一窗山海的阅读理解题答案_阅读理解题及答案 ①人的生活目标，往往决定他对风景的看法。 ②然而人人看法有异。就如有朋友说，山海只是属于假期的，是一种遥远的风景。 ③还有些朋友，当看到某些挂历上的遥远之处，就会向往住在那里的人们，说他们幸福，能世世代代拥有好空气、天然的水、无污 的宽阔土地，还有真实又自然的食物。但假如那时真有一位能神给 予法力让他眨一下眼就梦境成真，我打赌他眼睫毛都不敢动一下。 并非风景遥远，而是，向往只不过是都市人一种用来松弛身心的精 神瑜珈，尤其在冷气房里，在场面撑得十分疲倦的会议之后，在周 末下着狂风暴雨的窗外，心里有点毫无着落的感觉涌来，那种都市 人常有的习惯性风景幻想，就会变成虚拟场面。 ④我想，对于风景我是绝对执著的。风景的虚实其实都在于那个人自己的感受。有些人不满15岁就向自己许下承诺，非要在众目睽 睽之下干出一番事业闪烁峥嵘不可。这么美好的理想也真叫人动容，只可惜35岁之后再去找回这些人.就知道周而复始的不过是黄粱影子。 ⑤也有人，或许很早就向往另端无边的宽阔，这有时也许会让我们看到一些早熟的诗人或灵气浪漫的画家。可惜预告片虽多，真正 上演的机会甚少;有也是快上快下，大浪冲几回，社会出入口处只有 整齐的队形。 ⑥现实就是如此。当人开始意识到自己该重新衡量环境的选择时，身边的种种现实，早已架构成层层阻碍。况且，人一出世就有许多 等着接收的附赠品，宗室籍贯、文化背景，以及许多不能脱身的责 任与承诺，通常都是在人还没有能力为自己编剧之前就纷纷而至的。戏演下来，就给自己无法离场的借口，除非大限突至。就算年轻人 向往翅膀，年幼少小也无可奈何，只得渐渐投入现实，不久也就同 而化之。什么当年看法，什么第三种角度，统统置于脑海底层，要
篇一：谈考试阅读答案 篇二：谈考试阅读答案 3.主持考试的人也是在受考验。 4.（1）形容骄傲自大，过低地评估对手。（2）流非常多汗。篇三：谈考试阅读答案 谈考试梁实秋①少年读书要考试，考试是人生苦事。 ②考试已经是苦事，而大都是在炎热的夏天举行，苦上加苦。我清晨起身，常见三面邻家都开着灯读书学习不停止；我出门散步，河畔田埂上也常见有三三两两的孩子们手不释卷。这都是一些好学之士么？也不尽然。我想其中有很大一部分是在临阵磨枪。曾听说有“读书乐”之说，而在考试之前把若干知识填进脑壳的那一段苦修，怕没有什么乐趣可言。 ③其实考试只是一种测验的性质，和量身高体重的意思差不多，事前无须恐惧，临事更无须张皇。考试的时候，把你知道的写出来，不知道的只好暂且搁置起来，如此而已。但是考试的后果太大了。万一名在孙山之外，那一份落第的滋味好生难受，其中有惭愧，有怨恨，有沮丧，有悔恨，见了人羞答答，而偏有人当面谈论这回事。这时节，人的笑脸都好像是含着讥讽，枝头鸟鸣都好像是在嘲弄，很少人能不觉得人生乏味。其后果还不止如此，这可能是生活上一大关键，眼看着别人春风得意，自己从此走向下坡。考试的后果太重大，所以大家都把考试看得很认真。其实考试的成绩，老早的就由自己平时读书时所决定了。 ④对于身受考试之苦的人，我是很同情的。受苦的不只是考生，主持考试的人也是在受考验。先说命题，出题目来难人，好像是最轻松不过，但也不是这样的。千目所视，千手所指，是不能掉以轻心的。大概出题目不能太僻，也不能太宽泛。假使考留学生，作文题目是《我出国留学的计划》，固然人人都可以诌出一篇来，但很可能有人早预备好一篇成稿，这样很难评分而不失公道。出题目要恰如其分，不空泛，不含糊，实在很难。在考生挥汗应考之前，命题的先生早已汗流浃背好几次了。再说阅卷，那也可以说是一种灾难。曾有人接连十二天阅卷之后，晕厥在地。阅卷百苦，还有一乐，荒谬而可笑的试卷常常可以使人笑倒，精神为之一振。我们不能不叹服，考生中真有富有想象力的奇才。最令人不愉快的卷子是字迹潦草的那一类，喻为涂鸦，还嫌太雅，简直是墨盒里的蜘蛛满纸爬！有人在宽宽的格子中写蝇头小字，也有人写一行字要占两行，有人全页涂抹，也有人只字未写。 ⑤有人挺艳羡美国大学不用入学考试。那种免试升学的办法是否适合我们的国情，是一个问题。据说考试是我们的国粹，考试到了科举可以说是登峰造极，三榜出身才是唯一正规的出路。至今，考试在我们的生活当中已成为不可缺少的一部分。英国的卡赖尔在他的《英雄与英雄崇拜》里曾特别提出，中国的考试制度，作为选拔人才的办法，实在太高明了。其要义之一是如何把优秀分子选拔出来放在社会的上层。平心而论，考试和选举一样，在想不出更好的办法之前，考试还是不可废的。我们现在所能做的，是如何改善考试的办法，要求其简化，要求其合理，不要让大家把考试看作是伤害身心的酷刑！ 12．从大的方面来看，选文写到的考试之苦分两个方面，请概况。（2分）13．品析选文第④段中画横线句子的表达效果。（2分）14．选文多处运用了举例论证，试举一例作简要分析。（2分）15．文中提到“其实考试的成绩，老早的就由自己平时读书时所决定了”“中国的考试制度，作为选拔人才的办法，实在太高明了”，针对这些说法，谈谈你是如何看待考试的。（2分） [1] 篇四：谈考试阅读答案 谈考试 梁实秋①少年读书要考试，考试是人生苦事。②考试已经是苦事，而大都是在炎热的夏天举

Passage 1 CBBCC If you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprised to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are. Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high-class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go anywhere in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you have some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety. The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests, but also serve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they naturally go to the free dining rooms to have their meals. The most they would do to show their good faith is to wave their registration card to the waiter. With such a loose check, you can easily use any old registration card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge. The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate. From then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly. With so many loopholes(漏洞) in everyday life, surely Finland must be a heaven to those who love to take “petty advantages”. But the strange thing is, all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms. And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns always act on good faith in everything they do, living in such a society has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”. In a society of such high moral practice, what need is there for people to be on guard against others? 1. While taking a taxi in Finland, _____ A. a passenger can go anywhere without having to pay the driver B. a passenger pays two US dollars for a taxi ride C. a passenger can never be turned down by the taxi driver wherever he wants to go D. a passenger needs to provide good faith demonstration before they leave without paying 2. We know from the passage that big hotels in Finland_____ A. provide meal for only those who live in the hotels B. provide meals for any diners C. provide free wine and charge for food D. are mostly poorly managed 3. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? A. The workers in Finland are paid by the hour. B. The bosses in Finland are too busy to check the working hours of their employees. C. The workers are always honest with their working hours. D. The workers and their bosses will make an agreement in advance about the pay. 4. The word “those” in the last paragraph probably refers to _____ A. people who often take taxis B. people who often have meals in big hotels C. people who are dishonest D. people who are worthy of trust
英语阅读理解专项习题及答案解析及解析 一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 Every day I see advertisements in the newspapers and on the buses claiming that it is easy and quick to learn English. There is even a reference to William Shakespeare or Charles Dickens to encourage learners even more. When I see advertisements like this, I don't know whether to laugh or cry. But many people must believe these ridiculous claims, or else the advertisements would not appear. Of course it is clear that students who go to England to learn English have a great advantage over others, but too many cannot afford to do so. Some go to the opposite extreme and think they can teach themselves at home with dictionaries. But it is wrong to assume that each word in English has a precise equivalent in another language, let alone produces good pronunciation and intonation. Most teaching is still based on behaviorist psychology. Behaviorists are fond of making students repeat phrases and making sentences. If we were parrots or chimpanzees, these methods might be successful. A large number of theorists seem to think it is a pity we aren't, because it would make it easier to use their methods. In my personal opinion, no one can ever learn to speak English or any other language unless he is interested in it. Human beings, unlike parrots and chimpanzees, do not like making noises unless they understand what the noises mean and can relate them to their own lives. It is worth remembering that language is a means of communication. What they listen to and read cannot be a formula. It must be real. There is another relevant point worth mentioning here. We need other people to talk to and listen to when we communicate. They can work with us and practice the unfamiliar forms with us in real situations, talking to each other about real life language. （1）Many people believe advertisements in the newspapers and on the buses probably because . A. they are encouraged by William Shakespeare or Charles Dickens B. they are eager to learn and then believe them C. the ways advertised can help them to save time and efforts D. the ways advertised prove effective and helpful （2）What may behaviorists argue towards English learning? A. Human beings make more interesting noises than parrots and chimpanzees. B. Human beings should relate their speech to their own lives. C. Language is a formula with lots of repetitions and practices. D. Language is a means of communication. （3）What opinion does the author hold? A. A quick method that suits all the students does exist. B. English can be mastered within a very short period of time. C. Each word in English has a precise equivalent in another language. D. No one can learn English well without being interested in it.
《特殊的考试》阅读附答案 阅读文段《特殊的考试》，回答问题。 ①她是穷人家的女孩儿，父母举债供她读完大学，就在她刚刚走出校门的时候，积劳成疾的父亲查出患了肺癌。 ②子欲养而亲将不待，女孩儿欲哭无泪：工作尚无着落，家里一贫如洗，即便卖血，也凑不够住院费。医学院护理系毕业的她只能将父亲安顿在家里，叮嘱母亲悉心照料，然后到一家家医院去应聘。当走进那家蜚声医界的私立医院，再一次面对审视的目光时，她忍不住泪流满面。她哭着诉说了自己的困境，恳请能马上工作，拯救危在旦夕的父亲。女孩儿的孝心感动了院方，医院破例未经考试便留下了她，说是试用一个月。 ③女孩儿拼命地工作，只要能顺利通过试用，四千元的月薪不仅维系着父亲生的希望也是她美好未来的开端。她的勤恳努力终于赢得了信任，半个月后，护士长便分派她作高级病房的责任护士，独立承担一位肺癌患者的治疗护理。 ④执行医嘱时，女孩儿惊呆了，医生曾经给父亲开出的，就是这样一张相同的处方：一种进口的化疗药物，三百多元一支，每日一次静脉注射三支。女孩儿镇静地忙碌着，谁也看不出她心里掀起了怎样的惊涛骇浪：那种粉末状的药物溶入生理盐水后仍然是无色透明的，一瓶澄清的液体，谁也看不出配药前后的区别！然而治疗室内，只有她一个人。三支药紧紧地攥在女孩儿手里，她觉得那就是父亲的生命。只要她每天下班后回家执行化疗，她那慈爱的父亲，就有活下去的希望。而一切，都可以神不知鬼不觉。 ⑤女孩儿迅速地藏起了三支药，将生理盐水放入治疗盘，面色平静的将它端进了病房。“爸，护士给你换药来了。”陪护的是一位和她年龄相仿的女孩儿，一声轻唤，让她的心一颤：躺在床上的，也是命悬一线的父亲。“这种药有特效，用了它咱就好了。”温柔的声音在安慰着父亲。端着治疗盘的手微微地颤抖了，她就用颤抖的手，将输液管从滴空的药瓶内拔出来，插到了那瓶盐水里。只耽误一个疗程，她硬着心肠想，只要他们发现没有效果，马上会换另一种药物，反正病人有的是钱。 ⑥可是一回到治疗室，女孩儿就瘫坐在椅子上。她想象着接下来的场面：推开门，若无其事地走进值班室打开换衣柜，将三支药放在自己的手包里……突然就打了个寒噤，像是刚刚挣脱了一个可怕的梦，她清醒了，清醒地意识到：那段路每走一步，都将践踏自己清白的良心。 ⑦只是几分钟，却仿佛挣扎了一个世纪。女孩儿鼓足勇气叫来了护士长，嗫嚅着承认：“12床正在滴注的盐水里，我……我没有配药……”护士长绽开了一个欣喜的笑容：“真 的吗？你连这个经验都有呀？我正想提醒你呢，化疗之前，如果患者正在输液，必须用盐水冲净管中的残留药物。”没容女孩儿再说什么，护士长向她竖起了大拇指：“你真棒！” ⑧女孩儿的试用期就在那一天提前结束了，院方同她签订聘用合同的同时，还预支了半年工资让她给父亲治病。女孩儿欣喜若狂，热泪盈眶，向着决定她命运成全她孝心的人们，深深地鞠躬致谢！后来女孩儿才知道，那其实是一场特殊的考试。所有的一切都被护士长尽收眼底，只要那三支药放进手包，等着她的必将是被炒的命运。 ⑨慎独，那是一个人应具备的道德素养，因为有许许多多的时刻，监督着我们一举一动的，只有我们自己的良心。注：慎独，是古人的一种修养方法，指人独处时谨慎不苟。 1、整体感知选文，用简洁的语言概括选文的故事情节，写在下面的空白处。 试用→→坦白→ 2、选文第五段中划线的句子运用了哪种描写人物的方法？揭示了女孩儿怎样的内心世界？

Passage 1 Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening. One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one’s own. Then, in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the countr y. If one likes garden, one can spend one’s free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of Nature. Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight’s (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night. 1. Which of the following statements is NOT true? A. People who love Nature prefer to live outside the city. B. All the people who work in London prefer to live in the country. C. Some people enjoying city life prefer to work and live inside London. D. Many nature lovers, though working in London, prefer to live outside. 2. With the same money needed for ________, one can buy a little house with a garden in the country. A. getting a small flat with a garden B. having a small flat with a garden C. renting a small flat without a garden D. buying a small flat without a garden 3. When the garden is in blossom, the one ________ has been rewarded. A. living in the country B. having spent time working in the garden. C. having a garden of his own. D. having been digging, planting and watering 4. People who think happiness lies in the city life would feel that ________ if they had to live outside London. A. their life was meaningless B. their life was invaluable C. they didn’t deserve a happy life D. they were not worthy of their happy life 5. The underlined phrase “get away from” in the 3rd paragraph refers to ________. A. deal with B. do away with C. escape from D. prevent from 很多在伦敦工作的人喜欢住在伦敦郊外，然后每天乘火车、汽车和公交车去上班或上学。这也就意味着他们不得不早出晚归。
