2016浙江高考英语二轮科普知识阅读理解（2）解析答案科普知识（阅读理解）由(2009安徽,C)改编Sometimes,the simplest ideas are the best.For example,to absorb heat from the sun to heat water,you need large,flat,black surfaces.One way to do that is to build those surfaces specially,on the roofs of buildings.But why go to all that trouble when cities are full of black surfaces already,in the form of asphalt(柏油) roads?Ten years ago,this thought came into the mind of Arian de Bondt,a Dutch engineer.He finally persuaded his boss to follow it up.The result is that their building is now heated in winter and cooled in summer by a system that relies on the surface of the road outside.The heat-collector is a system of connected water pipes.Most of them run from one side of the street to the other,just under the asphalt road.Some,however,dive deep into the ground.When the street surface gets hot in summer,water pumped through the pipes picks up this heat and takes it underground through one of the diving pipes.At a depth of 100 metres lies a natural aquifer(蓄水层) into which several heat exchangers(交换器) have been built.The hot water from the street runs through these exchangers,warming the groundwater,before returning to the surface through another pipe.The aquifer is thus used as a heat store.In winter,the working system is changed slightly.Water is pumped through the heat exchangers to pick up the heat stored during summer.This water goes into the building and is used to warm the place up.After performing that task,it is pumped under the asphalt and its remaining heat keeps the road free of snow and ice.1.Which of the following is true according to the first two paragraphs?()A.Arian de Bondt got his idea from his boss.rge,flat,black surfaces need to be built in cities.C.The Dutch engineer’s system ha s been widely used.D.Heat can also be collected from asphalt roads.2.For what purpose are the diving pipes used?()A.To absorb heat from the sun.B.To store heat for future use.C.To turn solar energy into heat energy.D.To carry heat down below the surface.3.From the last paragraph we can learn that .A.some pipes have to be re-arranged in winterB.the system can do more than warming up the buildingC.the exchangers will pick up heat from the street surfaceD.less heat may be collected in winter than in summer4.What is most likely to be discussed in the paragraph that follows?()A.What we shall do if the system goes wrong.B.What we shall do if there are no asphalt roads.C.How the system cools the building in summer.D.How the system collects heat in spring and autumn.语篇解读:城市的黑色柏油路有了用武之地,可以用来收集热量,起到冬暖夏凉的功效。

浙江宁波市2016高考英语阅读理解（二轮）基础选练（1）及答案【2015高考复习】阅读理解During the school year many parents take on the role of driver as they drive their children from one lesson to another。
Understandably so。
Many of us want our children to have a little taste of everything，from organized sports to music，dance and more.But we can overdo it，leaving our children feeling a little burnt out,and according to parent educator Diane Loisie，it's their school work that suffers the most，“After school，if they’re busy in a number of sporting events，besides,they need to do their homework，then the time they’ll feel sleepy is in the classroom.Your child needs free time。
So if you're filling up that after school time，then it's during the day they’re going to be taking a break。
”Professor Claire McDe rmott agrees that there’s a lot to be gained from sometimes putting those scheduled lessons and activities away.“Relaxing time is important for children。

A mouse happened to look through a hole in the wall to see the farmer and his wife open a package。
“What food might this contain?” The mouse wondered。
But he was sad to discover it was a mousetrap。
Back to the farmyard, the mouse announced this warning; “There is a mousetrap in the house！There is a mouse trap in the house！”The hen clucked (咯咯地叫) and scratched，raised her head and said，“Mr. Mouse，I can tell this is a great concern to you, but it is of no consequence to me. I cannot be bothered by it。
”Then the mouse turned to the pig. The pig sympathized, but said，“I am so very sorry，Mr. Mouse, but there is nothing I can do about it but pray。
Be assured you are in my prayers。
”Then the mouse turned to the cow and repeat the same words。
The cow said，“Moo, Mr。

科普知识阅读理解（1）科普知识（阅读理解）由 (2012山东,D)改编For those who are tired of doing the laundry,Samsung has found an answer:a washing machine that can tell you when your laundry is done via a smartphone app(application).Strange though it may seem—“my wife already does that”was a common response among attendees viewing the device when it was introduced at the Consumer Electronics Show(CES) this week—Samsung is just one of many appliance makers racing to install (安装) a large number of internet-connected features in machines in an effort to make them “smart”.Last year,it was a refrigerator that tweeted.This year,it’s Wi-Fi-enabled laundry machines and fridges that can tell you when your groceries are going bad.The washers and dryers,available starting in the spring,connect to any smartphone through a downloadable application.The phone can then be used as a remote control,so the machines can be turned on and off while their owner is at work or on the bus.Samsung says it’s not just something new—the app connection actually has some practical uses.“If you started to dry clothes in the morning and forgot to take them out,you can go to your phone and restart your dryer for the time when you come home,so your clothes are refreshed and ready to go,” said spokesperson Amy Schmidt.The company also says that with electricity rates (电价) varying depending on the time of day,more control over when the machines are used can help save money.Perhaps,but what they will probably really accomplish is what all good technologies do—enable laziness.Rather than getting up to check on whether the laundry is done,users will instead monitor it on their phones while watching TV.1.What can be inferred from the common response of the attendees at the CES?( )A.The machine will be a big success.B.Their wives like doing the laundry.C.The machine is unrelated to their life.D.This kind of technology is familiar to them.2.What can we learn about the new laundry machines?( )A.They can tell you when your clothes need washing.B.They can be controlled with a smartphone.C.They are difficult to operate.D.They are sold at a low price.3.We can conclude from Samsung’s statements that .A.the app connection makes life easierB.it is better to dry clothes in the morningC.smartphones can shorten the drying timeD.we should refresh clothes back at home4.What is the main idea of the last paragraph?( )A.The laundry should be frequently checked.zy people like using such machines.C.Good technologies also cause problems.D.Television may help do the laundry.语篇解读:本文属于科普知识类。

The same experiment,but with three spots shown before two,shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes.Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects(a comb,a key,an orange and so on),changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves.Could it be the pattern that two things make,as opposed to three? No again.Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three,or three to two.The effect even crosses between senses.Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two;likewise(同样地) when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.1.The experiment describe d in Paragraph 1 is related to the baby’s .A.sense of hearingB.sense of sightC.sense of touchD.sense of smell2.Babies are sensitive to the change in .A.the size of cardsB.the colour of picturesC.the shape of patternsD.the number of objects3.Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats?( )A.To reduce the difficulty of the experiment.B.To see how babies recognize sounds.C.To carry their experiment further.D.To keep the babies’ interest.4.Where does this text probably come from?( )A.Science fiction.B.Children’s literature.C.An advertisement.D.A science report.语篇解读:本文为说明文。

But designer Mikhail Belyaev doesn’t think that forgetting to check the weather forecast before heading out should result in you getting wet。
That’s why he created Lampbrella,a lamp post with its own rain—sensing umbrella。
The designer says he came up with the idea after watching people get wet on streets in Russia.“Once，I was driving on a central Saint Petersburg street and saw the street lamps lighting up people trying to hide from the rain.I thought it would be appropriate to have a canopy(伞篷）built into a street lamp。
”he said.The Lampbrella is a standard-looking street lamp fitted with an umbrella canopy。
It has a built-in electric motor which can open or close the umbrella on demand.Sensors（传感器）then ensure that the umbrella offers pedestrians shelter whenever it starts raining。

Is it coming from ahead or behind or from the side?”You must think about this all the time on the boat.The wind direction tells you what to do with the sail.Let’s start with the wind blowing from b ehind.This means the wind and the boat are going in the same direction.Then you must always keep the sail outside the boat.It should be at a 90° angle (角度) to the boat.Then it will catch the wind best.If the wind is blowing from the side,it is blowing across the boat.In this case,you must keep the sail half way outside the boat.It should be at a 45° angle to the boat.It needs to be out far enough to catch the wind,but it shouldn’t flap (摆动).It shouldn’t look like a flag on a flagpole.If it is flapping,it i s probably out too far,and the boat will slow down.Sailing into the wind is not possible.If you try,the sail will flap and the boat will stop.You may want to go in that direction.It is possible,but you can’t go in a straight line.You must go first in one direction and then in another.This is called tacking.When you are tacking,you must always keep the sail inside the boat.1.What should you consider first while sailing?( )A.Sailors’ strength.B.Wave levels.C.Wind directions.D.Size of sails.2.What does the word “It” underlined in Paragraph 4 refer to?()A.The boat.B.The wind.C.The sail.D.The angle.3.What do you have to do when sailing against the wind?( )A.Move in a straight line.B.Allow the sail to flap.C.Lower the sail.D.Tack the boat.4.Where can you probably find the text?( )A.In a popular magazine.B.In a tourist guidebook.C.In a physics textbook.D.In an official report.语篇解读:本文为科普说明文。

We already know the fastest, least expensive way to slow climate change：Use less energy。
With a little effort，and not much money, most of us could reduce our energy diets by 25 percent or more — doing the Earth a favor while also helping our wallets。
Not long ago, my wife, PJ，and I tried a new diet - not to lose a little weight but to answer an annoying question about climate change. Scientists have reported recently that the world is heating up even faster than predicted only a few years ago，and that the consequences could be severe if we don't keep reducing emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2）and other greenhouse gases that are trapping heat in our atmosphere。
We decided to try an experiment. For one month we recorded our personal emissions of CO2. We wanted to see how much we could cut back，so we went on a strict diet. The average US household produces about 150 pounds of CO2 a day by doing common—place things like turning on air—conditioning or driving cars。
2016浙江宁波市高考英语二轮：阅读理解精炼(1)答案
2016浙江宁波市高考英语二轮：阅读理解精炼（1）答案2016高考英语阅读理解--历史类It’s the worst event in human being’s nautical（航海的）history , six times more deadly than the Titanic . When the German cruise ship Wilhelm Gustloff was hit by torpedoes（鱼雷）fired from a Russian submarine in the final winter of World War II , more than 10,000 people – mostly women , children and old people fleeing the final Red Army push into Nazi Germany – were packed aboard .An ice storm had turned the decks into frozen sheets that sent hundreds of families sliding into the sea as the ship tilted and began to go down . Others desperately tried to put lifeboats down . Some who succeeded fought off those in the water who had the strength to try to claw their way aboard . Most people froze immediately . “ I’ll never forget the screams , ” says Christa Ntitzmann , 87 , one of the 1,200 survivors . She recalls watching the ship , brightly lit , slipping into its dark grave-and into seeming nothingness , rarely mentioned for more than half a century .Now German y’s Nobel Prize-winning author Gtinter Grass has revived the memory of the9,000 dead , including more than 4,000 children-with his latest novel Crab Walk , published last month . The book ,which will be out in English next year , doesn’t dwell on the sink ing : its heroine is a pregnant young woman who survives the catastrophe only to say later : “ Nobody wanted to hear about it , not here in the West ( of Germany ) and not at all in the East . ”The reason was obvious . As Grass put in a recent interview w ith the weekly Die Woche : “ Because the crimes we Germans are responsible for were and are so dominant , we didn’t have the energy left to tell of our own sufferings . ” The long silence about the sinking of the Wilhelm Gustloff was probably unavoidable – and necessary .By unreservedly owning up to their country’s monstrous crimes in the Second World War , Germans have managed to win acceptance abroad , marginalize the neo-Nazis at home and make peace with their neighbors .Today’s unified Germany is more prosperous and stable than at any time in its long , troubled history . For that , a half century of willful forgetting about painful memories like the German Titanic was perhaps a reasonable price to pay . But even the most politically correct Germans believe that they’ve now earned the right to discuss the full historical record . Not to equate German suffering with that of its victims , but simply to acknowledge a terrible tragedy .【小题1】Why does the author say the sinking of the Wilhelm Gustloff was the worst event innautical history ?A．It was attacked by Russian torpedoes .B．Most of its passengers were frozen to death .C．Its victims were mostly women and children .D．It caused the largest number of casualties .【小题2】How does Gunter Grass revive the memory of the Wilhelm Gustloff tragedy ? A．By presenting the horrible scene of the torpedo attack .B．By describing the ship’s sinking in great detail .C．By giving an interview to the weekly Die Woche .D．By illustrating the survival of a young pregnant woman .【小题3】What’s the meaning of the underlined word “ marginalize ”A．highlight B．weakenC．strengthen D．fasten【小题4】It can be learned from the passage that Germans no longer think thatA．they will be misunderstood if they talk about the Wilhelm Gustloff tragedyB．the Wilhelm Gustloff tragedy is a reasonable price to pay for the nation’s past misdeeds C．Germany is responsible for the horrible crimes it committed in World War IID．it is wrong to equate their sufferings with those of other countries2016高考英语阅读理解--历史类Getting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thing. However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.In the early 16th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block outdisease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in his kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, King of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the nobleman should not go out.Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease. Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War Ⅱ. Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea: clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays. Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease.On the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist(免疫学家)，encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter position is gaining some ground.【小题1】The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because . A．they lived healthily in a dirty environment.B．they believed disease could be spread in public bathsC．they thought bath houses were too dirty to stay inD．they considered bathing as the cause of skin disease【小题2】Which of the following best describes Henry IV’s attitude to bathing? A．Approving. B．Afraid..C．Curious D．Uninterested.【小题3】How does the passage mainly develop?A．By providing examples.B．By making comparisons.C．By following the order of time.D．By following the order of importance.【小题4】What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A．To stress the role of dirt.B．To introduce the history of dirt.C．To call attention to the danger of dirt.D．To present the change of views on dirt.阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。

Feeling blue about the world ? “Cheer up，” says science writer Matt Ridley.“The world has never been a better place to live in，and it will keep on getting better both for humans and fo r nature.”Ridley calls himself a rational optimist—rational，because he's carefully weighed the evidence optimistic，because that evidence shows human progress to be both unavoidable and good. Andthis is what he's set out to prove from a unique point of view in his most recent book The Rational Optimist. He views mankind as a grand enterprise that，on the whole，has done little but progress for100, 000 years.He backs his findings with hard facts gathered through years of research.Here's how he explains his views.1)Shopping fuels inventionIt is reported that there are more than ten billion different products for sale in London alone.Even allowing for the many people who still live in poverty，our own generation has access to more nutritious food，more convenient transport，bigger houses，better cars，and of course，more pounds and dollars than any who lived before us .This will continue as long as we use these things to make other things.The more we specialize and exchange，the better off we'll be.2) Brilliant advancesOne reason we are richer，healthier，taller，cleverer，longer-lived and freer than ever before is that the four most basic human needs—food，clothing，fuel and shelter—have grown a lot cheaper.Takeone example.In 1800 a candle providing one hour's light cost six hours' work.In the 1880s the same light from an oil lamp took 15 minutes' work to pay for.In 1950 it was eight seconds.Today it's half second.3) Let's not kill ourselves for climate changeMitigating(减轻) climate change could prove just as damaging to human welfare as climate change itself.A child that dies from indoor smoke in a village，where the use of fassil-fuel(化石燃料) electricity is forbidden by well-meaning members of green political movements trying to save the world，is just as great a tragedy as a child that dies in a flood caused by climate change.If climaic change proves to be mild，but cutting carbon causes real pain，we may well find that we have stopped a nose-bleed by putting a tourniquet(止血带) around our necks.人类的进步是无法阻挡的，是令人乐观。

科普知识阅读理解（1）科普知识（阅读理解）由 (2013江苏,C)改编If a diver surfaces too quickly,he may suffer the bends.Nitrogen(氮) dissolved(溶解) in his blood is suddenly liberated by the reduction of pressure.The consequence,if the bubbles(气泡)accumulate in a joint,is sharp pain and a bent body—thus the name.If the bubbles form in his lungs or his brain,the consequence can be death.Other air-breathing animals also suffer this decompression(减压) sickness if they surface too fast: whales,for example.And so,long ago,did ichthyosaurs.That these ancient sea animals got the bends can be seen from their bones.If bubbles of nitrogen form inside the bone they can cut off its blood supply.This kills the cells in the bone,and consequently weakens it,sometimes to the point of collapse.Fossil(化石)bones that have caved in on themselves are thus a sign that the animal once had the bends.Bruce Rothschild of the University of Kansas knew all this when he began a study of ichthyosaur bones to find out how widespread the problem was in the past.What he particularly wanted to investigate was how ichthyosaurs adapted to the problem of decompression over the 150 million years.To this end,he and his colleagues traveled the world’s natural-history museums,looking at hundreds of ichthyosaurs from the Triassic period and from the later Jurassic and Cretaceous periods.When he started,he assumed that signs of the bends would be rarer in younger fossils,reflecting their gradual evolution of measures to deal with decompression.Instead,he was astonished to discover the opposite.More than 15% of Jurassic and Cretaceous ichthyosaurs had suffered the bends before they died,but not a single Triassic specimen(标本) showed evidence of that sort of injury.If ichthyosaurs did evolve an anti-decompression means,they clearly did soquickly—and,most strangely,they lost it afterwards.But that is not what Dr Rothschild thinks happened.He suspects it was evolution in other animals that caused the change.Whales that suffer the bends often do so because they have surfaced to escape a predator(捕食动物) such as a large shark.One of the features of Jurassic oceans was an abundance of large sharks and crocodiles,both of which were fond of ichthyosaur lunches.Triassic oceans,by contrast,were mercifully shark-and crocodile-free.In the Triassic,then,ichthyosaurs were top of the food chain.In the Jurassic and Cretaceous,they were prey(猎物) as well as predator—and often had to make a speedy exit as a result.1.Which of the following is a typical symptom of the bends?( )A.A twisted body.B.A gradual decrease in blood supply.C.A sudden release of nitrogen in blood.D.A drop in blood pressure.2.The purpose of Rothschild’s study is to se e .A.how often ichthyosaurs caught the bendsB.how ichthyosaurs adapted to decompressionC.why ichthyosaurs bent their bodiesD.when ichthyosaurs broke their bones3.Rothschild’s finding stated in Paragraph 4 .A.confirmed his assumptionB.speeded up his research processC.disagreed with his assumptionD.changed his research objectives4.Rothschild might have concluded that ichthyosaurs .A.failed to evolve an anti-decompression meansB.gradually developed measures against the bendsC.died out because of large sharks and crocodilesD.evolved an anti-decompression means but soon lost it语篇解读:本篇为科普说明文,文章主要说明了鱼龙得减压病的原因和后果。

NASA has recently found a twin Earth in the Milky Way。
Scientists said the planet was the closest to Earth that has been seen。
Kepler 452b, which has been named Earth 2，is six billion years old。
It has a 385—day year and orbits its star at the same distance as us. It is so like Earth that NASA believes it is possible that life once inhabited the planet. Kepler 452b is 60 percent larger in diameter （直径) than Earth. Scientists say that the planet received the same kind of sunshine as we do on Earth。
Thus，plants could survive if taken to the planet。
Since the planet is 1。
5 billion years older than Earth, scientists say it can show a possible future for earth. “If Kepler 452b is indeed a rocky planets, its location could mean that it is just entering an uncontrollable greenhouse period of its climate history." Said Doug Caldwell, a scientist working on the Kepler Mission。

科普知识阅读理解（1）科普知识（阅读理解）由 (2013新课标全国Ⅰ,B)改编The baby is just one day old and has not yet left hospital.She is quiet but alert (警觉).Twenty centimeters from her face researchers have placed a white card with two black spots on it.She stares at it carefully.A researcher removes the card and replaces it by another,this time with the spots differently spaced.As the cards change from one to the other,her gaze(凝视) starts to lose its focus—until a third,with three black spots,is presented.Her gaze returns:she looks at it for twice as long as she did at the previous card.Can she tell that the number two is different from three,just 24 hours after coming into the world?Or do newborns simply prefer more to fewer? The same experiment,but with three spots shown before two,shows the same return of interest when the number of spots changes.Perhaps it is just the newness? When slightly older babies were shown cards with pictures of objects(a comb,a key,an orange and so on),changing the number of objects had an effect separate from changing the objects themselves.Could it be the pattern that two things make,as opposed to three? No again.Babies paid more attention to squares moving randomly on a screen when their number changed from two to three,or three to two.The effect even crosses between senses.Babies who were repeatedly shown two spots became more excited when they then heard three drumbeats than when they heard just two;likewise(同样地) when the researchers started with drumbeats and moved to spots.1.The experiment described in Paragraph 1 is related to the baby’s .A.sense of hearingB.sense of sightC.sense of touchD.sense of smell2.Babies are sensitive to the change in .A.the size of cardsB.the colour of picturesC.the shape of patternsD.the number of objects3.Why did the researchers test the babies with drumbeats?( )A.To reduce the difficulty of the experiment.B.To see how babies recognize sounds.C.To carry their experiment further.D.To keep the babies’ interest.4.Where does this text probably come from?( )A.Science fiction.B.Children’s literature.C.An advertisement.D.A science report.语篇解读:本文为说明文。

【2013·江西临川一中压轴考试】Since we are social beings，the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships.One strength of the human conditions is our possibility to give and receive support from one another under stressful (有压力的) conditions.Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties.Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily problems.People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties.Studies over types of illnesses，from depression to heart disease，show that the presence of social support helps people defend themselves against illness，and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways.First，friends，relatives and coworkers may let us know that they value us.Our selfrespect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others in spite of our faults and difficulties.Second，other people often provide us with informational support.They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them.Third，we typically find social companionship supportive.Taking part in freetime activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting (转移注意力) us from our worries and troubles.Finally，other people may give us instrumental support—money aid，material resources，and needed services—that reduces stress by helping us resolve and deal with our problems.1．Interpersonal relationships are important because they can________.A．deal with life changesB．smooth away daily problemsC．make people live more easilyD．cure types of illnesses2．The researches show that people’s physical and menta l health________.A．has much to do with the amount of support they get from othersB．lies in the social medical care systems which support themC．depends on their ability to deal with daily worries and troublesD．is related to their courage for dealing with major life changes.3．Which of the following is closest in meaning to the underlined word “cushions”？A．takes place of B．makes up ofC．lessens the effect of D．gets rid of4．Helping a sick neighbor with some repair work in spare time is an example of________. A．instrumental supportB．informational supportC．social companionshipD．the strengthening of selfrespect5．What is the subject discussed in the text?A．Effects of stressful conditions.B．Kinds of social support.C．Ways to deal with stress.D．Interpersonal relationships.语篇解读本文是一篇议论文。
