2020年高考英语真题重点语法和题型分类汇编精讲第17题 阅读理解(原卷版)

第17题阅读理解The Japanese have always been at the forefront at deploying robots to perform jobs that are traditionally done by humans. Over the past year, humanoid robots have been seen helping customers at the Mitsubishi Bank and even filling in for human science communicators at museums. Therefore, it is not surprising to hear that the country has the world's first hotel that is staffed almost entirely by the Androids!The aptly(巧妙地)named Henn-na ("strange" in Japanese)Hotel which opened its doors on July 17 is located at Nagasaki's Huis Ten Bosch theme park.. It is the idea of Hideo Sawada, a Japanese businessman who is fascinated by the possibility of replacing humans with robots. His aim is to have this futuristic hotel be run mainly by the intelligent humanoids .Guests checking-in are welcomed by a family friendly English-speaking robot wearing a bow tie andbell-hop(侍者)hat. Though experienced at his job, he does request guests not to ask him "a difficult question "since he is after all," just a robot!"Those seeking a more" regular" experience, can approach the human-likeJapanese-speaking robot.When ready, visitors can request the robot "porters" to help carry belongings to their room. Those that need to stow away valuables can hand them to a helpful robot who will place them inside an individual safe box in exchange for a small fee. A one-foot-high concierge is available to provide information about the hotel's amenities, nearby attractions, and even order a taxi if needed.So how much does it cost to live in this crazy cool hotel? It depends on when you decide to go. During the low season, guests can get away with paying as little $ 60 a night for a basic room. However, during the peak season when rates are determined by an online auction, the price can get as high as $153.1. What is Hideo Sawada interested in?A. Making different kinds of robots.B. Taking the place of humans with robots.C. Setting up more hotels run by robots.D. Making robots more intelligent.2. From the third paragraph we can know thatA. the Japanese-speaking robot welcomes the guestsB. the human-like robot can speak Japanese and EnglishC. the human-like robot is better skilled at its job than the other robotsD. the English-speaking robot can answer simple questions3. The underlined phrase "stow away" most probably means "_______".A. purchaseB. changeC. storeD. replace4.What could be the best title for the passage?A. World's first robot-staffed hotel is open for business.B. Japanese tops the first in making robots.C. Robots can replace humans in Japanese hotels.D. The aptly named Henn-na Hotel at a theme park.阅读理解(二)Battling freezing temperatures, total darkness, and other dangerous flying conditions, a plane left the South Pole on Wednesday after rescuing a sick worker from a U.S. research base. After the patient and flight crew rest , the plane will make its way to South America , where the patient will receive medical care .The daring rescue mission(任务)began last week when two planes flew from Canada to Rothera,a British base on the Antarctic Peninsula. On Tuesday, just one of the planes left Rothera on a 10-hour trip to the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, where the sick worker was located.The station is usually unreachable during Antarctica's long winter, from February to October. Forty-eight people live at the base, including a doctor and a physician's assistant. But when the crew there determined the worker needed medical help that couldn't be provided on site, the emergency rescue mission began.A small crew, including a pilot, co-pilot, medical worker, and flight engineer, made the 1, 500-mile trip from Rothera in a Twin Otter plane. It is the only type of plane capable of flying in Antarctica's winter cold. It can operate in temperatures as low as-103F. The temperature in the South Pole on Tuesday was -73F In such conditions, an aircraft's fuel and even its batteries need to be warmed up before it can take off.The pitch-black sky and the threat of high winds and sudden weather changes make such flights extremely risky and rare. This rescue is only the third time an emergency mission has been made to the research base since 1999. The National Science Foundation, which runs the station, has not said who was rescued, or the medical condition of the person. The names of the crew members who made the daring flight have not been made public either .But according to Peter West, a National Science Foundation spokesman, the mission “went all accordi ng to plan”.1. Why did the plane fly to the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station?A. To do scientific research.B. To rescue a sick worker.C. To transport medicineD. To supply necessities.2. What do we know about the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station?A. It is a US research base. B . It is a British research base .C . It is a ten-hour flight from Canada . D. It is a medical centre on the Antarctic Peninsula.3.From the third paragraph we can inferA. the doctor there is not experiencedB. the base is lack of medicineC . the patient asked to be taken back D. the patient was seriously ill4. What could be the best title for the passage?A. An interesting flightB.A daring rescueC. Flying to AntarcticD. Patient receives medical care阅读理解(三)Though 3-D printing technology has been available for over three decades, it has not gone mainstream as hoped because of the high cost and slow printing speed . But that may change soon , thanks to German sports-wear maker Adidas. On December 15, 2016, the company revealed Adidas 3-D Runners, stylish sports sneakers featuring a 3-D printed midsole(鞋底夹层)that provides athletes with the extra cushioning(缓冲)needed for good performance.Unlike traditional midsoles, these are not uniform foam(泡沫橡胶), but web-like structures with varied density to take account of the impact areas of the foot. This means that the mesh(网眼)is thicker in the hoe's front and back, both of which hit the ground hard when the athlete runs. A 3-D printed heel, put into the midsole , eliminates the need for traditional gluing .Not surprisingly, the stylish, limited edition black training shoes that were only available for sale in New York City, London, and Tokyo and cost $333, were an instant hit and sold out within hours of their release. Though not affordable or available to the mass market , the shoes are an encouraging step in the right direction for more widespread use of the technology. Adidas is working on making additional 3-D printed gear, and as the technology develops and printing speed increases, the prices will start to head down.Being able to offer 3-D printed shoes at a low cost has the potential to change the shoe industry as we now it today. That's because instead of having to choose from ready-made sizes, customers will be able to customize footwear so that it fits their feet perfectly. The process would also be cost-effective for the manufacturers given there is no wasted material.While printing 3-D objects may sound complicated, the process is relatively straightforward. Once the design is downloaded to a printer, a laser creates a layer of material, usually plastic or metal. Successive layers are deposited above one another and fused together until the product is complete. The technology can be used to build everything, from shoe soles to a microwave oven. There is currently even an effort underway to make a printer that is large enough to create the cement layers required to build a house.1.3-D printed midsoles are different from ordinary ones in that_____.A . they are like webs with different densityB . they are made of uniform foamC. the meshes are larger than ordinary onesD. they are held together with glue2. From the third paragraph we can inferA. the shoes were well receivedB. the shoes were relatively cheapC. the shoes can satisfy the need of the marketD. the company can mass-produce the shoes3. What is the advantage of the 3-D technology used on shoes?A. It can offer shoes at a low price now.B. It can make shoes to your own measure.C. It can offer ready-made shoes.D. It can take the place of shoe factories.4.What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?A. What a 3-D printer is.B. How complicated the processC. How a 3-D printer works.D. What size a 3-D printer is.阅读理解(四)Nowadays food problems have become a big concern all over the world. Robert Mann, a 35-year-old engineer, prefers organic fruit which is delivered right to the doorstep and he is willing to pay for it. If this is not possible, he will go to the supermarket and spend the extra money buying organic food."I think organic product is always better, "Mann said."The food is free of pesticides(杀虫剂),and you are generally supporting family farms instead of large farms. And more importantly, it is locally grown and seasonal , so it is tastier . " Mann is one of the increasing number of shoppers buying into the organic trend , and supermarkets across Britain are counting on more like him as they grow their organic food business. However, how many shoppers really know what they are getting, and why are they willing to pay a higher price for organic product? Market research shows that people who prefer organic food can generally give their clear reasons for their preferences-but their knowledge of organic food is far from enough. For instance, small amounts of pesticides do little harm to organic product. And about three quarters of organic food in Britain is imported(进口)instead of being locally grown to meet the increasing demand."The demand for organic food is increasing year by year, so it is a very fast-growing market," said Bradford, a specialist in this line of business .1. Why does Robert Mann prefer organic fruit?A. It is delivered right to the doorstep.B. It is cheaper than common product.C. It is locally grown and seasonal.D. It is a kind of fruit without being polluted.2. What do the underlined words "the organic trend" in Paragraph 2 mean?A. Getting organic food anywhere.B. Growing organic food at home.C. Importing organic food from foreign countries.D. Becoming more interested in organic food.3. Why does Bradford say it is a very fast-growing market?A. There is an increasing demand for it.B. It is produced on large farms.C. It is free of pesticides.D. Its prices are reasonable.4.From which is the text probably taken?A. A biology textbook.B.A health magazine.C. A research paper.D.A travel brochure.阅读理解(五)Are you wondering whether punishment actually makes people cooperate ? A group of scientists carried out an experiment to figure it out and the results were pretty unexpected.In order to understand what they found, you have to know why these scientists were studying punishment. They were trying to figure out why people cooperate when it's often so easy to profit at others' expense. Why don't friends steal from each other ? Why do parents bother to feed their children ? If the answer to these questions is obvious to you , congratulations ! You are ahead of scientists . They're still trying to figure it out .In this experiment, researchershad 225 American students play a game, where if the students cooperated, they'd all get a number of points. But if one defected(背叛)and everyone else cooperated, the defector would get a lot of points, and the cooperators would lose out. This game represents a lot of real life situations where you struggle with a decision: work together and do OK, or run off with the rewards, ruining everybody else's day.As a matter of fact, this is a pretty ordinary economic experiment. But the researchers added two changes to see if they could mimic(模仿)the real world better. Change one: some students played many rounds together, so they'd learn who they could trust. Change two: people could punish each other, sacrificing a point or two to destroy another player's score.Finally, the researchers found that playing multiple rounds made people cooperate more, which definitely mimics human society. But the whole punishment thing led to a surprise: punishing didn't actually make people cooperate more . In fact , it made them cooperate less .So the scientists still don't know why people cooperate, though it seems that it has more to do with groups sticking together than it does with punishment.1. What does the underlined word "it" in Paragraph 2 refer to?A . Why friends don't steal from each other .B . Why researchers are studying punishment .C. Why people always profit at others' expense.D. Why people cooperate rather than take advantage of others.2. What happened to a defector in the experiment?A. He lost out.B. He benefited more.C. He got punished.D. He became the leader.3. What conclusion is drawn from the experiment?A. Punishing helps people realize their mistakes.B. Cooperating is a win-win policy to all.C. Punishment won't work as expected.D. People who choose to cooperate are selfless.4. What might be the best title for the text?A. Does punishing people actually work?B. Why is punishment applied to cooperation?C. How can punishment contribute to cooperation?D . What is the best way to make punishment effective ?。

第15题阅读理解Humans make mistakes. Even very experienced surgeons are not infallible. But what if these doctors could combine their knowledge with experience together and create a surgical standard of care, to be per formed by machines?That's the idea behind surgical robots, which may soon carry out most surgeries, from sewing up tiny wounds to performing heart procedures. Lots of these operations are actually already completed with the assistance of robots. However, a recent test suggests that robots in the operating room may soon go a step further, performing on soft tissue completely on their own, from the beginning to the end.The Smart Tissue Autonomous Robot(STAR) has succeeded in completing surgeries on pigs. "We're the first to test out autonomous robotic surgery with soft-tissue surgery, and when compared to standard operation, it's better," says Peter Kim, a professor of surgery."Our purpose is not to replace surgeons, but it will make the surgeons better and make the procedures safer."A recent Mayo Clinic study discovered that most surgical errors-including operating on the wrong site or side of the body, or even leaving tools or objects inside the patient-occur every one out of 22,000 procedures. Though that's rare, robots like STAR would aim to lower the number even further.In the surgical system called da Vinci, surgeons lay their arms inside instruments and use their hands to control the movement of robotic tools on the operating table from afar. Surgeons control the robot's every major move, and thus its results may vary based on the surgeon's training or experience.On the other hand, STAR is entirely autonomous. Not only is it able to work on its own and perform surgeries with a more flexible " hand " , but it's also able to react to the unexpected incidents . Cutting into hard tissue like bones is one thing , but operating on moving soft tissue is far more complex . STAR can respond to a changing environment , which is similar to how self-driving cars are programmed to not only drive on the high way, but also react to another driver who makes a mistake and gets in your way.1. What does the underlined word "infallible" in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Quite smart.B. Really creative.C. Rather responsible.D. Always right.【答案】D【解析】词义猜测题。

That willpower bore fruit when Jennifer graduated from University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and became the first in her large family to earn a bachelor's degree.Mauer, of Edgar, Wisconsin, grew up on a farm in a family of 10 children. Her dad worked at a job away from the farm, and her mother ran the farm with the kids. After high school, Jennifer attended a local technical college, working to pay her tuition(学费), because there was no extra money set aside for a college education. After graduation, she worked to help her sisters and brothers pay for their schooling.Jennifer now is married and has three children of her own. She decided to go back to college to advance her career and to be able to better support her family while doing something she loves: nursing. She chose the UW-Eau Claire program at Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield because she was able to pursue her four-year degree close to home. She could drive to class and be home in the evening to help with her kids. Jenifer received great support from her family as she worked to earn her degree: Her husband worked two jobs to cover the bills, and her 68-year-old mother helped take care of the children at times.Through it all, she remained in good academic standing and graduated with honors. Jennifer sacrificed(牺牲)to achieve her goal, giving up many nights with her kids and missing important events to study. "Some nights my heart was breaking to have to pick between my kids and studying for exams or papers," she says. However, her children have learned an important lesson witnessing their mother earn her degree. Jennifer is afirst-generation graduate and an inspiration to her family-and that's pretty powerful.(1)What did Jennifer do after high school?A.She helped her dad with his work.B.She ran the family farm on her own.C.She supported herself through college.D.She taught her sisters and brothers at home.(2)Why did Jennifer choose the program at Ministry Saint Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield?A.To take care of her kids easily.B.To learn from the best nurses.C.To save money for her parents.D.To find a well-paid job there.(3)What did Jennifer sacrifice to achieve her goal?A.Her health.B.Her time with family.C.Her reputation.D.Her chance of promotion.(4)What can we learn from Jenifer's story?A.Time is money.B.Love breaks down barriers.C.Hard work pays off.cation is the key to success.3.阅读理解In the mid-1990s, Tom Bissell taught English as a volunteer in Uzbekistan. He left after seven months, physically broken and having lost his mind. A few years later, still attracted to the country, he returned to Uzbekistan to write an article about the disappearance of the Aral Sea.His visit, however, ended up involving a lot more than that. Hence this book, Chasing the Sea: Lost Among the Ghosts of Empire in Central Asia, which talks about a road trip from Tashkent to Karakalpakstan, where millions of lives have been destroyed by the slow drying up of the sea. It is the story of an American travelling to a strange land, and of the people he meets on his way: Rustam, his translator, a lovely 24-year-old who picked up his colorful English in California, Oleg and Natasha, his hosts in Tashkent, and a string of foreign aid workers.This is a quick look at life in Uzbekistan, made of friendliness and warmth, but also its darker side of society. In Samarkand, Mr Bissell admires the architectural wonders, while on his way to Bukhara he gets a taste of police methods when suspected of drug dealing. In Ferghana, he attends a mountain funeral(葬礼)followed by a strange drinking party. And in Karakalpakstan, he is saddened by the dust storms, diseases and fishing boats stuck miles from the sea.Mr Bissell skillfully organizes historical insights and cultural references, making his tale a well-rounded picture of Uzbekistan, seen from Western eyes. His judgment and references are decidedly American, as well as his delicate stomach. As the author explains, this is neither a travel nor a history book, or even a piece of reportage. Whatever it is, the result is a fine and vivid description of the purest of Central Asian traditions.(1)What made Mr Bissell return to Uzbekistan?A.His friends' invitation.B.His interest in the country.C.His love for teaching.D.His desire to regain health.(2)What does the underlined word "that" in paragraph 2 refer to?A.Developing a serious mental disease.B.Taking a guided tour in Central Asia.C.Working as a volunteer in Uzbekistan.D.Writing an article about the Aral Sea.(3)Which of the following best describes Mr Bissell's road trip in Uzbekistan?A.Romantic.B.Eventful.C.Pleasant.D.Dangerous.(4)What is the purpose of this text?A.To introduce a book.B.To explain a cultural phenomenon.C.To remember a writer.D.To recommend a travel destination.4.阅读理解According to a recent study in the Journal of Consumer Research, both the size and consumption habits of our eating companions can influence our food intake. And contrary to existing research that says you should avoid eating with heavier people who order large portions(份), it's the beanpoles with big appetites you really need to avoid.To test the effect of social influence on eating habits, the researchers conducted two experiments. In the first, 95 undergraduate women were individually invited into a lab to ostensibly(表面上)participate in a study about movie viewership. Before the film began, each woman was asked to help herself to a snack. An actor hired by the researchers grabbed her food first. In her natural state, the actor weighed 105 pounds. But in half the cases she wore a specially designed fat suit which increased her weight to 180 pounds.Both the fat and thin versions of the actor took a large amount of food. The participants followed suit, taking more food than they normally would have. However, they took significantly more when the actor was thin.For the second test, in one case the thin actor took two pieces of candy from the snack bowls. In the other case, she took 30 pieces. The results were similar to the first test: the participants followed suit but took significantly more candy when the thin actor took 30 pieces.The tests show that the social environment is extremely influential when we're making decisions. If this fellow participant is going to eat more, so will I. Call it the "I'll have what she's having" effect. However, we'll adjust the influence. If an overweight person is having a large portion, I'll hold back a bit because I see the results of his eating habits. But if a thin person eats a lot, I'll follow suit. If he can eat much and keep slim, why can't I?(1)What is the recent study mainly about?A.Food safety.B.Movie viewership.C.Consumer demand.D.Eating behavior.(2)What does the underlined word "beanpoles" in paragraph 1 refer to?A.Big eaters.B.Overweight persons.C.Picky eaters.D.Tall thin persons.(3)Why did the researchers hire the actor?A.To see how she would affect the participants.B.To test if the participants could recognize her.C.To find out what she would do in the two tests.D.To study why she could keep her weight down.(4)On what basis do we "adjust the influence" according to the last paragraph?A.How hungry we are.B.How slim we want to be.C.How we perceive others.D.How we feel about the food.二、任务型阅读(共5小题,每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)(共1题;共12.5分)5.阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

第17题阅读理解The Japanese have always been at the forefront at deploying robots to perform jobs that are traditionally done by humans. Over the past year, humanoid robots have been seen helping customers at the Mitsubishi Bank and even filling in for human science communicators at museums. Therefore, it is not surprising to hear that the country has the world's first hotel that is staffed almost entirely by the Androids!The aptly(巧妙地)named Henn-na ("strange" in Japanese)Hotel which opened its doors on July 17 is located at Nagasaki's Huis Ten Bosch theme park.. It is the idea of Hideo Sawada, a Japanese businessman who is fascinated by the possibility of replacing humans with robots. His aim is to have this futuristic hotel be run mainly by the intelligent humanoids .Guests checking-in are welcomed by a family friendly English-speaking robot wearing a bow tie andbell-hop(侍者)hat. Though experienced at his job, he does request guests not to ask him "a difficult question "since he is after all," just a robot!"Those seeking a more" regular" experience, can approach the human-likeJapanese-speaking robot.When ready, visitors can request the robot "porters" to help carry belongings to their room. Those that need to stow away valuables can hand them to a helpful robot who will place them inside an individual safe box in exchange for a small fee. A one-foot-high concierge is available to provide information about the hotel's amenities, nearby attractions, and even order a taxi if needed.So how much does it cost to live in this crazy cool hotel? It depends on when you decide to go. During the low season, guests can get away with paying as little $ 60 a night for a basic room. However, during the peak season when rates are determined by an online auction, the price can get as high as $153.1. What is Hideo Sawada interested in?A. Making different kinds of robots.B. Taking the place of humans with robots.C. Setting up more hotels run by robots.D. Making robots more intelligent.【答案】B【解析】细节理解题。

根据第二段中的“..a Japanese businessman who is fascinated by the possibility of replacing humans with robots."可知,这个日本人对用机器人代替人类感兴趣。

2. From the third paragraph we can know thatA. the Japanese-speaking robot welcomes the guestsB. the human-like robot can speak Japanese and EnglishC. the human-like robot is better skilled at its job than the other robotsD. the English-speaking robot can answer simple questions【答案】D【解析】细节理解题。

根据第三段的“Though experienced at his job , he does request guests not to ask him ' a difficult question'...”可知,他不能回答很难的问题。

由此可知D项为正确选项。

3. The underlined phrase "stow away" most probably means "_______".A. purchaseB. changeC. storeD. replace【答案】C【解析】词义猜测题。

根据下文的who will place them inside an individual safe box可知,机器人会把贵重物品放进个人保险箱里面,所以该短语的意思是“储藏;储存”。

4.What could be the best title for the passage?A. World's first robot-staffed hotel is open for business.B. Japanese tops the first in making robots.C. Robots can replace humans in Japanese hotels.D. The aptly named Henn-na Hotel at a theme park.【答案】A【解析】主旨大意题。

文章的第一段是主题段,讲述了日本在制造仿真机器人方面一直走在最前沿,现在日本有世界上第一家几乎全部职员都是机器人的旅馆。

由此可知,A项概括了短文的主要内容。

A。

阅读理解(二)Battling freezing temperatures, total darkness, and other dangerous flying conditions, a plane left the South Pole on Wednesday after rescuing a sick worker from a U.S. research base. After the patient and flight crew rest , the plane will make its way to South America , where the patient will receive medical care .The daring rescue mission(任务)began last week when two planes flew from Canada to Rothera,a British base on the Antarctic Peninsula. On Tuesday, just one of the planes left Rothera on a 10-hour trip to the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station, where the sick worker was located.The station is usually unreachable during Antarctica's long winter, from February to October. Forty-eight people live at the base, including a doctor and a physician's assistant. But when the crew there determined the worker needed medical help that couldn't be provided on site, the emergency rescue mission began.A small crew, including a pilot, co-pilot, medical worker, and flight engineer, made the 1, 500-mile trip from Rothera in a Twin Otter plane. It is the only type of plane capable of flying in Antarctica's winter cold. It can operate in temperatures as low as-103F. The temperature in the South Pole on Tuesday was -73F In such conditions, an aircraft's fuel and even its batteries need to be warmed up before it can take off.The pitch-black sky and the threat of high winds and sudden weather changes make such flights extremely risky and rare. This rescue is only the third time an emergency mission has been made to the research base since 1999. The National Science Foundation, which runs the station, has not said who was rescued, or the medical condition of the person. The names of the crew members who made the daring flight have not been made public either .But according to Peter West, a National Science Foundation spokesman, the mission “went all according to plan”.1. Why did the plane fly to the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station?A. To do scientific research.B. To rescue a sick worker.C. To transport medicineD. To supply necessities.【答案】B【解析】细节理解题。
