北京英语高考阅读练习附答案北京英语高考阅读练习原文A Simple Lesson“Another bad day at school?” my father asked as I came into the room.“How could you tell? I didnt shut the door heavily or anything，”I replied. Over the past two months I had either done this or thrown my backpack across the room every time I came home from school. Papa thinks it has something to do with moving to a new house.“I know this move has been hard on you. Leaving your friends and cousins behind is tough，” Papa said, as he put his arm around my shoulder. “What you must remember is that, with a lot of hard work and some time, you will make new friends.”“You dont know how hard it is. This year my baseball team would have won the championship. They wont even give me a chance to pitch (投球) here. All I get to play is right field, and thats the worst!”Papa turned toward me. “Things will get better, I promise you. Let me ask you, do you know why you were named David Lorenzo?”“Yes, your name is David and grandfathers name is Lorenzo.”“Very good, and what makes your grandfather so important?”“He was the first in the family to come to this country and all that，”I answered.“That is only partly correct. Your grandfather was a very great man. In Mexico, he had been a teacher. When he came to America he could only get lowpaid labor jobs because he didnt speak the language. It took him two years before he spoke English well enough to be allowed to teach here, but he did it. He never complained because he knew change could be difficult. Did he ever tell you that?” my father asked.I looked down at my feet, ashamed at my behavior. “No. That must have been hard，” I said sheepishly.“Your grandfather taught me that if you let people see your talent, they will accept you for who you are. I want you to always remember what my father taught me, even if it takes a few years for people to see who you are，” said Papa.All I could say was, “Okay.” Then I asked, “What should I do now?”Laughing, Papa said, “How about you pitch a few to me? You need some work.”北京英语高考阅读练习题目1.Why was the author unhappy that day?A.Because he moved to a new country.B.Because his baseball team lost the game.C.Because he wasnt offered a chance to pitch.D.Because he quarreled with his friends at school.答案：C细节理解题。

北京市中关村中学最新高考英语阅读理解专题练习(及答案)一、高中英语阅读理解1．阅读理解Do you know that junk food isn't healthy? Of course you do! Do you eat it anyway? Of course you do! But a new study shows teaching adolescents about the ways food companies fool them into thinking junk food is cool can encourage kids to fight back—by eating healthier.The pull of junk food can be super-strong. It's designed to tasty; which makes eating well one of the great health challenges of our time. Everyone from doctors to the government has been trying to handle it. Yet we keep eating junk food.Professor Christopher Bryan says, "Food companies want you to want junk food." They spend millions of dollars coming up with new ways to^ promote junk food consumption. They hire scientists to make new junk food almost irresistible. They might do this, for example, by adding more sugar. Rats fed junk food for six weeks will even walk across a floor that gives them electric shocks just to get more of such food.Food ads often make unhealthy junk food seem healthy by featuring professional athletes, fit-looking pop stars and smiling, active teens. "We thought when the students learned this, it would matter to them," Bryan says. He worked with 8th graders at a Texas school. Half of them got a lesson Bryan created. It focused on the ways junk food is advertised, or marketed. A second group received lessons that focused on health. These lessons informed students junk food is had, and that foods like apples or carrots are a better choice. The students learned a bad diet can lead to major weight gain, and that being overweight puts people at risk for serious diseases. They also learned how eating well now can keep you healthy when you're older.After the lessons, the kids in both groups were asked how they felt about junk food. Most didn't have positive feelings about these unhealthy foods.（1）Why does the author mention the questions in paragraph 1?A. To express his doubts about junk food.B. To promote the idea of healthy eating.C. To describe the situation of junk food.D. To introduce the topic for discussion.（2）What remains a great health challenge to doctors?A. Making people do more exercise.B. Making people eat healthily.C. Making people lose weight.D. Making people prefer junk food.（3）What message does paragraph 3 mainly try to convey?A. What makes junk food almost impossible to resist.B. What influences junk food can have on consumers.C. How food companies try to get people to reach for junk food.D. Why food companies promote the consumption of junk food.（4）Which of the following words can best describe Bryan's lessons?A. Shocking.B. Popular.C. Effective.D. Abstract.【答案】（1）D（2）B（3）C（4）C【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，研究表明：让青少年了解食品公司的推销方式比单纯告诉他们垃圾食品的危害更能让他们选择健康的饮食。

北京市海淀区高考英语阅读理解训练（11）（含解析）（1）海淀区2015高考英语阅读理解训练（11）（答案）【2015高考复习】阅读理解Once when I was six years old，I saw an amazing picture in a book called True Stories from Nature about the primeval forest.It was a picture of a boa constrictor(大蟒蛇) in the act of swallowing an animal.In the book it said：“Boa constrictors swallow their prey wholly without chewing it.After that they are not able to move and they sleep through the six months that they ne ed for digestion.”I thought deeply then over the adventures of the jungle.And after some work witha colored pencil，I succeeded in making my first drawing，my Drawing Number One.I showed my work to the grown-ups and asked them whether the drawing frightened them.But they answered: “Frighten? Why should anyone be frightened by a hat？”My drawing was not a picture of a hat.It was a picture of a boa constrictor digesting an elephant.But since the grown-ups were not able to understand it，I made another drawing.I drew the inside of the boa constrictor so that the grown-ups could see it clearly.They always need to have things explained.That's my Drawing Number Two.The grown-ups' response this time was to advise me to lay aside my drawings of boa constrictors whether from the inside or the outside and devote myself instead to geography，history，arithmetic and grammar.That is why at the age of six I gave up the dream that I might have been a great painter.I had been disheartened by the failure of my Drawing Number One and myDrawing Number Two.Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.So then I chose another profession and learned to pilot airplanes.I have flown a little over all parts of the world，and it is true that geography has been very useful to me.At a glance，I can distinguish China from Ar izona.If one gets lost in the night，such knowledge is valuable.In the course of this life，I have had lots of chances to meet with a great many people.And that hasn't much improved my opinion of them.Whenever I met one of them who seemed to me at all cl ear-sighted，I tried showing him my Drawing Number One which I have always kept.I would try to find out if this was a person of true understanding.But whoever it was，he or she would always say: That is a hat.Then I would never talk to that person about boa constrictors or primeval forests or stars.I would bring myself down to his level.I would talk to him about bridge，golf，politicsand neckties.And the grown-up would be greatly pleased to have met such an intelligent man.【语篇导读】作者的两幅画一直都得不到人们的真正理解，他感到非常困惑，希望能遇到一个理解自己的人，但希望总是落空。

北京市海淀区清华大学附属中学2021年高中英语阅读理解专项训练专题复习及答案一、高考英语阅读理解专项训练1．阅读理解Effective Friday, Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (SAG-AFTRA) has declared a strike against 11 video game publishers over games that went into production after Feb. 17, 2015. The companies include some of the heavyweights of the industry, like Electronic Arts Productions, Insomniac Games, Activision and Disney.The strike comes in light of an unsuccessful 19 months of negotiations after the existing labor contract known as the Interactive Media Agreement expired in late 2014. Overall, the strike is an effort to provide more secondary compensation along with other concerns, such as transparency upon hiring talent and on-set (制作中) safety precautions.The video gaming industry has ballooned in recent years. The Los Angeles Times reports that the industry is in the midst of an intense increase in cash flow. In 2015, gaming produced $23.5 billion in domestic revenue.But SAG-AFTRA says voice actors don't receive residuals (追加酬金) for their gaming work. Instead, they receive a fixed rate, which is typically about $825 for a standard four-hour vocal session. So the voice actors are pushing for the idea of secondary compensation—a performance bonus every time a game sells 2 million copies or downloads, or reaches 2 million subscribers, with a cap at 8 million."It's a very small number of games that would trigger this secondary compensation issue," said voice actor Crispin Freeman, who's a member of the union's negotiating committee. "This is an important aspect of what it means to be a freelance (从事自由职业的) performer, who isn't regularly enjoyed every single day working on projects."Another major complaint from the actors is the secrecy of the industry. "I can't imagine if there's any other acting job in the world where you don't know what show you're in, when you're hired," says voice actor Keythe Farley, who chairs the SAG-AFTRA negotiating committee."And yet that happens every day in the video game world," Farley told reporters during a press conference Friday. "I was a main character in Fallout 4, a character by the name of Kellogg, and I never knew that I was doing vocal recording for that game throughout the year and a half."Scott Witlin, the lawyer representing the video game companies, says voice actors "represent less than one tenth of l percent of the work that goes into making a video game." So "even though they're the top craftsmen in their field," Witlin says, "if we pay them under a vastly different system than the people who do the 99.9 percent of the work, that's going to create far more problems for the video game companies."（1）Why did SAG-AFTRA declare a strike against some video game publishers?A. It had been cheated repeatedly in the 19 months of talks.B. The labor contract between them had been violated.C. The negotiations between them had broken down.D. Its appeal to renegotiate the contract had been rejected.（2）What do we learn from the passage about the video gaming industry?A. It has invested a lot in its domestic market.B. It has attracted many famous voice actors.C. It has become more open and transparent.D. It has gained huge profits in recent years.（3）What are the voice actors demanding?A. Extra pay based on sales revenues.B. A non-discriminatory contract.C. A limit on the maximum work hours.D. More regular employment.（4）What does Keythe Farley say about voice actors?A. They are not paid on a regular basis.B. They are kept in the dark about many details of their job.C. They are discriminated against in the gaming industry.D. They are not employed full-time.（5）What is the argument of lawyer Scott Witlin?A. Changing the pay system would cause the industry more problems.B. Paying voice actors on an hourly basis is in fine with the law.C. Voice actors should have a pay raise if they prove to be top craftsmen.D. Voice actors are mere craftsmen, not professional performers.【答案】（1）C（2）D（3）A（4）B（5）A【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，美国演员工会针对配音演员酬劳协商无果的问题进行了罢工。
