What is intelligence anyway? When I was in the army I 36 an intelligence test that all soldiers took, and, against 37 of 100, scored 160.
I had an auto-repair man once, who, on these intelligence tests, could not

三、【2020届·重庆八中高三第二次月考】阅读理解（共20小题；每小题2分,满分40分）
请阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项的标号涂黑。
A
I really hadn't meant to yell（吼叫）at them. But that grey afternoon saw it just as my son and daughter were making a terrible mess on the floor in the kitchen.
With a tiresome report to write, I felt bothered at my desk. Suddenly, it occurred to me that my kids were at fault. A voice inside me insisted that I do something quickly.
“OK, you two here, but what an awful thing you are attempting!”shouting angrily, I made for them, while it became evident that the boy wanted no part
of me. “Get away from us!”he shouted back, there being expression of support from his sister.
All of a sudden, I found the fault in myself. Quickly I shaped my hands into pincers（螃蟹螯）and crawled towards them, “Crabby（似螃蟹的）Daddy is here Ha, Ha, Ha, he likes to yell at children, and then eat them!”My son continued to keep me away, but now he was laughing and crying at the same time. My mission to repair the damage caused by my yelling seemed to work well. Still, I regretted not having controlled myself first in a right way that my children could do after.
Need I let them know how badly they were acting by blaming? This is a lesson that serves myself. It only shows just how to get rid of something （ill-feelings, responsibility）by blaming others. It's not my “best self”.
We have to search for our “best self”when with our children. They don't need perfect parents, but they do need parents who are always trying to get better. Here, I'm reminded of the words of a great thinker, “When a man lives with God, his voice shall be as sweet as the murmur of the brook…”Then, in our lifetime, couldn't we always speak to our kids in such a sweet voice since, most of us consider them as the most precious in the world? And before we reach this level, what should we do when we come across various difficult cases with our children?
56. The author couldn't help yelling at his kids this time probably
because_____________.
A. the weather was so unpleasant
B. a Daddy has his right to do so
C. the kids didn't ask him to join them
D. he was tired of his boring work
57. Which of the following made the author aware of his fault?
A. No obvious reason.
B. The children’s reaction.
C. His self-control.
D. The mess made by the children.
58. According to the passage the author will _____________in another similar situation.
A. play a crab again like this time
B. apologize to kids in a sincere way
C. avoid blaming kids in a hurry
D. beat them up about such things
59. What will the writer go on to write about in the next paragraph(s)?
A. How to behave ourselves properly when kids are at fault.
B. How to blame our children in a more interesting way.
C. How to deal with the terrible mess made by our kids.
D. How to persuade children to do what they are told to.

When you are far away from home for the first time and have a lot to adjust to, you can't do it alone. However independent you are, it is good to have a roommate during your first year.
Living with someone helps ease your loneliness. Sure it may seem appealing to be able to play your music and turn up your TV as loud as you want, but coming home to an empty room every day can be depressing. If you
have a bad day, you may want to talk to someone.
Friends are great sources of venting (宣泄), but friends can't always be there. Even worse, they may be self-centered and show no interest in your problem. It's not that roommates aren't like this, but even just small talk can help you feel better.
Having a roommate teaches you how to get along with people and settle conflict. You two should set up rules immediately and discuss what to do when there is conflict. If you two don't like each other, you still study, relax, and sleep in the same room. You must find a way to get along.
Finally, having a roommate exposes (使接触) you to different ways of living. Your roommate may come from a different city, and have different living habits. He or she also has different interests and personalities. You don't have to end up liking the same things your roommate does, but try to learn something different. You will be surrounded by many different people in college and have the chance to try things you never have before. Why not start learning from your roommate?
Having a roommate gives you the skills and personal background you will need to utilize (利用) when you are out on your own. Make the most of living with a stranger and besides, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to have your own room later in your college years.
64. Who are probably the intended readers of the passage?
A. University teachers.
B. Students who are not independent.
C. Students in the first year of college.

B. compare friends with roommates
C. encourage students to find a roommate
D. state the different ways of living

There are two basic ways to see growth: one as a product, the other as a process. People have generally viewed personal growth as an external result or a product that can easily be identified and measured. The worker who gets a rise, the student whose grades improve, the foreigner who learns a new language—all these examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts.
By contrast, the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine, since it is a journey and not the specific signposts or landmarks along the way. The process is not the road itself, but the attitudes, feelings people have, and their caution or courage, as they meet with new experiences and unexpected difficulties. In this process, the journey never really ends；there are always new ways to experience the world, new ideas to try, new challenges to accept.
In order to grow, to travel new roads, people need to have a willingness to take risks, to face the unknown, and to accept the possibility that they may “fail”at first. How we see ourselves as we try a new way of being is necessary for our ability to grow. Do we see ourselves as quick and curious? If so, we tend to take more chances and be more open to unfamiliar experiences. Do we think we’re shy and indecisive? Then our sense of fear can cause us to hesitate, to move slowly, and we think we are slow to adapt to change or that we’re not smart enough to deal with a new challenge. Then we are likely to take a more passive role or not try at all.
These feelings of insecurity and self-doubt are both unavoidable and necessary if we are to change and grow. If we protect ourselves too much, then we stop growing. We become trapped inside a shell of our own making.
68. In the author’s eye, one who views personal growth as a process would _____________.
A. succeed in climbing up the social ladder
B. grow up from his own achievements
C. face difficulties and take up challenges
D. aim high and reach his goal each time
69. Which of the following can be viewed as the process of personal growing?
A. Our manager was always willing to accept new challenges.
B. Jane won the first prize in the speech competition.
C. Jerry picked up French during his stay in Paris.
D. Father’s salary rose from 5, 000 to 7,000.
70. For personal growth, the author is in favor of all the following EXCEPT _____________.
A. being curious about more changes
B. being quick in self-adaptation
C. having an open mind to new experiences
D. staying away from failures and challenges
71. The best title for this passage should be _____________.
A. Facing New Challenges
B. Growth—Product or Process
C. Two Basic Ways of Growth
D. Overcoming Internal Fears

LONDON: What could possibly be wrong with planting trees? The benefits are obvious; they firm the soil, soak up (摄取) extra water and take carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) out of the atmosphere.
However, it now turns out that planting trees could add to global warming.
Tree roots do a great job of keeping soil firmly on the ground and out of the wind’s power. The problem is that some of those dust clouds play an important part in soaking up carbon dioxide.
Huge dust storms blow out over the oceans from dry parts of North Africa and central Asia. Tons of dust are lifted and left as a thin film over the ocean surface. The dust fuels oceanic life.
Dust from China is carried east and left in the Pacific Ocean. If a tree-planting programme there is successful and the dust supply reduced, the net result may be that less carbon dioxide gets locked away in the ocean.
Andy Ridgwell, an environmental scientist from the University of East Anglia, has spent the past few years studying dust and says his work “shows clearly the complexity of the system and the importance of not tinkering(粗劣地修补) with it without understanding the results. For this reason the need is to focus(集中) on cutting carbon dioxide giving off rather than monkeying (瞎弄) about with the land surface.”
An American scientist, Robert Jackson, has shown that when native grassland areas are invaded(侵入) by trees, carbon is lost from the soil. “We are studying why the soil carbon disappears, but one theory is that trees do a lot more of their growing above ground compared to grasses, so less carbon goes directly into the soil from trees, ”says Jackson.
In wet areas of the world, the gain from trees absorbing carbon dioxide above ground seems to be outweighed(超过) by the loss of carbon from the soil below ground. Countries that plan to combat global warming by planting trees may have to think again.
Solutions to environmental problems are often more complex than they first appear, and understanding the Earth’s climate is a very great challenge.
72. People usually hold the opinion that_____________.
A. huge dust storms can destroy carbon dioxide
B. huge dust storms can destroy the oceans on the earth
C. huge dust storms can’t do anything beneficial for man
D. planting trees is the only way to control huge dust storms
73. Andy Ridgwell, the environmental scientist, believes that_____________.
A. dust plays a more important part than trees
B. trees shouldn’t have been planted in dry places
C. carbon dioxide is harmful to everything on the earth
D. environmental problems are more complex than expected
74. Robert Jackson’s experiment proves that_____________.
A. grassland areas should be covered by forests
B. trees hold more carbon than grasses
C. carbon can turn grass into dust
D. less carbon can make trees grow faster
75. The underlined word “combat”in the last paragraph means_____________.
A. learn about
B. fight against
C. live with
D. give up

2014年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试（重庆卷） 英语答案解析 一、单项填空 1.【答案】C 【解析】本题的是代词辨析。anything任何事情；something某些事情，重要人物；nothing什么也没有，没有事情；everything所有的事情。句意：微笑不要我们花任何东西，但是却会给我们很多。本题中的关键词是but说明上下文之间是转折关系，所选之词要和后面的much表示相反的意思。故C正确。 【考点】代词辨析。 2.【答案】B 【解析】本题的是交际用语。A没关系（用来回答对方的道歉）；B我很高兴要做某事…（后面常常和but 连用，表示委婉地拒绝）；C遇见你很高兴；D我找不到任何理由。句意：—为什么不在这里多待一会?—我想多待一会，可是我真的必须得走了。本句的关键词是but，说明本句表示的是委婉地拒绝对方。同时在to 后面省略了stay here a little longer。故B正确。 【考点】交际用语。 3.【答案】C 【解析】本题的是情态动词意义辨析。Can’t不可能；做不到；dare not不敢；needn’t 不必；may not也许不；句意：我已经点了一些披萨，所以当我们很累地到家的使用，不必担心做饭的问题。Need既可以作为情态动词，也可以作为行为动词。当它作为情态动词的使用常常用于疑问句和否定句中，表示“不必”。根据句意说明C正确。 【考点】情态动词。 4.【答案】A 【解析】本题的是时态题中的一个常考的用法。在时间状语从句和条件状语从句中，常常使用一般现在时代替将来时。本句中的连词before引导的就是一个时间状语从句，所以使用一般现在时代替将来时。句意：在你忘记之前最好把他的电话号码写下来。故A正确。 【考点】时态。 5.【答案】B 【解析】本题的是非谓语动词中分词做定语的用法。本句中的动词return与前面的名词cameras构成逻辑上的被动关系，所以使用过去分词短语在句中做定语来修饰cameras，从语法作用上来说相当于一个定语从句which are returned…。D项中使用的是不定式的被动形式，表示的将来要发生的事情。句意：这位生产商经
