高考英语阅读题新闻报道类练习题
曹姗（2012年安徽英语状元）
英语要大声朗读，我基本上每天早起读英语或新概念，朗读是一个培养语感的好办法，有助于在解题没有明确依据的情况下提高答案正确率。
坚持阅读训练，达到英语能力和应试能力的统一需要做一定量的题目，尤其是阅读和完形的成绩的提高需要一个过程，不会立杆见影，一定要有毅力和耐心同时要会总结。我从高二起每天做两篇阅读一篇完形，做完后仔细思考做错的题，思维有什么偏差，出题者到底想考什么，逐渐使自己的思路接近命题者。
高考英语阅读题:阅读新闻报道类短文注意六个个方面
在高考阅读理解中屡屡出现，已经引起了我们师生的注意。我们考生在阅读新闻报道类短文时，应该注意以下几个方面：
一、如果有标题的话，要重视新闻报道文章的标题
标题通常点明短文的主题思想，例如：通过某文的标题Old Computers Make for Unhappy Workers Survey说明本篇报道的主题就是陈旧电脑设备导致工人不满，并告知读者这是一份调查报告。但是高考试卷中的大部分新闻报道都会有意识地删掉标题，以考查考生对主题思想的归纳概括能力。
二、重视对新闻报道文章导语部分
由于高考试卷中的大部分新闻报道短文都会有意识地删掉标题，因此全文的主题和论点这时必须通过理解和分析导语部分来获得。考生可以从导语部分的开头来了解该新闻报道的来源和时间，如通过本文开头Beijing 读者可以了解到该篇报道是由中国国内报道的。如果是New Yoke ，那么考生就会知道这篇报道是来自于美国方面的报道。因此考生要想掌握新闻报道的主题或论点概况，必须仔细阅读导语。导语(1ead)就是指新闻报道的第一段或第一、二段(例如上文的第一段)，它是新闻报道最基本内容的概括和浓缩，它通常反映新闻报道的主题或论点。
三、重视每个段落的链接
新闻报道通常结构看似比较松散，而实际上并非如此。新闻报道的正文主要对导语部分所提供的主题信息的相关细节进行叙述或议论。新闻报道在叙述或议论过程中其正文部分往往由很多短小的段落组成，但是这些短小的段落确是按照一定的时间、逻辑或空间等顺序进行展开，环环相扣，因此结构仍然很紧密。
四、重视新闻报道文章的阅读方法
英文报刊的新闻报道和中文报刊一样，都在真实的原则下，力求简洁生动，有吸引力，能快而准地给读者提供信息，传达时事为此，作者往往开门见山，将一则消息的主要内容浓缩在第一段里，使读者一看就能略知此新闻报道的主题思想。所以说新闻报道的第一段是全文的精华和缩影，我们必须重视对该段的阅读和分析。·
五、重视和熟悉新闻英语的常用短词
由于报刊的篇幅有限，新闻报道在词汇的使用上也力求删繁就简，即以短词取代长词，其用词强调简明扼要，切中要害。新闻标题中常见的缩写词主要有三种：
1.组织机构的简称，如CPC中国共产党，CPPCC中国人民政治协商会议，UNESCO联合国教科文组织，EEC欧洲经济共同体，NATO北大西洋公约组织，OPEC石油输出国组织，IRA爱尔兰共和军。
2.表示职务或职业特征的各种人物名称，如MP国会议员，VIP重要人物，DJ无线
电唱片音乐节，目广播员。
3.某些大家熟悉的事物名称，如TB肺结核，DJI道琼斯指数，UFO飞碟(不明飞行物体)，USO不明潜水物体。此外，新闻标题还广泛使用简缩词，即通过“截短法”或“缩短法”构成的截头;去尾或把两个词各取一部分合在一起而构成的短词。
六、重视新闻报道分类阅读理解指导
1.记叙类的新闻报道阅读理解指导
对于记叙类的新闻报道，考生应在了解短文主题思想的前提下，认真阅读和分析新
闻报道的正文部分，从中了解到何人、何事、何时、何处、何因以及方式等六大要素以及这些要素的变化和发展情况，从而对整个事件有个详尽的认识和理解。高考对记叙类的新闻报道阅读理解的命题主要考查考生对细节理解和分析能力，通常从报道细节进行命题，如事实理解与判断、因果方式判断、语序排列判断等，偶然也有全文或段落主题归纳、写作目的判断等。
2.议论类的新闻报道阅读理解指导
对于议论类的新闻报道，考生首先应对新闻报道的导语部分准确分析把握它的核心论点，然后对新闻报道的主体部分认真阅读和分析，明确作者的观点和态度或其中主要人物的观点与态度，弄清短文为支持论点(或分论点)所提供的各个论据及其逻辑关系;梳理短文所提供的各种数据;如果是辩论类新闻报道，考生还要分析正方观点、反方观点及其相应的论据。
3.说明类的新闻报道阅读理解指导
对于说明类的新闻报道，考生首先弄清该篇新闻报道说明或介绍的主体是什么，然后再从主体部分了解主体事物的起源、结构、性能、特征、历史变迁、发展前景、社会影响等。【高考预测一】

Passage 3(’02·京、皖、蒙·春季·E篇)
Sometime today—perhaps several times—Dick Winter will think about the 19-year-old who saved his life.
Because of this young man, Winter enjoys things like friendships, colours and laughter every day.
The young man saved Winter's life by signing an organ donor card(器官捐献卡). “I can't say thank you enough,” Winter said yesterday at a news conference marking the tenth anniversary of the Multi Organ Transplant program at Toronto General Hospital.
What Winter knows of the 19year old who saved his life is only that he died in a car accident and that his family was willing to honour his wishes and donate his organs for transplantation.
His liver(肝脏) went to Winter, who was dying from liver trouble. “Not a day goes by that I don't think of what a painful thing it must have been for them，”Winter said yesterday.
“They are very, very special people.”
Winter, 63, is fitter now than he was 10 years ago, when he got the transplant. He has five medals from the 1995 World Transplant Games in swimming and hopes to collect some more next year in Japan.
“At one time, we were probably strange people in the eyes of other people. Now it's expected you should be able to go back and do everything you did before, only better.”
The biggest change for Winter, however, isn't that he has become a competitive athlete. The biggest change is how deeply he appreciates every little thing about his life now.
“I have no time for arguments,” said Winter.
“You change everything. Material things don't mean as much. Friendships mean a lot.”
Also at yesterday's news conference was Dr Gray Levy, Winter's doctor.
Levy said he has bitter sweet feelings when he looks at Winter and hears of his athletic exploits.
Levy knows that for every recipient(接受者) like Winter, there are several others who die even though they could be saved because there aren't enough donated organs.
“For every Mr Winter,we have five to 10 people that will never be given the chance that Mr Winter was given，” Levy said.
Levy said greater public awareness and more resources are needed. He noted that in Spain and the United States, hospitals receive 10,000 per donor to cover the costs of the operating room, doctors, nurses and teams to work with the donors' families.
1.Which of the following is true about the 19-year-old?
A.He died of liver trouble.
B.He got wounded in a battle.
C.He was willing to donate his organs.
D.He became a recipient of a prize.
2.What do we learn about Dick Winter?
A.He is becoming less competitive now.
B.He is always thinking about his early life.
C.He knows all about the young man and his family.
D.He values friendships more than material things.
3.Dr Levy would agree that ________.
A.Spanish hospitals have more favorable conditions for organ transplant
B.the Canadian public have realised the importance of organ donation
C.Spanish hospitals received more money from the donors
D.Canadian hospitals now have enough donated organs
4.What's the author's purpose in writing this article?
A.The public should give more support to organ transplant.
B.Transplant patients are thankful for the help they receive.
C.Transplant can change a patient's life greatly.
D.It is not easy to get organs for transplant.
Passage 4(’01·上海·C篇)
Britain's oldest man made his first visit to London yesterday at the age of 110. Mr John Evans had never found the time or the money—to make the trip from his home near Swansea. But, when British Rail offered him an all expenses paid birthday trip to the capital, he just could not refuse.
Until yesterday he had never been far from home, except for one trip to Aberdeen. Mr Evans, who spent 60 years working as a miner in South Wales, almost made the journey to London once before, at the turn of the century.“There was a trip to the White City but it was ten shillings (1 shilling=1/20 pound) return from Swansea—too much I thought. All my money went to the family then，” he said.
During the next two days Mr Evans will be taken on a whistle stop tour of London to see the sights. Top of his list is a visit to the Houses of Parliament(国会).
The only arrangement he does not care for is the wheelchair provided to move him about if he gets tired.“I don't like the chair business—people will so think I am getting old，” he said.
His secret for a long and healthy life has been well publicized—no alcohol, no cigarette and no anger. Before setting off from Swansea with his 76-year-old son, Amwel, he quipped, “I'm glad to see they've given me a return ticket.”

Thousands of people got stuck in lifts. Martin Saltzman spent three hours between the 21st and 22nd floors of the Empire State Building. “There were twelve of us. But no one panicked.

The zoos had their problems like everyone else. Keepers worked through the night. They used blankets to keep flying squirrels and small monkeys warm. While zoos had problems keeping warm, supermarkets had problems keeping cool.“All of our ice cream and frozen foods melted,” said the manager of a store in downtown Manhattan.“They were worth $50,000.”
The big electric clock in the lobby(大厅)of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in downtown Manhattan started ticking(滴答) again at 5:25 this morning. It was almost on time.

高考英语二轮复习：阅读——新闻报道类(含答案)
高中英语阅读——新闻报道类 1、NEW YORK－Australian mining enterprise Clive Palmer on Tuesday unveiled(公布)blueprints for TitanicⅡ, a modern copy of the doomed ocean liner, although he didn't call the ship unsinkable any more. The ship will largely recreate the design and decoration of the fabled original, with some modifications to keep it in line with current safety rules and shipbuilding practices, and the addition of some modern comforts such as air conditioning, Palmer said at a press conference in New York. The three passenger classes, however, will be prevented from mingling(混杂), as in 1912, Palmer said. “I'm not too superstitious(迷信的).”Palmer said when asked whether recreating a ship bestknown for sinking was tempting fate. White Star Line, the operator of the original ship, had said the Titanic was designed to be unsinkable. About 1, 500 people died on Titanic’s maiden voyage in 1912 from Southampton to New York after the ship collided with an iceberg in the North Atlantic. Palmer, who created the company Blue Star Line last year, refused to make a similar boast. “Anything will sink if you put a hole in it, ” Palmer said. “I think it would be very cavalier to say it.” Unlike the original, TitanicⅡwill have more than enough space in its lifeboats for every person on board and will have additional escape staircases. Markku Kanerva, sales director at Deltamarin, the Finnish company designing the ship, said it would be the “safest cruise ship in the world”． Palmer refused to answer questions about the project's cost. Although the Titanic was the world's largest ship in her time, she would be smaller than many of today's modern cruise ships. “It’s not about the money，” Palmer said. “I've got enough money for it. I think that’s all that matters.” Forbes estimated Palmer's net worth to be $795 million in 2012.He

2022大庆市二轮高考英语：新闻类阅读理解选练(3)及答案
2022大庆市二轮高考英语：新闻类阅读理解选练（3）及答案 黑龙江省大庆市喇中2022高考英语阅读练习——新闻报道类 The Great Fire of London started in the very early hours of September 2 ，1666. In four days it destroyed more than three-quarters of the old city, where most of the houses were made of wood and close together. Over one hundred people became homeless, but only a few lost their lives. The fire started on Sunday morning in the house of the King's baker (面包师) in Pudding Lane. The baker, with his wife and family, was able to get out through a window into the roof. A strong wind blew the fire from the bakery into a small hotel next door. Then it spread quickly into Thames Street. That was the beginning. By eight o'clock three hundred houses were on fire. On Monday nearly a kilometer of the city was burning along the River Thames. Tuesday was the worst day. The fire destroyed many well-known buildings, old St Paul's and the Guildhall among them. Samuel Pepys, the famous writer, wrote about the fire, "People threw their things into the river. Many poor people stayed in their houses until the last moment. Birds fell out of the air because of the heat." The fire stopped only when the King finally ordered people to destroy hundreds of buildings in the path of the fire. With nothing left to burn, the fire became weak and finally died out. After the fire, Christopher Wren, the architect (建筑师), wanted a city with wider streets and fine new houses of stone. In fact, the streets are still narrow, but he did build more than fifty churches, among them the new St Paul's. The fire caused great pain and loss, but after it London was a better place: a city for the future and not just of the past. 【小题1】It seems that the writer of the text was most sorry for the fact that _____. A．some people lost their lives B．the birds in the sky were killed by the fire C．many famous buildings were destroyed D．the King's bakery was burned down 【小题2】Why did the writer cite (引用) Samuel Pepys? A．To give the reader a clearer picture of the fire. B．Because Pepys also wrote about the fire. C．To show that poor people suffered most. D．Because Pepys was among those putting out the fire. 【小题3】How was the fire put out according to the text? A．The King and his soldiers came to help. B．All the houses made of wood in the city were destroyed. C．People managed to get enough water from the river. D．Houses standing in the direction of the fire were pulled down. 【2021高考复习】阅读理解 Most people watching Jeremy Lin these past two months saw Jeremy Lin，New York Knicks star；but I，watching him，saw someone else.That was my elder brother，Bob，who is athletic and energetic.He could never sit still when he was in second grade；he had to get up every now and then and run around the room.And sure enough，he grew up to be a starting player for an NCAA championship lacrosse (长曲棍球) team.He was a Nike-endorsed marathoner，too，and reached the top of Mt.Everest，unguided，in his 50s. And yet my family never watched his lacrosse games.We did watch some of his marathons，but that wasn’t until he was in his 20s.When Bob was in his glory days，our Shanghainese-born parents were bent on getting him into medical school.There was a loving aspect to it：I can remember my father working through math books with him，lesson by lesson，at the big blackboard in the attic.Bob never did become a doctor，though；and neither did I．It wasn’t until my younger sister came along that someone in the family finally wore a white coat. Bob today could be the fittest 58-year-old on the planet.His doctor estimates his biological age at 35；he’s still big mountains in the Himalayas.And，like Jeremy Lin，he’s charming.No one sees Bob without leaving with a laugh.He sometimes jokes he could be mayor of his building，and it’s true.To know him is to cheer for him. And yet my parents did not cheer for him.What if my mother had sat on the sidelines with her statistics，like Jeremy

专题13阅读理解新闻报道及其它-2023年高考真题及模拟题汇编 2023年高考真题 Passage 1更新中 2023年名校模拟题 Passage 1 （2023·广东·广州市第二中学校联考模拟预测）For Lydia Koniordou, a famous Greek actress and former Greek minister of culture and sports, cultural preservation is essential to help people know who they are and learn what they should do in the future. “The taller you want to grow, the deeper your roots must be. Our cultural past is our roots. If we don’t have really strong roots and depth in our perception(认识) of our identity, we cannot grow. Without these roots, we will be torn out very easily with the currents,” she told the journalist in a recent interview, adding cultural heritage is in fact very much alive and relevant today. Speaking of her teaching experience overseas, Koniordou said she was very much impressed by her Chinese students when she gave seminars on ancient Greek tragedy at the Shanghai Theatre Academy in 2014. When the students worked on Alcestis, an Athenian tragedy by ancient Greek playwright Euripides, they thoroughly researched the costumes they would wear, the set, and the lights, among others, she recalled. “I feel they evolved and were transformed by this experience as I was transformed. They did not just play a role, but created a whole world and that is why the production had so much interest also for the spectators, ”she said. Koniordou participated in the production of Euripides Electra together with Greek director Kostas Tsianos. “Tsianos did something very important for Greek culture. He connected folk forms of art, folk dances, songs and poetry with our classical past. We presented this performance in many places around the world, and the feeling that it stirred in the audience was quite similar, even though they didn’t always understand the language,” she said. The Chinese civilization is a huge tree with very deep roots, and Greece also has a rich ancient civilization, she said, adding she believes that the two countries could promote cooperation and exchanges in many fields, such as in preservation of antiques. 1．What can we learn from paragraph 2? A．The importance of cultural preservation.B．Cultural heritage is easily damaged.
新教材适用2024版高考英语二轮总复习第2部分阅读能力突破篇专题1阅读理解专题模拟训练新闻报道类
新闻报道类 A (2023·安徽省淮南市高三一模) The world's top climate scientists of the IPCC have just released a landmark report, warning about the future of the planet．The headline—burning fossil fuels is already heating up the planet faster than anything the world has seen in 2,000 years． The IPCC is a U．N．body of 195 member states that assesses the science related to the climate crisis on behalf of governments every few years．This is the group that defines the scientific consensus．Hundreds of scientists work on a series of reports, which take years to produce．Governments have to sign off on them．And this one is just the latest big reassessment of the climate that the IPCC has done, but it's the first one that is done in eight years．It also has the clearest, most confident conclusions that have ever been seen in an IPCC report．According to the report, the greenhouse gases that we have already put into the air have warmed up the planet so far by almost 2°F compared to the pre-industrial times．This warming trend appears to be accelerating as the greenhouse gases accumulate in the atmosphere．And if we keep burning fossil fuels, by 2100—so within the lifetime of a child that's born today—the planet could be 5 to 7°F hotter．And one new thing in this report is that it tries to put numbers on what that means．So, for instance, they say heat waves so extreme used to only happen once every 50 years．Now they're happening almost five times more often．Extreme droughts could double or four times in frequency．In some cases, extreme storms could become three times more frequent and drop 30% more rainfall in a day． The scientists say preventing the worst effects will demand a U-turn away from use of fossil fuels．And it depends on us collectively．If every country, every business shifts away from burning gas, coal and oil over the next 30 years or so, we could probably limit this warming trend to a total of less than 3．5°F．1．What's the author's probable purpose of introducing the IPCC in Paragraph 2？ A．To make its work better known． B．To respect the scientists' commitment． C．To make the report more convincing． D．To appreciate its great achievements．
