专题十六阅读理解之科普类说明文1.【2015·湖北卷】DThe oddness of life in space never quite goes away. Here are some examples.First consider something as simple as sleep. Its position presents its own challenges. The main question is whether you want your arms inside or outside the sleeping bag. If you leave your arms out, they float free in zero gravity, often giving a sleeping astronaut the look of a funny balled （芭蕾）dancer. “I’m an inside guy,” Mike Hopkins says, who returned from a six-month tour on the International Spac e Station. “I like to be wrapped up.”On the station, the ordinary becomes strange. The exercise bike for the American astronauts has no handlebars. It also has no seat. With no gravity, it’s just as easy to pedal violently. You can watch a movie while you pedal by floating a microcomputer anywhere you want. But station residents have to be careful about staying in one place too long. Without gravity to help circulate air, the carbon dioxide you exhale (呼气) has a tendency to form an invisible （隐形的）cloud around you head. You can end up with what astronauts call a carbon-dioxide headache.Leroy Chiao, 54, an American retired astronaut after four flights, describes what happens even before you float out of your seat,”Your inner ear thinks your’re falling . Mean while your eyes are telling you you’re standing straight. That can be annoying—that’s why some people feel sick.” Within a couple days —truly terrible days for some —astronauts’ brains learn to ignore the panicky signals from the inner ear, and space sickness disappears.Space travel can be so delightful but at the same time invisibly dangerous. For instance, astronauts lose bone mass. That’s why exercise is considered so vital that National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) puts it right on the workday schedule. The focus on fitness is as much about science and the future as it is about keeping any individual astronauts return home, and, more importantly, how to maintain strength and fitness for the two and a half years or more that it would take to make a round-trip to Mars.63.What is the major challenge to astronauts when they sleep in space?A. Deciding on a proper sleep positionB. Choosing a comfortable sleeping bagC. Seeking a way to fall asleep quicklyD. Finding a right time to go to sleep.64.The astronauts will suffer from a carbon-dioxide headache when _____.A. the y circle around on their bikesB. they use microcomputers without a stopC. they exercise in one place for a long timeD. they watch a movie while pedaling65.Some astronauts feel sick on the station during the first few days because _____.A. their senses stop workingB. they have to stand up straightC. they float out of their seats unexpectedlyD. whether they are able to go back to the station66.One of the NASA’s major concerns about astronauts is _____.A. how much exercise they do on the stationB. how they can remain healthy for long in spaceC. whether they can recover after returning homeD. whether they are able to go back to the station【解析】试题分析：这是一篇说明文。

中考英语专项练习题-科普知识类阅读

科普知识类阅读一．阅读理解（共15小题）1．What is your favorite food？We have a lot of healthy foods in our everyday life，such as milk，bread，eggs，fruits and vegetables．They can give you energy to grow．Before your body uses the food you eat，it has to change the food．That's what digestion means．Digestion begins with chewing （咀嚼）．You chew slowly your food with your teeth，the smaller the pieces of food become．After you swallow （咽下）your food，it will move to your stomach．Your stomach can stretch to hold the food．Special fluids （液体）come in and help to break the food into smaller and smaller pieces．The food stays in your stomach for a few hours．Then the food moves into the intestines（肠）．The first part is the small intestine．It is about 21 feet long．There，the food breaks down into nutrients （营养素）and your body can use them．Blood carries the nutrients to all parts of the body．Your body can't use everything you eat．Anything that is not used goes to the large intestine，which is 4 or 5 feet long and much wider than the small intestine．How to get rid of （去除）these？Go to the washroom!根据材料内容选择最佳答案．（1）Which of the following is healthy food？A．Milk and breadB．Eggs and fruits．C．Vegetables．D．All of the above（2）What does the underlined word"digestion"mean in Chinese？A．消化B．进食C．营养D．搅拌（3）Where does digestion start？A．In your large intestineB．In your small intestineC．In your mouthD．In your stomach（4）How long is the large intestine？A．About 21 feetB．About 26 feetC．About 31 feet．D．About 4 or 5 feet（5）Which of the following is NOT true？A．Your body can use everything you eatB．The longer you chew your food with your teeth，the smaller the pieces of food become C．Blood carries the nutrients to all parts of the bodyD．When you go to the washroom，the digestion is finished．2．You must think a computer is the best thing in the world，right？You must think it works at a super speed and can do everything？Well，it's not! In fact，the brain is much more powerful than any super computer! Think about when a glass is just about to fall off the table．Your brain controls everything that you need to do to save that glass from falling．No computer could ever come close to that!The brain weighs just 3 pounds，but is controls everything you do from thinking，learning，feeling even to breathing and your heart beating．Even though the brain is just 2% of your body weight，it uses around 20% of all your energy in your body．That is a lot for such a small organ（器官）．There are about 100 billion tiny，tiny little cells（细胞）in your brain．There are so many that it would take you over 3，000 years to count them all!Your brain stops growing when you're 18，but it actually keeps on developing and learning new things．So your parents are really super smart! You won't be able to fool them!Believe it or not，your brain NEVER stops working．Even during sleeping，the brain works for long﹣term memory establishment （建立）．It is realized that the brain is the second organ in the body as the heart that never stops during human lives．So everyone should be proud of such a gift of nature．（1）In Paragraph 1，the writer wants to tell us．A．eyes and muscles react quicklyB．the brain controls everything in your bodyC．the brain is more powerful than any computerD．the computer is the best thing in the world（2）In Paragraph 2，the underline word "That" refers to．A．the body weightB．2% of the body weightC．all energy in the bodyD．around 20% of the energy in the body（3）Which is RIGHT according to the passage？A．The brain keeps on developing during human lives．B．The brain doesn't work during sleeping．C．The brain is the only organ that never stops．D．The brain keeps growing during human lives．（4）In which magazine can we read the passage？A．Business Weekly．B．Science．C．Sports．D．Medicine．3．A 7﹣magnitude（震级）earthquake hit Ya'an，Sichuan at 8：02 on April 20，2013，and it killed at least 196 people and injured more than 11，000．Together with other students，Yang Xuelan ran out to the playground．She was safe．But all her textbooks and exercise books were buried（埋）in the teaching building．What can we do when an earthquake happens？In fact，there's little we can do to stop natural disasters （自然灾害）such as earthquakes happening．But，some methods can reduce the harm they cause．◆Drop down onto your hands and knees．This way can protect you from falling．◆Cover your head under a strong table or desk．You can also stay along a wall，andcover your head with your arms and hands．◆Hold on to（守住，抓牢）your shelter（遮蔽物）until the shaking stops．Beprepared to move with your shelter if the shaking continues．Schools can normally take the earthquake drills（演练）to help student stay alive．（1）When the earthquake happened in Ya'an，Yang Xuelan was．A．at homeB．at schoolC．on her way to schoolD．playing on the playground（2）What does the underlined word "reduce" mean in Chinese？A．提高B．阻止C．增加D．减少（3）According to the writer，we can to reduce the harm natural disasters cause．A．do nothingB．stay at homeC．take some methodsD．run out of the house4．Do you have a smartphone？If so，there is a good way for you to learn English：listening to podcasts（播客）!Podcasts are made by people from all over the world．You can find them easily on the Internet．There are all kinds of podcasts．Some are about music．Some are about interesting stories．Some are about language learning．Most of the podcasts are free，so you can choose what you are interested in and keep listening．The other advantage（优点）of listening to podcasts is that you can do it almost any time．You can do it when you are walking to school，or when you are running in the playground．You can do it even when you are going to bed．In this way，your English will improve a lot before you know it．If you want to improve your English by listening to podcasts，here is something you need to remember．First，do not listen to podcasts when you are riding a bike．That's too dangerous! Second，make sure the sound of your smartphone is not too loud．The loud sound is bad for your hearing．（1）The writer tells a way of learning English by．A．listeningB．speakingC．readingD．writing（2）We can fmd podcasts．A．in the bookB．in the libraryC．on the InternetD．in the MP3player（3）According to the passage，there is（are）advantages of listening to podcasts．A．1B．2C．4D．5（4）We should not listen to podcasts when riding a bike because it is．A．impossibleB．boringC．difficultD．unsafe5．People know the dangers of fires．It's good for a family to learn how to protect against afire．Here are some suggestions．Put a smoke a1arm（报警器）in the house．Smoke from a fire causes the alarm to ring．The alarm makes a loud sound．The sound tells everyone to leave the house at once．Make escape （逃脱）plans．They should know all the ways out of the house．If there is a fire，everyone follows the plan to get out．The most important plan is to check all the windows to make sure they can open them easily．Buy fire extinguishers （灭火器）in the house．Everyone in the family should know how to use them．Practice for a fire．They do fire practice because they teach children about fire safety．Everyone in the family should know the following fire rules：Don't open a hot door! The fire can grow more quickly if you open the door．Stay close to the floor! Smoke can be more dangerous than fire，The best air is near the floor because smoke goes up．What will you do if your hair or clothes start to burn？First，stop ! Don't run! The fire burns faster because of more air．Drop ! Fall to the floor．Then roll（打滚）! Turning over and over will make the fire go out．Put a blanket （毯子）around you to keep air away from the fire．There are many possible causes for fires．A clever family is ready all the time．If there is a fire，don't forget to call 119 for help．（1）When a smoke alarm rings at home，it means．A．You have to get up．B．Water is running to the floor．C．Someone breaks your window．D．Something is burning．（2）When a fire happens，if you open the hot door．A．the fire will go outB．the fire will grow more quicklyC．the door will soon be on fireD．the house will fall down（3）When your hair or clothes catch fire，you

Fire Extinguisher6．Choose the best answer（根据以下内容，选择最恰当的答案）In many countries，pets are well loved．In America，95 percent of pet owners think of their animals as family members．About half buy them birthday gifts．And it's a two﹣way street．People who have pets tend to have lower blood pressure．They also have a lower heart ﹣disease risk．Scientists are finding more and more evidence that animals can also help improve mental health．Some clinics have been using "pet therapy"（宠物疗法）alongside traditional medicine．Here is a look at some of the cures．RabbitsIn one study，scientists told a group of stressed﹣out adults to pat a rabbit and a rabbit toy．The toy had no effect．Touching the living rabbit，however，reduced anxiety（焦虑）．Crickets（蟋蟀）Animals don't have to be soft and lovely to help．In a 2016 study，elderly people who were given five crickets in a cage felt happier after eight weeks．The act of caring of an animal seemed to make the difference．HorsesHorses are among the most﹣studied therapy animals．In Europe，they have been involved in medical treatment plans since the 1860s．Activities like brushing the fur of a horsehave been shown to reduce anxiety in people of all ages．FishOne of the study focused on people who had Alzheimer's disease（阿尔茨海默氏病）．When they dined in front of a tank of colorful fish，they ate more．DogsChildren who struggle with reading are less anxious when they read aloud to a trained dog．Their attitudes change and their skills improve．（1）About of pet owners in America buy their pets birthday gifts．A．one﹣thirdB.50 percentC.95 percentD．three quarters（2）The underlined phrase "two﹣way street" （in paragraph 1）means "．" A．Pets can reduce not only their owners' blood pressure but also their risk of heart disease B．Pets can improve not only their owners' physical health but also their mental health C．Pets are well loved both in the East and in the WestD．People love pets，and pets do their owners lots of good（3）According to the passage，people who were given crickets felt happier after a few weeks because．A．the ate moreB．they spent time caring for an animalC．they exercised moreD．they changed their attitudes（4）Horses have been involved in medical treatment plans in Europe．A．since the 1680sB．for more than two centuriesC．since 1860D．for about 160 years（5）Children who have difficulty reading become less anxious when．A．they play with rabbitsB．they read in front of a tank of colorful fishC．they are given some cricketsD．they read aloud to a trained dog（6）The main idea of the passage is that．A．pets are well loved in many countiesB．pets can improve people's physical healthC．pets have been used to help cure mental illnessD．it is still a mystery whether keeping pets brings benefits7．Think of a simple object﹣a piece of chalk，for example．Are you remembering its name，its shape，its color or its size？Are you remembering what it is used for，or the sound it makes when the teacher writes on the blackboard？Scientists say that memory includes different parts of the brain，such as language and the ability of sense．They believe that you begin to create a memory when you notice something with your senses．Then，messages are sent to different brain cells，which join together to form connections．A new connection goes into your short﹣term memory．It is stored there for about 30 seconds，and then it is either lost or stored in your long﹣term memory．Having a good memory means making lots of connections and storing them in your long ﹣term memory．To do this，you need to keep your brain in good shape．Eat plenty of brain food such as fish oil，fruit and vegetables．Laughter also makes your brain more active．Also，don't forget to exercise．So do some sports or just move around a lot in the house．Finally，get plenty of sleep．This will make your memories grow stronger．When you want to remember new information，you must pay special attention．Use your senses﹣sight，smell，hearing and touch﹣and keep repeating the information．To do well in your exams this year，turn off the TV，silence your mobile，and review your work regularly．To remember something special，use your imagination to create visual（视觉的）connections．For example，you need to take a pencil，an eraser，your ID card and chips to your next exam．Imagine the ID card as the body of an animal，the pencil its long neck，and the eraser its head．Your animal is hungry，so now imagine it eating a bag of chips．It may sound crazy，but it's fun and it works．Another way is to do something different to yourroom．Turn a picture upside﹣down，or tie a sock around the door handle to remind（提醒）yourself of something to remember!（1）At the beginning，the writer gives an example to．A．lead in the topic of the articleB．show the importance of chalkC．let readers remember the wordD．make readers know his favorite（2）How many ways are mentioned to have a good memory in Paragraph 2？A.2B.3C.4D.5（3）The main idea of the third paragraph is．A．how to do well in examsB．how to remember new informationC．why to

apps．Thirty﹣one percent of teens get in touch with friends they have not met in person，and thirty﹣two percent have communicated with a complete stranger online．An officer named Pamela Casey in the US is helping children know more about smartphone dangers．Casey joined "CBS This Morning" to discuss the risks and how parents can protect their kids by changing the settings （设置）on their phones．Casey's interest in the subject began with a phone call from one of her friends whosedaughter had been taking inappropriate （不适当的）photos．"She said she found them in a vault app．The app is like a calculator （计算器）but you put in a certain pass code．It took you to a vault that she had hidden all these photos that she had been sharing，" Casey said．The mother told Casey，"You've got to tell everybody．"（1）How many American teenagers have their own smartphones？A．About 25%．B．About 30%．C．About 35%．D．About 75%．（2）Why did Pamela Casey join "CBS This Morning"？A．To discuss the risks and protect kids．B．To help children know about smartphones．C．To get in touch with friends．D．To warn kids about the risks．（3）What is not right according to the passage？A．Parents can protect their kids by changing the setting on their phones．B．Most teenagers have communicated with a stranger online．C．The daughter of Casey's friend had been taking inappropriate photos．D．Casey's friend found her daughter's photos in an app called vault．（4）What's the meaning of the underlined phrase "pass code"？A．地址B．密码C．通行证D．身份证9．3D printing is becoming more and more popular．We are now able to print things such as clothing，musical instruments and even cars．People and businesses are able to create the things they need very quickly and easily by using 3D printers．But can you imagine printing food？Some scientists are trying to change the diningexperience completely by doing this．They hope that having a 3D printer in the kitchen will become as common as the blender or microwave．Scientists say that they are easy to use：you simply have to choose a recipe（食谱）and put the uncooked food "inks" into the printer to make the food you want．This means that it would be very quick and easy to create tasty and healthy meals．Using 3D printers to create your meals would also be saving the environment．There would be less need for traditional growing，shipping and packaging steps as food production would be a lot quicker and better．For example，tree leaves and insects could be turned into tasty products! Printing food could also help people who have a swallowing（吞咽）trouble．They could program the printer to print softer kinds of their favorite foods so that they would not have difficulty swallowing them．However，some people think that a future of 3D﹣printed food would be a disaster．It could take away many jobs，including those for growing，shipping and packaging food．Imagine a world where there was no need for farming or growing crops and the same tastes and structures could be printed from an uncooked "food ink"．Traditional cafes and restaurants might lose business，too．Also，there are worries about the healthy value of printed food：is it really possible to get what we need from food﹣based "inks" or something like that？As we know，cooking and eating together with family and friends has long been a traditional and enjoyable activity．It is hard to imagine a world where the pastime of cooking is dead and meals can be created at the touch of a button．（1）The second paragraph mainly tells us．A．we can change our recipes by 3D food printingB．there are many ways of printing food on the 3D printerC.3D food printing has become very common in the kitchenD．some scientists are trying to make 3D food printing used widely（2）The writer gives the example in Paragraph 3 in order to．A．show us how 3D food printing worksB．tell us why we should use 3D food printingC．help us to know what we can use to print foodD．let us understand when to use 3D food printing（3）How many disadvantages of 3D food printing are mentioned from the last two paragraphs？A．Two．B．Three．C．Four．D．Five．（4）What is the writer's opinion about 3D food printing？A.3D﹣printed food is tasty and necessary．B．It is difficult to understand 3D food printing．C．Cooking food is more pleasant than printing food．D．It is happy to see the change of the dining experience．10．Every 14 days，another language dies．There are many reasons for this．Some people think more common languages have more economic（经济的）power．Because of this，young people choose to learn a common language as they think it is more useful．Another reason is that some languages aren't written down．Guujaaw is a leader of the Haida Nation，whose people have lived on the Queen Charlotte Islands，Canada，for more than 10，000 years．Their language is endangered．Traditionally，it wasn't written down，and，as a result，some people are worried that it will die one day．Guujaaw replies to this，"We talk to each other，listen，visit，and believe in the spoken word．Expressing yourself without writing is natural．" However，if Guujaaw's language and others like it are going to stay alive，writing may have to become part of their lives．When a language dies，a lot of knowledge dies with it．To begin with，language is a huge part of the culture of the people who speak it．Language allows speakers to say certain things：words that describe a cultural idea may not translate exactly into another language．Furthermore，many endangered languages have rich spoken cultures．Stories，songs and histories are passed on from older people to younger generations（一代）．Elizabeth Lindsey，a language researcher，emphasizes（强调）this．"When an elder dies，a library is burned，" she says．Also，language death affects our knowledge about nature．Local people often have a deep understanding of plants，animals，and the relationship between them．David Harrison，a researcher on endangered languages，reflects，"80% of plant and animal species（物种）have been undiscovered by science．But that doesn't mean they're unknown to humans．"Many languages are endangered．However，it's not too late．Children often grow up speaking two languages．"No one…becomes richer by giving up…one language to learn another，" Harrison said．If children feel both languages are important，they will use both．So，it is necessary that children realize how useful their local language is．（1）How many reasons are mentioned for endangered languages in Paragraph 1？A．2B．3C．．4D．5（2）What does the writer mainly tell us in Paragraph 2？A．How cultures are passed on．B．How cultures are discovered．C．Why languages are written down．D．Why languages are important to cultures．（3）The underlined word "affects" in the passage means ""．A．waits forB．depends onC．is different fromD．has an influence on（4）Which of the following is the writer's opinion？A．People need to use common languages more often．B．The spoken word is more important than the written word．C．Children are the hope to stop the local language from dying．D．Many animals and plants are in danger because of dying languages．11．Are You Right Handed or Left Handed？Which hand do you use when writing？About 8 to 15 percent of people are left handed．They often have to use tools that are designed for right﹣handed people．So it is difficult for left﹣handers to use most tools．If you are right handed，try this experiment：Take a knife with your left hand and try cutting a potato into pieces．Don't be surprised if you feel awkward（别扭的）．In the past，people thought it was strange to use the left hand．Young students looked down upon their left﹣handed classmates．Some children were even punished for using their left hand to write．But these days parents and teachers have accepted that．In almost every school in the world，left﹣handed students can use their left hand to write．What causes people to be left handed or right handed？Experts have searched long and worked hard on this．They concluded（得出结论）that left﹣handed people are left handed for the same reason that right﹣handed people are right handed．One out of every ten people just is a left﹣hander．It's simply like the color of our eyes﹣some people have brown eyes，while some others have black eyes．However，many researchers think that left﹣handers and right﹣handers are different in some aspects．Right﹣handers are more talkative and outgoing than left﹣handers．Many right﹣handed people understand spoken words better．For example，after they listen to directions to a supermarket，they can find it easily．Right﹣handers are good at organizing people，too．They are also better basketball guards．Just ask Yao Ming．Research shows that left﹣handers are creative and artistic．Many famous performers，like Jim Carrey and Paul McCartney，are left handed．Many left﹣handers learn better visually （在视觉方面）．In art，both Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo were left handed．In science，you find Newton and Einstein．The left﹣handed people are also really good at tennis and other single sports．If you prefer one hand，but you are still good at writing with the other，you are mixed handed．Research shows mixed﹣handers can remember everyday things better than other people．What did you eat for lunch two weeks ago？If you're mixed handed，you can probably remember．（1）If right﹣handers cut up potatoes with their left hand，they will．A．get hurtB．give up cuttingC．feel uncomfortableD．change their tools（2）What is Paragraph 2 mainly about？A．Causes of being left handed．B．Encouragement to left﹣handers．C．Punishment for using the left hand．D．Changes in opinions on left﹣handers．（3）According to the passage，right﹣handers．A．learn better visuallyB．are good organizersC．are better at single sportsD．give clear directions to others（4）From the passage，we can learn that left﹣handers．A．may be more talkative and outgoingB．are ordinary people like right﹣handersC．might remember everyday things betterD．no longer need to use right﹣handed tools12．An App for ParkingIs it very difficult for you to park your car when you go out？Don't worry．Parking Insider can help you．Parking Insider is a smart app with a mobile wallet．You can use it to help you park your car quickly and pay for the parking in a really short time．The app also invites users to earn free minutes of parking by taking pictures of free parking spaces．The app uses the photos to make a heat map．The map lets other users find open parking spaces more easily．If you want to use the app，you should be one of the clients（客户）of Deutsche Bank．As a client ofDeutsche Bank，you can have an account to pay for your parking through the app．You'd also need to drive Mercedes﹣Benz，a smart car or other Daimler products．To give better service，the makers of the app are trying hard to be partners with other banks and car companies．The app is very popular now，but it has to face plenty of competitions．Cities are making their own parking and paying apps．There are a number of companies already focusing on the issue，too，including Park Now and PayByPhone．（1）What is the Parking Insider？A．It's a car company．B．It's a mobile wallet．C．It's a smart app．D．It's a bank card．（2）What does the Parking Insider use pictures from users to do？A．To earn free minutes of parking．B．To give users better service．C．To make a map which helps users' parking．D．To pay for the parking through the app．（3）What should you have if you want to use Parking Insider？A．A map with pictures．B．Some pictures of free parking spaces．C．A new car made in America．D．An account at Deutsche Bank．（4）What does the underlined word "issue" refer to？A．Face plenty of competitions．B．Cities make parking and paying apps．C．Try to be partners with banks．D．Help peoples' parking with an app．（5）Where can you probably read the passage？A．In a history book．B．On a website of science．C．In a newspaper for students．D．In a book about singers．13．We often use some warning signals to describe how serious a meteorological disaster（气象灾害）is．For example，let's see how to describe the level of a snowstorm．Warning signal Meaning NoticeIt means the amount of snowfall reaches 4mm or more in 12 hours，or the snowfall continues when it gets to 4mm．It may affect （影响）people's daily life．Fight against snowstorm；Work of sweeping and melting the snow；Be careful not to slide （滑倒）．The amount of snowfall reaches 6 mm ormore in 12 hours，or the snow continuesto fall after it gets to 6 mm．It may haveeffects on people's daily life．The same as the first notice．The amount of snowfall reaches 10 mm or more in 6 hours，or it continues to fall after getting to 10 mm．It has a great effect on people's life．The same as the first notice and moreover，avoid unnecessary outdoor activities．The amount of snowfall reaches 15 mm ormore in 6 hours，or it continues to fallafter getting to 15 mm．It has a verygreat effect on people's life．The same as the third notice．（1）Which of the

2015年高考英语真题分类汇编：专题16-科普类说明文(含答案解析)

专题十六阅读理解之科普类说明文1.【2015·湖北卷】DThe oddness of life in space never quite goes away. Here are some examples.First consider something as simple as sleep. Its position presents its own challenges. The main question is whether you want your arms inside or outside the sleeping bag. If you leave your arms out, they float free in zero gravity, often giving a sleeping astronaut the look of a funny balled （芭蕾）dancer. “I’m an inside guy,” Mike Hopkins says, who returned from a six-month tour on the International Space Station. “I like to be wrapped up.”On the station, the ordinary becomes strange. The exercise bike for the American astronauts has no handlebars. It also has no seat. With no gravity, it’s just as easy to pedal violently. You can watch a movie while you pedal by floating a microcomputer anywhere you want. But station residents have to be careful about staying in one place too long. Without gravity to help circulate air, the carbon dioxide you exhale (呼气) has a tendency to form an invisible （隐形的）cloud around you head. You can end up with what astronauts call a carbon-dioxide headache.Leroy Chiao, 54, an American retired astronaut after four flights, describes what happens even before you float out of your seat,”Your inner ear thinks your’re falling . Mea nwhile your eyes are telling you you’re standing straight. That can be annoying—that’s why some people feel sick.” Within a couple days —truly terrible days for some —astronauts’ brains learn to ignore the panicky signals from the inner ear, and space sickness disappears.Space travel can be so delightful but at the same time invisibly dangerous. For instance, astronauts lose bone mass. That’s why exercise is considered so vital that National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) puts it right on the workday schedule. The focus on fitness is as much about science and the future as it is about keeping any individual astronauts return home, and, more importantly, how to maintain strength and fitness for the two and a half years or more that it would take to makea round-trip to Mars.63.What is the major challenge to astronauts when they sleep in space?A. Deciding on a proper sleep positionB. Choosing a comfortable sleeping bagC. Seeking a way to fall asleep quicklyD. Finding a right time to go to sleep.64.The astronauts will suffer from a carbon-dioxide headache when _____.A. the y circle around on their bikesB. they use microcomputers without a stopC. they exercise in one place for a long timeD. they watch a movie while pedaling65.Some astronauts feel sick on the station during the first few days because _____.A. their senses stop workingB. they have to stand up straightC. they float out of their seats unexpectedlyD. whether they are able to go back to the station66.One of the NASA’s major concerns about astronauts is _____.A. how much exercise they do on the stationB. how they can remain healthy for long in spaceC. whether they can recover after returning homeD. whether they are able to go back to the station【解析】试题分析：这是一篇说明文。

3年中考2年模拟阅读理解(科普说明)

中考在线（2015广州中考英语·B）Most of us probably live without vegetables, but a world without chocolate? Now that would be hard! According to chocolate makers, it could happen if we don’t act soon.There are two main causes of the chocolate shortage --- chocolate’s growing popularity and less production of cocoa, the plant from which chocolate is made. With more and more people in India and China loving chocolate, not much can be done about the first cause.Therefore, the only thing we can do is to increase cocoa production. However, new plant diseases and little rain in Ivory Coast and Ghana, the world’s largest producers, have reduced cocoa production by 40 percent in the past 10 years. What’s worse, many cocoa farmers in Africa and other cocoa-producing countries like Indonesia and Venezuela are changing to easier-to-grow crops such as corn or rubber. This way, the farmers can make more money.To prevent more farmers from changing, researchers at the newly opened International Cocoa Control Centre, in the UK, are trying to create new cocoa plants that are stronger and faster growing.First, each new plant is stored at the Control Centre for six months to make sure it is healthy. It is then planted in the Centre’s fields, studied and tested for another two years. Only after scientists are certain that they’re disease-free, will the plants be sent to farmers in West Africa or wherever else they are needed.51.The first paragraph tells us that ______.A. chocolate is healthier than vegetablesB. the world could soon be without chocolateC. people love vegetables more than chocolateD. it’s not necessary to eat so much chocolateA. Venezuela and Indonesia.B. Ivory Coast and Ghana.C. Indonesia and China.D. China and India.53.Cocoa farmers are choosing to grow rubber and corn because these crops ______.A. can make them more moneyB. need less rain to grow54.How long does it take scientists at the Centre to make sure a cocoa plant is safe to grow?A. 6 months.B. 12 months.C. 24 months.D. 30 months.55.What is one of the purposes of the Cocoa Control Centre?A. To introduce cocoa production to more countries.B. To provide more chocolate for British people.C. To produce stronger types of cocoa plants.D. To make sure that cocoa is healthy to eat.（2014广州中考英语·C）It is now well-known that people with problems such as heart disease or cancer live longer and get better more quickly if they have pets. Keeping pets lowers blood pressure and makes people less worried. Animals areincreasingly important in treating older people who have memory loss and other brain problems. These people often feel nervous and upset. Activities with animals help them improve their physical condition and also give them joy, entertainment and loving friendship.Here is a case that shows the benefits of animals. John was a six-year-old mute. He had no physical problems. He just refused to talk. His older cousin, Ned, has a parrot called Sally, and John used to visit it. When he arrived, Ned used to say, “Hi, John!”. We all know parrots copy what they hear. After a few visits, Sally began saying when John came into the room. Then, one day, John turned to the parrot and replied “Hi, Sally!” Staying with the parrot encouraged John to begin talking.Another use of animals helpers is in schools. In some cases, animals are used to help children with physical or personal problems. In other cases, they are used to teach children to get on and share with others, and even to teach them about animals.If you want to know more about animals helper programmes, you can get in touch with organizations like Riding for the Disabled or do a research under “animal therapy” on the Internet. You don’t have to be an animal trainer or a doctor to join in.56.Which is NOT mentioned as an illness that animals can help with?A. Heart diseaseB. CancerC. FeverD. Blood pressure57.The underlined word “mute” in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to “_____”.A. a person who speaks slowlyB. a person who does not speakC. a person who cannot hearD. a person who enjoys talking58.The purpose of Paragraph 3 is to________.A. show how animals can help with illnessesB. discuss the problems of keeping petsC. discuss how to train animal helpersD. introduce some new medical research59.How can animals help school children according to the passage?A. They can improve children’s memory.B. They can make children more popular.C. They can increase children’s blood pressureD. They can teach children to share with each other60.What is the best title of this passage?A. Be kind to animalsB. Talking to animalsC. The most dangerous diseasesD. Get healthy with animal helpers（2013广州中考英语·C）Furthermore, speaking a second language also allows people to experience other cultures and customs more effectively. Local expressions, vocabulary, and even jokes can have a powerful effect on a person’s understanding of another culture. So, knowing more than one language increases your knowledge of other cultures.56.What is the passage mainly about?C. The importance of learning English.D. How to learn another language.57.The passage begins with the experience of the Vieira family in order to_______.A. discuss the need for teaching a new languageB. introduce the passage’s main characters to the readersC. describe the advantages of moving to another countryD. show the problems of speaking only one language58.The underlined phrase “multi-language speakers” (Paragraph 5) means “people who know ______.”A. their mother languageB. a new languageC. more than one languageD. body language59.According to the passage, if you can speak more than one language, you can____.A. find a better jobB. make more friends60.Based on the last paragraph, which of the following is the worst?A. Not knowing another language.B. Forgetting one’s mother language.科普说明·解题技巧说明文一般会介绍某种事物的用途或类型、产生的过程或结果；也有介绍最新的调查研究，包括调查人员、调查目的、调查过程及结果等。
