Europe is now the biggest market for organic food in the world, having grown by 25
percent a year over the past 10 years. Denmark’s agriculture minister is herself an organic farmer. The UK market for organic food grew by 55 percent in 2000, while the food market as a whole grew by only one percent. Yet only seven percent of British shoppers account for nearly 60 percent of organic sales. However popular the idea of organic farming may be, it is still an interest for only a few people.
So what makes the idea of organic farming popular? Organic farming means farming with natural materials, rather than with man-made fertilizers or pesticides. Organic farmers rely on many methods — such as crop rotation (农作物的轮作) and the use of resistant（有抵抗力的）varieties, because they are necessary for organic farmers to compensate for
the shortage of man-made chemicals.
Organic farming is often supposed to be safer than traditional farming for the environment. Yet after a long research on organic farming worldwide for a number of years, science continues to be against this opinion. The House of Commons committee on agriculture publicized that, even with complete research work, it would fail to find any scientific evidence to prove “that any of claims （宣称）made for organic farming is always true”.
However, the talk about the benefits of organic farming is going on. This is partly because many people depend on their individual farm, the soil, the weather, and so on.
1. The first paragraph mainly tells us _____.
A. organic farming has been performed only in Europe over the past 10 years
B. governments of European countries have cared less about organic farming
C. organic farming is far from being as popular as expected
D. European countries need organic food more than the other countries in the world
2. The underlined words “compensate for” in the second paragraph probably mean “________”.
A. argue for
B. care for
C. struggle for
D. pay for
3. What can we know about organic farming?
A. It refers to farming with natural materials, instead of chemical fertilizers.
B. It refers to farming with chemical fertilizers rather than natural fertilizers.
C. It refers to farming with soil rather than any other thing.
D. It refers to growing crops with man-made fertilizers and pesticides.
4. According to the third paragraph, _____.
A. organic farming is safer than traditional farming for the environment
B. the idea that organic farming is safer has not been proven by science
C. orga nic farming is accepted by the UK’s House of Commons committee
D. organic farming is preferred to traditional farming
5. Which of the following is TRUE, according to the passage?
A. The UK’s agriculture minister is an organic farmer.
B. Organic farming is popular with young people.
C. Farmers make use of many different kinds of methods to improve the organic sales system.
D. Ninety-three percent of British shoppers don’t buy organic products.

I travel a lot in my work, and what I dislike about my job is eating alone. It always makes me feel lonely to see others laughing and talking. So, room service for several nights was a better choice for me.
After having room service three nights at a hotel in Houston, however, I needed to get out of my room. Although the restaurant opened at 6:30, I arrived at 6:25.

Early in the 16th century men were trying to reach Asia by traveling west from Europe. In order to find Asia they had to find a way past South America. The man who finally found the way from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific was Ferdinand Magellan (麦哲伦). Magellan sailed from Seville in August, 1519 with five ships and about 280 men. Fourteen months later, after spending the cold winter on the coast of Patagonia, he discovered the channel which is now called Magellan Strait (海峡). In November, 1520, after many months of dangers from rocks and storms, the three remaining ships entered the ocean on the other side of South America. They then continued, hoping to reach Asia. But they did not see any land until they reached the islands off the coast of Asia. Before they arrived at these islands, later known as the Philippines (菲律宾), men were dying of starvation (饥饿). While they were staying in the Philippines, Magellan was killed in battle. The remaining officers then had to get back to Spain. They decided to sail round Africa. After many difficulties, one ship with eighteen men sailed into Seville three years after leaving. They were all that remained of Magellan’s expedition. However, their achievement was great.

记叙文 记叙文的特点就是以记叙为主要表达方式，综合其他表达方式；以记人、叙事、写景、状物为主要内容；通过描述人物、时间及状物、写景来表达一定的中心。 记叙文是指记人、叙事、写景、状物等类的文章。古代的记、传、序、表、志等，现代的消息、通讯、简报、特写、传记、回忆录、游记等，都属于记叙文的范畴。 写作记叙文要做到一下几点： 第一，要交代明白。无论记人记事，还是写景状物，一般都要交代明白时间、地点、人物、事件、原因、结果，否则文章就不完整。 第二，线索清楚。虽然观察的角度、记述的方式可以不同，但每一篇文章都应当有一条绾联材料、统贯全篇的中心线索，否则文章就会松散。 第三，人称要一致。无论用第一人称“我”记述，还是用第三人称“他”记述，都要通篇一贯，一般不宜随意转换，否则就容易造成混乱。 记叙文以记叙为主，但往往也间有描写、抒情和议论，不可能有截然的划分。它是一种形式灵活、写法尽可能多样的文体。 记叙文,是以叙述为主要表达方式，以写人物的经历和事物发展变化为主要内容的一种文体。 说明文 说明文是以说明为主要表达方式来解说事物、阐明事理而给人知识的文章体裁。它通过揭示概念来说明事物特征、本质及其规律性。 说明文实用性很强，它包括广告、说明书、提要、提示、规则、章程、解说词、科学小品等。 说明文一般介绍事物的形状、构造、类别、关系、功能，解释事物的原理、含义、特点、演变等。 文艺性说明文是通过文艺的形式介绍科学知识的说明文。 说明文的特点是“说”，而且具有一定的知识性。这种知识，或者来自有关科学研究资料，或者是亲身实践、调查、考察的所得，都具有严格的科学性。为了要把事物说明白，就必须把握事物的特征，进而揭示出事物的本质属性，即不仅要说明“是什么”，还要说明“为什么”是这样。应用性说明文一般只要求说明事物的特征，阐述性说明文则必须揭示出问题的本源和实质。 说明文是客观地说明事物的一种文体，目的在于给人以知识：或说明事物的状态、性质、功能，或阐明事理。《中国石拱桥》属于前者，它以赵州桥和卢沟桥为例说明中国石拱桥“不但形式优美，而且结构坚固”的特征。《大自然的语言》属于后者，文章科学地说明了物候学知识。说明事物特点和阐明事理是说明文的两种类型。 议论文 议论文是对某个问题或某件事进行分析、评论，表明自己的观点、立场、态度、看法和主张的一种文体。议论文有三要素，即论点、论据和论证。 论点的基本要求是：观点正确，认真概括，有实际意义，恰当地综合运用各种表达方式；论据基本要求是：真实可靠，充分典型；论证的基本要求是：推理必须符合逻辑。 写议论文要考虑论点，考虑用什么作论据来证明它，怎样来论证，然后得出结论。它可以是先提出一个总论点，然后分别进行论述，分析各个分论点，最后得出结论；也可以先引述一个故事，一段对话，或描写一个场面，再一层一层地从事实分析出道理，归纳引申出一个新的结论。这种写法叫总分式，是中学生经常采用的一种作文方式。也可以在文章开头先提出一个人们关心的疑问，然后一一

（二） 掌心化雪 ①这是一个真实的故事。 ②她丑得名副其实，肤黑牙突，大嘴暴睛，神情怪异，好像还没发育好的类人猿，又像《西游记》里被孙悟空打死的那个鲇鱼怪。爸爸妈妈都不喜欢她，有了好吃的好玩的，也只给她漂亮的妹妹。她从来都生活在被忽略的角落。 ③在学校，丑女孩更是倍受歧视，坐在最后面，守着孤独的世界。有一回，班里最靓的女生和她在狭窄的走廊遇上，一脸鄙夷，小心翼翼地挨着墙走，生怕被她碰着，哪怕是衣角。丑女孩满怀愤懑，又无处诉说，回家躺在黑暗里咬牙切齿，酝酿复仇——她要买瓶硫酸，送给同班的靓女；甚至妹妹也要“变丑”，逼着父母学会一视同仁。 ④不是没有犹豫。她一直善良，碰见走失的猫狗都会照顾。于是，她蒙着纱巾，遮盖住丑陋的面孔，去见中科院心理研究所的老师。哪怕对方有丁点厌恶，都足以把她推下悬崖。 ⑤老师眼神明净，声音柔和，鼓励她解下纱巾。她踌躇地照做了。老师微笑着起身，走过来，轻轻拥抱住她。那一刻，陌生温暖的怀抱，化解了她身上的戾气，让她莫名落泪。从此，丑女孩一改阴郁仇视的眼神，微笑的她最终被父母、同学接受。 ⑥只需一个拥抱，就能改变一个人的一个小时、一天、一个月，乃至一生。 ⑦平凡的我们，都需要这样的爱，相互鼓舞慰藉。 ⑧记得有一次，我去医院看眼睛，被点了药水之后，刚才熟悉的世界陡然陷入黑暗。身外一片人声扰攘，脚步杂乱，我却战战兢兢不敢举步，恍惚只觉面前横亘万丈深渊。幸好有只手伸过来，轻轻把我送到长椅上坐定。这只陌生的手让我渐渐安心，心情坦然。 ⑨我的先生只是市井小人物，但是“无缘大慈，同体大悲”的精神，深入骨髓。他每月工资少得可怜，从不

You don’t need to care about those people who have beautiful houses with large gardens and swimming pools or those who have nice cars and a lot of money and so on. Why? Because those who have big houses may often feel lonely and those who have cars may want to walk on the country roads at their free time. In fact, happiness is always around you if you put your heart into it. When you are in trouble at school, your friends will help you; when you study hard at your lessons, your parents are always taking good care of your life and your health; when you get success, your friends will say congratulations to you; when you do something wrong, people around you will help you to correct it. And when you do something good to others, you will feel happy, too. All these are your happiness. If you notice them, you can see that happiness is always around you. Happiness is not the same as money. It is a feeling of your heart. When you are poor, you can also say you are very happy, because you have something else that can’t be bought with money. When you meet with difficulties, you can say loudly you are very happy, because you have more chances to challenge yourself. So you cannot always say you are poor and you have bad luck. As the saying goes, life is like a revolving(旋转) door. When it closes, it also opens. If you take every chance you get, you can be a happy and lucky person. 21．When you do something wrong, _______________. A. you may correct it

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 .

出来看看，闻闻麦子的味道，心里也会舒坦些。父亲的举动，让我觉得有种不可理喻的拙愚。 ⑤车里的乘客都上齐了，司机不耐烦地按着喇叭催促着我赶紧上车。我把麦子装进包里，对父亲说：阿大，你回去吧。你们不要担心，我到南方后会给你们常打电话的。 ⑥两天后我回到了南方的家里，打开包裹，随手就把那包麦子扔在阳台上。 ⑦时间久了，我也忘记了那包带着土腥的麦子。 或许是远离家乡的缘故，每到节假日，我总会莫名地感伤，尽管自己工作生活的环境比起高原的环境好多了，我总觉得心里缺少些什么。有段时间，由于俗世的牵绊，我的状态不是很好，困顿的时候常常给家里打电话。每次通完电话，父亲总要问他给我的麦子是否放好了，并提醒我把麦子拿出来经常晒晒，不要生霉。 有次通完电话，想起父亲的念叨，就从阳台上拿出那包麦子，在灯光下铺开。金黄的麦粒一粒一粒，仿佛一颗颗来自远方的眼睛，慈爱地盯着我。这黄，让我想起了父母亲土地一样的容颜，想起了故乡的大地上，那些埋头躬耕的人们。我捡起几颗麦子放在鼻子下嗅嗅，土腥里和着淡淡的麦香，是太阳的味道，土地的味道，也是父母的味道，有一种说不出的感觉。 顿时，我有想流泪的冲动，是感伤，亦是幸福。蜗居城市，我还能拥有一把来自故乡的麦子。 每一粒麦子里栖居着故乡。一粒粒麦子就是故乡的版图，弯曲
高中英语阅读理解练习1（共2篇） A Every American family has its own traditions on Thanksgiving Day, and mine is not different. Once the national holiday arrives, my mom rises early to make the meal. She puts a turkey in the oven, chops carrots and bakes pies. I'm sorry to say that the men in the family — my dad, my younger brother and myself — rarely pitch in to help. Our job is to wash the mountain of dirty dishes after the meal is over. Around 2 pm every Thanksgiving Day, family members seat themselves around the kitchen table. Plates of turkey, vegetables, salad, rolls and pies cover it. At this point, we can hardly keep ourselves from drooling (流口水) all over our fancy clothes, but it's not yet time to eat. First, we must bow our heads, close our eyes and say a prayer of thanks aloud to God for giving us everything we have. Under normal circumstances, I would have no problem making a list of things I am thankful for. I grew up in a loving family. My parents, who aren't wealthy, took out loans to help me pay for university. But, the funny thing is, every time I sit down for Thanksgiving dinner and try to say a prayer of thanks, my mind usually goes blank. I think it has something to do with my growling (咕咕叫) stomach and all of that food sitting right there under my nose. Eventually, though, we all finish our short prayers and dig_in.

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?
