And this is when my taxi driver told me what I now call The Law of the Garbage Truck.Many people are like garbage (rubbish) trucks.They run around full of garbage, full of frustration, full of anger, and full of disappointment.As their garbage piles up, they need a place to dump it.And if you let them, theyll dump it on you.When someone wants to dump on you, dont take it personally.You just smile, wave, wish them well, and move on.Youll be happy with what you did.I started thinking, how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me?And how often do I take their garbage and spread it to other people at work, at home, or on the streets?It was that dayI said, Im not going to do anymore.Successful people do not let Garbage Trucks take over their day.What about you?If you let more garbage trucks pass you by, youll be happier.Lifes too short to wake up in the morning with regrets.So, Love the people who treat you right.Forget about the ones who dont.高考英语阅读理解题目及答案41.What happened one day when the author was taking a taxi?A.The taxi almost hit another car.B.The taxi driver was injured.C.The author scolded the driver of the other car.D.The author learned a lesson from the driver of the garbage truck.42.How did the taxi driver respond to the behavior of the driver of the black car?A.He yelled back at the driver.B.He sent the driver to the hospital.C.He was friendly towards the driver.D.He dumped some garbage in front of his car.43.What does the taxi driver think of people according to Paragraph 3?A.Many people like to drive garbage trucks.B.Many people dump garbage wherever they like.C.Many people are warm-hearted to make others happy.D.Many people tend to be very much depressed.44.What can we infer from Paragraph 4?A.The author used to have a lot of garbage trucks.B.The author used to complain a lot.C.The author used to have a lot of money.D.The author used to be a good manager.45.According to the passage, what should you do if people dump garbage on you?A.Ignore them and go on with our own work.B.Try our best to persuade them not to do that again.C.Tell them to dump the garbage in the right place.D.Take over their work and carry the garbage to somewhere else.【参考答案】41---45ACDBA高考英语阅读理解题(二)Using tablet computers like Apples iPad and Samsungs Galaxy Note just before bed can lead to a poor nights sleep, according to research.More and more people are taking their tablets to bed with them to surf the web, check Facebook or email before switching off the light. But researchers are warning that the blueish light their screens emit can stop users getting a good nights sleep. That is because this type of light mimics daylight, convincing the brain that it is still daytime. Blue light suppresses production of a brain chemical called melatonin, which helps us fall sleep. This is because our brains have evolved to be wakeful during daylight hours. By contrast, light which is more orange or red in tone does not reduce melatonin production, perhaps because our brains recognize it as a cue that the day is ending.Neurologists (神经病学家) have known for years that staring at screens late in the evening can disrupt sleep. Researchers at the Lighting Research Centre, at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in New York, are warning that looking at tablet displays for more than two hours leads to a suppression of our natural melatonin levels as the devices emit optical radiation (光辐射) atshort wavelengths - in other words, they emit bluer light.They say: Although turning off devices at night is the ultimate solution, it is recommended that if these devices are used at night displays are dimmed as much as possible and that the time spent on them before bed should be limited.They drew their conclusions after measuring melatonin levels in 13 volunteers, after they had spent time viewing iPads at full brightness at a distance of 10 inches, for two hours. Melatonin levels were significantly lower after they had done this, than they were after the volunteers had viewed their iPads for the same time, but while wearing orange glass goggles, which cut out the blue light.They wrote in the journal Applied Ergonomics that tablet makers could tune the spectral power distribution of self-luminous devices (自发光设备的频谱功率分布) so that they disrupted the sleep patterns of users less.It is not just a good nights sleep that could be jeopardized (危害) by too much late night screen time. Researchers know that persistent disruption to sleep patterns can lead to an increased risk of obesity, and even breast cancer. However, these studies tend to be comparisons of those with chronic (慢性的) sleep disruption, such as long term shift workers, with those who have normal sleep patterns.高考英语阅读理解题目及答案12. What is it that stops users getting a good nights sleep?A. ScreensB. blueish lightC. MelatoninD. Orange or red light13. Based on their findings, researchers have made the following suggestions except that ________.A. Devices like iPads should be turned off at night.B. Tablet makers should make improvements in devices.C. Users should view iPads at full brightness instead of wearing orange glass goggles.D. The time spent on screen before bed should be controlled.14. We can infer from the passage that _________.A. Orange and red light does no good to a good nights sleep.B. Our brains recognize orange or red light in tone as a cue that the day is ending.C. The less melatonin our body produces, the easier we fall asleep.D. Too much late night screen time leads to more than sleep problem.15. The writers purpose for writing this article is to ________.A. inform readers of a recent research.B. complain about problems caused by using iPads before bed.C. offer some suggestions on late night screen viewing.D. advocate late night screen viewing.参考答案12-15 BCDA。

2024届全国高考(新高考)英语复习历年真题好题专项(阅读理解+读后续写)练习(附答案)

2024届全国高考(新高考)英语复习历年真题好题专项(阅读理解+读后续写)练习Ⅰ.阅读理解A2023ꞏ济南市高三检测说明文258词★★★☆☆The AIDA model is the foundation of modern marketing and advertising practice. It outlines the four basic steps used to persuade potentials to make a purchase. The first three steps lie in creating attention (A), decorating interest (I), and building desire (D) for the product, before the fourth step—the “call to action” (A)—tells them exactly how and where to buy. AIDA can channel the customer's feelings through each stage toward reaching a sale.Attracting the customer's attention is the first challenge and this may be achieved by using an attracting phrase or picture. Once someone's attention has been clutched,__it must be turned into real interest. This is best done by providing a brief description of the product's benefits to the consumer rather than simply listing the product's main features or problem-solving claims.Now, it is time to transform that interest into a desire for a product or service. This is where consumers need to believe their lives could be better by possessing the product. It could be a vital step towards turning a potential into a real customer.“Call-to-action” is where all of the initial hard work pays off and leads to the action from a potential customer. For example, they might pick up the phone to discuss the idea of a trial of the services or, alternatively, they may just buy that product or service that has been promoted to them all along.And AIDA is used to great effect in the movie industry. Movie studios begin their marketing campaigns months in advance. The campaigns develop by offering attractive flashes of the movie without giving too much away. Desire is inspired by the release of the full preview which is fully designed to show the exciting moments of the movie, from special effects to humorous lines of dialogue on the opening weekend. Advertisements in newspapers and on television focus on the movie's release, inviting the consumer to go and buy a ticket.1.What is the purpose of practising AIDA?A.To create jobs.B.To increase sales.C.To research markets.D.To introduce products.2.What does the underlined word “clutched” mean in Paragraph 2?A.Seized. B.Freed.C.Cheated. D.Affected.3.In which stage of the AIDA model may a customer call to try the service?A.Action. B.Interest.C.Desire. D.Attention.4.Why does the author mention the movie industry in the last paragraph?A.To design an AIDA model.B.To display how AIDA works.C.To show how to make a movie.D.To advertise the movie industry.B2023ꞏ济南市高三检测议论文349词★★★☆☆According to a study done by University of Michigan, shopping to reduce stress was 40 times more effective at giving people a sense of control and shoppers were three times less sad than those only looking at items.More than half of the 1,000 consumers surveyed by Credit Karma, head researcher of the study, said they have shopped to deal with feelings of stress or depression. About 48 percent of men and 31 percent of women who have stress shopping said they had purchased alcohol when stressed. About 82 percent of women spend on clothing compared to 52 percent of men. Women also lead shopping for jewellery, 42 percent, compared to 22 percent for men.In some sense, stress shopping can actually help you live a healthier life by making sure that your blood pressure is lowered. The survey found 82 percent had only positive feelings about their purchases and that the positive mood was long-lasting. However, stress shopping, for many, could grow into a drive that uses up money, causes conflict, and therefore adds great stress to life.Despite the in-time joy from purchases, stress shopping never proves a long-lasting cure to stress or depression. Actually it needs to be avoided anyhow. Whether you're purchasing presents or buying groceries, having the items you need written down will provide you with brightness while shopping. Reward yourself for sticking to your list and you'll be more likely to commit to it.In addition always think about what you struggle with most financially. Do you spend too much money at the mall? Eating out? Vacations? Make a list of where your money is going and take necessary steps to resist your desire. For example, if you spend too much money on dining out on weekends, stuff your cupboard with food on Friday. So you'll be more likely to stay in and cook. And you need to give up the need to keep up with others. Everyone's financial situation is different and comparison may lead to debt and dissatisfaction with what you already have.5.Why does the author mention those numbers in Paragraph 2?A.To support an idea.B.To attract readers.C.To call for actions.D.To introduce a topic.6.Which of the following may help deal with stress shopping?A.Stimulating desires.B.Recording spending.C.Turning to medicines.D.Comparing with others.7.What is the author's attitude to stress shopping?A.Unclear. B.Doubtful.C.Objective. D.Negative.8.What is a suitable title for the text?A.Does shopping benefit us?B.More stressed, women or men?C.Should we compare with others?D.Can stress shopping reduce stress?Ⅱ.读后续写[2023ꞏ武汉市高三调研]阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。

高考英语阅读专项练习附参考答案高考英语阅读专项练习1:Sometimes youll hear people say that you cant love others until you love yourself.Sometimes youll hear people say that you cant expect someone else to love you until you love yourself.Either way, youve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky.Sure we all know that were the apple of our parents eyes, and that our Grandmas think were great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics.but sometimes its a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves.If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge.it is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.Self-image is your own minds picture of yourself.This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think.Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about US.Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be.Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes.That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day.Dont allow doubts to occur in it.It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you cant move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself.Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task.If you think youre silly because you arent good at math, find a tutor.If you think youre weak because you cant run a mile, get to the track and practice.If you think youre dull because you dont wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes.But remember, just because you think it doesnt mean its true.The best way to get rid of a negative serf-image is to realize that your image is far from objective, and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities.Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image.When you can pat(拍) yourself on the back, youll know youre well on your way.Good luck!41.You need to build a positive self-image when you _________.A.dare to challenge yourselfB.feel it hard to change yourselfC.are unconfident about yourselfD.have a high opinion of yourself42.According to the passage, our serf-images _________.A.have positive effectsB.are probably untrueC.are often changeableD.have different functions43.How should you change your serf-image according to the passage?A.To keep a different image of others.B.To make your life successful.C.To understand your own world.D.To change the way you think.44.What is the passage mainly about?A.How to prepare for your success.B.How to face challenges in your life.C.How to build a positive self-image.D.How to develop your good qualities.45.Who are the intended readers of the passage?A.Parents.B.Adolescents.cators.D.People in general.阅读专项练习参考答案:41—45CBDCB高考英语阅读专项练习2:What should you think about when trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metalwork or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills. If you havehad a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is better to face any weakness than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work.46. We can infer from the first paragraph that ________.learning better at school shows power in your jobthe better you are at school subjects, the more helpful they are in your career.learning each subject well is an ability in many jobs.we should think about how to find our career47. From the passage we learn that if a students school performance is not good, he will _____.A. have no hope in his future workB. be hopeful to find a suitable jobC. regret not having worked harder at schoolD. have an opportunity of a new beginning in his future work48. All the subjects may have direct value for job hunting except _________.A. mathematicsB. EnglishC. historyD. technical drawing49. The underlined phrase “be all thumbs” (in Paragraph 3) probably means “_________”.A. heavy- handedB. the bestC. importantD. skilled50. The passage mainly discusses ___________.A. The relationship between school performance and careerB. how to get a jobC. How to show strengths in your workD. working experience and knowledge at school阅读专项练习参考答案:46- 50 BDCAA。

I.阅读理解A(2023·北京延庆·统考一模)GREAT BOOKS TO TEACH CHILDREN ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGEHere is a shortened list of books sponsored by the magazines TIME and TIME for Kids that are suitable for primary schoolers. To make the list, we considered how age-appropriate the material was, and whether the tone and story line left the reader feeling engaged and empowered rather than anxious or confused.Experts recommend the youngest kids to read books that explore the beauty and fragility (脆弱) of nature. When developing an appreciation for the world around them, they can switch to books that show the cause and effect of how humans treat our planet, and why it’s important to respect the environment. For older primary school kids, picture books can illustrate how our use of fossil (化石) fuels contributes to global warming. Most of the books on the list also offer lessons about how children, families, schools, and communities can make a difference.THANK YOU, EARTH: ALOVE LETTER TO OUR PLANETBy April Pulley Sayre This photography book shows to us plants, animals and landscapes in vivid colors and descriptions. From up-close images of insects to pictures of mountain ranges, the pages introduce children to the planets’ diversity in a simple but effective way.THE LORAXBy Dr. Seuss Thanks to its rhyme, and whimsical illustration, this classic tale is suitable for young children who can grasp the scarcity of natural resources, and also older kids who can see a danger in valuing profits over long-term environmental harm.WE ARE W ATERPROTECTORSBy Carole LindstromA tribute to native tribes that are protecting the planet, this book vividly shows the harms of oil pipelines. Kids will see the value of community action, while adults will recognize the story of the native tribes Standing Rock Sioux’s fight against the Dakota Access Pipeline.POLAR BEAR, WHY IS YOUR WORLD MELTING?By Robert E. Wells This book introduces the greenhouse effect with illustrations showing how sunlight gets trapped. It then explains fossil-fuel energy, and our reliance on it for electricity and transportation. The pages are full of science.1.To make the book list for kids, what should be considered first? A.Confusing story line.B.The tone of anxiety. C.The books sponsorship.D.Age-appropriate content. 2.What can kids learn from the book “WE ARE WATER PROTECTORS”? A.They can see the value of community action.B.They can know how to protect the native tribes.C.They can recognize the story of the native tribes.D.They can understand the importance of oil pipelines.3.Which book explains how the greenhouse effect come into existence?

But the doctor knows that medicine is not always needed. Sometimes all a sick person needs is some reassurance that all will be well. In such cases the doctor may prescribe a placebo.A placebo is a sugar pill, a harmless shot, or ail empty capsule. Even though they have no medicine in them, these things seem to make people well. The patient thinks it is medicine and begins to get better. How does this happen?The study of the placebo opens up new knowledge about the way the human body can heal itself. It is as if there was a doctor in each of us. The doctor will heal the body for us if we let it. But it is not yet known just how the placebo works to heal the body. Some people say it works because the human mind fools itself. These people say that if the mind is fooled into thinking it got medicine, then it will act as if it did, and the body will feel better.Placebos do not always work. The success of this treatment seems to rest a lot with the relationship between the patient and the doctor. If the patient has a lot of trust in the doctor and if the doctor really wants to help the patient, then the placebo is more likely to work. So in a way, the doctor is the most powerful placebo of all.A placebo can also have bad effects. If patients expect a bad reaction to medicine, then they will also show a bad reaction to the placebo. This would seem to show that a lot of how you react to medicine is in your mind rather than in your body. Some doctors still think that if the placebo can have bad effects it should never be used. They think there is still not enough known about it. The strange power of the placebo does seem to suggest that the human mind is stronger than we think it is. There are people who say you can heal your body by using your mind. And the interesting thing is that even people who swear this is not possible have been healed by a placebo.(1)What do we know about placebo according to the passage?A. It contains some sort of medicine.B. It won't function if you are negative about medicine.C. People who don't believe placebo can't be healed by it.D. Patients and doctors know clearly how it helps to heal the body.(2)Why is the doctor sometimes the most powerful placebo?A. The patient needs help badly.B. The patient believes in the doctor.C. The doctor knows better about your body.D. The doctor has carefully studied medicine.(3)What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 5 refer to?A. The placebo.B. The bad effect.C. The body.D. The medicine.(4)What is the passage mainly about?A. Placebo:Work on Your MindB. Placebo:The Most Powerful MedicineC. Placebo:The Best DoctorD. Placebo:Heal Your Body【答案】(1)A(2)B(3)B(4)A【解析】【分析】本⽂是⼀篇说明⽂,有时候病⼈的病并不是需要真正的药物来医治,⽽是需要医⽣开⼀些安慰的药剂,安慰病⼈的⼼理使病⼈的情绪得到舒缓,从⽽有利于病情的痊愈。

A recently discovered asteroid (小行星) has a chance of hitting the earth on Valentine's Day in 2046. It was discovered on Feb.26 at an observatory in San Pedro de Atacama, Chile.While the thought of an asteroid hitting the earth may sound concerning, National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) says people shouldn't be worried.The asteroid has an estimated diameter of around 160 feet, which is about the same size as an Olympic swimming pool or the width of a football field.“We've been tracking a new asteroid named 2023 DW that has a very small chance of impacting the earth. Often when new objects are discovered, it takes several weeks' data to reduce the uncertainties and adequately predict their orbits years into the future,”NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office (PDCO) said.The asteroid is ranked on the Torino Scale as Level 1 threat. The scale is a tool to categorize potential earth impacts, with zero being no threat and 10 being something that can cause a global disaster. One on the Torino Scale means 2023 DW is in the normal or green zone.“Current calculations show the chance of collision (碰撞) is extremely unlikely with no need for public concern,” NASA says of the green zone. “New telescopic observationswill very likely lead to reassignment to Level 0.”Although 2023 DW doesn't pose a great risk to the earth, NASA has been continuing to work to defend our planet from any asteroid that could cause disasters.In September, 2022, NASA crashed its Double Asteroid Redirection Test spacecraft, or DART, into an asteroid to see if it could change the trajectory of the space rock. NASA later confirmed the mission was a success, and is continuing to research how effective the method is, should a massive asteroid be headed our way.1.What does NASA's PDCO say about 2023 DW?A.It is too close to the earth.B.It must be destroyed in space.C.Its orbit is still uncertain now.D.Its orbit should be changed.2.How is 2023 DW ranked on the Torino Scale?A.As Level zero threat.B.As Level ten threat.C.In the normal zone.D.In the threatening zone.3.What does the underlined word “trajectory” mean in the last paragraph?A.Size. B.Weight.C.Angle. D.Path.4.Which can be a suitable title for the text?A.An Asteroid Was Discovered at an Observatory in ChileB.An Asteroid Is Coming Our Way, Unlikely to Hit UsC.A Space Rock Has Just Passed the EarthD.A Spacecraft Has Been Crashed RecentlyB2023ꞏ全国卷Ⅱ应用文315词★★★★☆Yellowstone National Park offers a variety of ranger programs throughout the park, and throughout the year.

2025届高考英语复习:历年优质真题、模拟题专项(阅读理解+读后续写)练习 Ⅰ.阅读理解A2023ꞏ新课标Ⅱ卷说明文290词★★★★☆Reading Art: Art for Book Lo v ers is a celebration of an everyday object—the book, represented here in almost three hundred artworks from museums around the world. The image of the reader appears throughout history, in art made long before books as we now know them came into being. In artists' representations of books and reading, we see moments of shared humanity that go beyond culture and time.In this “book of books,” artworks are selected and arranged in a way that emphasizes these connections between different eras and cultures. We see scenes of children learning to read at home or at school, with the book as a focus for relations between the generations. Adults are portrayed (描绘) alone in many settings and poses—absorbed in a volume, deep in thought or lost in a moment of leisure. These scenes may have been painted hundreds of years ago, but they record moments we can all relate__to.Books themselves may be used symbolically in paintings to demonstrate the intellect (才智), wealth or faith of the subject. Before thewide use of the printing press, books were treasured objects and could be works of art in their own right. More recently, as books have become inexpensive or even throwaway, artists have used them as the raw material for artworks—transforming covers, pages or even complete volumes into paintings and sculptures.Continued developments in communication technologies were once believed to make the printed page outdated. From a 21st-century point of view, the printed book is certainly ancient, but it remains as interactive as any battery-powered e-reader. To serve its function, a book must be activated by a user: the cover opened, the pages parted, the contents reviewed, perhaps notes written down or words underlined. And in contrast to our increasingly networked lives where the information we consume is monitored and tracked, a printed book still offers the chance of a wholly private, “off-line” activity.1.Where is the text most probably taken from?A.An introduction to a book.B.An essay on the art of writing.C.A guidebook to a museum.D.A review of modern paintings.2.What are the selected artworks about?A.Wealth and intellect.B.Home and school.C.Books and reading.D.Work and leisure.3.What do the underlined words “relate to” in Paragraph 2 mean? A.Understand. B.Paint.C.Seize. D.Transform.4.What does the author want to say by mentioning the e-reader? A.The printed book is not totally out of date. B.Technology has changed the way we read.C.Our lives in the 21st century are networked.D.People now rarely have the patience to read.B2024ꞏ济南模拟说明文264词★★★☆☆There is nothing quite like enjoying the sights, sounds and culture of a city while tasting a cup of coffee outdoors. But it is not that enjoyable when heat waves sweep the city. An outdoor cooling system produced by Green Kinonko , an Israeli (以色列的) company , began to be tested in Tel Aviv. The sweltering city is a perfect place to try the new technology.With global warming heating up the temperature, it will soon be too hot to sit outside in cafes. While outdoor cooling systems haveexisted for a while,most of them use some sort of water or a misting system to cool the air around them, consuming too much water and power. After two years of development, the perfect solution to the problem was found. “We have invented a new generation of air conditioners,”Green Kinonko's CEO Leizer said.As Leizer introduced, the energy is from the pressure created between liquid nitrogen (氮) and gas nitrogen. When liquid nitrogen at -196 ℃turns into gas, it produces a very strong pressure and the pressure is used to run a mechanical engine. It is the mechanical engine that slowly releases freezing nitrogen gas to cool down the air around it.The technology is unique and amazing. Beyond the coolness of the concept,it also has other advantages. The work unit doesn't need to be power-driven, and doesn't blow out harmful warm air as it works. As for the potential price, it will probably be no more expensive than any other air conditioner. In addition, the liquid nitrogen container will need to be replaced every seven to ten days, depending on usage. This makes it an affordable option for all sorts of businesses. The cooling system is expected to be on the market in 2024.5.What does the underlined word “sweltering” in Paragraph 1 mean?A.Warm. B.Dry.C.Hot. D.Freezing.6.What problem does the existing outdoor cooling systems have?A.They are wasteful.B.They overheat easily.C.They often break down.D.They are slow to cool the air.7.What does Paragraph 3 mainly explain?A.What powers the engine.B.What turns liquid into gas.C.How the pressure is formed.D.How the new system works.8.What is the purpose of this text?A.To promote a company.B.To settle an energy crisis.C.To introduce a technology.D.To market a misting system.Ⅱ.读后续写阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。

阅读理解议论文考点1 人与自我型议论文【2021新课标I卷】Popularization has in some cases changed the original meaning of emotional (情感的) intelligence. Many people now misunderstand emotional intelligence as almost everything desirable in a person’s makeup that cannot be measured by an IQ test, such as character, motivation, confidence, mental stability, optimism and “people skills.” Research has shown that emotional skills may contribute to some of these qualities, but most of them move far beyond skill-based emotional intelligence.We prefer to describe emotional intelligence as a specific set of skills that can be used for either good or bad purposes. The ability to accurately understand how others are feeling may be used by a doctor to find how best to help her patients, while a cheater might use it to control potential victims. Being emotionally intelligent does not necessarily make one a moral person.Although popular beliefs regarding emotional intelligence run far ahead of what research can reasonably support, the overall effects of the publicity have been more beneficial than harmful. The most positive aspect of this popularization is a new and much needed emphasis (重视) on emotion by employers, educators and othersinterested in promoting social well-being. The popularization of emotional intelligence has helped both the public and researchers re-evaluate the functionality of emotions and how they serve people adaptively in everyday life.Although the continuing popular appeal of emotional intelligence is desirable, we hope that such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion. It is our hope that in coming decades, advances in science will offer new perspectives (视角) from which to study how people manage their lives. Emotional intelligence, with its focus on both head and heart, may serve to point us in the right direction.32. What is a common misunderstanding of emotional intelligenceA. It can be measured by an IQ test.B. It helps to exercise a person's mind.C. It includes a set of emotional skills.D. It refers to a person’s positive qualities.33. Why does the author mention “doctor” and “cheater” in paragraph 2A. To explain a rule.B. To clarify a concept.C. To present a fact.D. To make a prediction.34. What is the author's attitude to the popularization of emotional intelligenceA. Favorable.B. Intolerant.C. Doubtful.D. Unclear.35. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about concerning emotional intelligenceA. Its appeal to the public.B. Expectations for future studies.C. Its practical application.D. Scientists with new perspectives.【答案】322-35 DBAB【导读】本文是一篇议论文。

Although she had spent more than 30 years working as a registered nurse, Betty told her friends that she regretted never finishing the bachelor’s degree she’d started more than 67 years earlier.Betty was the first person in her family to pursue higher education. With a dream of becoming a nurse, Betty enrolled at the University of Minnesota. But when she was just 25 credits short of getting her degree, for some reason, Betty dropped out of school and soon got married. Her career was put on hold as the couple moved around for her husband’s job, spending time living in different places.Many years later, Betty returned to community college to become a registered nurse. She worked as a nurse for more than 30 years before retiring in 2013.But in 2018, she still felt regretful over her unfinished degree. Encouraged by her friends, Betty decided to return to university to complete her bachelor’s degree. She chose to live in the dormitory and got on well with her roommates. She enrolled in classes and started working on those last 25 credits. However, she was discouraged bythe new technology used when taking online courses during the coronavirus pandemic. Even so, Betty persevered.At age 84, Betty got her bachelor’s degree in Multidisciplinary Studies from the College of Continuing and Professional Studies. She described the accomplishment as “pure joy, pure satisfaction”. Betty may even audit (旁听) college classes now that her degree is complete. She is not sure what’s next, but there’s one thing she does know: Life’s too short to live with regrets!4.Why didn’t Betty get her bachelor’s degree?A.Because she decided to marry her beloved one.B.Because she didn’t achieve the required credits.C.Because she dropped out of school to work as a nurse.D.Because she volunteered to fight the coronavirus pandemic.5.What made Betty less confident during her pursuit of her bachelor’s degree?A.The difficult courses.B.The new technology.C.The coronavirus pandemic.D.The interpersonal relationship.6.Which of the following can best describe Betty?A.Accomplished and friendly.B.Popular and caring.C.Determined and hard-working.D.Ambitious and responsible.7.What message does this passage convey?A.Genius is nothing but labor and diligence.B.Not matter of the today will drag tomorrow.C.Be the change you want to see in the world.D.It is never too late to cross items off the wish list.CCommitted to helping humans communicate with and understand as many species as possible, aCalifornia-based nonprofit organization, Earth Species Project (ESP) is taking the lead.“We are species-independent,” Raskin said to The Guardian, adding that ESP is developing translation algorithms(算法) that can be applied to biological systems of all kinds, from worms to whales. Raskin acknowledges that the goal is similar to going to the moon. Instead, the ESP roadmap involves solving a series of smaller problems to achieve the big picture. These tools will assist researchers in revealing the secrets of species under study using artificial intelligence.Bees, for instance, do a special “waggle dance” to signal to each other that they should land on a certain flower, which is a form of non-verbal communication. A noisy social environment can make it difficult to determine which animal is making the sound within a group. This phenomenon is known as the “cocktail party problem”.Though there are many challenges, some progress has been made, such as an algorithm that can produce imitated animal sounds to talk directly with them.“It’s making the Al speak the language, although we don’t know what it means yet,” Raskin said, “These are the tools that allow us to understand entire communication systems.” As we can see, Artificial Intelligence is once again being used by scientists to break barriers and open new doors that would otherwise be unopenable. More and more scientists are turning towards artificial intelligence for help in various fields, despite many well-known scientists warning that AI must be controlled and looked over.Last year, a former Google engineer claimed that the Al was sentient(有感知能力的). Although this isn’t likely to be the case, it shows just how far artificial intelligence has progressed. Interestingly, and in a somewhat connection to ESP, Professor Avi Loeb has proposed that Artificial Intelligence developed by humans could one day maybe identify Alien AI and communicate with it.8.Which statement would Raskin probably agree with?A.The purpose of EPS is to land on the the moon.B.Researchers are studying independent animals.C.Solving challenging problems is just the priority.D.AI will offer humans help to understand animals.9.Why does the author mention “waggle dance” and “cocktail party problem”?A.To show recent discoveries researchers made.B.To demonstrate difficulties researchers face.C.To reveal the secrets of species to the public.D.To arouse readers’ interest in certain animals.10.What can we know about Al in Paragraph 5?A.AI has been abandoned by scientists.B.Al is gradually taking scientists’ place.C.Scientists have different opinions of AI.D.Problems can only be solved by AI alone.11.What does Professor Avi Loeb imply in the last paragraph?A.People need to lay great stress on the alien communication.B.AI needs to be constantly updated to match alien technology.C.We’ll be surely able to communicate with aliens aided by Al.D.AI has a great potentiality in the field of scientific research.DMany owners of electric cars have wished for a battery pack that could power their vehicle for more than a thousand miles on a single charge. Researchers have developed a lithium-air battery that could make that dream a reality. The new battery design could also one day power airplanes and trucks. The main new component in this lithium-air battery is a solid electrolyte instead of the usual liquid variety.Batteries with solid electrolytes are not subject to safety problems with the liquid electrolytes used inlithium-ion and other battery types, which can overheat and catch fire. More importantly, the solid electrolyte canpotentially boost the energy four times, which translates into longer driving range.For over a decade, scientists have been working overtime to develop a lithium battery that makes use of the oxygen in air. The lithium-air battery has the highest energy of any battery technology being considered for the next generation of batteries beyond lithium-ion.The new solid electrolyte is composed of a material made from relatively inexpensive elements, compared with the past designs. Besides, the chemical reaction in lithium-ion only involves one or two electrons stored per oxygen molecule, while that for lithium-air battery involves four electrons. More electrons stored means higher energy.The new design is the first lithium-air battery that has achieved a four-electron reaction at room temperature. It also operates with oxygen supplied by air from the surrounding environment. The capability to n with air avoids the need for oxygen tanks to operate, a problem with earlier designs.“With further development, we expect our new design for the lithium-air battery to reach a record of 1200 watt-hours per kilogram,” said Curtiss, a researcher. “That is nearly four times better than lithium-ion batteries.”12.What contributes most to the lithium-ion battery?A.Lithium-ion.B.Oxygen molecules.C.Solid electrolytes.D.Liquid component.13.What’s the problem with lithium-ion batteries?A.They burn easily if overheated.B.They are unsafe in production.C.They damage the environment.D.They require longer charging time.14.How does the author organize paragraph 4?A.By giving examples.B.By making comparisons.C.By presenting statistics D.By analyzing cause and effect.15.What is the best title of the text?A.How Lithium-air Batteries Work B.What will Be Used to Power AirplanesC.Electric Cars Are Becoming More Popular D.New Batteries Offer Longer Driving RangeII.七选五Every New Year, thousands decide they’re going to change their lives. Fewer than 10 percent actually stick with their plans, and that figure is being generous. ____16____.Not aiming high enough. While it’s easy to think setting easy goals will keep you motivated, it may harm your long-term motivation. If you make goals that are too achievable, you’ll get bored and lose interest. ____17____. If you’re used to staying within your comfort zone, you'll be missing out on the satisfaction of achieving alife-changing goal. When you push yourself, you'll be able to build unshakable confidence as you achieve goal after goal.____18____. This is a fear many of us deal with. Instead of taking action, we start worrying about “ What if?”“What if it doesn’t work out? What if my dream isn’t truly my dream? What if I don’t succeed?” If you have trouble creating a vision , then you’re at the risk of being aimless through life. ____19____. You can start theprocess of discovering your life purpose by asking yourself, “ What would my ideal life look like?”Letting fear control your mind and actions. Fear can prevent you from achieving your dreams. You’ll miss out on opportunities in life if you don’t learn how to manage your fears. ____20____ . One way to manage fear is to look for the root cause of your fear. With deep introspection (反省), you can uncover the exact moment when those fears are holding you back from growing. This will give you a window of opportunity to communicate with your inner being and find release.A.Lacking self-confidenceB.Being uncertain about the futureC.Fortunately, fear can be overcomeD.Below you’ll find some common reasons why you’re losing motivationE.Many of us are motivated not by a desire to achieve, but by fear of failureF.Ideally, you want to strike a balance between pushing yourself and creating realistic goalsG.However, when you find your purpose and passion, you’ll be driven to struggle for excellence高考质量提升是一项系统工程,涉及到多个方面、各个维度,关键是要抓住重点、以点带面、全面突破,收到事半功高考质量提升是一项系统工程,涉及到多个方面、各个维度,关键是要抓住重点、以点带面、全面突破,收到事半功倍的效果。

A dirty stream, for example, often became clear after flowing through plants and along rocks where tiny creatures lived. When he got older, John started to wonder if this process could be used to clean up the messes people were making.After studying agriculture, medicine, and fisheries in college, John went back to observing nature and asking questions. Why can certain plants trap harmful bacteria (细菌)? Which kinds of fish can eat cancer-causing chemicals? With the right combination of animals and plants, he figured, maybe he could clean up waste the way nature did. He decided to build what he would later call an eco-machine.The task John set for himself was to remove harmful substances from some sludge (污泥). First, he constructed a series of clear fiberglass tanks connected to each other. Then he went around to local ponds and streams and brought back some plants and animals. He placed them in the tanks and waited. Little by little, these different kinds of life got used to one another and formed their own ecosystem. After a few weeks, John added the sludge.He was amazed at the results. The plants and animals in the eco-machine took the sludge as food and began to eat it! Within weeks, it had all been digested, and all that was left was pure water.Over the years, John has taken on many big jobs. He developed a greenhouse-like facility that treated sewage (污水) from 1,600 homes in South Burlington. He also designed an eco-machine to clean canal water in Fuzhou, a city in southeast China."Ecological design" is the name John gives to what he does. "Life on Earth is kind of a box of spare parts for the inventor," he says. "You put organisms in new relationships and observe what's happening. Then you let these new systems develop their own ways to self-repair."1.What can we learn about John from the first two paragraphs?A. He was fond of traveling.B. He enjoyed being alone.C. He had an inquiring mind.D. He longed to be a doctor.2.Why did John put the sludge into the tanks?A. To feed the animals.B. To build an ecosystem.C. To protect the plants.D. To test the eco-machine.3.What is the author's purpose in mentioning Fuzhou?A. To review John's research plans.B. To show an application of John's idea.C. To compare John's different jobs.D. To erase doubts about John's invention.4.What is the basis for John's work?A. Nature can repair itself.B. Organisms need water to survive.C. Life on Earth is diverse.D. Most tiny creatures live in groups.3.【2023年新高考全国II卷】As cities balloon with growth, access to nature for people living in urban areas is becoming harder to find. If you’re lucky, there might be a pocket park near where you live, but it’s unusual to find places in a city that are relatively wild.Past research has found health and wellness benefits of nature for humans, but a new study shows that wildness in urban areas is extremely important for human well-being.The research team focused on a large urban park. They surveyed several hundred park-goers, asking them to submit a written summary online of a meaningful interaction they had with nature in the park. The researchers then examined these submissions, coding(编码) experiences into different categories. For example, one participant’s experience of "We sat and listened to the waves at the beach for a while" was assigned the categories “sitting at beach” and “listening to waves.”Across the 320 submissions, a pattern of categories the researchers call a “nature language” began to emerge. After the coding of all submissions, half a dozen categories were noted most often as important to visitors. These include encountering wildlife, walking along the edge of water, and following an established trail.Naming each nature experience creates a usable language, which helps people recognize and take part in the activities that are most satisfying and meaningful to them. For example, the experience of walking along the edge of water might be satisfying for a young professional on a weekend hike in the park.

【英语】高三英语阅读理解专项训练100(附答案)含解析一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解In June 2014, two leading media in America reported that three-year-old Victoria Wilcher, who suffered facial scarring, was kicked out of a KFC because she was a frightening customer. Later, KFC announced that no evidence had been found to support the story. This phenomenon is largely a product of the increasing pressure in newsrooms that care more about traffic figures.Brooke Binkowski, an editor, says that she has seen a shift towards less responsibility in newsrooms. "Clickbait is king, so newsrooms will uncritically print something unreal. Not all newsrooms are like this, but a lot of them are."Asked what the driving factor was, a journalist said, "You've a strict editor and you've to meet your targets. And some young journalists are inexperienced and will not do those checks. So much news reported online happens online. There is no need to get out and knock on someone's door. You just sit at your desk and do it."Another journalist says, "More clicks equal more money. At my former employer in particular, the pressure was due to the limited resources. That made the environment quite horrible to work in."In a Feb. 2015 report for Digital Journalism, Craig Silverman wrote, "Today the bar for what is worth giving attention to seems to be much lower. Within minutes or hours, a badly sourced report can be changed into a story that is repeated by dozens of news websites, resulting in tens of thousands of shares. The rumor becomes true for readers simply by virtue of its ubiquity."And, despite the direction that some newsrooms seem to be heading in, a critical eye is becoming more, not less important, according to the New York Times' public editor, Margaret Sullivan. "Reporters and editors have to be more careful than ever before. It's extremely important to question and to prove before publication." Yet those working in newsrooms talk of doubtful stories being tolerated. In the words of some senior editors, "a click is a click, regardless of the advantage of a story". And, "if the story does turn out to be false, it's simply a chance for another bite at the cherry."(1)According to Brooke Binkowski, newsrooms produce false news because _________.A.clicks count a lotB.resources are limitedC.budgets are tightD.journalists lack experience(2)What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 5 probably mean?A.Lies can't sell without something related to the truth.B.Rumors are like a flame blown by the wind.C.Most people are easy to cheat by the false news online.D.A lie will end up as truth, if repeated often enough.(3)What's Margaret Sullivan's attitude towards false news online?A.Negative.B.Supportive.C.Skeptical.D.Neutral.(4)What is the best title of the passage?A.Spread of false stories.B.Causes of online false news.C.Duties of journalists.D.Relative laws needed to regulate the online news.【答案】(1)A(2)D(3)A(4)B【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文,作者根据一段虚假新闻的实例分析了造成这种现象的原因及人们对此的态度。

高考复习(英语)专项练习:(阅读理解)主旨大意题——段落大意类【含答案及解析】

考点分类练(九)主旨大意题——段落大意类A(2021·山东淄博高三三模)For 30 years we have been told how temperatures have been rising rapidly to the unheard-of level. This is causing polar ice to melt, sea level to rise and has brought about a dangerous increase in extreme weather events. These intense changes would likely present challenges to our society and environment.The causes of climate change are mainly anthropogenic(人类活动引起的) in nature. Since the industrial revolution, human activities have increased the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. The increased amount of gases which absorb heat has led to more heat being kept in the atmosphere, causing global warming.The certainty of global warming can be seen through some of the natural phenomena like the effect on crops and extreme weather conditions around the world. The recent assessment report says that the earth’s average temperature has risen by 0.74 degrees from 1906 to 2005, and that the average temperature will continue to rise. There have also been more violent downpours, and the ice at the world’s poles and on its mountains is melting. The rising sea level is flooding the low-lying countries in Asia and small islands in the Pacific. This may lead to the displacement of millions of people, loss of millions of land and consequently billions of dollars.Troubled by the serious situation, world leaders came together for the 2015 United Nations (UN) Climate Change Conference in Paris. The climate talks led to 196 countries reaching a landmark agreement that committed nearly every country to lowering planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions to address global climate change. That was certainly an encouraging step for our earth and mankind!As the world leaders continue to commit themselves to monitor our sick planet, we need to continue to take small steps to heal the world. We don’t have much choice. If only we could just pack our bags and migrate to Mars!1.What does paragraph2mainly talk about?A.The information of industrial revolution.B.The greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.C.The reasons of climate change.D.The result of extreme weather events.2.What can we infer from the last paragraph?A.We have made great achievements.B.Some measures are still required to take.C.Mars is suitable for people’s living.D.Some countries will receive urgent aid.3.Which of the following shows the structure of the whole text?(P:Paragraph)B(2021·陕西高三下学期模拟)Eating chocolate at least once a week could put off a heart attack, according to a new research. Chocolate is packed with plant chemicals that weaken inflammation(炎症) and help blood flow, explained scientists.Lead author Dr Chayakrit Krittanawong said,“Our study suggests chocolate helps keep the heart’s blood vessels healthy.” It collected data from six trials that examined the link over the past five decades. A total of 336,289 people reported their intake. Those who ate chocolate more than once a week reduced their risk of coronary artery(冠状动脉) disease by eight percent. This was compared to peers who ate it less than once a week.Chocolate is known to produce the same chemical in the brain as falling in love. Dr Krittanawong said,“Chocolate contains healthy nutrients such as flavonoids(类黄酮), polyphenols and stearic acid which may reduce inflammation.”Known medically as HDL(high-density lipoprotein)(高密度脂蛋白), it helps to rid LDL (low-density lipoprotein) out of the body. When this collects, it causes vessels and arteries to become blocked up. It can stop blood flow to the heart or brain, causing a heart attack or stroke. Dr Krittanawong said,“In the past, clinical studies have shown chocolate is beneficial for blood pressure.”Dark chocolate has long been known to have health benefits but recent research has suggested milk chocolate may also provide valuable nutrients to the heart. Dr Krittanawong pointed out his study did not investigate whether any particular type of chocolate was more beneficial—or if there was an ideal portion size. He said,“Chocolate appears promising for the prevention of coronary artery disease. But more research is needed to show how much and what kind of chocolate could be recommended.”While it’s not clear how much is perfect, Dr Krittanawong warned people against overeating. He said,“Moderate amounts of chocolate seem to protect coronary arteries but it’s likely that large quantities do not.”4.What does paragraph2mainly talk about?A.The result of the study.B.The process of the study.C.The participants of the study.D.The intention of the study.5.Which of the following can probably prevent blood flow?A.A heart attack.B.A stroke.C.High-density lipoprotein.D.Low-density lipoprotein.6.What does the recent study tell us?A.Chocolate is good for blood pressure.B.Dark chocolate is beneficial for health.k chocolate may also benefit the heart.D.Chocolate contains special plant chemicals.7.What’s Dr Krittanawong’s attitude towards chocolate’s preventing coronary artery disease?A.Indifferent.B.Hopeful.C.Negative.D.Uncertain.C(2021·辽宁高三3月联考)Few people realise that it takes many volunteers for one young child to have a half-hour riding lesson.I volunteer at Valley Therapeutic Equestrian Association (VTEA), close to the Washington State border. It takes a few paid staff and an army of volunteers—approximately eighty—to take care of a dozen horses and help with eighty or more children during the week. There is a large barn to clean, and hay nets and water buckets to brush and fill. Specific feeds for each horse must be prepared twice daily... The list is endless.To prepare a horse for a ride, someone has to bring it in from the outside, at times sinking into inches of black, sticky mud during the winter months. Usually, two volunteers groom(刷洗; 梳毛) the horse and put on the special saddle. Then they lead the horse to where the lesson takes place. There, one volunteer leads the horse, and usually two walk alongside for safety, one on each side. Then the horse must be returned to the barn, unsaddled, cleaned and fed.Yet so many people willingly give their time—because the children need us. Ranging in age from two upwards, the children have varying degrees of mental disabilities. Some have severe physical disabilities. Riding strengthens their muscles and bones, enabling them to enjoy a more fruitful life.Throughout my past life as an accountant, business author and speaker, I volunteered on many fields and in many organisations. However, a terrible motor-vehicle accident changed my life in a split second when my car was hit—as was my head—causing severe brain injury. It was hard to accept a new “me”, until I discovered that I needed to do something that I have a passion for. I love horses, and working with them and with the children has helped turn my life around. The journey back has been painful but worthwhile. Now, fourteen years later, I am a different person.8.What is the main idea of paragraph2?A.Horses for riding lessons are cared for carefully.B.Horse-riding lessons bring children many benefits.C.Volunteers have much to do for a horse-riding lesson.D.Disabled children are taught horse-riding in a different way.9.What does the author think of her voluntary work in VTEA?A.Risky and thrilling.B.Tiring but worthwhile.C.Funny and enjoyable.D.Demanding but fruitless.10.What can be inferred about the author from the last paragraph?A.The accident transformed her thoroughly.B.Volunteering has brought her a win-win result.C.She’s never recovered from the injury.D.She wasn’t interested in voluntary work before.11.What could be the best title for the passage?A.Helping Children in NeedB.Surviving the Brain InjuryC.Volunteering: A Journey BackD.Horse-riding: A Hard Lesson考点分类练(九)主旨大意题——段落大意类【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。

In an environment club, people work together to make our environment clean.Here are some things students often do.No-garbage lunches. How much do you throw away after lunch? Environment clubs ask students to bring their lunches in bags that can be used again. Every week they will choose the classes that make the least garbage and report them to the whole school.No-car day. On a no-car day, nobody comes to school in a car. Not the students and not the teachers! Cars give pollution to our air, so remember: walk, jump, bike and run. Use your legs! It's lots of fun.Turn off the water! Did you know that some toilets can waste twenty to forty cubic (立方) meters of water an hour? In a year, it would fill a small river! In environment clubs, students mend those broken toilets.

Thanks to its generous donors, UNICEF has helped save more lives than any other humanitarian organization.Monthly donors are a major reason why UNICEF can make that claim, according to Karla Coello, UNICEF USA Senior Director for Monthly Giving. "Last year, UNICEF responded to 377 humanitarian emergencies, from conflicts to natural disasters," says Coello. "Emergency appeals bring in important revenue — but after the emergency, there are still a lot of things children need to make life bearable. That's what our monthly donors provide."When drought destroys crops, conflict forces families from their homes, an epidemic breaks out or a disaster strikes, children suffer most. And in some countries, even the best of times are dangerous for its youngest citizens. Every day more than 15,000 children under 5 die from preventable causes.Protecting children before, during and after a crisis requires a reliable source of funding. The constant stream of revenue provided by monthly donations enables UNICEF to reach children with what they need most when they need it, prepositioning emergency supplies before a disaster strikes and continuing to build sustainable solutions after an immediate crisis has subsided.Monthly giving is also important to funding large-scale interventions(介入). Thanks to UNICEF's global immune campaigns, the world is now nearly free of polio(小儿麻痹症)and there are only 14 countries where mothers and children still face maternal and neonatal tetanus(破伤风)deadly threat. And UNICEF programs in 120 countries are helping to prevent and treat malnutrition, which is linked to nearly half of all deaths of children under 5."UNICEF USA monthly donors are our most engaged, most dedicated supporters," says Rebecca V olpe, UNICEF USA Manager, Monthly Giving. "So we do our best to make them feel appreciated by keeping them thoroughly updated about the powerful impact they arehaving and showing them how much they matter to us." In turn, monthly donors tend to be dedicated supporters. "Protecting children — giving them opportunities to play, learn, feel safer, heal — is critical to us," explained a survey respondent, expressing a commitment to children that UNICEF USA's Monthly Giving team sees every day.Supporters who sign up with UNICEF USA to give monthly automatically become members of the Guardian Circle, which affords them benefits, including:Annual statements to make tax time easierAn easy-to-use donor access that simplifies modifying gift amounts, updating payment methods and making other changes, including the timing of donations with the option to cancel at any pointTargeted communications in the form of monthly statements and a quarterly 8-page newsletter with stories from the fieldA team available to answer questions via email or phone"We have some donors who are on fixed income, others who can afford to make considerable monthly donations," says Coello. "Whether you give $5 or $700 a month, you are super important to us. What's important is that they all really want to give and help children. And that's amazing."It can be time-consuming and difficult to track charitable donations. At end of year, Guardian Circle monthly supporters receive one statement that makes filing tax returns easier — and it's always delightful to see how much good has been done for the world's most vulnerable(受伤害的)children.2.What is UNICEF meant to do according to the passage?A.To protect human rights of children who live in poverty.B.To provide timely assistance during time of emergency.C.To ensure children their rights, survival and development.D.To offer affordable services children in poor nations need.3.Why does the writer mention UNICEF's global immune campaigns?A.To warn people of dangers caused by polio and tetanus.B.To urge people to prevent and treat malnutrition as well.C.To inform people of the deadly threat of certain diseasesD.To state the benefits of funding large-scale interventions.4.If you sign up with UNICEF USA as a monthly donor, you can _______.A.ease your burden at yearly tax timeB.cancel whatever you have donatedC.get free newsletters every three monthsD.answer questions via email or phone5.According to Coello, who can be a monthly donor?A.Only the one who is able to pay a considerable amount.B.Whoever can afford to donate a certain amount monthly.C.One who has a fixed income to make monthly donations.D.Anyone willing to provide assistance for children in need. 6.Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A.Why Donating Monthly Works Best.B.How The Donors Provide Assistance.C.What The Donors Do For Children.D.When Donating Can Be Done Properly.阅读理解Self-drivingCapabilitiesSensor and camera-equipped models from Audi and V olkswagen, among others, don't just automatically brake to prevent minor accidents; they can actually navigate(行驶)around highway traffic and into garages without a human at the wheel.AttractiveDashboardsIn addition to Ford's new Sync system, which better understands voice commands, Apple and Google have partnered with automakers to create interfaces(界面)as user-friendly as the ones on your smartphone.Smarter HeadlightsAudi's and BMW's ultra-bright laser headlights can detect oncoming cars and dim slightly to avoid disturbing their drivers.

An express train was due to go past about thirty minutes later. If it were not stopped, that long train, full of passengers, would fall into the stream. “Someone must go to the station and warn the station-master,” Kate thought. But who was to go? She would have to go herself. There was no one else.In wind and rain she started on her difficult way. Soon she was at the bridge that crossed the Des Moines River, a bridge also built of wood, just like the bridge across Honey Creek. The storm had not washed this away, but there was no footpath across it. She would have to cross it by stepping from sleeper (枕木)to sleeper. With great care she began the dangerous crossing, sometimes on her hands and knees, hardly daring to look down betweenthe sleepers into the wild flood waters below. If she should slip, she would fall between the sleepers, into the rapidly flowing stream.At last -- she never knew how long it had taken her一she felt solid ground under her feet. But there was no time to rest. She still had to run more than half a mile and had only a few minutes left. Unless she reached the station before the express did, many, many lives would be lost.She did reach the station just as the train came into sight. Fortunately thestation-master was standing outside. “The bridge is down! Stop the train! Oh, please stop it!” Kate shouted breathlessly.The station-master went pale. He rushed into the station building and came back with a signal light. He waved the red light as the train came into the station. It was not a second too early.根据短文内容,选择最佳答案,并将选定答案的字母标号填在题前括号内。

Professor Martin's report says that children who attend a number of schools, because their parents have to move around the country, probably make slow progress in their studies. There are also signs, says Professor Martin, that an unusually large number of such children are mentally affected.The professor says, "It's true, my personal feeling is that children should stay in one school. Our feelings are based on research and not on any personal feeling that I or many assistants may have on the subject."Captain Thomas James, an army lecturer for the past 20 years and himself a father of two, said, "I've never heard such rubbish. Taking me for example, no harm is done to the education of my children who change school regularly—if they keep to the same system, as in our Army school. In my experience—and I've known quite a few of them—Army children are as well-adjusted (适应) as any others, if not better. What the professor doesn't appear to appreciate is the fact that in such situations children will adapt (适应) much better than grown-ups."When this was put to Professor Martin, he said that at no time has his team suggested that all such children were backward or mentally affected in some way, but simply that in their experience there was a clear tendency (倾向)."Our findings show that while the very bright child can deal with regular changes without harming his or her general progress in studies, the majority (大多数) of children suffer from constantly (不断地) having to enter a new learning situation."(1)Professor Martin's report suggests that ________.A.it may not be good for children to change schools too oftenB.parents should not move around the countryC.children are now making slow progressD.more and more children are mentally affected(2)According to the passage, Professor Martin's personal feeling ________.A.is opposite of what his report has shownB.is in a way supported by his researchC.has played a big part in his researchD.is based on his own experience as a child(3)From the passage, we can conclude that Captain James's children ________.A.have been affected by changing schoolsB.go to ordinary state schoolsC.can get used to the Army school educationD.discuss their education regularly with their father(4)According to Professor Martin, ________ suffer from changing schools regularly.A.army children B.quite a few childrenC.bright children D.few children2.阅读理解Short Story CompetitionThe competition begins at June 30 and ends at December 15.It is open to all local citizens of Ontario who are at 16 or over, except the employees and judges and anyone living with any employee of the sponsors or judges.The author's name address phone number and a 25-50-word self-introduction must be included with each entry on a separate sheet of paper.

There are four types to be aware of.Eye contact is one of the most direct and powerful facial expressions. The eyes are always talking. The use of eye contact varies significantly from culture to culture. In some regions, direct eye contact is often considered a sign of trustworthiness. So, if you're in America, you should know soft, attentive eye contact would convey honesty. However, a hard, unblinking stare will send a much different message, similar to the meaning of direct eye contact in some regions.Gestures can be used to emphasize(强调)meaning. Pressing fingers together to form a steeple slows interest and determination. Touching the nose or rubbing eyes indicates discomfort. A hand to the back of the neck may indicate you are not interested in a conversation.Body posture can be closed or open. A firm handshake will give the impression of honesty. Folding arms across your chest or body is protective. People with arms folded, legs crossed and bodies turned away reject messages. A head held straight up signals a neural attitude. A head sidewards indicates interest. A head down is negative.The position of speakers and listeners: face-to-face, side-to-side, or back-to-back, can send powerful messages. In a group situation, when the leader faces the group and turns toward the one who is speaking, this conveys strong attention. When two people are communicating, competitors more possibly sit facing each other while cooperators sitside-by-side.(1)Which of the following body language can mean or express honesty?A.A head sidewards or touching the nose.B.Attentive eye contact or a firm handshake.C.A firm handshake or folding arms across one's chest.D.Attentive eye contact or folding arms across one's chest(2)What shows your discomfort in the conversation?A.Touching the nose or rubbing eyes.B.Folding arms across your chest or body.C.Putting a hand to the back of the neck.D.Pressing fingers together to form a steeple.(3)Which of the following best explains "reject" underlined in Paragraph 4?A.Feel down.B.Care for.C.Turn down.D.Agree with.(4)Which type of body language do the examples in Paragraph 5 belong to?A.Facial expressions.B.Gestures.C.Body posture.D.Space relationship.(5)What does the text mainly talk about?A.Types of body language.B.The origin of body language.C.How to learn body language.D.How to use body language. 7.阅读理解Everybody, at some point in their lives, has experienced failure. It could be something as simple as not getting the job you wanted, or getting fewer marks even after hard work. But what makes you is not your failure, but how you get back up after being hit.Once, a young school boy was caught in a fire accident in his school and was assumed that he would not live. His mother was told that he was sure to die, for the terrible fire had destroyed the lower half of his body. Even if he were to survive, he would be lame throughout his life.But the brave boy did not want to die nor did he want to be lame. Much to the amazement of the doctor, he did survive. But unfortunately from his waist down, he had no motor ability. His thin legs just hung there, lifeless. Eventually he left the hospital. But his determination to walk was unshakable. At home, when he was not in bed, he had to stay in a wheelchair. One day, he threw himself from the chair and pulled himself across the grass, dragging his legs behind him. He reached the fence, raised himself up and then began dragging himself along the fence, firmly determined. He did this every day, with faith in himself that he would be able to walk unaided.

"Schipper explained. It seemed as if we had long been good friends. I don't know why. We just started talking and it went from there. "She had a lot to share with all of us at that camp. She told us stories about what it was like at big meets like the Olympics and what it's like to be on an Australian team, It was really interesting. "Next time, things will be more serious. I will still be swimming in the 50m butterfly at the nationals, so there is a chance that I could actually be competing against Shane Gould," said Schipper, who burst onto the scene at last year's national championships with second places in the 100m and 200m butterfly.1.What is the passage mainly about?A.Stories happening in swimming competitions.B.Two women swimmers winning Olympic golds.C.Lessons learned from international swimming championships.D.Friendship and competition between two swimmers.2.Gould and Schipper are going to?A.talk about sport and lifeB.go back to elite competitionC.set a qualifying time and win goldD.take part in the same sport.3.Gould won her three Olympic golds when she was?A.15.B.17.C.22.D.30.4.The underlined word "it" in the fifth paragraph probably refers to?A.The Olympics B.The youth campC.The friendship D.The Australian team5.阅读理解On the eve of our daughters' weddings, I gave both of them what I considered to be excellent marital advice: never leave your husband unsupervised (无人监督的)with pruning shears (修枝剪).If only I had taken my own advice. I recently let my guard down. Thirty﹣some years of marriage can do that to a woman. Give a man pruning shears and electric trimmers (电动修剪器)and he will give new meaning to "armed and dangerous."One day earlier this year, my husband said that the crab apple tree was dead."Why do you think it is dead?" I asked."Look at it. There's not a leaf on it.""There's not a leaf on anything. It's March," I said."It looked sick last fall and with this bitter winter we had, I'm convinced it's dead."The truth is he's never liked the crabapple. Sure, it has beautiful blooms in the spring, but then it gets a disease, the leaves curl, and it drops those little apples that sit on the driveway.Each passing week he pronounced the tree dead. Eventually I began to believe him. Though he agreed it would be a regrettable loss, there was a twinkle in his eye. He armed himself a couple of weeks ago and began trimming. A branch here, a branch there, a small limb, then a large limb. I watched and then decided to check the wood on some of the branches closer to the trunk. I broke one off and saw green.The crabapple was not dead. It just hadn't had time to leaf out. The tree was now falling to one side, but it was not dead. I would have told him so, but he had moved on to a maple. Once the man starts, he can't stop. One trim leads to another."Please, stop!" I called.He smiled and nodded, but he couldn't hear because he had started the hedge (树篱)trimmers and was getting ready to fix a line of hedges.Zip (飕飕声), zip, zip."What do you think?" he shouted."It's supposed to be a privacy hedge; now all that will be private are our ankles."He started the trimmers again."Stop!" I called, "Come back!""Why?" he shouted."You're in the neighbor's yard."(1)By saying "If only I had taken my own advice." the author means that .A.she didn't follow her own advice about pruning shearsB.she feels regretful about her marriage after many yearsC.she shouldn't have kept a close watch on her husbandD.she shouldn't have given that marital advice to her daughters(2)We can learn from the article that the author's husband .A.has a great talent for gardeningB.nearly ruined their neighbor's gardenC.mistook their crab apple tree for a maple treeD.had never used pruning shears before(3)What does the article mainly talk about?A.Why the author's husband insisted on trimming their crabapple tree.B.Why the author's husband shouldn't have been allowed to trim their crab apple tree.C.How the author has survived her "thirty-some" years of marriage.D.How the author's husband killed their crab apple tree.(4)What is the tone of the article?A.Anxious.B.Critical.C.Serious.D.Humorous.6.阅读理解When I recently revealed to my friends, colleagues, and family members that I would be moving my family to Israel, the reactions were numerous and varied. Some people said it was an expected thing while others asked: Why now? What will you do?For me, making the move to Israel is the fulfillment of a dream that has lasted for my 47 years of life. I have always known that Israel is my home. Over the years Israel has been inmy heart, but I have found a number of reasons to put off making it my permanent residence: kids, the economy, education… you name an excuse, and at some point I have probably used it.Truthfully, I believe that I was always just a little bit scared. And of course I still am, with the fear factor that is reported by the press surrounding the Israeli military and economy. However, it has come to the point when I have realized that for over 2000 years we have longed for this land, and that for 47 years I have denied the opportunity to make it my home. I am finally ready to fully grasp this opportunity.Over the years, I have always loved visiting Israel. I have traveled there with my family, and enjoyed introducing thousands of travelers to the country. I have come to love all of these things about Israel as a tourist because I get to love my home. And as far as waiting for the “perfect” condition under which to make aliyah, I believe the time is now!I have been asked many times if I am nervous about moving to Israel. Before I answer, I remember that we have overcome the Greeks, the Romans, the Russian killings, Hitler and the Holocaust(大屠杀),and the armies of seven countries.How can I not feel confident that I , and my family, will overcome any difficulties that may come our way? I am not worrying, complaining, crying, or fearing as I prepare to make aliyah. I am proud and excited to say that I am fulfilling a 47-year-old dream: I am going home.(1)What does the author want to say in the passage?A.His dream is to come true after 47 years.B.It is a dilemma for him to return to Israel.C.He didn't live a happy life in Israel.D.It is a latest trend to fulfill everyone's dream.(2)The author didn't return to Israel before because_________.A.his children mainly held him back B.he failed to get determinedC.he didn't save enough money D.he hoped to finish his education (3)What does the underlined part “make aliyah” mean in the passage?A.To return to Israel.B.To make a decision.C.To live happily.D.To catch a chance.(4)It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A.the author will be happy to meet his relatives in IsraelB.Israel is a familiar word but a strange place for the authorC.the Israeli suffered a lot in the historyD.Israel is still a place between wars and chaos7.阅读理解The 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 . Meanwhile 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.(1)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.(2)The astronauts will suffer from a carbon-dioxide headache when _____.A.they 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 pedaling(3)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 station(4)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 station8.阅读理解I really love this saying, “Love is endless and unlimited.” For me, there's a story behind it. When I used to hand out chocolates with beautiful paper bags, my friends always told me, “You are wasting time and money. No one here believes in nameless gifts.” To be honest, I have noticed that people here do donate (捐赠)in temples. They give food to the poor, and provide clothes and other things for whoever is in need.I think maybe I am the one who starts to think of the dogs in our neighborhood. When I moved into this new community, I noticed that there were two street dogs. They were wounded and homeless, and everyone used to stay away from them and hit them when they came any closer. They were becoming thinner and thinner and they would did of hungersooner or later.But my habit of loving dogs has changed all these things. I began to walk close to them and give them food regularly. When I touched their heads and gave love to them, I could see tears in their eyes. My friends noticed, and now even kids and elders in the community provide them with food and also love them. I am really glad to see that I saved their lives.What I started will lead to beautiful memories with them. They enjoy playing with me and they even have a particular pose when they see me. I see a sparkle in their eyes and a smile on their faces. They are priceless for me.(1)Why did the author's friends discourage him to hand out chocolates?A.Because people didn't need gifts.B.Because it cost too much money.C.Because people didn't trust strangers.D.Because dogs could not eat chocolates.(2)What did people think of the dogs in the community at first?A.Lovely.B.Frightening.C.Exciting.D.Unpleasant.(3)How did people react to the author's kindness to the dogs?A.They laughed at him.B.They praised him for that.C.They began to care for the dogs.D.They offered him food for the dogs.(4)How does the author sound when telling the story?A.Pitiful.B.Sad.C.Honest.D.Proud.答案解析部分【答案】1.D2.D3.A4.C5.【答案】(1)A(2)B(3)B(4)D6.【答案】(1)A(2)B(3)A(4)C7.【答案】(1)A(2)C(3)D(4)B8.【答案】(1)C(2)D(3)C(4)D高考英语阅读理解真题专项突破训练5套一、阅读理解阅读理解Where to Eat in BangkokBangkok is a highly desirable destination for food lovers.

高考英语专题复习阅读理解(含答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1.阅读理解Our plan was to drive into Cambridge, catch the 7:34 train to Liverpool Street Station, then to separate and meet again for lunch. We should have arrived at Liverpool at 9:19, but due to a typical London fog, the train had to move along so slowly that it was not until 10:30 that it got there. In spite of our late arrival, Joan, my wife's sister, decided that she would go to see the Crown Jewels in the Tower of London while we went shopping. It was only after her sister had disappeared into the fog that my wife realized that we hadn't decided where we should meet for lunch. Since I had our three tickets for the concert in my pocket, this was indeed a problem. There seemed to be nothing we could do except taking a taxi to the Tower of London, and try to find her there. Needless to say, we didn't find her.It was now one o'clock, and the concert began at 2:30. "Perhaps she will think of waiting outside the concert hall," suggested my wife hopefully. By this time the fog was so thick that road traffic had to stop, and the only way to get there was by underground railway. Hand in hand we felt our way along the road to where we thought the nearest station should be. An hour later we were still trying to find it. Just as I was about to lose my temper completely when we met a blind man tapping his way confidently through the fog. With his help we found Tower Hill tube station just fifty yards down the road.By now it was far too late even to try to get to the concert hall before the performance began at 2:30, so we decided to return to Cambridge. It took seven long hours instead of the usual two to make that journey. Nor were we able to get any food and drink on the train. Tired and hungry we finally reached home at ten, opening the door to the sound of the telephone bell. It was Joan; she had seen the Crown Jewels, had managed to get another ticket for concert, and had had a wonderful dinner at a restaurant near the hotel where she decided to stay for the night. Now she was ringing to discover whether we had had an equally successful day.(1)Why was Joan separated from her sister and her brother-in-law?A. they could not see each other because of the fog.B. Joan had not seen Crown Jewels.C. They planned to do different things until lunch time.D. The writer didn't want to go to the concert.(2)What did the writer plan to do in the afternoon?A. Go to the concert.B. See the Crown Jewels.C. Return to Cambridge.D. Go shopping.(3)The reason why they didn't all meet for lunch was that _______.A. They lost their way in the fogB. they forgot to make necessary arrangementC. they waited at different places and didn't meet each otherD. the couple couldn't find the underground station(4)It's quite clear that for Joan the trip to London had been ________.A. spilt by the fogB. quite tiringC. rather disappointingD. very enjoyable【答案】(1)C(2)A(3)B(4)D【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者一伙人到伦敦游玩的故事。

六、阅读理解AIt’ll soon be the birthday of one of my closest friends,Susie.I still cannot decide what to give her.She’s a rare friend because she has been there for me all the time whenever I need a friend to talk to.I can always depend on her to be the first to arrive to give me advice when I have problems.I guess I am so lucky to have her as a friend.It’s more than seven years since I first met S usie in our school.I joined the theater group and she was a director then.At first I thought she was intimidating(令人生畏的) but in the end I realized that she needed to keep a strict image in order for her actors and actresses to take her seriously.And then during practice I got a chance to know her better.In fact,she was a friendly and warm-hearted person.Soon we became good friends.I don’t know exactly what to give my friend on her birthday as I believe she has everything.So it’s really hard to buy her a gift she will like.This year I want something different and special but I don’t know what to give.One day I searched the Internet without any purpose and to my surprise there is a really lovely site where you can buy all kinds of gifts.I scanned(浏览) some of their items and I found cool and exciting gifts.I chose a special personalized bracelet(手镯).I’m sure that this will look perfect on her.I put our names as part of the design of the bracelet so that it’ll remind us that we’ll forever be friends.I can’t wait to give her my gift but I won’t tell her yet.I don’t want to destroy the surprise.据此回答以下3题。
