河北省秦皇岛市卢龙县2016高考英语阅读理解含语法填空练习（5）Actually we have known a lot of examples and meaningful words to support the fact that we should try our best to ease the bad impression of others. Just like the old saying goes, we should give a better assumption to the one than we think he was. But many of us always fail to do this.Take the situation of my class for example. Right at the beginning of the first semester when we were freshmen we all showed great favor to each other. And when there was an activity that needed some people to join, we would be willing to attend whether it was interesting or not. And we were really like brothers and sisters, and our class was just like a family, a warm family. But now, I feel tired of those meaningless activities not only because of the boring activities themselves but also the cool response of our classmates.I think the reasons why the passion of most classmates is so low may be asfollows：To start with, many of us take part in more than one organization, which will certainly make us tired. Also, in the study fields, many of us may find that our courses are sometimes difficult to understand or comprehend, especially the specialized subjects.Moreover，“history” teaches us that if one does not study hard, it is poss ible to fail in the exams. So it is a big and good excuse to say that “I do really want to attend, but I have a lot of homework to do, so...”．Last but not least, some people believe that some of our leaders should not be regarded as a leader, maybe I should say we, as leaders, lost the reputation, support and trust of yours. At least I am the warm­hearted one, although I cannot promise you that your advice will be adopted surely, at least I will spare no effort to “give” you the right to be heard, a nd to serve you.Be active to show your talents and abilities and to create a better image of our class. Most important of all, work pains takingly for a better condition that we should have reached.【语篇解读】昔日热衷于参加各类活动的雀跃而又温馨的场面已成为美好的回忆，如今取而代之的是冷漠。

河北省秦皇岛市卢龙县2016高考英语阅读理解含语法填空练习（8）【2015高考复习】阅读理解In an ideal world，people would not test medicines on animals.Such experiments are stressful and sometimes painful for animals，and expensive and time­consuming for people.Yet animal experimentation is still needed to help bridge vast gaps in medical knowledge.That is why there are some 50 to 100 million animals used in research around the world each year.Europe，on the whole，has the world’s most restrictive laws on animal experiments.Even so，its scientists use some 12 million animals a year，most of them mice and rats，for medical research.Official statistics show that just 1.1 million animals are used in research in America each year.But that is misleading.The American authorities do not think mice and rats are worth counting and，as these are the most common laboratory animals，the true figure is much higher.Japan and China have even less comprehensive data than America.Now Europe is reforming the rules governing animal experiments by restricting the number of animals used in labs.Alternatives to animal testing，such as using human tissue or computer models，are now strongly recommended.In addition，sharing all research results freely should help to reduce the number of animals for scientific use.At present，scientists often share only the results of successful experiments.If their findings do not fit the hypothesis being tested，the work never sees the light of day.This practice means wasting time，money，and animals’ lives in endlessly repeating the failed experiments.Animal experimentation has taught humanity a great deal and saved countless lives.It needs to continue，even if that means animals sometimes suffer.Europe’s new measures should eventually both reduce the number of animals used in experiments and improve the way in which scientific research is conducted.【语篇解读】用动物进行试验被人们的舆论推向了风口浪尖，然而，受诸多因素的影响，终止动物试验的道路依然任重而道远。

One of my wonderful memories is about a Christmas gift. Unlike other gifts, it came without wrap(包装)．On September 11th, 1958, Mum gave birth to Richard. After she brought him home from hospital, she put him in my lap, saying, “I promised you a gift, and here it is. ”What an honor! I turned four a month earlier and none of my friends had such a baby doll of their own. I played with it day and night. I sang to it. I told it stories.

It had a fever. For several days, I heard Mum and Dad whispering such words as “hopeless”，“pitiful”，and “dying”， which sounded ominous.Christmas was coming. “Don't expect any presents this year，” Dad said, pointing at the socks I hung in the living room. “If your baby brother lives, that'll be Christmas enough.” As he spoke, his e yes filled with tears.

He's all right？” He hung up and shouted upstairs. “The hospital said we can bring Richard home！”“Thank God！” I heard Mum cry.From the upstairs window, I watched my parents rush out to the car. I had never seen them so happy. And I was also full of joy. What a wonderful day! My baby doll would be home. I ran downstairs. My socks still hung there flat.

Why should mankind explore space? Why should money, time and effort be spent exploring and researching something with so few apparent benefits? Why should resources be spent on space rather than on conditions and people on Earth? These are questions that, understandably, are very often asked.Perhaps the best answer lies in our genetic makeup(基因构成) as human beings. What drove our ancestors to move from the trees into the plains, and on into all possible areas and environments? The wider the spread of a species, the better its chance of survival. Perhaps the best reason for exploring space is this genetic tendency to expand wherever possible.Nearly every successful civilization has explored, because by doing so, any dangers in surrounding areas can be identified and prepared for. Without knowledge, we may be completely destroyed by the danger. With knowledge, we can lessen its effects. Exploration also allows minerals and other potential(潜在的) resources to be found. Even if we have no immediate need of them, they will perhaps be useful later. Resources may be more than physical possessions. Knowledge or techniques have been acquired through exploration. The techniques may have medical applications which can improve the length or quality of our lives. We have already benefited from other spin­offs including improvements in earthquake prediction, in satellites for weather forecasting and in communications systems. Even non­stick pans and mirrored sunglasses are by­products(副产品) of technological developments in the space industry!While many resources are spent on what seems a small return, the exploration of space allows creative, brave and intelligent members of our species to focus on what may serve to save us. While space may hold many wonders and explanations of how the universe was formed or how it works, it also holds dangers. The danger exists, but knowledge can help human beings to survive. Without the ability to reach out across space, the chance to save ourselves might not exist.While Earth is the only planet known to support life, surely the adaptive ability of humans would allow us to li ve on other planets. It is true that the lifestyle would be different, but human life and cultu res have adapted in the past and surely could in the future.本文是一篇议论文，向我们阐述了人类进行太空探索的原因。

河北省秦皇岛市卢龙县2016高考英语阅读理解含语法填空练习（4）Areas of Tokyo which had usually been packed with office workers like sushi(寿司) restaurants and noodle shops were unusually quiet. Many schools were closed. Companies allowed workers to stay home. Long queues formed at airports.As Japanese authorities struggled to avoid disaster at an earthquake­battered nuclear plant 240 km to the north, parts of Tokyo resembled a ghost town. Many people stocked up on food and stayed indoors or simply left, transforming one of the world's biggest and most populated cities into a shell of its usual self.“Look, it's like Sunday —no cars in town，” said Kazushi Arisawa, a 62­year­old taxi driver, as he waited for more than an hour outside an office tower where he usually finds customers wi thin minutes. “I can't make money today. ”Radiation in Tokyo has been negligible,_ briefly touching three times the normal rate on Tuesday, smaller than a dental X­ray. On Wednesday, winds over the Fukushima (福岛) nuclear­power plant blew out to sea, keeping levels close to normal. But that does little to relieve public anxiety about a 40­year­old nuclear plant with three reactors in partial meltdown (熔毁)and a fourth with spent atomic fuel exposed to the atmosphere after last Friday's earthquake and tsunami.“Radiation moves faster than we do，” said Steven Swanson, a 43­year­old American who moved to Tokyo in December with his Japanese wife to help with her family business.He is staying indoor but is tempted to leave.“It's scary.It's a triple threat w ith the earthquake, tsunami and the nuclear radiation leaks.It makes you wonder what's next. ”【语篇解读】本文主要介绍了日本的核辐射泄露对人们造成的影响。

河北省秦皇岛市卢龙县2016高考英语阅读理解含语法填空练习（1）Nowadays women appear to have a positive image of themselves as safer drivers than men.In a survey done for insurer MetLife,51% of women said they drive more safely.The evidence is on their side：Men are 3.4 times more likely than women to get a ticket for careless driving and 3.1 times as likely to be punished for drunk driving.“Women are on average less aggressive and more law abiding (守法的) drivers，which leads to fewer accidents，” the report says.However，not all male drivers share the same opinion.Of the men surveyed by MetLife,39% claimed male drivers were safer.The findings did back them up on one point：automotive knowledge.The report showed that more men are familiar with current safety equipment such as electronic stability control，which helps prevent rollover accidents.Auto safety unavoidably matters to Money.Insurance companies focus on what classes of drivers have the lowest dollar amounts of claims，and for now，that mainly includes women.In general，women pay about 9% less for auto insurance than men.A study by the website Insweb also showed that auto insurance rates are lower for women in most states.Among individual states，women get the greatest，advantage in Wyoming (where they pay 20% less)，South Dakota and Washington，D.C.，where their insurance costs are 16% lower.“More than 11,900 male drivers died in US traffic accidents in 2009，compared with just under 4,900 women drivers” according to the study.“Based on miles traveled，men died at a rate of 2.5 deaths per 100 million miles traveled，vs.1.7 deaths for women.”【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。

河北省秦皇岛市卢龙县2016高考英语阅读理解含语法填空练习（3）Former Irish President Mary Robinson was just making a polite conversation with an Ethiopian (埃塞俄比亚的) teenager about her wedding day.The 16­year­old had already been married for a year.“She looked at me with the saddest eye s and said，‘I had to drop out of school，’ ” Robinson said in a telephone interview.“That conveyed to me the reality，” said Robinson，the first woman to serve as Ireland’s president and former U．N.High Commissioner for Human Rights.“Her life，as far as she is concerned，had more or less ended.”Robinson said keeping girls in school was one of the most important things policymakers could do to address the coming challenges of an ever­increasing population，predicted by the United Nations to reach 7 billion soon.“European countries are concerned about aging populations，but this is much less of an issue than the huge number of people which we are going to see over the next 40 years when the population goes from 7 billion to 9 billion，”she said.“Almost all of that in crease will be in poor developing countries，so that we have a very big challenge.”Family planning experts worry in particular about the future population explosion in Sub­Saharan Africa.In May，the United Nations projected the world population would reach 9.3 billion in 2050 and 10.1 billion by 2100.Much of that growth will come from Africa，where the population is growing at 2.3 percent a year—more than double Asia’s 1 percent growth rate.If that rate stays consistent，which is not certain，Africa’s population will reach 3.6 billion by 2100 from the present 1 billion.Joel Cohen，a professor of population studies at Rockefeller University and Columbia University in New York，said universal secondary education offered a way to reduce population in high birth rate regions.In addition to providing information about birth control，a secondary education teaches women to reduce their own fertility，improve the health of their children and allows them to move from a mindset of having many children in the hope that some w ill survive to improve the quality of each child’s life，Cohen wrote in the journal Nature.【语篇解读】人口的快速增长困扰着世界。

“Old wives tales” are beliefs passed down from one generation to another, For example, most of us remember our patents’ telling us to eat more of certain foods or not to do certain things. Is there any truth in these teachings? Some of them agree with present medical thinking, but others have not passed the test of timeDid your mother ever tell you to eat your carrots because they are good for your eyes? Scientists now report that eating carrots can help prevent a serious eye disease called macular degeneration Eating just one carrot a day can reduce the possibility of getting this disease by 40%. Garlic（蒜）is good for you, too。

It can kill the type of virus that causes colds.Unfortunately, not all of Mom’s advice passed the test of medical studies.For example, generations of children have been told not to go swimming within an hour after eating. But research suggests that there is no danger in doing so. Do sweets cause tooth problems? Well, yes and no. sticky sweets made with grains tend to cause more problems than sweets made with simple sugars.Even though science can tell us that some of our traditional beliefs don’t hold water, there is still a lot of truth in the old wives’ tales, After all, much of this knowledge has been accumulated （积累）from thousands of our traditional beliefs don’t hold water should respect this body of knowledge even as research for clear scientific support to proven it true or false1.

The study –by thepublisher Pearson – found that many schoolsfear children have short attention spans andprefer to spend time online rather than reada novel.Teachers also said that books were not seenas “cool” by pupils and raised fears that parents are failing to do enough to promote a love of reading in the home. Frank Cottrell Boyce, the author, said: “It's worrying to think that so many young children are not being inspired to pick up a good book and get lost in a story.”According to UNESCO, the biggest single indicator of whether a child is going to thrive at school and in work is whether or not they read for pleasure. The poll questioned around 400 secondary school English teachers. Two-thirds of those questioned said that reading was not seen as "cool" by pupils, according to the study. Three-quarters said that children's attention spans were shorter than ever before, while 94 per cent claimed that pupils preferred to be using the internet rather than reading.The poll showed that teachers believe parents are not doing enough to help, with 97 per cent claiming mothers and fathers should be encouraging their child to read more. The findings also show that teachers believe that recent book and film series such as Twilight and The Hunger Games can fuel pupils' interest in reading.Some 83 per cent of teachers said that boys were likely to be engaged by fantasy novels, while 65 per cent said the same for girls.

河北省秦皇岛市卢龙县2016高考英语阅读理解含语法填空练习（2）Beginning college is exciting: new ideas to explore, new challenges to be met and many decisions to be made. Your future begins here.However, you will find college life is different from your previous school environment. Many of us can be easily overwhelmed(压垮) by the details of running a well-balanced life. While some of us may have the know-how, I guess there are more of us who can benefit from learning about the experiences of other who have walked the college halls before you.The following you may find of use about life on campus.1.Plan well. There are so many new things to do at a new college or university, social and academic(学术的). Give yourself time to make new friends and become familiar with the campus, but don’t fo rget why you are there. Give some time for social activities and manage your time wisely.2.If you don’t have a “system” for planning your time now (like a day time,a computer date book), get one. Most of all, don’t depend on your memory.3.Don’t miss the g uidelines, restrictions, rules and regulations of all kinds can usually be found in your student handbook. Consider them well-balanced food for thought. What dates are important? What pieces of paper need to be handed in? What can/can’t you do in your stud ent residence(住处)? Who has authority for what? What do you need to complete to graduate?4.Write the word “STUDY” on the walls of our bedroom and bathroom, and maybe it will help to write it on a piece of paper and stick it on the telephone, TV and the kitchen table. Consider this – you are paying thousands of dollars for courses. You pay every time you have to repeat or replace a course.1. What is the main purpose of the passage?A. To offer advice on college life.B. To explain why college life is exciting.C. To describe the importance of college life.D. To persuade you to go to college ]2. From the passage, we can know .A. one will have more freedom at collegeB. one will make more friends at collegeC. one prepares for one’s future career and life at collegeD. professors at college will provide you with many new ideas3. What is the probable meaning of the underlined word “know-how” (in Paragraph 2)?A. An understanding of how things are going at college.B. A practical knowledge about how to behave and what to do at college.C. College halls where rules and regulations are presented.D. An environment completely different from the one you’re used to.4.

河北省秦皇岛市卢龙县2016高考英语阅读理解含语法填空练习（7）【2015高考复习】阅读理解Research shows that childhood friendships are important indicators of future success and social adjustment.Children’s relationships with peers (同龄人) strongly influence their success in school，and children with fewer friends are more at risk of dropping out of school，becoming depressed and other problems.Making and Keeping Friends Is More than Child’s PlayWhen 6­year­old Rachel returned to school on a recent Monday morning，her eyes immediately scanned the playground for her friend Abbie.“Though they were only separated by a weekend，the girls ran right into each other’s arms and hugged，”recalls Rachel’s mother Kathryn Willis of Gilbert.“It was like a scene from a movie.”Most parents instinctively (本能地) know that having friends is good for their child.Experts agree that friendship is not simply child’s play，but a powerful predictor of social adjustment throughout life.A Skill for Life“Childhood friendships serve as a very important training ground for a dulthood，” says Dr.Robbie Adler­Tapia，psychologist with the Center for Children’s Health & Life Development at the East Valley Family Resource Center.Researcher William Hartup states，“Peer relations contribute significantly to both social and cognitive (认知的) development.” Hartup concludes that the single best childhood predictor of adult social adaptation is not school grades or classroom behavior，but rather，how well a child gets along with other children.The work of Arizona State University professor of Developmental Psychology Gary Ladd proves that just as being able to make and keep friends is beneficial to kids，so is the lack of friends detrimental.Good Friendships Don’t Just HappenExperts agree that it is essential for children to es tablish high­quality friendships.But，researchers warn，these friendships don’t necessarily just happen.Often，a good friendship begins with involved parents.Psychologist Dr.Lynne Kenney Markan believes kids should be taught social skills in much the same way they are taught math and reading.Bad CompanyMany parents worry about the quality as well as the quantity of their child’sfriendships.“When she was in 1st grade，her supposed ‘best friend’ began calling her names and threatening to hurt her，” says Mindy Miller.“My daughter wasn’t allowed to talk to or even look at other girls in her class.It really crushed her spirit.I told my daughter she didn’t need a ‘friend’ like that.”“I’ll bend over backwards to help my son get together with a friend I think is good for him，” Adler­Tapia says.“I don’t look at it as manipulation (操纵)，just positive parental involvement.”【语篇解读】研究表明，童年时期的友谊对孩子的将来有着非常重要的意义。

河北省卢龙县2014高考英语阅读理解自练题连载〔1〕与答案阅读理解Mr. Peter Johnson, aged twenty-three, battled for half an hour to escape from his trapped car yesterday when it landed upside down in three feet of water.
