一、阅读理解
A
Dog owners who lived near Chicago’s Soldier Field knew how to watch out for the coyote (草原狼).
The wild,doglike animal lived somewhere among the tall buildings near the football stadium.As the sun went down each evening,the coyote would lie in the grass next to a parking lot,waiting.Within his view,people walked their dogs along a bike trail.Each night,the coyote would charge at the first dog to come along.
Dr.Stanley Gehrt,a scientist at the Ohio State University,led the team that solved the problem.Besides studying coyotes,he and his co-workers taught people ways to avoid problems with coyotes.In short,he says,“Don’t feed them,and manage your pets.”
The secret to the coyote’s success is intelligence.To survive in the wild,a coyote must hunt small animals,and avoid becoming a meal for wolves or bears.“This way of living creates a super-smart animal,”Dr.Gehrt says.One of the smartest changes coyotes made was to hide during the day and come out mainly at night in the city.
Coyotes have also learned to avoid their biggest killer:cars.One coyote has been seen sitting patiently at a busy crossroads.She may not know how traffic lights work,but she has learned that the cars will soon stop long enough for her to cross the street.
The male (雄性的) that charged at passing dogs near Soldier Field is an example.Dr.Gehrt and his co-workers had already been watching the coyote for months,and the animal had always avoided dogs.But now he and his mate had a home with young coyotes on top of the parking lot nearby.He was charging at the dogs to protect his family.
The researchers solved the problem.When the coyote pair appeared in the evening,they ran toward them,shouting and shaking a noisemaker—a coffee can with coins rattling (发出咔嗒咔嗒的声音) inside.“Usually,that’s all you have to do,”Dr.Gehrt says.“You do it once,and you’ll never see that coyote again.” Finally,the coyote pair moved out of the parking lot.
1.What troubled the dog owners living near Soldier Field?
A.Their dogs being attacked by the coyote.
B.Their outdoor play being lessened.
C.Limited space to walk their dogs.
D.Increasingly heavy traffic.
2.What did the researchers find out about city coyotes?
A.They were not as smart as dogs.
B.They were getting used to city life.
C.They needed more care from people.
D.They usually hunted during the day.
3.How did the researchers solve the problem with the coyote pair?
A.By frightening them away.
B.By throwing cans at them.
C.By catching them in the evening.
D.By sending them away from Chicago.
4.What’s the best title for the text?
A.Smart Animals in the City
B.Meet the Coyote Next Door
C.Watch Out for the Coyote Pair
D.Our Love-hate Relationship with Coyotes
B
When my boss started talking about pension arrangements,it suddenly dawned on me:I was going to be stuck working in an office for the next 40 years.I’d always dreamed of working outdoors but I ended up doing a law degree at the University of the West of England in Bristol,thinking that this would bring me a better job.
After graduating,I became an adviser.I enjoyed the work,but knew it wasn’t the right career for me.At this point,my 98-year-old grandma died,leaving me enough money to pay for an agricultural course.I decided to study agriculture at the Royal Agricultural College in Cirencester.I loved the programme.I spent my holidays from milking cows to helping in farm shops.I spent time lambing (照料母羊产羔羊) on a beautiful hill farm in Wales.I’d get up at 5 am in the morning and go out to care for the lambs that had been born overnight.
In my old job,getting up early to go to the office was a struggle.It’s easier on a farm,where you know there are animals that rely on you.They’re living things,and if you don’t turn up something serious might happen to them.
I’ve also been fortunate enough to find a job as industry communications manager with Red Tractor,the largest food assurance scheme (保障计划) in the UK.The role is very varied:one day I might talk at an agricultural show,educating children about where their food comes from;the next day I could be managing the design of the new food and farming standards.
My advice to anyone wanting a career change is to seize the moment.To those interested in working in agriculture,try to get as much work experience as you can.
5.What does the underlined part “dawned on” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A.Hit.
B.Moved.
C.Excited.
D.Satisfied.
6.What does the author think of her job on a farm?
A.Busy.
B.Tiring.
C.Difficult.
D.Enjoyable.
7.What did the author do at Red Tractor?
A.She milked cows.
B.She helped in farm shops.
C.She took care of lambs on the farm.
D.She gave speeches on agriculture to children.
8.What is the author’s advice to readers?
A.Work as a volunteer on a farm.
B.Make a career change as soon as possible.
C.Take the chance to do what you want to do.
D.Get enough work experience before looking for a job.

三、短文改错
One of my favourite things to do in my free time is do voluntary works.I’ve volunteered for a variety of difference organisations.The activities include simple,everyday ones like cleaning our city square and take dogs for walks at an animal rescue centre.By volunteering,I’ve not only gained valuable experience and also built confidence in talking about strangers.I was used to be a shy person,but my volunteering experience gave us the opportunity to meet new people.Doing an activity I wouldn’t normal
do with other volunteers made me had a really fun time.These are just few of the reasons why I think volunteering is worthwhile.

很“难过(a heavy heart)”。
2.B由“a big cardboard sign”以及“To the person who stole my bicycle ...Bring it back”可知,“我”决定给小偷留张“便条(note)”。
3.C由本句中的“Armed with yellow paint”以及下文中的“writing the sign”可知,“我”用

13.D由该空前的“I accepted”可知,此处指他的善意让“我”很“感动(touched)”。
14.B由“A snowstorm came the next day”以及“my bike was stolen ...the next weekend”可知,“我”的丈夫建议“我”把警告牌“拿下来(take down)”,“我”“拒绝了(refused)”。
15.A见上题解析。
16.A由“It was a middle-aged woman”可知,此处表示“又有人敲门(another knock on the door)”。
17.B“she drove twice around the block”的目的是能够“完全(fully)”读懂警告牌。
18.B此处表示如果“我”“找到(find)”一辆自行车的话,“我”给你拿过来。
19.C“我”在大门口挂警告牌,希望小偷能看到,将自行车还回来。没想到,却收到了陌生人的善意和帮助,故这个警告牌在“改变着(changing)”情况。

高考英语阅读理解专项训练100篇 (名师传授解题技巧+实战练习，值得下载) 一、阅读理解解题技巧 阅读理解题是考查学生对活的语言材料的理解能力，即通过阅读材料获得信息的能力。具体说来，阅读理解能力测试的主要要求是：（1）掌握所读材料的主旨大意，以及用以说明主旨大意的事实和细节；（2）既理解具体事实，也理解抽象的概念；（3）既理解字面意思，也理解深层含义，包括作者的态度、意图等；（4）既理解某句、某段的意义，也理解全篇的逻辑关系，并能根据文章进行推理和判断；（5）既能根据材料所提供的信息去理解，也能结合中学生应有的常识去理解。根据这几项能力测试的要求，试题中常采用如下几种题型：事实询问题、推理判断题、数据推算题、识图解意题和主旨大意题。根据这一测试要求和题型设计，答题时可以采取如下解题技巧和对策。 1．首先解题时要充满自信。由于平时有些同学对做阅读理解时存在一种畏惧心理，因此考试做题时心理就难免会产生紧张感，特别是阅读时再遇到几个生词就头脑发胀，从而使自己的思路更加模糊不清。其实这是完全没有必要的，因为阅读中遇到几个生词或几个难以理解的句子是常有的事，也是正常现象。因为按大纲要求，试卷中允许有不超过3%的生词，只要认真分析，仔细阅读，这些生词和句子很可能并不影响你的解题。所以答题之前首先要有必胜的信心。 2．扫读全文，理解全文主旨大意。拿到一篇文章，首先要快速扫读全文，虽为扫读，但不可漫不经心，阅读时也应聚精会神，力求可能多地获取材料信息，只是这次遇到生词和难句先不必去处理，不要因纠缠文中的个别生词和难句而影响了对全文的主旨大意的了解。
3．对症下药，各个击破。了解全文的大概意思之后，再把短文的问题简单看一遍，弄懂题意，然后带着问题再去寻读全文。这次阅读过程中要善于抓文章中的关键词句。寻读也就是迅速的查找需要了解的信息，是为某些特定的问题而阅读，因此阅读时要有较强的针对性，对与问题有关的数据，词句等仔细阅读，认真理解，同时结合不同考查内容的题型，采取如下解题对策： （1）事实询问题：这类试题通常是以疑问词what，who，when，where，why，how 等引起的特殊问句，就文章中某一词语、某一句子、某一段落或某一具体细节和事实进行提问。解答此类试题首先要弄清题目和每一个选项的含义，然后按题目要求寻找与之相关的细节，正确估计答案来源，同时注意题目和文章中的暗示作用。特别注意辨别各种信息，确认各种信息。 （2）推理判断题：此题要求我们通过表面文字信息去推测文章隐含的意思，对文章的发展情节及作者的态度、意图等做出合乎逻辑的的推理判断。这种题要求我们在阅读时要抓住文章的主题和细节、从分析文章的结构入手，根据上下文的内在联系，充分挖掘文章的深层含义。对暗含在文章中事件的因果关系，人物的动机，以及作者未言明的倾向、态度、意图、观点进行合乎逻辑的推理、分析和判断。同时善于抓住文中实质性的东西，不要被带假象的表面信息或似是而非的东西所迷惑。并且注意推断作者态度时要力求从作者的态度、观点去思考，切勿想当然，凭个人的观点习惯看法来回答的问题。 （3）数据推算题：此题要求我们就文章提供的数据，以及数据与文章中其他信息的关系做出计算和推断，然后做出选择。这就要求我们解题时，要在理解好题意的前提下去对与数据有关的信息认真分析，若数据信息较多，还要注意弄清数据之间的关系，同时分清有用与无用信息，最终作出正确判断。 （4）主旨大意题：此题用以考查我们对文章主题或中心思想的领会和理解能力。在解答此类试题时要注意每段的中心句，抓住每一段的主题句。一般主题句都用来表达一段主旨大意，因此，只要找准每段的主题句，文章的中心思想和文章的最佳标题也就不难确定了。

（英语）高三英语阅读理解专项训练及答案 一、高中英语阅读理解 1．阅读理解 The setting was a packed gymnasium just before the start of a game against another school. There were five girls who were members of the Danville High School basketball team—all of them starters. They were not in uniform to play that night and would not be on the team for the rest of this season. They were there to admit their breaking of team rules. They were there to support their coach's decision to take them off the team. They were there to let the town know there was a problem in their little community that needed to be addressed. And they did it with sincere regret rather than defensiveness. While the school had been out for the New Year's holiday, the five girls had gone to the party with several of their friends. There was alcohol there. And they all drank some. Coach Rainville has a zero tolerance rule on drugs and alcohol for her members though it was a hard decision to make. When classes resumed and accounts of holiday parties were shared, rumors about the five girls began closing in on them. The coach said she couldn't back down on her rules. And the players—two junior students and three senior students—agreed. That night in the gym was part of their public support of the coach's decision. “We hope you will understand that we are not bad kids. What we did was definitely not worth it. We hope this event will make everyone realize that there is a big drug and alcohol problem in our community,” one of the senior students said, “And if you work with us to try to solve this problem, you will help us feel that we have not been thrown off our basketball team for nothing.” The five left the floor to deafening applause. The team may not win another game this year. But they've learnt something about personal responsibility, the effect of one's action on others, and honesty that will serve them well throughout life. （1）It can be inferred from the passage that the five girls who were kicked off the team were ________. A. very good players on the team B. addicted to alcohol and drugs C. three junior students and two senior students D. scolded by their parents for drinking alcohol （2）What did the girls do to support their coach's decision? A. They didn't fight for Danville High School any more. B. They all gave speeches to apologize in the local press. C. They admitted their mistake in public in the gymnasium. D. They would never drink any alcohol throughout their life. （3）Which word best describes the coach Rainville? A. Indifferent. B. Strict. C. Stubborn. D. Cruel. （4）Which would be the best title for the passage? A. Growing up with pain B. A bad mistake C. Team rules are everything D. Basketball girls in high school 【答案】（1）A

高考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 Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is gaining global popularity. According to a government white paper, TCM has been introduced in 183 countries and regions around the world. Westerners' understanding of TCM, however, may be limited to acupuncture, cupping and massage(针灸，拔罐和按摩). For instance, the purple, injury-like marks left on U. S. swimmer Michael Phelps，back from cupping for the purpose of relaxing his muscles and reducing pain became the center of attention during the Rio Olympics in 2016. As a matter of fact, Chinese herbs play a more important role in getting rid of diseases and keeping the body in good condition in the TCM treatment system than physical treatment. It is therefore disheartening to know that while 103 World Health Organization member countries have given approval to the practice of acupuncture, not many recognize Chinese herbal medicine. TCM falls far behind Western medicine owing partly to the slow development of Chinese herbs. Herbs are made into pills, powder and soup, and the kind of herbs used, their quality and quantity, and the processing of the ingredients (原材料) jointly determine the effectiveness of the prescription. Compared with Western medicine, which has standardized drug production processes and treatment methods, TCM lacks standardization, with the chemical composition and functions of its medicines being unclear and their effects being unstable. Fortunately, standardization has improved in recent decades, with an increasing number of factories producing patented TCM drugs. Another factor that has prevented the development of TCM prescription drugs is the lack of creativity. While Western medicine-making companies come up with new products every year, TCM drug producers tend to make medicines according to prescriptions handed down from the past. Chinese chemist Tu Youyou's winning the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for her research into malaria (疟疾) treatment may drive creativity to some extent in China's TCM industry. However, the current state of affairs cannot be changed within a short time. （1）Why does the author mention the example of Michael Phelps? A. Because he was injured in his swimming. B. Because cupping is a kind of important TCM treatment. C. Because westerners know a little about TCM. D. Because westerners attach great importance to TCM. （2）Why don't some member countries of WHO recognize Chinese herbal medicine? A. Because Chinese herbs can get rid of diseases. B. Because they only approve the practice of acupuncture. C. Because Western medicine is more effective. D. Because medicine made out of Chinese herbs develops slowly. （3）Compared with Western medicine, what is the weak point of TCM in Paragraph 4? A. The methods of planting herbs. B. The effectiveness of prescription. C. Lacking in standardization. D. Its stable functions.
