby. He decided not to go away but to learn from Bobby.The story tells us that a more successful person is more concerned and thinks more. Chances are there in the daily details.

What can be the best title of the passage?A. More Concerned, More SuccessfulB. How to Buy WatermelonsC. Who Is More SuccessfulD. Proud JohnDBeach volleyball is one of those sports that can be an exciting game to play and watch, or, can just be about some friends getting together to have a great time. It’s really easy, and all you need is sand, a net and a gr oup of people, of any age or fitness level, who want to have fun.Beach volleyball can be played with as few as two people on each team, making a total of four people. However, if you are less skilled and experienced in the game, it will be easier to play with a larger team. The more players you have, the less ground each person will be responsible(负责)for covering and the more time they will have to recover in between shots. If you only have a few players, each of you will get quite a workout running for the ball after each volley. If you are looking for that relaxing, fun, low-key experience, choose larger teams.Beach volleyball is similar(相似)to regular volleyball in its rules. However, even experienced volleyball players do not realize how much more difficult it is to run and jump on sand. Since it is harder to move quickly on sand than a hard ground, play will be much slower than regular volleyball on a playground. When a player trains for beach volleyball, he will focus(专注)on building lower body strength as well as upper body. While he needs to be able to hit the ball with a great deal of power and accuracy(准确性), strengthening his legs is extremely important.Whether you are in it for the competition, or just to have a great time with your friends, beach volleyball can be very exciting and fun. You may even start out with friends and fall in love with the sport.41. When you join a large beach volleyball team, you’ll_________.A. have as many shots as possibleB. improve your volleyball skillsC. be responsible for more groundD. feel light-hearted(轻松)while playing42. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. You can hit the ball with much less power when playing beach volleyball.B. The playground size of beach volleyball is much larger than that of regular volleyball.C. You can run more quickly when you are playing regular volleyball.D. The rules of beach volleyball are totally different from those of regular volleyball.43. What does the writer think of beach volleyball?A. It is a difficult sport to learn.B. It is a very exciting and interesting sport.C. It is a sport which needs less power.D. It is a sport which needs more skills.44. Why is it much slower to play beach volley ball than regular volleyball? Because _________.A. it is not an easy job to move on sandB. it is a workout running for the ballC. it is usually a larger teamD. the beach volleyball is heavier45. The passage mainly tells us _________.A. the game of beach volleyballB. how to become an excellent volleyball playerC. why beach volleyball is one of exciting sportsD. what we should pay attention to when playing beach volleyball第二节:信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下列材料,从所给的六个选项(A、B、C、D、E和F)中,选出符合各小题要求的最佳选项,并把答案写在答题卡对应的位置上。

(一)If you come to London for the first time now, you,ll see a lot of buses and cars on the road, you,ll also see a lot of bikes because now adays more and more people travel by bike.There are a lot of reasons for this. First, it,s very cheap to use a bike, and it,s quick too. Y ou often wait for a bus for half an hour. When the bus comes, there are so many other buses and cars on the road that the bus moves very slow ly. The underground train is quick but very expensive and often crowded.I traveled to work by bus for about four years. I often arrived at work late and tired. Then one day, about two years ago, a workmate said,“I go to work by bike, why don,t we travel together?”“Because my bike is old,”I answered,“and there are so many buses and cars on the road. I always feel frightened.”“Y ou needn,t worry about this,”said my friend.“If you follow me and we ride slow ly, you,ll be fine.”Although we went slow ly, we arrived at work quickly. The bus ride took forty minutes and the bike ride took half an hour!The next day I bought myself a new bike. Now I don,t feel afraid. I love cyc ling to work, and I feel fit and well.Many people think in the same way as I do. That,s why you see a lot of bikes on the road. Who knows, perhaps in the future we,ll have roads for bicyc les only. I hope so!1.What can we see on the road if we visit London now?2. The writer went to work three years ago.3.How long did it take the writer to go to work by bike?4.Is riding a bike good for our health?5. The writer hope we’ll have roads one day.(二)Have you ever been ill? When you are ill, your body becomes hot, and there are pains all over your body. Y ou must be unhappy because of it. Y ou don't want to work. Y ou stay in bed feeling very sad.What makes us ill? It's germs.Germs are everywhere. They are very small and you can't find them with your eyes, butyou can see them w ith a microscope(显微镜). They are very, very small and there could be hundreds of them on a very small thing.Germs are always found in dirty water. When we look at dirty water under the microscope, we can see them in it.

①那年初春的一个早晨,当我起床时,已经来不及从从容容地走大路去上学,我气急败坏地抄近路赶往学校。
河上的冰看上去还没融化,我三步并作两步冲上冰面。
刚刚走到河中央,突然,脚下的冰面塌落了,我的两条腿踏进了冷入骨髓的河水里。
②教室供暖不足,平常就十分阴冷,我穿着湿透的棉裤坐在椅子上,全身仿佛都麻木了,我沉默地挺着,脸和唇都变成了青紫色。
③中午回到家,母亲很惊讶,却什么也没问,只是让我裹着被子坐在烧得热热的炕头上暖着,她蹲在火炉前为我烘烤棉裤。
炉火灼灼,不时爆出响声来,而母亲却始终一言不发。
当母亲把烘干的棉裤交给我时,眼圈有些红肿,不知是被炉火烤的,还是刚刚哭过。

Where is that noise ing from? Not sure? Try living with your eyes closed for a few years. Blind people are better at locating sounds than people who can see, a new study says, without the benefits of vision the ears seem to work much better.Previous studies have shown that blind people are better than others at reaching out and touching the sources of sounds that are close by. Researchers from the University of Montreal wanted to see if blind people were also better at locating sounds that are far away. Twenty-three blind people participated in the study. All had been sightless for at least 20 years. Fourteen of them had lost their vision before age 11. The rest went blind after age 16. The experiment also included 10 people who could see but were wearing blind-folds.In one task, volunteers had to pick the direction of a sound ing from about 3 metres away. When the sound was in front of them or slightly off center in front, both groups performed equally well.When sounds came from the side or the back, however, the blind group performed much better than the blindfolded group. The participants who had been blind since childhood did slightly better than those wholost their sight later.Recognizing the locations of distant sounds can be a matter of life-or-death for blind people,say the researchers. Crossing the street, for instance, is much harder when you can’t see the cars ing.Still, the researchers were surprised by how well the blind participants did, especially those who wentblind after age 16. In another experiment, the scientists also found that parts of the brain that normally deal with visual information became active in locating sound in the people who were blind by age 11. These brain parts didn’t show sound-location activity in the other group of blind people or in the sighted people. The scientists now want to learn more about the working of brains of “late-onset” blind people.36. The recent study shows blind people are better at telling ________________.A. The sources of loud sounds.B. the locations of distant soundsC. the direction of sharp soundsD. the distance of a sound in front of them37. Which would be a proper title for the passage?A. A Research on Blind PeopleB. Where is That Noise Coming from?C. Hearing Better in the DarkD. What If Living Without Your Eyes?38. If people were asked to tell the direction of a sound from the side, who would perform best?A. Those who are blind.B. Those who have gone blind since children.C. Those who went blind at age 16.D. Those who are blindfolded.39. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Whether to be able to locate the sounds can be of vital importance for the blind.B. All the volunteers in the experiment are sightless.C. All the participants did equally well when picking sounds from whatever direction.D. The later people bee blind, the better they can perform in telling the direction of sounds.40. What do we know about that parts of brain dealing with visual information are active in locating sounds?A. This happens in almost all the testers.B. This only occurs in the people who were blind after age 16.C. It remains nothing new to the scientists any more.D. It remains a mystery why it is so.。
