This kind of loneliness is not serious. In fact, it is quite normal. For some people, though, loneliness can last for years. Now researchers say there are three different types of loneliness.The first kind of loneliness is temporary(暂时的). This is the most common type. It usually disappears quickly and does not require any special attention. The second kind, situational loneliness, is a natural result or a particular situation---- for example, a family problem, the death of a loved one, or moving to a new place. Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a year.The third kind of loneliness is the most severe. Unlike the second type, chronic(长期的) loneliness usually last more than two years and has no specific cause. People who experience habitual loneliness have problems socializing and becoming close to others. Unfortunately, many chronically lone people think there is little or nothing they can do to improve their condition.Psychologists agree that one important fact in loneliness is a person’s social contacts, e.g, friends, family members, co-workers,, etc. We depend on various people for different reasons. For instance, our families give us emotional support, our parents and teachers give us guidance, and our friends share similar interests and activities. However, psychologists have found that, though lone people may have many social contacts, they sometimes feel they should have more. They question their own popularity.Psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons: they are unhappy and unable to socialize and there is a connection between chronic loneliness and serious illness such as heart disease. While temporary and situational loneliness can be a normal, healthy part of life, chronic loneliness can be a very sad, and sometimes dangerous condition.51. How would you treat temporary loneliness according to the passage?A. Talk to friendsB. Just ignore itC. Go to see a doctorD. Ask your teachers for guidance52. “It〞in the last sentence of the second paragraph refers to______________.A. temporary lonelinessB. situational lonelinessC. a new placeD. sleeplessness53. The topic of the 4th paragraph is that _______________.A. one problem of loneliness is a person’s social contactsB. we depend on various people for different reasonsC. lonely people don’t have many social problemsD. lonely people don’t have many friends54. Why do psychologists want to help chronically lonely people?A. Chronic loneliness can cause family problemsB. Chronic loneliness can cause serious illnessC. Chronic loneliness cannot be overcomeD. A, B, and C are all correct55. What is the best title of the passage?A. Three kinds of LonelinessB. Loneliness and DiseasesC. Loneliness and Social ContactsD. Chronic LonelinessBWhat is happening to the timber wolf today?Native Americans and early settlers often went to sleep to the sound of a lonely lullaby(催眠曲). It was the song of the wolf howling in a distant forest. There were many wolves then. One kind was the North American timber wolf.Wolves are important to the balance of nature because they eat sick and weak animals. In Colorado, people tried to help deer by shooting wolves. But then there were so many deer that many of them starved to death.The timber wolf is on the endangered special list. Animals on this list are in danger of disappearing from the earth. People drove the wolves away by cutting down the forests to build houses, towns, and highways. Timber wolves are now found only in Canada, Alaska, Michigan, and Minnesota.This special animal may soon disappear from our forests forever. Then, its lonely howl will never be heard again.56. Animals that are in danger of disappearing from the earth are called a _______species.A. endangeredB. livingC. aliveD. lived57.

高一英语阅读理解强化试题---文化类山东省平阴县第一中学高一英语组题人：刘玉凤李玉刚师法敏杨静静张艳(1)Every people uses its own special word to show its ideas and feelings. Some of these expressions are commonly used for many years. Others are popular for just a short time. One such Americ an expression is “Where‟s the beef?” It is used when something is not as good as it is said to be. In the early 1980s “Where‟s the beef?” was one of the most popular expressions in the United States. It seemed as if everyone using it at the time.Beef, of course, is the meat from a cow, and food is more popular in America than a hamburger made from beef. In the 1960s a businessman named Ray began building small restaurants that sold hamburgers at a low price. Ray called this “McDonald‟s”. Ray became one of the richest businessmen at last in America.Other business people watched his success. Some of them opened their own hamburger restaurants. One company called “Wendy‟s” said its hamburgers were bigger than those sold by McDonald‟s or anyone else. The Wendy‟s Company began to use the expression “Where‟s the beef?” to make people know that Wendy‟s hamburgers were the biggest. The Wendy‟s television advertisement showed three old women eating hamburgers. The bread that covered the meat was very big, but inside there was only a bit of meat. One of the women said she would not eat a hamburger with such a little piece of beef. “Where‟s the beef?” she shouted in a funny way. The advertisement for Wendy‟s hamburger restaurants was success. As we said, it seemed everyone began using the expression “Where‟s the beef?”.1. _______ started McDonald‟s restaurant.A. RayB. McDonaldC. WendyD. Three old women2. Other people wanted to open hamburger restaurants because they thought _______.A. they could sell hamburgers at a low priceB. hamburgers were easy to makeC. beef was very popular in AmericaD. they could make a lot of money3. Wendy‟s made the expression known to everybody _______.A. with many old women eating hamburgersB. by a television advertisementC. while selling bread with a bit of meat in itD. at the McDonald‟s restaurant4. We can learn from the passage that the expression “Where‟s the beef?” means _______.A. The beef in hamburgers is not as much as it is said to beB. The hamburgers are not as good as they are said to beC. It is used when something is not as good as it is said to beD. Wendy‟s is the biggest(2)The yearly Academy Awards ceremony was once a private affair. Now, because of television, it is very much a public affair. Hundreds of people gather in Hollywood to see the Oscars presented to outstanding(杰出的) actors, and others involved(参与) in the motion picture industry. Millions more watch on television.It all began on May 16, 1929, when 270 men and women sat down to dinner at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. There was no secret about the winners. The names of the winners had been known for months. Janet Gaynor, for example, had won as Best Actress. Douglas Fairbanks presented her with the famous gold statue(塑像). The little statue was not then called Oscar. Like a new actor, Oscar was unknown. About six years later, it somehow got thatrenowned name. A number of explanations have been offered for its origin(由来), but nobody knows the true story for certain.Nowadays the results of the Oscar voting are kept secret. Only two people know the winners before the names are announced at the ceremony. The counting of votes is not done by one group of people but by different groups. Nobody except two members of an accounting(计票) company sees the final results.The information is not kept in open files(卷宗). Winners‟ na mes are placed in closed envelopes. The accountants each carry a complete set of envelopes to the ceremony. One set is simply a spare to be used in case something happens to the other one.1.

Two sets of envelopes are prepared for the ceremony _______.A. one for New York, one for HollywoodB. in order to be perfectly safeC. one for the ceremony, one for the newspapersD. just because that is the custom(3)Mark, a young person, tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there‟s a big difference between “being a writer” and writing. In most cases these people are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hours alone at a typewr iter. “You‟ve got to want to write,” I say to them, “not want to be a writer.”The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded(报答). When I left a 20-year job in the U. S. Coast Guard to become a writer, I had no hopes at all. What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New Y ork apartment building. It didn‟t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a us ed typewriter and felt like a real writer.After a year or so, however, I still hadn‟t got a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write. I had dreamed about it for years. I w asn‟t going to be one of those people who die wondering “what if”. I would keep putting my dream to the test — even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the shadow land of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.1.

People formed clubs and collected and exchanged postcards. Even Queen Victoria had her own private collection.When Edward was the king, the British had a cheap and good postal system. If anyone wanted to tell a friend that they were coming for tea i n the afternoon, they would send a postcard in the morning. “Drop me a card” was as common then as “give me a ring” as now.In 1902 an important step was taken. The government said that half of the side that was used for the address on the postcard could be used for messages, and the whole of the other side could be used for a picture. It was then that the simple postcard, as we know now, was created.1.

A little white lie. After looking at the notebook, Mrs Thomas says, “In everyday English, Habiba, blue sometimes means sad. Yellow means afraid.
