句子
1.leaving the family even worse off
2.Instead；with nothing to eat
3.as if
4.so convincing that 单项
1.解析：选B。本题考查cut相关短语的用法。cut out删掉；cut off隔离；cut up 切碎；cut through刺穿。根据句意用cut off。
2.解析：选C。句意：到他认识到已经中计的时候，再做任何事情也就无济于事了。根据句意，可知本句讲的是现在的事情，故用现在时，排除B、D两项，本句强调“已经中计”，应用完成时，故答案为C。
3.解析：选D。本题考查动词短语的辨析。pick up偶然、无意中学会……。
4.解析：选A。句意：我不知道为什么我的房间总是最后一个被打扫。此处考查动词不定式作定语。the first，the last等名词后面要接不定式作定语，房屋被打扫要用被动语态，所以选A。
5.解析：选C。本题考查虚拟语气。would rather后通常接不用that引导的从句，从句用虚拟过去式，从句不表示“过去”，而表示“现在”或“将来”。
6.解析：选A。句意：妈妈，恐怕要下雨了。天空中的云越来越密集了。build up 逐渐增加，符合句意。break up打碎，分裂，解体；stay up不睡觉，熬夜；get up起床。

10.解析：选C。此处考查“keep＋宾语＋宾语补足语”的结构。the children与entertain之间为逻辑上的动宾关系，所以要用过去分词作宾语补足语。
自编二答案
选词填空
1. Up to now,
2. Be content with
3. Starring in
4. Broke into
5. Went by
6. Cut off
7. Picked out
8. Badly off
单项
1.解析：选D。本句考查It takes(sb.)sth.(to do sth.)。原句转换成陈述句语序为：It will take...deaths to convince the authorities of the need to test these drugs.。
2.解析：选D。前后两句之间为因果关系，所以选Therefore。
3.解析：选D。由Up to now可知，此句应该使用现在完成时态。
4.解析：选D。failure表示“失败的人或事”时，是可数名词；表示“失败”时，是不可数名词。第一空指“失败者”，所以用a；第二空指“以失败告终”，所以不加冠词。
5.解析：选C。根据前面的looked here and there判断，我们的老师“好像”在找东西，所以用as if。
6.解析：选C。make sense of理解，明白。句意：不管我怎么努力读，就是不明白这个句子的意思。
7.解析：选A。have no sense of direction是习惯用法，指没有方向感。sense of sight/hearing/smell/taste/touch视/听/嗅/味/触觉。
8.解析：选A。句意：在这样一个公共场所，你不可以吃、喝，甚至不可以走动，你会有什么样的感觉？sense感觉；matter问题；case情况，状况；opinion观点。根据题意选A。
9.解析：选D。have a sense of...“有……感”，句意：我敢肯定戴维能找到图书馆，他有很好的方向感。
10.解析：选D。考查非谓语动词。第一空用seated或sitting作宾补，第二空处是with复合结构，由fix one’s eyes on sth.可知应用过去分词fixed。
11.解析：选C。分词作非限制性定语，逻辑主语the food与taste是主动关系，故用现在分词。
12.解析：选A。此题考查v.-ing作表语。
13.解析：选A。句意：听！你听到有人正在求救吗？本题考查非谓语动词作宾补。设空处与宾语之间为逻辑上的主谓关系，故排除D项；不定式作感官动词或使役动词的宾补要省去to且不表示动作正在进行，故排除C项；因为表示动作正在进行，故排除B项；现在分词calling 表主动且表正在进行，故为答案。
14.解析：选D。考查非谓语动词。wear 和其逻辑主语之间是主动关系，故这里用现在分词作宾语补足语。
15.解析：选C。句意：科学家们坚信笑对身心健康有积极影响。be convinced of
＝be completely sure about sth.坚信，深信，确信；effect常与on连用，意为“对……

高考英语阅读理解基础练习题（29） 阅读理解 When did you last visit a shopping mall? In many places, the answer would be"last weekend．" Some people go even more often．Why? Malls offer goods andservices all in one place: food, clothing, things for their houses, entertainment, evenmedical services．So, are they one of the highlights of modern civilization?Environmental activists would say no and would go even further, arguing thatconsumer behavior is causing a huge environmental disaster．They cause consumers' ignorance of the side effect of their shopping—urban sprawl （扩大）． Social scientists agree that patterns of development have changed the landscape alot．Before 1950, most people lived in towns or cities and either walked to work ortook public transportation．Only very wealthy people had automobiles．Farmers livedin rural areas or far-away villages and came into town only when they needed thingsthey couldn't produce themselves．If you stared at the landscape you would see townssurrounded by the countryside． Now automobiles become affordable and people are quick to make use of them．Ambitious workers could live in suburbs, just outside cities, which have started togrow rapidly．As long as there is lots of cheap land there, no one pays much attentionto the usage of that land．Malls, fast food restaurants, cinemas, and such spread out inlarge, flat buildings．These one-storey buildings and their parking lot take up too muchspace．Many farmers think they are better off selling their land than growing crops．Noone has realized once the land is built up in urban sprawl, the good farming land willbe ruined forever．There is no way to preserve （保护） it．Only in recent years have people come to miss the old way of life as they havelooked into the problems of unconditional growth．Now people realize that urbansprawl has come with serious environmental problems．The bad effects that sprawlbrings about include air and water pollution, loss of agricultural land, traffic jams, andso on．Many scholars think it's time to analyze the problems better so we can developproper policies to control further sprawl．Some think the best way to do is to educatecitizens．

《烛之武退秦师》原文 九月甲午，晋侯、秦伯围郑，以其无礼于晋，且贰于楚也。晋军函陵，秦军泛南。 译文:晋文公、秦穆公联合围攻郑国，因为郑国曾对晋文公无礼，并且在与晋国结盟的情况下又与楚国结盟。晋军驻扎在函陵，秦军驻扎在泛南。 佚之狐言于郑伯曰：“国危矣，若使烛之武见秦君，师必退。”公从之。辞曰：“臣之壮也，犹不如人；今老矣，无能为也已。”公曰：“吾不能早用子，今急而求子，是寡人之过也。然郑亡，子亦有不利焉！”许之。 译文: 佚之狐对郑伯说：“郑国处于危险之中，如果能派烛之武去见秦伯，一定能说服他们撤军。”郑伯同意了。烛之武推辞说：“我年轻时，尚且不如别人；现在老了，做不成什么了。”郑文公说；“我早先没有重用您，现在危急之中求您，这是我的过错。然而郑国灭亡了，对您也不利啊!”烛之武就答应了。 夜缒而出。见秦伯曰：“秦、晋围郑，郑既知亡矣。若亡郑而有益于君，敢以烦执事。越国以鄙远，君知其难也。焉用亡郑以陪邻邻之厚，君之薄也。若舍郑以为东道主，行李之往来，共其乏困，君亦无所害。且君尝为晋君赐矣；许君焦、瑕，朝济而夕设版焉，君之所知也。夫晋，何厌之有既东封郑、又欲肆其西封，若不阙秦，将焉取之阙秦以利晋，唯君图之。” 译文: 夜晚用绳子将烛之武从城上放下去，去见秦伯，烛之武说：“秦、晋两国围攻郑国，郑国已经知道要灭亡了。如果灭掉郑国对您有好处，那就烦劳

2014高考英语阅读理解基础训练极品题（14）及答案 阅读理解------------ SYDNEY—Australia’s economic boom is encouraging a steady stream of unexpected visitors looking for work: Americans. U.S. citizens are heading to Australia in small but growing numbers as near-10% unemployment at home drives more to look for jobs Down Under, where China’s thirst for iron ore (矿石) and energy is transforming the Pacific nation into an economic powerhouse. A bricklaying student from Silver Trowel, a leading provider of quality education and training in the building and construction industry, apprentices (当学徒) on a building project in Western Australia, where workers are in short supply. Daniel Davila, a 23-year-old floorer from Camarillo, California made the 14-hour move across the Pacific two years ago. He had been forced to take a job stocking shelves at a local grocery store for $8.90 an hour when he couldn’t get work fixing floors. On a good day in Australia, he now makes as much as 50 Australian dollars (US$50.21) an hour—about twice the amount for a typical flooring job in the U.S. He plans to start his own flooring business. “I can make what I did in a week in the U.S. in less than a day here,” said Mr. Davila, who lives near a mining boom town in Western Australia. Australian government figures show just under 7,000 Americans currently working on long-term visas, an 80% jump over the past five years. U.S. citizens are now the third-largest group applying for so-called 457 work visas, after British and Indian nationals. Americans with degrees in areas such as accounting or mine engineering, as well as other skilled workers, can obtain a nonrenewable(不可续期的) permit for as much as a three-year stay. After that, they can apply for the renewable 457, which allows up to a four-year stay. The need for workers is particularly pressing in Western Australia. The mining state’s unemployment rate was 4.5% in Nov ember, below the national average of 5.2%.

2014高考英语阅读理解基础精品训练题（114）及答案 阅读理解----------B Alzheimer's disease affects millions of people around the world. American researchers say the disease will affect more than one hundred million people worldwide by the year twenty fifty. That would be four times the current number. Researchers and doctors have been studying Alzheimer's patients for a century. Yet the cause and cure for the mental sickness are still unknown. However, some researchers have made important steps towards understanding it. Several early signs of the disease involve memory and thought processes. At first, patients have trouble remembering little things. Later, they have trouble remembering more important things, such as the names of their children. There are also some physical tests that might show who is at risk of developing Alzheimer's disease. The tests look for proteins in brain and spinal cord fluid. The proteins appear to be found only in people with the disease. The protein tests correctly identify the presence of the disease in about ninety percent of patients. Now, a much simpler physical test to predict Alzheimer's risk has been developed. Researchers found that trouble with the sense of smell can be one of the first signs of Alzheimer's. Using this information, they developed a test in which people were asked to identify twelve familiar smells. These smells included cinnamon, black pepper, chocolate, paint thinner, and smoke. The study continued for five years. During this period, the same people were asked to take several tests measuring their memory and thought abilities. Fifty percent of those who could not identify at least four of the smells in the first test had trouble with their memory and thinking in the next five years. Another study has shown a possible way to reduce a person's chances of developing Alzheimer's disease in old age. Researchers in Chicago found that people who use their brains more often are less likely to develop Alzheimer's disease. Those who read a newspaper, or play chess or word games are about three times less likely to develop
