2022高考英语重庆市阅读理解专项练习(1)及解析AWords:296难度系数:★★建议用时:6分钟With the start of the new semester,students around the country exchange their fun and fashionable clothes for boring school uniforms.“The uniform makes us look like a_bunch_of_clones,especially when we are doing morning exercises in the playground,”said Qing, a Senior 2 from a high school in Shanghai.“But we are not exactly the same from the top to the bottom.The boys wear different sport shoes and girls have different decorations(装饰品) in their hair.These are the areas where you can express yourself,”said Qing.Although it might be strange for boys to talk about fashion,they do care about what they wear in school,especially shoes,according to Qing.“Nike and Adidas basketball shoes,although they are still the must for many of my friends,are becoming out-of-date,”Qing added.He explained, “Since Liu Xiang ran so fast in Athens,running shoes are becoming popular in this Autumn.”“Still in fashion are the various baseball caps and American-style T-shirts with random English words printed on them,”said Qing.“The accuracy (准确性)of the written message isn’t important.Often, the words are misspelt.Sometimes they do not even make sense,” Qing said with a smile.Besides sports shoes and T-shirts, styles and colors of school bags are another opportunity for students to express their taste in fashion.Some bags are made more eye-catching by decorating them with small hanging dolls.Other fashionable items are the colorful drink containers which are now popular among girls this semester.As in China, the new semester in the US also brings new fashion trends: shirts printed with Chinese words, necklaces with Hebrew (希伯莱) or Hindi (印度的) characters, and Brazilian jewelry, are all common in schools in Florida, according to Carmen Domingues, a high school student.1.What does the underlined words“a bunch of clones” in Paragraph 2 mean?A.All of the clothes are the same.B.All of the exercises are the same.C.All of the clothes are different.D.All of the exercises are different.解析:选A。

2021高考英语阅读明白得基础全程训练(1)及答案阅读明白得About ten men in every hundred suffer from color blindness in some way. Women are luckier,only about one in two hundred is affected in this matter. Perhaps,after all,it is safer to be driven by a woman.There are different forms of color blindness. In some cases a man may not be able to see deep red. He may think that red,orange and yellow are all shades of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man see everything in shades of green—a strange world indeed.Color blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”.These help us see in a bright day and tell the difference between colors. The re are also millions of “rods”,but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shape but no color. Some insects have favorite colors. Mosquitoes(蚊子) like blue but do not like yellow. A red light will not attract insects,but a blue lamp will. In a similar way human beings also have favorite colors. Yet we are lucky. With the aid of the cones in our eyes we can see many beautiful colors by day,and with the aid of the rods we can see shapes at night. One day we may even learn more about the invisible colors around us.60. This passage is mainly about ________.A. color and its surprising effectsB. women being luckier than menC. danger caused by color blindnessD. color blindness61. According to the passage,with the help of the “cones”,we can ________.A. tell different colorsB. see in weak lightC. tell different shapesD. tell orange from yellow62. Why do some people say it is safer to be driven by women?A. Women are more careful.B. There are fewer color­blind women.C. Women are fonder of driving than men.D. Women are weaker but quicker in thinking.参考答案60----D A BAOne of the worst feelings you have as a professional athlete is the feeling after losing a game to a team that you should have beaten. That happened last night against the lowly Boston Celtics. They had only won 13 games the whole year and were really struggling. We had just come off a very good win against the Orlando Magic on the road and were feeling good about ourselves.The day did not start out good for us when we learned that T-Mac was going to miss the game with the flu. When you lose your best players (Yao, T-Mac) everyone must play a little harder and do a little bit more on the floor. We inserted Bonzi Wells into the lineup (he was the only one to have a good game for us), in place of T-Mac.It was a nasty game. We are usually one of the best three point shooting teamsin the NBA and we only made 1 of 22 three point shots!I have never seen that happen. Never! Rafer Alston, Luther Head, and me combined to shoot 5 of 33 from the field. Ouch! You aren't going to win too many games like that. Even as poorly as we shot the ball, we STILL had a chance to win the game in the fourth quarter but failed to make the winning plays that you must make to leave the floor victorious.In the locker room after the game, everybody felt terrible. When we play a bad game, we feel that we let our teammates down. There is a bad feeling in the pit of your stomach when you leave the gym and you just want to go home and not talk to anyone. It is a terrible feeling, but it is a feeling that makes you want to try harder and do better the next time.I'll talk to you guys later.Shane1. What is the passage mainly about?A. T o blame the team for losing the game.B. To tell the readers about the feeling after losing the gameC. T o explain why they played poorly in the game.D. T o blame Yao Ming and T—Mac for being absent from the game.答案解析:答案为B。

高考英语阅读理解(人生百味)专项训练及答案含解析

高考英语阅读理解(人生百味)专项训练及答案含解析一、高中英语阅读理解人生百味类1.阅读理解Experts note that an unhealthy lifestyle can put you at great risk of heart disease and stroke. So doctors urge us to eat healthy foods, get exercise, stop smoking and limit our alcohol intake. But there is something else you can do. And it is free and easy. Smile!Dr. Chockalingam, a heart disease specialist in Columbia, advises his patients to smile. He says a smile may be one way to help your heart. "When we smile, the brain wiring changes. The chemicals that are released are more positive." He says smiling is the first step in fighting physical and emotional stress and its sometimes harmful effects on human health. This is not just New Age advice. Several studies support his opinion.When you feel stressed or under pressure, your body releases many natural hormones (荷尔蒙) including adrenaline and cortisol. Adrenaline increases your heart rate and blood pressure. Cortisol is the body's main stress hormone. It increases sugar in the bloodstream. If you are truly in danger, these hormones can help you. They are part of what we call our fight-or-flight response. However, when we are stressed for a long period, these stress hormones are ever-present in our bodies. And that, medical researchers warn, may lead to health problems.Researchers say the connection between stress and heart disease is still unclear. However, they claim that when people are stressed for long periods of time, they may have an unhealthy lifestyle, which can lead to health problems.Dr. Chockalingam says a smile may be one way to help. He tells his patients to smile 20 times an hour. To some, that might seem like a lot of smiling. Or some might even feel foolish ... smiling for seemingly no reason. But a smile does not involve drugs. It is not invasive like a surgical operation. It is free and it has no bad side effects."Once people smile, they are relaxing. This relaxation directly lowers blood pressure, improves sugar levels in the blood. If we are smiling, we are breaking that link between stress and health." And it just may provide a little extra protection to everyone's heart health.(1)Which of the following agrees with Dr. Chockalingam's opinion?A.Smile has the same effects as laughter.B.Smile can be used to take the place of medicine.C.Smile is better than any healthy lifestyle to health.D.Smile can make our body produce beneficial chemicals.(2)What can we know about the mentioned stress hormones?A.They can lower our blood pressure.B.They will surely lead to heart diseases.C.They can benefit us when we are in danger.D.They will make us live an unhealthy lifestyle.(3)Why does Dr. Chockalingam think smiling is helpful to our health?A.It can make us relax.B.It increases sugar levels.C.It has little bad side effects.D.It can happen for no reason.(4)What can be the best title for the text?A.A Thorough Analysis of the Causes of Heart DiseasesB.One Thing You Can Do Right Now to Help Your HeartC.One Thing That Is Closely Connected with Stress HormonesD.The Clear Connection Between Unhealthy Lifestyles and Heart Diseases【答案】(1)D(2)C(3)A(4)B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,哥伦比亚的心脏病专家Chockalingam博士建议多保持微笑,他认为微笑可能是帮助心脏的一种方式。

Besides, the traditional method also uses a lot of water to control weeds as herbicides are costly and often do not distinguish between the rice and the unwanted weeds.Government scientists said the new rice varieties contain a gene that would allow farmers to spray a common, inexpensive herbicide without worrying about any side effects. “Our focus is very hi gh on new seeds that can be adapted to new conditions, especially in changing climates,” Modi said.Water conservation is likely to be the main attraction of the new rice varieties in India, where farmers rely heavily on the monsoon (季风) rain. The traditional method uses 3,000 to 5,000 liters of water to produce 1 kg of rice. The new varieties could cut water use by at least 50% to 60%, farmers and government officials say. “For farmers like us, the main concern was the management of water, and the new varieties take care of that concern,” said Ravindra Kajal, who grows rice on his 9­acre farmland in the northern state of Haryana. India is the world's second­largest rice producer after China.7.Which is the benefit of the new rice?A.It can produce herbicides.B.It can be planted in any field.C.It needs a lot of water to grow.D.It can save money for farmers.8.Why can farmers apply a common herbicide to the new rice? A.The new rice contains herbicides itself.B.The herbicide is suitable for all rice varieties.C.The gene in the new rice can avoid harm from the herbicide. D.The herbicide can distinguish the rice from the weeds. 9.What plays an important role in rice­planting in India? A.Water. B.Temperature.C.Wind. D.Sunlight.10.What is the best title for the text?A.India Launches New HerbicidesB.India Cuts Expenses on FarmingC.India Promotes New Rice VarietiesD.Farmers Appeal for New Rice Varieties[答题区]阅读理解题型分类练(一)A语篇类型:应用文主题语境:人与社会——历史、社会与文化——乘坐蒸汽火车到苏格兰旅行1.答案与解析:B 理解具体信息。

高考英语阅读理解训练100篇(1-10)高考英语阅读训练(001)You are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes (撞击) through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead!Of course he isn't really dead. With any luck he isn't even hurt. Why Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even catch fire, are professionals. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they perform are two sides to their work. They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress (床垫). Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar!But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntman' s success depends on carefultiming. For example, when he is "blown up" in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment.Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, for example, skied over the edge of a cliff (悬崖) a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落伞) failed to open, and he was killed. In spite of all the risks, this is no longer a profession for men only. Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous action. For nowadays there are stuntgirls tool1. Stuntmen are those who ______.A. often dress up as actorsB. prefer to lead dangerous livesC. often perform seemingly dangerous actions`D. often fight each other for their lives2. Stuntmen earn their living by ______.A. playing their dirty tricksB. selling their special skillsout of high windowsD. jumping from fast moving trains3. When a stuntman falls from a high building, ______.needs little protection?B. he will be covered with a mattresslife is endangeredD. his safety is generally all right4. Which of the following is the main factor (因素) of a successful performanceA. Strength.B. Exactness.C. Speed.D. Carefulness.5. What can be inferred from the author' s example of the Norwegian stuntmanan accident can occur to a stuntman.percentage of serious accidents is high.)must be of good quality.D. The cliff is too high.KEY: 1- 5 CBDBA高考英语阅读训练(002)activity which was almost unknown to the learned in the early days of the history, while during the fifteenth century the term "reading" undoubtedly meant reading aloud. Only during the nineteenth century did silent reading become popular.One should be careful, however, of supposing that silent reading came about simply because reading aloud is distraction (分散注意力) to others. Examination of reasons connected with the historical development of silent reading shows that it became the usual mode of reading for most adult reading tasks mainly because the tasks themselves changed in character.The last century saw a gradual increase in literacy (读写能力) and thus in the number of readers. As readers increased, so the number of listeners dropped, and thus there was some reduction in the need to read aloud. As reading for the benefit of listeners grew less common, so came the popularity of reading as a private activity in such public places as libraries,trains and offices, where reading aloud would disturb other readers in a way.Towards the end of the century there was still heated argument over whether books should be used for information or treated respectfully, and over whether the reading of material such as newspapers was in some way mentally weakening. Indeed this argument remains with us still in education. However, whatever its advantages, the old shared literacy culture had gone and was replaced by the printed mass media (媒介) on the one hand and by books and magazines for a specialized readership on the other.`By the end of the century students were being advised to have some new ideas of books and to use skills in reading them which were not proper, if not impossible, for the oral reader. The social, cultural, and technological developments in the century had greatly changed what the term "reading" referred to.1. Why was reading aloud common before the nineteenth centuryA. Because silent reading had not been discovered.B. Because there were few places for private reading.C. Because few people could read for themselves.D. Because people depended on reading for enjoyment.2. The development of silent reading during the nineteenth century showed .A. a change in the position of literate people~B. a change in the nature of readingC. an increase in the number of booksD. an increase in the average age of readers3. Educationalists are still arguing about _________.A. the importance of silent readingB. the amount of information provided by books and newspapersC. the effects of reading on healthD. the value of different types of reading material@4. What is the writer of this passage attempting to doA. To explain how present day reading habits developed.B. To change people's way to read.C. To show how reading methods have improved.D. To encourage the growth of reading.KEY: 1-4 CBDA高考英语阅读训练(003).In some ways, the United States has made some progress. Fires no longer destroy 18,000 buildings as they did in the Great Chicago Fire of 1871, or kill half a town of 2,400 people, as they did the same night in Peshtigo, Wisconsin. Other than the Beverly Hill Supper Club fire in Kentucky in 1977, it has been four decades since more than 100 Americans died in a fire.But even with such successes, the United States still has one of the worst fire death rates in the world. Safety experts say the problem is neither money nor technology, but the indifference(无所谓) of a country that just will not take fires seriously enough.American fire departments are some of the world's fastest and best-equipped. They have to be. The United States has twice Japan's population, and 40 times as many fires. It spends far less on preventing fires than on fighting them. And American fire -safety lessons are aimed almost entirely at children, who die in large numbers in fires but who, against popular beliefs, start very few of them.Experts say the error is an opinion that fires are not really anyone's fault. That is not so in other countries, where both public education and the law treat fires as either a personal failing or a crime(罪行). Japan has many wood houses; of the 48 fires in world history that burned more than 10,000 buildings, Japan has had 27. Punishment for causing a big fire can be as severe as life imprisonment.In the United States, most education dollars are spent in elementary schools. But, the lessons are aimed at too limited a number of people; just 9 percent of all fire deaths are caused by children playing with matches.The United States continues to depend more on technology than laws or social pressure. There are smoke detectors in 85 percent of all homes. Some local building laws now requirehome sprinklers (喷水装置). New heaters and irons shut themselves off if they are tipped.1. The reason why so many Americans die in fires is that _____.A. they took no interest in new technology|B. they did not pay great attention to preventing firesC. they showed indifference to fighting firesD. they did not spend enough money on fire equipment2. It can be inferred from the passage that______.A. fire safety lessons should not be aimed only at American childrenB. American children have not received enough education of fire safety lessonsC. Japan is better equipped with fire equipment than the United StatesD. America's large population leads to more fires(3. Which of the following statements is true according to the passageA. There has been no great fire in the USA in recent 40 years that leads to high death rate.B. There have been several great fires in the USA in recent 40 years that lead to high death rate.C. There has been only one great fire in the USA in recent 40 years that led to high death rate.D. The fire in Kentucky in 1977 made only a few people killed. KEY: BAC高考英语阅读训练(004).Nuclear power's(核能的) danger to health, safety, and even life itself can be described in one word; radiation(辐射). Nuclear radiation has a certain mystery about it, partly because it cannot be detected (探测) by human senses. It can't be seen or heard, or touched or tasted, even though it may be all around us. There are other things like that. For example, radio waves are all around us but we can't detect them, sense them, without a radio receiver. Similarly, we can't senseradioactivity without a radiation detector. But unlike common radio waves, nuclear radiation is not harmless to human beings and other living things.At very high levels, radiation can kill an animal or human being outright by killing masses of cells (细胞) in important organs (器官). But even the lowest levels can do serious damage. There is no level of radiation that is completely safe. If the radiation does not hit anything important, the damage may not be significant. This is the case when only a few cells are hit, and if they are killed outright. Your body will replace the dead cells with healthy ones. But if the few cells are only damaged, and if they reproduce themselves, you may be in trouble. They reproduce themselves in an unusual way. They can grow into cancer. Sometimes this does not show up for many years. This is another reason for some of the mystery about nuclear radiation. Serious damage can be done without the knowledge of the person at the time that damage has occurred. A person can be irradiated(放射治疗) and feel fine, then die of cancer five, ten, or twenty years later as a result. Or a child can be born weak or easy to get serious illness as a result of radiation absorbed by its grandparents.Radiation can hurt us. We must know the truth.1. According to the passage, the danger of nuclear power lies in __________.A. nuclear mysteryB. radiation detectionC. radiation levelD. nuclear radiation(2. Radiation can lead to serious results even at the lowest level ________.A. when it kills few cellsB. if it damages few cellsC. though the damaged cells can repair themselvesD. unless the damaged cells can reproduce themselves3. Radiation can hurt us in the way that it can _____.A. kill large numbers of cells in main organs so as to cause death immediatelyB. damage cells which may grow into cancer years later》C. affect the healthy growth of our younger generationD. lead to all of the above results4. Which of the following can be best inferred from the passageA. The importance of protection from radiation cannot be overemphasized (过分强调).B. The mystery about radiation remains unsolved.C. Cancer is mainly caused by radiation.D. Radiation can hurt those who do not know about its danger. KEY: 1- 4 DBDA:高考英语阅读训练(005)Today is the date of that afternoon in April a year ago when I first saw the strange and attractive doll(玩具娃娃)in the window of Abe Sheftel's toy shop on Third Avenue near Fifteenth Street, just around the corner from my office, where the plate on the door reads. Dr Samuel Amory. I remember just how it was that day: the first sign of spring floated across the East River, mixing with the soft - coal smoke from the factories and the street smells of the poor neighbourhood. As I turnedthe corner on my way to work and came to Sheftel's, I was made once more known of the poor collection of toys in the dusty window, and I remembered the coming birthday of a small niece of mine in Cleveland, to whom I was in the habit of sending small gifts. Therefore, I stopped and examined the window to see if there might be anything suitable, and looked at the collection of unattractive objects--a red toy fire engine, some lead soldiers, cheap baseballs, bottles of ink, pens, yellowed envelopes, and advertisements for soft - drinks. And thus it was that my eyes finally came to rest upon the doll stored away in one corner, a doll with the strangest, most charming expression on her face.

Thanks to modern technology, we have been able to increase greatly the efficiency of our work force. New machines and new methods have helped cut down time and expense while increasing overall output. This has meant more production and a higher standard of living. For most of us in America, modern technology is thought of as the reason why we can have cars and television sets. However, technology has also increased the amount of food available (有用的)to us, by means of modern farming machinery and animalbreeding techniques, and has extended our life span via()medical technology.!Will mankind continue to live longer and have a higher quality of life In large measure the answer depends on technology and our ability to use it widely. If we keep making progress as we have over the past fifty years, the answer is definitely yes. The advancement of technology depends upon research anddevelopment, and the latest statistics (统计) show that the united States is continuing to pump billions of dollars annually(每年) into such efforts. So while we are running out of some scarce resources (少的资源) we may well find technological substitutes (代用品) for many of them through our research programs.Therefore, in the final analysis the three major factors of production (land, labor and capital) are all influenced by technology. When we need new skills on techniques in medicine, people will start developing new technology to meet those needs. As equipment proves to be slow or inefficient, new machines will be invented. Technology responds to our needs in helping us maintain our standard of living.1. What is the best title for the passageA. The definition of technologyB. Modern technologyC.

Maybe you have seen pictures of these“fireworks”of nature. Sometimes when a volcano erupts, a very large wall of melted rock moves down the side of a mountain. It looks like a “river of tire.”Sometimes volcanoes explode, throwing the melted rock and ashes(灰)high into the air. But where does this melted rock come fromThe earth is made up of many layers(层). The top layer that we see is called the crust. Under the crust are many layers of hard rock. But far, far beneath the crust whose rock is so hot, that it is soft. In some places it even melts. The melted rock is called magma. Sometimes the magma breaks out to the surfacethrough cracks(爆裂声)in the crust. These cracks are volcanoes.Most people think of mountains when they think of volcanoes. But not every mountain is a volcano. A volcano is simply the opening in the earth from which the magma escapes. The hot magma, or lava as it is called, cols and builds up on the surface of the earth. Over thousands of years, this pile of cooled lava can grow to be very, very big. For example, the highest mountain in Africa, Kilimanjaro, is a volcano.

外刊精读:1写日记的好处导读:你喜欢回忆往事吗?你是否担心随着时间的推移会忘记过去的点点滴滴?不妨在忙碌间抽出片刻写篇日记,记录生活中的美好或失意。

本文讨论写日记带来的种种好处。

一、语篇泛读For many of us, a work diary is a practical thing. We use them for work to make a note of appointments or meetings, scribbling words next to dates to remind us of something we have to do in the future. But journaling is more about feelings. It’s a personal diary, often kept far from prying eyes, sometimes detailing our secrets and desires. But, when it comes to feelings, what are the benefits to writing things down?Sometimes it can be difficult to say exactly what we’re feeling. Because of anxiety or frustration, it can be tricky to put your problems into words. For some of us, putting pen to paper and jotting down our thoughts is a much easier process than saying them. But it’s not just about the ease of scrawling words. Writing things down can actually he lp us to formulate ideas, consolidate emotions, and understand our feelings. There’s something cathartic about making sense of something that is stressing us, annoying us, or getting us down. Writing a narrative of events or a series of words about what is on your mind can help you to focus, and is comparable to a form of meditation. And journaling isn’t just limited to words. Why not include squiggles, doodles or pictures of what’s happening in your life? Maybe the thing that is annoying you most could be best summed up by a caricature. In short, journaling is good for your mental health.Another thing to consider is that our memories fade over time. What is clear in our minds today may just be forgotten a few years down theline. Logging what’s happening in our lives could trigger memories when we read our diary entries back in years to come, or could act as an insight into our past selves. We can see our development, or be reminded of exciting flashpoints in our lives. The person who was annoying us and y ou drew a doodle of five years ago may now be a close friend, or something that you were once scared of may now seem funny.So, if you have something on your mind, it might be good to get things written down. And if something exciting happens, writing abou t it may help you to remember that wonderful time!二、词汇表三、测试与练习阅读课文并回答问题。

Today, 10 out of every 100 Americans are over 65. The aging of the population will affect American society in many ways — education, medicine, and business. Quietly, the aging of America has made us a very different society —one in which people have a quite different idea of what kind of behavior is suitable at various ages.A person’s age no longer tells you anything about his/ her social position, marriage or health. There’s no longer a particular year in which one goes to school or goes to work or gets married or starts a family. The social clock that kept us on time and told us when to go to school, get a job, or stop work ing isn’t as strong as it used to be. It doesn’t surprise us to hear of a 29-year-old university president or a 35-year-old grandmother, or a 70-year-old man who has become a father for the first time. Public ideas are changing.Many people say, “I am much younger than my mother or my father was at my age.” No one says “Act your age” any more. We’ve stopped looking with surprise at older people who act in youthful ways.1. It can be learned from the text that the aging of the population in America ________.A. has made people feel youngerB. has changed people’s social positionC. has changed people’s understanding of ageD. has slowed down the country’s social development2. The underlined word “one” refers t o ________.A. a societyB. AmericaC. a placeD. population3. “Act your age” means people should ________.A. be active when they are oldB. do the right thing at the right ageC. show respect to their parents young or oldD. take more physical exercises suitable to their age4. If a’ 25-year-old man becomes general manager of a big firm, the writer of the text would most probably consider it _________.A. normalB. wonderfulC. unbelievableD. unreasonable1. C 主旨题。

SHANGHAI—Health experts in Shanghai are calling for more protection for young children as the latest research shows about half of the youngsters are suffering from secondhand smoke.About 45 percent of children suffer passive smoking in families,50 percent in public places,and almost 6 percent on public transportation,shows a research released by the Shanghai Children's Medical Center on Tuesday.“Not only adults but also children and newborn babies are at risk for the adverse effects of passive smoking, ”said Tang Jingyan, a doctor at the Shanghai Children's Medical Center.“Actually, those young children whose bodies are still growing and developing are more sensitive to the effects of secondhand sm oke.”Research has shown that children who are exposed to secondhand smoke will suffer from more colds, coughs and sore throats,and they are more likely to suffer from bronchitis, pneumonia and will have a higher risk of developing cancer.Doctors even suggested that children suffering passive smoking are more likely to have behavioral problems and may not developmentally as quickly as their peers.Other research by the Shanghai Children's Medical Center has found that more than 80 percent of child patients in the center live in a smoke filled household, where one or both parents smoke.“Though doctors have stressed the harm of passive smoking over and over, it is still hard to reach a totally smoke free home, ”said a pediatrician named Zhang Yiwen, noting tha t parents are often tempted to smoke even though they have learned the harmful effects of secondhand smoke.China has 540 million people suffering from passive smoke,180 million of them younger than 15.The age of smokers is also getting lower, earlier reports said.“There are more young smokers than before.You can see young people wearing a school uniform and carrying a schoolbag light a cigarette on the street.Some of them are even female students, ”said Jing Xingming, a professor of children's development al behavior at the center.“Children like to imitate adults, especially their parents.If parents often smoke at home, it is very likely children will develop a smoking habit, which can cause a vicious circle,”Jin said.Reports from the Ministry of Health said China has about 350 million smokers, of whom 15 million are underage smokers.Also, around 40 million of the country's 130 million children aged between 13 and 18 had tried smoking, and 15 million had become addicted to tobacco.【语篇解读】本文主要说明了许多儿童目前受二手烟的影响,以及二手烟对儿童产生的危害。

落堕市安心阳光实验学校绵阳市2014高考英语阅读理解精品训练(13)及解析(2011·济南4月模拟,C)Just 25 years ago, the top three career hopes for young people in Britain were teacher, banker and doctor. Now,they want to be sports star, pop star and actor,according to a survey by the Guardian newspaper.Rachel, a character in the popular TV show Glee, may be said to speak for British teenagers. “Nowadays being nobody is worse than being poor,”he said.Emma Brockes, a reporter with the Guardian, believes it is “the bad influence of celebrity(名人)culture” that is to blame.“When children Wanted to be doctor, it wasn't because they were really more interested in the functions of human organs than they are now,they go where the respect is.” she wrote.It could explain why there has been such an increase in levels of anxiety and depression. Dr Carlo Strenger of Tel Aviv University, studied the sense of self for his new book The Fear of Insignificance:Searching for Meaning in the21st Century. He told the Daily Mail that young people now are “affected by the close connection to the global entertainment network, which has turned ranking and rating people according to wealth and celebrity into an obsession (痴迷) ”.“As humans,we naturally measure ourselves to those around us, but now we live in a global village. We are comparing ourselves with the most ‘important’ people in the world and finding ourselves wanting,” he said. Today, even high achievers constantly fear that they are insignificant when they compare themselves to success stories in the media.The way out? Simply stop measuring your achievement through a fantasy of wealth and celebrity. Dr Carlo Strenger said that it was a process called “active self­acceptance through a constant search forself­knowledge through life”.“The fear of insignifican ce can only be overcome through strong individual and cultural identity over and above measurable achievement,” he said.随着时代的发展,人们的追求在不断变化,在全球网络影响与日俱增的时代,成为名人成了人们追逐的目标。

(英语) 高考英语阅读理解专项训练100(附答案)

(英语)高考英语阅读理解专项训练100(附答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解Two of the saddest words in the English language are "if only". I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.My father is famous in our family for saying, "Take the extra minute to do it right." I always try to live by the "extra minute" rule. When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an "if only" moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding (衬垫) onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.I don't only avoid those "if only" moments when it comes to safety. It's equally important to avoid "if only" in our personal relationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they had foregone an opportunity to say "I love you" or "I forgive you." When my father announced he was going to the eye doctor across from my office on Good Friday, I told him that it was a holiday for my company and I wouldn't be here. But then I thought about the fact that he's 84 years old and I realized that I shouldn't give up an opportunity to see him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.I know there will still be occasions when I have to say "if only" about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it takes an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection, I know that I'm doing the right thing. I'm buying myself peace of mind and that's the best kind of insurance for my emotional well-being.(1)Which of the following is an example of the "extra minute" rule?A.Start the car the moment everyone is seated.B.Leave the room for a minute with the iron working.C.Wait for an extra minute so that the steak tastes better.D.Move an object out of the way before it trips someone.(2)The author decided to go to her office on Good Friday to ______.A.keep her appointment with the eye doctorB.meet her father who was already an old manC.join in the holiday celebration of the companyD.finish her work before the deadline approached(3)The underlined word "foregone" in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to ______.A.abandonedckedC.avoidedD.taken(4)What is the best title for the passage?A.To Keep Emotional Well-beingB.To Prevent "If Only" MomentsC.To Follow the Most Useful RuleD.To Achieve the Peace of Mind【答案】(1)D(2)B(3)A(4)B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文,作者认为英语中最悲伤的两个词语是"if only",因为他们表达了遗憾。

高考英语深度阅读系列训练1

高考英语深度阅读系列训练1

高考英语深度阅读系列训练第1课时编写说明学生在语篇限时训练中,对一篇文章没有足够的时间来细读,理解的不深不透,但是,对于选择答案的影响不是很大,读不懂的地方也可以猜出答案来,这样的训练叫做“考场式”训练;而在精读课堂上学习一篇文章的时候,从词句到篇章,从细节到主旨等方方面面,对一篇文章理解的很透彻,这叫做“精读式”的阅读。

目前,在语篇训练中存在低效问题,这是因为学生无意识地采用了“考场式”而不是“精读式”的训练方法。

但是,平时的语篇阅读训练毕竟不是在考场,除了追求速度,更要培养深度理解能力。

应该将“考场式”和“精读式”训练方法结合起来,在语境中学习语言知识。

本系列训练通过导读,突出重点单词、词块以及长难句的训练,旨在培养学生深度精读的习惯,训练有效处理语篇的能力,在阅读训练中积累语言知识,进而提高语篇训练的效果。

By day, Robert Titterton is a lawyer. In his spare time though he goes on stage beside pianist Maria Raspopova — not as a musician but as her page turner. “I’m not a trained musician, but I’ve learnt to read music so I can help Maria in her performance.”Mr Titterton is chairman of the Omega Ensemble but has been the group’s official page turner for the past four years. His job is to sit beside the pianist and turn the pages of the score so the musician doesn’t have to break the flow of sound by doing it themselves. He said he became just as nervous as those playing instruments on stage.“A lot of skills are needed for the job. Y o u have to make sure you don’t turn two pages at once and make sure you find the repeats in the music when you have to go back to the right spot.” Mr Titterton explained.Being a page turner requires plenty of practice. Some pieces of music can go for 40 minutes and require up to 50 page turns, including back turns for repeat passages. Silent onstage communication is key, and each pianist has their own style of “nodding” to indicate a page turn which they need to practise with their page turner.But like all performances, there are moments when things go wrong. “I was turning the page to get ready for the next page, but the draft wind from the turn caused the spare pages to fall off the stand,” Mr Titterton said, “Luckily I was able to catch them and put them back.”Most page turners are piano students or up-and-coming concert pianists, although Ms Raspopova has once asked her husband to help her out on stage. “My husband is the worst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every note, and I have to say: ‘Turn, turn!’ “Robert is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.”1. What should Titterton be able to do to be a page turner?A. Read music.B. Play the piano.C. Sing songs.D. Fix the instruments.2. Which of the following best describes Titterton’s job on stage?A.

The new rules will also establish a yet-to-be-decided maximum capacity.

The Making of a SurgeonHow does a doctor recognize the point in time when he is finally a “surgeon”? As my year as chief resident(进修医生) drew to a close, I asked myself this question 1 more than one occasion.The answer, I concluded, was 2 . When you can say to yourself, “There is no surgical patient I cannot treat competently, treat just 3 or better than any other surgeon” —then, and not until then, you are 4 a surgeon. I was 5 that point.6 , for example, the emergency situations that we met almost every night. The first few months of the year I had7 the ringing of the telephone. I knew it meant another critical decision to be8 . Often, after I had told Walt or Larry what to do in a particular9 , I’d have trouble getting back to sleep. I’d 10 all the facts of the case and, often, wonder 11 I had made a poor decision. More than once at two or three in the 12 , after lying awake for an hour, I’d get out of13 , dress and drive to the hospital to see the patient myself. It was the only 14I could find the 15 of mind I needed to relax.Now, in the last month of my residency, 16 was no longer a problem. Sometimes I still couldn’t be sure of my decision, but I had learned to 17 this as a constant problem for a surgeon. I knew that with my knowledge and experience, any decision I’d made was bound to be a 18 one. It was a nice feeling.This all sounds conceited(自负的) and I guess it is —19 a surgeon needs conceit. He needs it to encourage him in trying moments when he’s bothered by the 20 and uncertainties that are part of the practice of medicine. He has to feel that he’s as good as and probably bet ter than any other surgeon in the world. Call it conceit — call it self-confidence; whatever it was, I had it.1. A. at B. in C. on D. for2. A. self-service B. self-centered C. self-reliant D. self-confidence3. A. as good as B. as well as C. as far as D. as long as4. A. indeed B. maybe C. perhaps D. even5.

He just thought he would like something but not too much to do, and the news-agency was ready-made. The business produced little enough for him, but Bill was a man who only wanted the simplicity and order and regularity of the job. He had been a long-serving sailor, and all his life had done everything by the clock.Every day he opened his shop at 6:00 a. m. to catch the early trade; the papers arrived on his doorstep before that. Many of Bill’s customers were city workers, and the shop was convenient for the station. Business was tailing off by 10 o’clock, so at eleven shar p Bill closed for lunch. It was hard luck on anybody who wanted a paper or magazine in the afternoon, for most likely Bill would be down on the river bank, fishing, and his neatest competitor was five kilometers away. Sometimes in the afternoon-, the even ing paper landed on the doorway, and at 4 o’ clock Bill reopened his shop. The evening rush lasted till seven, and it was worthwhile.He lived in a flat above the ship, alone. Except in the very bad weather, you always knew where to find him in the afternoon, as I have said. Once, on a sunny afternoon, I walked home along the river bank from a shopping trip to the village. By my watch it was three minutes past four, so I was astonished to see Bill sitting there on his little chair with a line in the, water. He had no luck, I could, see, but he was making no effort to move.“What’s wrong, Bill?” I called out from the path.For answer, he put a hand in his jacket and took out a big, golden object. For a moment I had no idea what it could be, and then it suddenly went off with a noise like a fire engine. Stopping the bell, Bill held the thing up and called back, "Ten to four, you see, and this is dead right. "I had never known anyone carrying a brass alarm clock round with him before.5. Bill Javis became a news-agent when ________.A. he need the money.B. he decided to take things easyC. he was quite an old manD. he gave up clock-repairing6. Bill opened the shop so early in the day because ________.A. he liked to do as much as possible before he went to workB. the shop had to be open when the morning papers cameC. he was never sure of timeD. it was then that he did a lot of business7. On that sunny afternoon, the writer was surprised when he saw Bill because ________.A. he thought it was late for Bill to be still fishingB. he thought Bill was ill, since he was not moving at allC. Bill had not caught anything, and that seemed strangeD. Bill stayed in his flat8. From the information given in the passage, who or what do you think was wrong?A. The bell was; it must have gone off at the wrong time.B. Bill was; he had dropped off to sleep.C. The writer’s watch was fast.D. Bill’s clock was wrong; it was old.5. C 推断题。
