高一英语阅读理解试题(有答案和解析)及解析
一、高中英语阅读理解
1．阅读理解
Nothing good generally comes of a conversation that start with the words, "I think you should probably sit down before I tell you this.”
And so it came to pass. Away for Christmas, we got a call from kind friends at home, our neighbour's house had caught fire while they were out. The fire didn't spread to our house but the smoke very much did.
It's weeks of either throwing out, or sending away for specialist cleaning, every single thing into which smoke could have permeated(渗透)because the particles(微粒) are an ongoing health risk and washing isn't enough. Anything soft—sofas and carpets and children's teddy bears, clothes—is suspected. We will be seeing in the New Year in a decidedly minimalist fashion.
What I didn't expect to feel, however, is this lucky. Friends and neighbours have come together with incredible generosity. We will never again underestimate the closeness of the village community in which we live, or the innate kindness that is most people's natural reaction to trouble, and are grateful to be reminded of so much that is good. But that's not the only thing I've learned. For in a sense, we have a chance to start again.
The surprise on being forced to think about what might urgently need replacing is how short the list of essentials seems; how much we must have been hanging on to out of habit, and how much we have been conditioned to think was important.
It's all too easily assumed that family history lives in tangible(有形的)things— old photographs, a dress bought decades ago for a night heavy with memories — but that's not quite right. These things were only reminders of what we already carry with us in head and heart.
Walking through the house, sweeping up the broken glass, I realised that the answer to the old question of "What would you save in a fire? " is actually that nothing really matters but each other.
（1）What happened to the author's house?
A.It caught a fire.
B.It was affected by a fire.
C.It was broken into by friends.
D.Its windows were broken.
（2）What does the underlined word "suspected" in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.something that may be damaged.
B.something that may not be genuine.
C.something that may not be so good.
D.something that may be dangerous.
（3）What did the author expect to feel?
A.People around him were cold to others' trouble.
B.His friends and neighbours were so generous.
C.People in his community were close to each other.
D.He was so lucky to find much that was good.
（4）How will the author probably feel when the New Year finally comes?
A.Worried.
B.Surprised.
C.Excited.
D.Contented.
【答案】（1）B
（2）A
（3）A
（4）D
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者家房子受到火灾影响，物品受损，一切都需要清理，但朋友们和邻居们提供的帮助，让作者感受到了他们的善良，对他们感恩。作者感受到拥有彼此才是最重要的。
（1）考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“our neighbour's house had caught fire while they were out. The fire didn't spread to our house but the smoke very much did.”；第三段中的“every single thing into which smoke could have permeated”可知邻居家在外出时着火了，虽然火没有蔓延到作者家，但烟殃及了房子，作者家的房子受到了影响。故选B。
（2）考查词义猜测。根据第三段中的“every single thing into which smoke could have permeated(渗透)because the particles(微粒) are an ongoing health risk and washing isn't enough.”可知每件被烟雾渗透的物品都要专门清洗或扔掉，因为那些微粒威胁健康，有的仅清洗是不行的。此句涉及的那些柔软的东西被认为可能是被污染损害的东西，suspected 指的就是这些东西。故选A。
（3）考查推理判断。根据第四段中的“What I didn't expect to feel, however, is this lucky.”作者没想到的是自己家很幸运，下文提到朋友们和邻居们都提供了帮助，作者从中感受到了他们的善良。由此推知作者原来认为的是人们会对别人家的困难很冷漠，故选A。
（4）考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“We will be seeing in the New Year in a decidedly minimalist fashion.”可知作者家房子受到火灾影响，物品受损，一切都需要清理，作者认为即将到来的新年肯定是简约的。但朋友们和邻居们提供的帮助，让作者感受到了他们的善良，对他们感恩；再根据最后一段中的“I realised that the answer to the old question of ‘What would you save in a f ire? ’ is actually that nothing really matters but each other.”作者感受到拥有彼此才是最重要的。这些说明作者是满足的，故选D。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，词义猜测和推理判断三个题型的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，考生需要准确掌握细节信息，同时根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，从而选出正确答案。
2．阅读理解
Some of the best research on daily experience is rooted in rates of positive and negative interactions, which has proved that being blindly positive or negative can cause others to be frustrated or annoyed or to simply tune out.
Over the last two decades, scientists have made remarkable predictions simply by watching people interact with one another and then scoring the conversations based on the rate of
positive and negative interactions. Researchers have used the findings to predict everything from the likelihood that a couple will divorce to the chances of a work team with high customer satisfaction and productivity levels.
More recent research helps explain why these brief exchanges matter so much. When you experience negative emotions as a result of criticism or rejection, for example, your body produces higher levels of the stress hormone, which shuts down much of your thinking and activates (激活) conflict and defense mechanisms (机制). You assume that situations are worse than they actually are.
When you experience a positive interaction, it activates a very different response. Positive exchanges increase your body's production of oxytocin, a feel-good that increases your ability to communicate with, cooperate with and trust others. But the effects of a positive occurrence are less dramatic and lasting than they are for a negative one.
We need at least three to five positive interactions to outweigh every one negative exchange. Bad moments simply outweigh good ones. Whether you're having a conversation, keep this simple short cut in mind: At least 80 percent of your conversations should be focused on what's going right.
Workplaces, for example, often see this. During performance reviews, managers routinely spend 80 percent of their time on weaknesses and “areas for improvement”. They spend roughly 20 percent of the time on strengths and positive aspects. Any time you have discussions with a person or group, spend the vast majority of the time talking about what is working, and use the remaining time to address weaknesses.
（1）The underlined phrase “tune out” in Paragraph 1 probably means
A. stop listening
B. change one's mind
C. sing aloud
D. be crazy
（2）What will happen if you experience negative emotions?
A. The situations are sure to become worse.
B. Much of your thinking will be prevented.
C. You will feel an urge to improve and become better.
D. You'll be motivated to resolve conflicts with people.
（3）From Paragraph 4, we can learn that
A. we need a positive feeling to beat one negative feeling
B. positive interactions have greater effects than negative ones
C. our conversation should center on what needs improvement
D. the effect of negative feelings lasts longer than that of positive ones
（4）What is the best title for the passage?
A. Harmful Negatives
B. More Positive Interactions
C. How to Be a Productive Manager
D. Less Time on Strengths and Positive Aspects 【答案】（1）A
（2）B
（3）D
（4）B
【解析】【分析】本文是说明文。主要讲述通过一些关于日常经验的研究证明，当你因为批评或遭到拒绝而经历负面情绪时，你的身体会产生较高水平的应激激素，它关闭了你的
思维，激活冲突和防御的机制。而当你体验到积极的互动时，积极的交流会增加你与他人沟通、合作和信任的能力。但是积极的影响不如消极的影响更持久，它需要三到五个积极的互动才能去掉一个负面互动。这给我们一个启示，在谈话时尽可能多的积极互动，才会调动人的积极性。
（1）考查猜测词义题。根据第一段中的内容可知，一些关于日常经验的最好研究是建立在积极和消极互动率的基础上的，这证明了盲目的积极或消极会使其他人感到沮丧或烦恼，或者干脆把不理睬。分析选项的内容可知A项符合题意。
（2）考查细节理解题。根据第三段中的中间部分“When you experience negative emotions as a result of criticism or rejection, for example, your body produces higher levels of the stress hormone, which shuts down much of your thinking and activates （激活） conflict and defense mechanisms （机制）.” 可知，你经历负面情绪时，你的身体会产生较高水平的应激激素，它关闭了你的思维机制和激活你的防御机制。由此可判断B项是正确的。
（3）考查细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句“But the effects of a positive occurr ence are less dramatic and lasting than they are for a negative one.”可知，积极面事件的影响不如消极的影响更持久。由此判断出D项正确。
（4）考查主旨大意题。通读全文可知，一些关于日常经验的研究证明，当你因为批评或遭到拒绝而经历负面情绪时，你的身体会产生较高水平的应激激素，它关闭了你的思维，激活冲突和防御的机制。而当你体验到积极的互动时，积极的交流会增加你与他人沟通、合作和信任的能力。但是积极的影响不如消极的影响更持久，它需要三到五个积极的互动才能去掉一个负面互动。这给我们一个启示，在谈话时尽可能多的积极互动，才会调动人的积极性。分析选项可知B项正确。
【点评】科普文客观题的解题方法1.“找”。读完材料，审完题干(题干不可不审清)，可根据题干确定选项的大致范围，开始找与选项相对应的句子，然后再进行合理的想象、推理及判断。有时候选项的语句散见于文章的各处，也一定找准原句。2.“比”。比较时重在关注意思、关注逻辑关系。有时需要统观全篇，不能只盯住一处。3.“判断”。推断时，切不可只凭主观臆断，一定要找到确切的根据，找到合理的解释。
3．阅读理解
Parents may think they're smart about where they store medicines, but their kids are smarter. Nearly 60,000 young children are rushed to the hospital every year after getting into medicines not meant for them, according to a new report from Safe Kids Worldwide.
The report finds little connection between what parents know about storing medicines safely and what they actually do. Nine out of 10 parents know that medicines should be stored up and away out of reach and sight, but 7 out of 10 of them admit not doing that. They leave medicines out on kitchen counters, sinks and sofas, believing babies and toddlers(学步者)aren't tall enough or strong enough to reach them. Unfortunately, they probably can. Children as young as a month have ended up in an emergency department because they'd been poisoned by getting into a medicine that was left within reach.
Most poisonings related to medicines---particularly among babies and toddlers---occur within their home. Kids develop rapidly and they want to explore their environment. At certain ages
they have a lot of hand-to-mouth activity, and so it's very common for them to explore their environment and then try to taste what they find.
The new Safe Kids worldwide report includes a survey of 2,000 parents with children under age 6. While the number of children visiting an emergency department for accidental poisonings had declined since the 2010 maximum, the decline has slowed in recent years.
Prescription and over-the-counter medicines cause the most severe poisonings, but vitamins and supplements(补充品)can also cause problems. There are steps families can take to lower the risk for an accidental medicine poisoning.
（1）Why are children poisoned according to the text?
A. Some of the medicines at home taste nice.
B. There is something poisonous in medicines.
C. Kids have easy access to medicines at home..
D. Kids are curious to explore the environment
（2）What can we learn from the text?
A. Vitamins and supplements can do good to kids.
B. The team made a survey of 2,000 kids under age 6.
C. 600 parents surveyed could keep medicines properly.
D. Kids are usually smart at storing medicines at home.
（3）What could be the best title for the text?
A. Parents' Casual Behavior Leads to Kids Poisoned
B. The Number of Kids Poisoned Has Declined Lately
C. Nearly 60,000 Children Are Poisoned by Medicines
D. Kids Are Facing the Risk of Being Poisoned at Home
【答案】（1）C
（2）D
（3）A
【解析】【分析】本文是是一篇说明文，介绍了由于父母存放药品不当导致孩子药物中毒的调查结果。
（1）考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“ At certain ages they have a lot of hand-to-mouth activity, and so it's very common for them to explore their environment and then try to taste what they find.”在一定的年龄,他们有很多的手和嘴活动,所以他们很容易去探索他们的环境,然后尝试品尝他们发现的东西在家里,他们很容易碰到药品，故选C。
（2）考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“Parents m ay think they're smart about where they store medicines, but their kids are smarter. ”父母可能会认为他们很聪明，他们在哪里储存药品，但他们的孩子更聪明。故选D。
（3）考查主旨大意。根据倒数第三段中的“Most poisonings related to medicines---particularly among babies and toddlers---occur within their home.”很多中毒事件是发生在家中的，再根据文章大意，故选A。

4．阅读理解
Home from the Navy, I started school at Greenville College in my hometown of Illinois. I'd been out of high school for four years, but my high school headmaster, Mr. Gardner, invited me to a Valentine's Day dance party at school. The thought of seeing my former teachers was exciting. So I agreed.
When Friday came, I cleaned up, dressed up and drove to the high school gym. I chatted with my teachers and approached Mr. Gardner to thank him before leaving. Just then, the band started playing and a young girl stood up to sing. One look at and I was crazy—I had never seen such a beautiful girl!
I asked Mr. Gardner who she was, and he answered, “That's Marilyn Riley, Cut Riley's daughter.” I was shocked to say the least. They lived just around the corner from me. I walked across the gym floor to introduce myself, “Hi, I'm Jack Joseph.”
“I know who you are,” was her not-too-friendly response.
“Would you like to dance?” I asked. “No! I'm working,” she shot back.
“Can I call you next week for a movie date?” I asked. “No,” was her response.
For the next month I phoned, trying to set up a date.

I pulled alongside her and asked if she needed a ride, half expecting her to say no. instead, she stepped over the roadside and sat down on the seat next to me.

5．阅读理解
There's a song by the great Jamaican singer Bob Marley called So Much Trouble In The World. Marley understood that part of the reason why there are so many problems in the world is the lack of tolerance between people. The UN understands this too --- that's why it made Nov 16th "International Day for Tolerance".
But first of all, what is tolerance? According to French philosopher Voltaire, tolerance "s the consequence of humanity. We are all formed of frailty (脆弱) and error; let us pardon each other's fool --- that is the first law of nature."
Very often, people don't realize that they're intolerant. This is because intolerance has a lot to do with ignorance. For example, the UN's campaign is in part about the treatment of females by males. But often, the behavior of men toward women is intolerant because men don't put themselves in the shoes of women.
It's worth thinking a little about the words "tolerance" and "intolerance". Are they the best words to describe the evils of which we're speaking here? To agree to be "tolerant" of someone isn't necessarily a very respectful thing. When someone is tolerated, it implies that there's something wrong with them.
Still, what Voltaire said stands: We humans are not perfect and this weakness is something that we all share. That's the reason we should be tolerant. It's a little like generosity. We can give things to another person, and we can also give our forgiveness.
（1）What's the purpose of the UN "International Day For Tolerance"?
A. To arouse people's awareness of tolerance among people.
B. To celebrate the founding of the UN.
C. To solve the problem of global warming.
D. To change peopled opinion towards globalization.
（2）Why do men behave intolerantly towards women?
A. Because men don't realize the purpose of the UN.
B. Because men are physically stronger than women.
C. Because men don't appreciate the shoes of women.
D. Because men are not willing to understand women.
（3）Why is it meaningless to use the words "tolerance" and "intolerance"?
A. Because they are hard to pronounce in English.
B. Because they don't express the exact meaning people refer to.
C. Because they can't be translated into other languages.
D. Because they can't be used in a respectful way.
（4）In what sense is "tolerance" similar to "generosity"?
A. Humans are advised to treat others better.
B. Humans leant to find faults in others.
C. Humans need to give something to others,
D. Humans will change their attitudes to others.
【答案】（1）A
（2）D
（3）B
（4）C
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了"国际宽容日"，联合国"国际宽容日"的目的是唤起人们对宽容的意识。
（1）考查推理判断。根据第一段中的“Ma rley understood that part of the reason why there are so many problems in the world is the lack of tolerance between people. The UN understands this too --- that's why it made Nov 16th 'International Day for Tolerance'.”可推断，世界上的人们缺乏包容，因此联合国把11月16日设置为“国际宽容日”是为了唤起人们的包容意识。故选A。
（2）考查推理判断。根据第三段中的“But often, the behavior of men toward women is intolerant because men don't put themselves in the shoes of women.”可知，男性对女性不包容是因为他们不愿意设身处地的为女性着想，不愿意理解她们。故选D。
（3）考查推理判断。根据倒数第二段中的“Are they the best words to describe the ev ils of which we're speaking here? To agree to be 'tolerant' of someone isn't necessarily a very respectful thing. When someone is tolerated, it implies that there's something wrong with them.”可知，对某人宽容并不一定是一件值得尊重的事情，某人如果被包容，就暗示着某人有问题，因此推断使用“宽容”或者“不宽容”是没有意义的，因为它们不能准确表达人们所指的意思。故选B。
（4）考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“It's a little like generosity. We can give things to another person, and we can also give our forgiveness.”可推断，在我们给与别人谅解时，宽容有点像慷慨。故选C。
【点评】本题考点涉及推理判断题型的考查，是一篇文化类阅读，要求考生根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，从而选出正确答案。
6．阅读理解
Mrs. Jones was my first patient when I started medical school—and I owe her a lot.
She was under my care for the first two years of my medical training, yet I knew very little about her, except that she was thin, perhaps in her mid 70s. It might seem rather negligent not to know the basic facts of my patient ,but I had a valid reason—Mrs. Jones was dead, and had been dead for about three years before I made a patient of her. Mrs. Jones was the dead body that I dissected（解剖）over the first two years of my medical training.
Of course, her name wasn't really Mrs. Jones, but it seemed a little impolite to be conducting research into someone's body without even knowing its name, so out of courtesy, I thought she should have one. “Me and Mrs. Jones, we've got a thing going on,” went the song coming out of the radio as I unzipped the bag of her on my first day — and so she was christened.
As the months passed, I soon forgot that Mrs. Jones had, in fact, once been alive. One day, though, she suddenly became very human again. I'd been dissecting Mrs. Jones a good 18 months before I got around to the uterus（子宫）. After I'd removed it, the professor came up to m e, “If you look at the opening carefully, you'll see that the angle indicates that this woman has had several children, probably three.” I stared at it, and I suddenly felt very strange. This woman, who had given me something incredibly precious that I'd begun to take for granted, wasn't a dead body. She was a person, a mother, in fact.
At my graduation, the same professor came over to congratulate me. I explained the story about Mrs. Jones to him, and recalled what he'd told me about her having children and how that had affected me all those years ago.
“Well,” he said, “at the beginning of your training you had a dead body and managed to turn it into a person. Now you're a doctor, the trick is to have a person and not turn them into a dead body,” an d he laughed, shook my hand and walked away.
（1）Why didn't the author know much about Mrs. Jones?
A. Because he was irresponsible for his patients.
B. Because he wasn't allowed to ask for her privacy.
C. Because he didn't know her until she passed away.
D. Because he was too careless while dissecting her.
（2）How did Mrs. Jones get her name?
A. It was passed down from the seniors of my school.
B. It came from a song being played when we first met.
C. She was named after a well-known singer I liked best
D. It just occurred to me when I opened the bag of her.
（3）What could be the author's feeling for Mrs. Jones now?
A. Grateful.
B. Pitiless.
C. Hateful.
D. Guilty.
（4）What did the professor imply by his words in the last paragraph?
A. Medical students are able to bring the dead back to life.
B. Being a doctor has nothing to do with the medical training.
C. Good doctors never fail to save their patients from dying.
D. Medical staff ought to have respect for life and humanity.
【答案】（1）C
（2）B
（3）A
（4）D
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，作者讲述了和琼斯夫人之间的故事，说明了医务人员应该尊敬生命和人道。
(1)考查推理判断。根据第二段中的“It might seem rather negligent not to know the basic facts of my patient ,but I had a valid reason—Mrs. Jones was dead, and had been dead for about three years before I made a patient of her.”可知琼斯夫人在去世后，把遗体捐给了医学院，所以在她去世之前，作者并不认识她，故选C。
(2)考查细节理解。根据第三段中的“‘Me and Mrs. Jones, we've got a thing going on,’ went the song coming out of the radio as I unzipped the bag of her on my first day —and so she was christened.”可知当我们第一次见面的时候，收音机里正在播放一首歌《我和琼斯夫人》，她就这样被命名了，故选B。
(3)考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“Mrs. Jones was my first patient when I started medical school—and I owe her a lot.”可知现在，我对琼斯夫人充满感激，故选A。
(4)考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“he said, ‘at the b eginning of your training you had a dead body and managed to turn it into a person. Now you're a doctor, the trick is to have a person and not turn them into a dead body,’ and he laughed, shook my hand and walked away.”可知教授说得这段话的意思是：“在你刚开始训练解剖尸体的时候，你要设法把尸体变成一个人。现在，你成为一名医生了，窍门就是不要把人变成尸体。”这名教授说得这些话暗含的意思是医务人员应该尊敬生命和人道，故选D。

7．阅读理解
Mexico sites on an island plateau (高原) surrounded by volcanic peaks, which makes air quality a constant concern for people who live there.
In April, the country took a decisive step toward improving air quality by enacting a temporary ban on private and Federal vehicles in the city. The rule forbids people from driving in the city one day each week and one Saturday each month. Electric vehicles, government service vehicles, public transport options and school buses are not included in the ban.
Mexico City isn't the first urban center to be involved in car-free living. But the ban is more than an awareness-raiser. It was enacted with the direct aim of solving air pollution. In March, the city sank into a deep brown haze of smog when the pollution levels passed the 200 mark. The city ordered some 1.1m of the area's 4.7m cars off the streets and also offered free bus and subway rides.
Mexico City's temporary vehicle ban raises questions about the best ways to improve urban air quality. India, whose citizens breathe some of the world's dirtiest air, has tried a variety of
solutions. Earlier this year, the Indian government started a 4% sales tax on new-car purchases. Beijing also has experience with cleaning the air. The city introduced alternate-day rules in advance of the 2008 Olympic Games, which produced good results. And then there is the London congestion (拥挤) charge, introduced in 2003. The charge has had a measurable effect on air quality.
For now, Mexico City — named by the United Nations as the most polluted city on the planet in 1992 — can look forward to the start of the region's rainy season, when daily showers will help lo clean the air.
（1）How did Mexico ban vehicles in the city?
A. By banning private and Federal vehicles one day a week.
B. By forbidding private and public vehicles every Saturday.
C. By limiting the number of new cars.
D. By prohibiting the vehicles except public ones.（2）What did the government of Mexico do when carrying out the ban on vehicles?
A. Raised the number of public vehicles.
B. Offered free bus and subway rides.
C. Introduced more travel options.
D. Encouraged citizens to leave the city.
（3）What may contribute to improving the air quality in Mexico?
A. Alternate-day rules.
B. Tax rises.
C. Congestion charge.
D. The rainy season.（4）What's the best title for the passage?
A. Mexico —an Island Plateau
B. A Variety of Bans on Vehicles in Mexico
C. Should Cities Be Car-free Zones
D. How to Improve Air Quality
【答案】（1）A
（2）B
（3）D
（4）C

8．阅读理解
Dutch beachcomber (海滩拾荒者) Wim Kruiswijk has accumulated a collection of 1,200 messages-in-bottles over the course of nearly 4 decades and has responded to almost all of them, 68-year-old Kruiswijk says that his unusual hobby began in 1983 when he found three drift bottles (漂流瓶) on his local beach, each containing letters and return addresses. He wrote to all three addresses and was surprised to receive responses from each one. It was this experience that aroused his interest in hunting and collecting messages in bottles, and he hasn't stopped looking for them since.
“I find my messages in bottles on the beach of Zandvoort, where I live, and on the Dutch Islands,” Kruiswijk recently told Great Big Story. “Messages in bottles is slow mail. It takes you days, or weeks, or months to find a bottle. ”
In the early years, Kruiswijk would find as many as 50 bottles a year, but since 2000 that has slowed to around 20-30 finds, mainly due to beach cleaning efforts. He believes that the rise of the Internet has also played a role in the diminishing number of messages in bottles, telling Dutch newssite PZC, “I used to get a response at half the bottle messages that I answered. Now that's less; many people want 'instant satisfaction'.”
Throwing a message in a bottle out into the sea is a longstanding human tradition dating back to the time of the Greek philosopher Theophrastus, about 310 BC，who used the bottles to study water currents. Scientists still apply the method to this day, as a means to help researchers develop ocean circulation maps, and to crowdsource scientific studies of ocean currents.
In the past bottles have also been used to send distress messages from sailors in trouble. They also have been used for memorial tributes, or to send loved ones' ashes on a final journey. One of the more common uses though is just to send invitations out to prospective pen pals, a quaint notion in these modern times, but, as Kruiswijk so clearly shows, an effective one.
（1）What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us?
A. Kruiswijk found secrets hidden in drift bottles.
B. What made Kruiswijk become a beachcomber.
C. How Kruiswijk formed the hobby of collecting drift bottles.
D. Kruiswijk liked to do some research on bottles thrown into the sea.
（2）How did Kruiswijk feel the first time he received response from drift bottles?
A. Satisfied.
B. Asionished.
C. Frightened.
D. Disappointed.
（3）Why do Kruiswijk find fewer drift bottles than before?
A. People hate to receive messages from strangers.
B. Many drift bottles have not been washed up onto the beaches.
C. Drift bottles appearing on the beach are cleared up rapidly.
D. Fewer people are interested in Kruiswijk's message in bottles.
（4）What's the purpose of Theophrastus using the bottles?
A. To ask for rescue.
B. To look for a pen pal.
C. To study ocean currents.
D. To send a message to his loved person.
【答案】（1）C

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道，漂流瓶是一个长期存在的人类传统，一直被用于发送遇险信息，纪念亲人或发邀请函，还用于帮助研究人员进行洋流的研究。
(1)考查段落大意。第二段主要讲述了68岁的Kruiswijk的不寻常的爱好始于1983，当他在当地的海滩发现三个有信件和回信地址的漂流瓶，他给每个漂流瓶留的地址都写了回信，却惊讶地收到了每个人的回复。所以这种经历激起了他对瓶装的信息的搜集。由此可知本段主要描写了Kruiswijk如何养成了收集漂流瓶的嗜好。故选C。
(2)考查细节理解。根据第二段中的“He … was surprised to receive responses from each one”可知，当他收到回信后他是非常惊讶的。surprised“惊讶的”，与asionished是同义词。故选B。
(3)考查推理判断。根据第四段中的“but since 2000 th at has slowed to around 20-30 finds, mainly due to beach cleaning efforts. He believes that the rise of the Internet has also played a role in the diminishing number of messages in bottles”可知，主要是由于清洁海滩的努力，以及互联网的兴起也对漂流瓶数量的减少起到了作用。故选C。
(4)考查细节理解。根据第五段中的“the time of the Greek philosopher Theophrastus, about 310 BC, who used the bottles to study water currents. Scientists still apply the method to this day, as a means to help researchers develop ocean circulation maps, and to crowdsource scientific studies of o cean currents.”可知，在公元前310年的希腊哲学家西奥弗拉特斯时期，用瓶子来研究海洋水流，而且科学家现在仍在用。故选C。

9．阅读理解
Even if you've never been to Phoenix, you know this about the place It's hot. From June to September, the temperature can easily surpass the century mark. But that doesn't stop hikers from attempting the 1.3-mile hiking to the top of the city's famed Camelback Mountain. Signs warn that the trail is "extremely difficult". If you continue, a posted checklist suggests at least a liter of water per person. And if you're still not stopped, another sign farther up declares: "If you're halfway through your water, turn around!"
Unfortunately, many people to not take the warnings seriously. Fortunate y, Scott Cullymore does. The 53-year-old Cullymore can be found hiking up and down Camelback a couple of times a day, giving out cold bottles of water to worn-out hikers. He has helped hydrate so many hikers that he has earned a heavenly nickname: the Water Angel.
Cullymore was on Camelback Mountain one day in 2015 when a British tourist died after being
lost for nearly six hours in the July heat. That experience inspired him to start helping people caught unaware by the cruelty of Mother Nature. "They underestimate the mountain, and they overestimate what they can do, and they get themselves in trouble." he warned.
One hiker who was offered water agrees. "You think you know the heat, but then you get out here in the desert and it surrounds you like a blanket," said Austin Hill, who was hiking with a high school friend. They were lucky, he said pointing to Cullymore. "We ran into this Good Samaritan here." And with that, the Water Angel goes in search of another hiker in need.
（1）What is the first paragraph mainly about?
A. The risks involved in the hiking.
B. The seriousness of the warnings.
C. The distribution of signs that warn hikers.
D. The influence of the temperature on hikers.（2）Why did some hikers on Camelback Mountain get in trouble?
A. They were not well trained in hiking.
B. They forgot to take enough water with them.
C. They were too optimistic about the situation.
D. They were not fit enough to hike the mountain.
（3）What can we know about Austin Hill?
A. He agreed to help others.
B. He was saved by Cullymore.
C. He hiked alone in the desert.
D. He regretted taking a blanket.
（4）What is the best title for the text?
A. The Camelback Mountain
B. Surviving the Heat
C. Hikers in Need
D. The Water Angel
【答案】（1）A
（2）C
（3）B
（4）D
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，远足者低估夏日的Camelback Mountain 同时高估自己的能力，所以在远足途中遇到麻烦，Cullymore了解情况后决定帮助他们。Cullymore通过在炎炎夏日给那些远足者提供水而被人们亲切地称为“水天使”。
（1）考查段落大意。根据第一段中的”From June to September, the temperature can easily surpass the century mark“；”Signs warn that the trail is ‘extremely difficult’“；”If you continue, a posted checklist suggests at least a liter of water per person. “和“If you're halfway through your water, turn around!”可知在夏天去Camelback Mountain远足是非常艰难的，原因有两个：一个是温度很高，另一个是水。故选A。
（2）考查细节理解。根据第三段中的”They underestimate the mountain, and they overestimate w hat they can do, and they get themselves in trouble.“可知人们低估了这座山，同时高估了自己的能力，因此他们陷入麻烦中，即对情况感到过于乐观导致他们涉险。故选C。
（3）考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的”They were lucky, he said pointing to Cullymore. ‘We ran into this Good Samaritan here.’”可知Austin Hill说他们很幸运，因为他们遇到了Cullymore这个乐善好施的人，故推测Cullymore救了他。故选B。
（4）考查主旨大意。根据第二段中的“He has helped hydrate so many hikers that he has earned a heavenly nickname: the Water Angel.”和最后一段中的“And with that, the Water Angel goes in search of another hiker in need.”以及文章主要内容可知，本文主要叙述了Cullymore 通过在山上给登山者发水来帮助他们，从而得到“水天使”的昵称，即本文主要讲述“水天使”的故事。故选D。
【点评】本题考点涉及细节理解，推理判断，段落大意和主旨大意四个题型的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，要求考生在捕捉细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，概括和归纳，从而选出正确答案。
10．阅读理解
The American newspaper has been around for about three hundred years. In 1721, the printer James Franklin, Benjamin's older brother, started the New England Courant, and that was what we might recognize today as a real newspaper. He filled his paper with stories of adventure, articles on art, on famous people, and on all sorts of political subjects.
Three centuries after the appearance of Franklin's Courant, few believe that newspapers in their present printed form will remain alive for long, Newspaper companies are losing advertisers, readers, market value, and in some cases, their sense of purpose at a speed that would not have been imaginable just several years ago. The chief editor of the Times said recently, “At places where they gather, editors ask one another, 'How are you?', as if they have just come out of the hospital or a lost law case.” An ar ticle about the newspaper appealed on the website of the Guardian, under the headline “NOT DEAD YET.”
Perhaps not, but the rise of the Internet, which has made the daily newspaper look slow and out of step with the world, has brought about a real sense of death, Some American newspapers have lost 42% of their market value in the past three years. The New York Times Company has seen its stock（股票）drop by 54% since the end of 2004, with much of the loss coming in the past year. A manager at Deutsche Bank suggested that stock - holders sell off their Times stock. The Washington Post Company has prevented the trouble only by changing part of its business to education; its testing and test — preparation service now brings in at least half the company's income,
（1）What can we learn about the New England Courant?
A. It is mainly about the stock market.
B. It carries articles by political leaders.
C. It marks the beginning of newspapers.
D. It remains a successful newspaper in America.（2）What can we infer about the newspaper editors?
A. They often accept readers' suggestions.
B. They caw a lot about each other's health.
C. They stop doing business with advertisers.
D. They face great difficulties in their business.（3）Which of the following found a new way for its development?
A. the Washington Post.
B. The Guardian.
C. The New York Tinier.
D. New England Courant.
（4）How does the author seem to feel about the future of newspapers”?
A. Satisfied.
B. Hopeful.
C. Surprised.
D. Worried.
【答案】（1）C
（2）D
（3）A
（4）D
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了美国报纸的由来，以及现在面临的挑战和做出的调整。
(1)考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“the printer James Franklin, Benjamin's older brother, started the New England Courant, and that was what we might recognize today as a real newspaper.”可知，James Franklin创办的New England Courant就是我们今天所知的真正的报纸，也就标志着美国报业的开始，故选C。
(2)考查推理判断。根据第二段中的“Newspaper companies are losing advertisers, readers, market value”可知，报社正在逐渐失去广告商，读者和市场价值，以及后面编辑的话"At places where they gather, editors ask one another, 'How are you?', as if they have just come out of the hospital or a lost law case."，编辑们现在见面聊天的时候都会互相问候“你还好吗”仿佛刚出院或输了一场官司，其实隐含的意思就是因为报纸业的不景气，编辑们现在正面临着困难，所以这个问候应该是你们报社生意怎么样？故选D。
(3)考查细节理解。根据最后一段可知，找到一种新的发展方式的是The Washington Post 《华盛顿邮报》。故选A。
(4)考查推理判断。通读全文，作者列举了报业所面临的种种问题，可以判断作者对此很担忧。故选D。

11．阅读理解
Sometimes we start a day with the previous day still in mind. We think about the mistakes we made in the previous day, how things went wrong, and how we felt bad about it. No wonder it becomes difficult to focus on the current day.
Here are some steps on how to start your new day fresh:
⒈Take time to evaluate your day
At the end of a day, take some time to think about it. The purpose of this thinking time is not to regret how bad your day was, how things went wrong, or how people treated you badly. This won't do you any good. Instead, the purpose of this thinking time is to extract（吸取）lessons which you can bring to the following day.
⒉Make a commitment to apply the lessons
After you extract the lessons, you should make a commitment to apply them. To do so, find some actionable things you can do to apply the lessons. Next, remind yourself to do them. You may write them down if you want to.
⒊“Close” your day
After you have spent the time to think about the day and extract the lessons, make a decision to “close” the day. You are done with it; don't think about it anymore.
⒋Bring only the lessons to the next day and nothing else
After you “dose” a day, you should not bring anyth ing out of it to the next day except for the lessons you extract. Focus on applying the lessons to the present. This way you will be able to start your day fresh without the burden of yesterday.
（1）What will happen if we think too much about the past?
A. There will be a disaster.
B. There will be good results.
C. We won't have a peaceful mind.
D. We surely won't finish today's task.
（2）When should we draw lessons from the past mistakes?
A. At the end of a day.
B. When we make mistakes.
C. At the beginning of a day.
D. When we regret making the mistakes.
（3）Why should we extract lessons from the past day?
A. To set them down.
B. To consider them again.
C. To make a better decision.
D. To apply them for future use.
【答案】（1）C
（2）A
（3）D
【解析】【分析】本文为应用文。本文告诉我们不能每天太多地想过去的事，这样会让我们难以把注意力放在当天，文中还告诉我们一些开始新的一天的四个步骤。
（1）推理判断题。根据第一段的内容可知，如果我们每天一开始就想前一天所犯的错误的话我们就很难把注意力放在当前的这一天，那么我们的心情就很难平静下来分析选项可知，C项（我们不会有和平的心态。）符合题意，故答案选C。
（2）此题属于细节理解中的语言转述型。这是一类间接事实细节题，答案与题目在意义上运用了词义之间的转述关系，即正确选项是原文有关词语和句子的另一种表达。根据“Close” your day中的After you have spent the time to think about the day and extract the lessons, make a decision to “close” the day.：在一天结束前，你花时间思考过去的一天并汲取教训后，这一天就结束了，即在这一天结束时来思考过去的一天并吸取教训。题干When should we draw lessons from the past mistakes??文章内容After you have spent the time to think about the da y and extract the lessons, make a decision to “close” the day. 与At the end of a day相符，故答案选 A。
（3）细节理解题。根据Make a commitment to apply the lessons部分中的After you extract the lessons, you should make a commitment to apply them. To do so, find some actionable things you can do to apply the lessons.可知，我们应该从过去吸取教训就是在以后运用。分析选项可知D项（将它们应用于将来）符合题意，故答案选D。

12．阅读理解
The sound that woke Damian Languell at 8:15 in the morning was so loud he assumed it came from inside his house in Wade, Maine. As he got up to investigate, he heard another sound, this one coming most definitely from outside. Looking out of his bedroom window, he noticed a tree enveloped in smoke about 500 yards away. A car wrapped around the tree's base, its engine on fire.
Grabbing buckets of water, he and his wife ran to the crash site. Up close, the accident looked worse. The car was split nearly in two, and the tree was where the driver's seat ought to have been, as if planted there. No one should have survived this crash, and yet there was 20- year-old Quintin Thompson, his terrified face pressed against the driver's side window, in visible pain.
Languell tried putting out the fire with his buckets of water but failed. When the flames got into the front seats, he knew he had to get the young man out. So Languell opened the car's back door and climbed in. Using a pocket knife he'd brought with him, he cut through Thompson's seat belt. Now that Thompson was free, Languell pulled him out, and dragged him to safety before the entire car was in flames.
It is empathy that drove Languell to help, just as he said, "My heart goes out to Thompson. When you are that close to that level of hurt, you feel it so directly." For his heroic action, Languell was added to the list of real-life heroes changing the world.
（1）Where was the first sound actually from?
A.A house on fire.
B.A car crash.

D.The basement.
（2）What do we know about Quintin Thompson?
A.He saved his car from fire.

D.Responsibility.

A.Daring and generous.
B.Caring and grateful.
C.Courageous and noble.
D.Ambitious and reliable.

（4）C
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇记叙文，Damian Languell勇敢地救出了一起车祸中的幸存者Quintin Thompson，因为他的英勇行为，Languell被列入了现实生活中改变世界的英雄名单。
（1）考查推理判断。根据第一段中的“The sound that woke Damian Languell at 8:15 in the morning was so loud he assumed it came from inside his house in Wade, Maine.”清晨8点15分，Damian Languell被吵醒的声音太大了，以至于他以为那声音是从缅因州Wade的家中传出来的；以及“A car wrapped around the tree's base, its engine on fire.”一辆汽车绕在树的底部，发动机着火了，可推知，第一个声音实际上是车祸发出的。故选B。
（2）考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的“Now that Thompson was free, Languell pulled him out, and dragged him to safety before the entir e car was in flames.”现在Thompson自由了，Languell把他拉了出来，在整辆车起火之前把他拉到安全的地方，可知，Quintin Thompson 成功获救。故选B。
（3）考查词义猜测。根据最后一段中的“My heart goes out to Thompson. When you are that close to that level of hurt, you feel it so directly.”我很同情汤普森。当你接近那种程度的伤害时，你会直接感受到)可推知，正是这种同情心促使Languell伸出援手的，可知，划线单词意思为“同情心”。故选C。
（4）考查推理判断。根据倒数第二段中的“So Languell opened the car's back door and climbed in. Using a pocket knife he'd brought with him, he cut through Thompson's seat belt. Now that Thompson was free, Languell pulled him out, and dragged him to safety before the entire car was in flames.”他用随身携带的小刀割断了Thompson的安全带。现在Thompson 自由了，Languell把他拉了出来，在整辆车起火之前把他拉到安全的地方)可知，Languell 不怕危险将Thompson从车里救了出来。由此可知，Languell很勇敢；根据最后一段中For his heroic action, Languell was added to the list of real-life heroes changing the world.(因为他的英勇行为，朗格尔被列入了现实生活中改变世界的英雄名单可推知，Languell的行为很高尚。故选C。

高一英语阅读理解试题（生态、环保类） 生态类 (1) A Wolf in Danger What 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.

高一英语阅读理解题20套(带答案) 一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 Even a small increase in light activity such as washing dishes, or walking around the house might help prevent an early death among older adults, researchers say. "It is important for elderly people, who might not be able to do much moderate intensity（强度）activity, that just moving around and doing light intensity activity will have strong effects and is beneficial," said Ulf Ekelund, who led the research. Published in the BMJ, the latest research was based on a review of eight studies involving a total of more than 36,000 people with an average age of almost 63 years. Participants were followed for five to six years; 2,149 deaths were recorded. All of the studies involved monitoring the physical activity of individuals who had activity trackers, and the studies did not rely on self-reporting, which, the experts noted, could be unreliable. For each study participants were split into four equal-sized groups, based on the total amount of time spent actively, and the risk of death assessed, taking into account factors such as age, sex, body mass index, and socioeconomic status. This was then repeated for an amount of activity at different levels of intensity. The results were analyzed together to give an overview. The team found a greater amount of activity was linked to a lower risk of death. The results held for different intensities of activity. The team said the study supported the message "sit less and move more and more often". However, the study had limitations. It only looked at the situation for middle age and older adults, most of whom lived in the US or Europe, and some of the effect could be due to those people with a higher risk of death being less likely to be related to physical activity. Physical activity levels also were only measured over one period of time. Dr Gavin Sandercock, from the University of Essex, said the results suggested moving more brought bigger benefits than simply reducing the time of sitting, another factor measured in the study. "This study reinforces the important message that getting the least active people to do even just a little bit more physical activity can have important public health benefits," he said. （1）Which of the following may Ulf Ekelund suggest elderly people do? A.lying on the sofa reading. B.Doing a little gentle gardening. C.Going out to hike with friends. D.Playing basketball sometimes. （2）What can we know about the research? A.It lasted about 8 years. B.The researchers admitted they used fake data. C.The participants didn't include younger people. D.Some participants died because of doing too much physical activity （3）What is the author's attitude towards the researchers' conclusion? A.Doubtful

And only a good doctor can help me get a good lawyer .Now that he had helped me find a good doctor, it was only fair that I should pay him. But every day I went to see the doctor, I had to wait about 50 minutes. He would see two or three patients at the same time, and often stop treating one so as to see another. Yet he charged me $115 each time .The final examination report consisted of ten lines, and it cost me $215. My lawyer was all smiles the first time we met. But after that he avoided seeing me at all. He knew very well the other party was responsible for the accident, yet he hardly did anything. He simply waited
新闻报道类 （I）★★★ MONTREAL (Reuters) – Crossing the US-Canada border（边界）to go to church on a Sunday （安全）rules. cost a US citizen ＄10,000 for breaking Washington’s strict new security The expensive trip to church was a surprise for Richard Albert, who lives right on the Canadian border. Like the other half-dozen people of Township 15, crossing the border is a daily occurrence for Albert. The nearby Quebec village of St. Pamphile is where they shop, eat and go to church. There are many such situations in these areas along the largely unguarded 5,530-mile border between Canada and the US-which in some cases actually runs down the middle of streets or through buildings. As a result, Albert says he did not expect any problems three weeks ago when he returned home to the US after attending church in Canada, as usual. The US customs（海关）station in this are is closed on Sundays, so be just drove around the locked gate, as he had done every weekend since the gate appeared last May, following a tightening of border security. Two days later. Albert was told to go to the customs office, where an officer told him he had been caught on camera crossing the border illegally（非法）. Ottawa has given out special passes to some 300 US citizens in that area so they can enter the country when Canadian customs stations are closed, but the US stopped a similar program last May. That forces the people to a 200-mile detour along hilly roads to get home through another border checkpoint. Albert has requested that the customs office change their decisions on the fine, but he has not attended a Sunday church since. “I feel like I’m living in a prison,” he said. 1．We learn from the text that Richard Albert is .

高一英语阅读理解专项训练及答案及解析 一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 Last week, Vodafone started a test of the UK's first full 5G service, available for use by businesses in Salford. It is part of its plan to trial the technology in seven UK cities. But what can we expect from the next generation of mobile technology? One thing we will see in the preparation for the test is lots of tricks with the new tech. Earlier this year, operators paid almost ￡ 1.4 billion for the 5G wavelengths, and to compensate for that cash, they will need to catch the eye of consumers. In September, Vodafone used its bit of the range to display the UK's first hologram (全息) call. The Manchester City captain Steph Houghton appeared as a hologram in Newbury. It isn't all holograms, however: 5G will offer faster internet access, with Ofcom (英国通讯管理局) suggesting that video that takes a minute to download on 4G will be available in just a second. The wider application is to support connected equipment on the "internet of things" -not just the internet-enabled fridge that can reorder your milk for you, but the network that will enable driverless cars and delivery drones (无人机) to communicate with each other. Prof William Webb has warned that the technology could be a case of the emperor's new clothes. Much of the speed increase, he claims, could have been achieved by putting more money in the 4G network, rather than a new technology. Other different voices have suggested that a focus on rolling out wider rural broadband access and addressing current network coverage would be more beneficial to the UK as a whole. Obviously, 5G will also bring a cost to consumers. It requires a handset for both 5G and 4G, and the first 5G-enabled smart phones are expected in the coming year. With the slow pace of network rollout so far, it is likely that consumers will end up upgrading to a new 5 G phone well before 5 G becomes widely available in the next couple of years. （1）Why does Prof William Webb say "the technology could be a case of the emperor's new clothes"? A. He is in favor of the application of the new technology. B. 5G will bring a cost to consumers in their daily life. C. 5G helps people communicate better with each other. D. He prefers more money to be spent on 4G networks. （2）The underlined word "addressing" in the fourth paragraph has the closest meaning to________. A. making a speech to B. trying to solve C. managing to decrease D. responding to （3）The last paragraph indicates that . A. it'll take several years .to make 5G accessible to the public in the UK B. 5G service shows huge development potential and a broad market C. customers are eager to use 5G smart phones instead of 4G ones D. it's probable that 5G network rollout is speeding up in Britain （4）What do we know about the text?
